Episode Transcript
0:00We did not get many good pieces of news today. So, first things first, obviously we talked about Joe Mixon with the
0:08waiverwire video and we were saying, "Oh, okay. Well, he's getting signed to the practice squad. Maybe he's interesting over the next two to three
0:14weeks." Well, uh, scratch all that. Joe Mixon is not getting signed to Seattle.
0:21They brought him in for a physical and they went, "Yeah, I guess this dude blew off his foot. He really shot it." So,
0:28um, no longer do you have the option to look at mixing off the waiverwire.
0:33Instead, Emanuel Wilson will be your priority pickup in Seattle if he is already not added. Now, going over to
0:42where we stand with the Eagles. Bad vibes all around. We are told that Saquon Barkley is going to be missing weeks. Then you sprinkle on the fact
0:53that their allp pro right tackle just said, "You know what? I've had enough.
0:58I'm out. See you later." So very concerning that we have in Philly. It seems like it gets worse every single day here. And then going over to Lamar
1:09Jackson. Lamar Jackson is dealing with a sprained ankle that gives him only an outside chance to play on Sunday versus the Atlanta Falcons. I'll pull this up.
1:19I mean, again, y'all know I'm of the opinion that the markets are the most accurate thing that we can look at, and
1:24they're telling us right now, Lamar ain't playing. Um, Jackson could end up missing multiple games based on how rehab goes, but his injury is not
1:32considered long-term or surgical. So, he's not missing this season, that's for damn sure. But, we're already getting prepped that he's going to be missing
1:42multiple games. And what I'm most concerned about with Lamar is what we saw when he had a lower body injury last
1:48year. And I'll just confirm with y'all real quick is one of the best things in my mind that we have in terms of access
1:55to real data that changes over time when this type of news comes out. And that is going to be the markets on Polyarketus
2:05US. Let me pull those up. And let me also pull up flockfantasy.com so I can show you what we had with Lamar and the
2:13games he came back after his injury. So with Lamar, remember last year it wasn't an ankle. I believe it was a hamstring,
2:21but he missed um only a handful of games.
2:27He came back and he just simply was not the same guy that he was at any other point in his NFL career. So Lamar
2:35Jackson last season also got injured in week four against the Kansas City Chiefs. So it's the same setup that you have this year. Obviously him getting
2:46injured in week four as well. And he came back after missing three weeks. And once he came back Lamar Jackson put up
2:552516476 2144. Now of course I'm not saying that this is guaranteed to be the case this season. And of course, I'm not coming
3:04through and saying that Lamar Jackson is for sure no longer going to be a starting quarterback at any point this year. I will be honest with y'all. I
3:12moved him down my rankings a bit. I had him at QB2 before this ankle injury and now I have him a little bit closer to I
3:18think QB4 and a tier with a considerable amount of other guys. But my big thing that I'm worried about is him coming
3:27back in us seeing a repeat of last year and that we do not get the elite athleticism with a lower body injury.
3:37And while Lamar Jackson has a very good arm, what makes him a super special quarterback is his ability to move is
3:45how defensive coordinators have to scheme against him being able to run the ball so effectively. And again, if you all wanted to just see the real market
3:52data, um, right now the Ravens have a 39% chance of beating the Atlanta Falcons this week, that was up at 73%
4:02before the Lamar Jackson injury. So, I think it's pretty safe to assume that Lamar ain't playing this week. Not only is he not playing, but again, I would
4:13assume that he may actually miss a decent amount of time here. Now, let's go over and pull up some of your fantasy
4:21football questions that you all have.
4:24And I'll remind you, of course, if you have not done so already, um, make sure you go check out those markets on Poly
4:30Market US. Links in the description, comment section, live chat. Code Flock gets you $25 added to your account after you deposit your first 10. Available in
4:39every state outside of Nevada. Now, I'm not going to be answering any start set questions on Tuesday. I'll be completely honest with y'all on that. Um, just in
4:50general, I haven't even looked at the matchups for this week, so I'm not going to be much help at all. Here, Jesus is
4:56asking, "Would we rather have DeAndre Swift or Saquon Barkley?" At this point, I would rather have DeAndre Swift over Barkley with Lane Johnson retiring. And
5:04on top of this, us getting word that Saquon Barkley is week to week. He's not dayto-day. So Barkley is going to be
5:12missing some time. Give me DeAndre Swift. Super concerned about the Eagles at the moment.
5:19Now Macy KD here trading away Quinn Sean Judkins and a second
5:28for Nico Collins. This is a dynasty league and I honestly think that it's pretty damn simple. If you're in a spot in
5:38which I don't know, you need a win right now, you go ahead and you take Nico. You are labeled as a strong contender here,
5:46especially if you are confident that this is going to be a second round pick.
5:51Now, YG Serge trading away Cam Scataboo for Amari and Hampton. Man, Amari and Hampton played 35% of the snaps this past week for the Los Angeles Chargers.
6:03And the Chargers may straight up be a worse offense than what you have with the New York Giants. I think the Giants
6:11are going to be a bad offense, don't get me wrong, but yeah, here I think you have to go scat.
6:18Now, our next trade question that we are going to have, it's from Jack says, "Hey Mason, I'd rather have Puka and JSN, but
6:26have Brown and Chuba. I can choose from Shucker Burrow. Would like to hear your thoughts. If you're gonna get somebody in this deal, I would say that I would
6:34prefer getting Burrow over Tyler Shuck.
6:37So looking at this, you're down tiering from Josh Allen to Joe Burrow. You are up tiering from Henry to JSN and up
6:47tiering from Pickkins to Chuba Hubard.
6:51This is a very fair question and this is a very interesting one as well. I would say that honestly I'm not going to fault
6:58you at all if you go through and do this. A lot of it's going to come down to if Chuba can hold on to this volume
7:07through the rest of the season. If Jonathan Brooks comes in in a few weeks and turns this a little bit more into a
7:13running back by committee where Chubbert isn't seeing literally every single touch out of this backfield, then at that point I would maybe be a little bit
7:21concerned about this trade. But I mean, it's tough to assume that Brooks is going to be anything at all at this
7:28point. So, I would probably go ahead and take the JSN, Joe Burrow, and Chuba Hubard side. Um, I'll be on record real
7:38quick though that this week may be a little bit of a tough week with Burrow.
7:42Um, he's probably not going to have Tigens and at the same time there's obviously a chance in which he also does
7:48not have Jamar Chase. So, very fair question. I think I go the JSN side, but I'm not exactly sure to be honest with
7:56you. But again, I do want to put a slight just a slight discount on the Baltimore Ravens right now. Again, given
8:03the uncertainty that we have surrounding Lamar Bitter Hornet, always happy to see us. Hey, Mason. Finally got the dub one and three. We traded away Genty
8:12Washington for Javvante KD. I mean, obviously, uh, last week that was a very good move for you to have made. And my
8:21trades have been Saquon for Genty, then flipped him for Debo Mason for and flipped Debo Mason for Tuton Pit. Man, you are freaking crushing it. You're
8:30looking to flip Tucker Craft. So Tucker Craft obviously had a pretty damn good week this past week.
8:37Let me go through and see where our team most likely stands right now. Okay, so we are the fourth team in the league
8:45analyzer. We are currently sitting at 1 and three, but again, rest of season after the trades that you've made, you're probably in a much better spot
8:53than you were previously. Now, for me, I would say that Tyler Algier and Brian Robinson are players that I probably would rather have over Keenan Allen. I
9:04know Keenan had the one good week against Houston three weeks ago, but still not a massive believer in the upside for Keenan. And if I'm looking at
9:13what we have with um if I'm looking at what we get with like
9:27Tyler Algier and Brian Robinson, one right now Jeremiah Love may be a little bit banged up and two like with Brian Robinson if
9:40Bejon were to get injured which obviously Hopefully he does not, but if that were to occur, pretty safe to say that Brian Robinson's
9:52a league winner.
10:15Yeah. So, I would cut Keenan. I would pick up one of the handcuffed running backs.
10:21Then, in terms of what we'd be doing with Craft, I actually do have Z Flowers in my sell high video that comes out
10:28tomorrow.
10:31Again, I am a little bit concerned about what we have with the Lamar Jackson situation and if this offense may be
10:39really ugly here in the short term. So, if you were going to be trying to sell high on Craft while we have KD, I
10:46wouldn't fault you at all for trying to package together the combination of Craft as well as Z Flowers and see if
10:54you can get yourself to a true elite level wide receiver.
11:00which Flowers looks really good. Don't get me wrong. Not trying to talk down on say Flowers, but like there is a chance
11:07that you could get somebody extremely high here.
11:13So, let me go through and look at teams that may want a better tight end. This team has Kyle Pittz as their tight ends.
11:23In terms of like Flowers, Pivots, like
11:30it would be interesting to go from craft flowers and see if we can get back Nico in a smaller piece like Kyle
11:41Manungi. I think that would be very interesting again given the uncertainty that you potentially have with Lamar.
11:50This team here has Dallas GD Britain Strange as their tight ends.
11:55They have Justin Jefferson as well. I would be interested in seeing if we could sell the combination of Flowers and Craft for Jefferson. Now, full
12:04transparency, um, Zay Flowers is ranked ahead of Justin Jefferson by a lot of the experts on the site. And honestly, I
12:13would probably agree with them if Lamar Jackson was fully healthy and we didn't have to be concerned about Lamar Jackson's ankle bothering him through
12:22the rest of the year.
12:24But here at this point, this seems like a really strong spot to
12:39be in for a Jefferson trade. Jefferson may miss one more week, then he has the by-week afterwards and then should be
12:46100%.
12:48But that is what I would do. Obviously, it's incredibly tough to tell anybody to trade away Z Flowers. The man has been a
12:58monster. I have him ranked as a top 10 wide receiver rest of season. I just personally would be interested again if
13:05there were to be a way that we could go through and pivot over to a different top 10 wide receiver that maybe is not
13:11dealing with a quarterback injury.
13:16But I really appreciate you and hope I was able to help you out in some way with this, man. And let me make sure you
13:22have additional free trade questions because again, trading up player of the caliber of Z Flowers is very, very serious.
13:30Now, let me go over and get to this next one, which is going to be from Zony.
13:38Trading away Rasheed Rice for Bree Hall.
13:42I personally would do this on the vast majority of teams. I'll say you don't necessarily need a running back, but yeah, I personally would still most
13:50likely go through and make this move.
13:54Now, our next one here from Imrech Trading away Debo Samuel
14:07for Lad McConi.
14:10Here's the deal. Lad is injured and he's in a much much worse offense as well.
14:21So for me, I think I would prefer Debo Samuel over Lad Mani at this point. Chat, can y'all
14:32let me know? Am I being an idiot here?
14:38And ooh, should we be concerned with the Tyreek legal issues that came out today?
14:43Let me go ahead and pull that up. I didn't see any Tyreek Hill stuff, but who would you rather have? Please let me
14:48know in the chat. Would you rather have Debo Samuel or Lad Mcconi?
14:57So, the Tyreek Hill stuff, I don't see any Tyreek Hill legal stuff coming out.
15:08Oh, no. I Okay, I see it from somebody now. I get don't know why none of the big accounts are reporting on it. During
15:15civil trial today, Tyreek Hill's ex-wife accused him of attempting a punch at her stomach while she was pregnant with a child in July 2024. Lita said she put
15:26her hands on her stomach to block the strike, which made contact with her hands. She said Tyreek told her Okay.
15:35Um, that is very, very sad. Honestly, again, I don't see any of the major media sources reporting on it, but if
15:46they start picking it up and it's something that everybody is talking about, then at that point, a team to bring him in would have to be
15:56willing to take on a ton of crap that they're probably not willing to do. So, it definitely is something to be aware
16:04of. And thank you for even bringing that up to me. I didn't even know.
16:09Okay, so we have Debo Lad Debo Debo Lad Debo Lad Debo Lad. So
16:19it looks like it's split 5050 on Debo Samuel verse Lad McConi. Again, not going to fault you at all for going lad
16:26there. Um, I am just very concerned about the Chargers offense and I don't necessarily know if it's going to be getting any better.
16:35Okay, so our next questions coming out from No Grit, No Glory says, "I'll be three and one after this
16:46week despite having a terrible running back room. Any suggestions to improve at running back or any other changes we should make?" So yeah, your running back
16:55room is horrific, man.
16:59I mean, right now we have David McGomery as our running back. one Blake Cororm, Brilan Allen, EMTT Johnson as our other
17:06guys. The big thing that needs to happen is you need to find a way to hit on one of these running backs off the waiver
17:14wire. You have to find a way to get free value here. Now, I will say this is a two wide receiver, one flex format. So
17:24with this being a two wide receiver, one flex league, realistically like you don't need a ton of wide receiver
17:38depth and you have the elite quarterback with Josh Allen. You have the elite tight end with Brock Bowers. So, I think the very
17:47easy thing to say with your current roster is you should be going out of your way and you should be trying to
17:53roster as many running backs on your bench as you can possibly get. That way, you can find the next like Alvin Kamara,
18:01right? Somebody that pops up due to an injury that you can start and you desperately need starts here, which I'm in a very similar boat, man. I
18:10mean, my running back too is horrendous to say the least. So, um, going over and looking at your waiver wire, like here's the thing. You
18:21are just going to get bailed out for literally free.
18:26You can pick up Travis ETN off waiverss for free. Travis TN will be back in week nine and there's a damn good chance that
18:36you would start him on a team of this caliber.
18:41going over and looking at Jordan Mason.
18:44Jordan Mason has a damn good chance to be back in week seven after the by-week here for this team. So, I would say
18:53something very similar here that man, picking up Jordan Mason kind of bails you out.
19:00So, I would treat this very simply.
19:04I would want to cut Jell Robinson.
19:09Cut Devon Vle, pick up Travis ETN, pick up Jordan Mason, bolster the running back depth that you have on this roster. You're
19:19still going to get to start Tedo and McMillan, Malik Neighbors, Michael Wilson every single week. You're about to get back in Jaylen Coker. You're
19:27about to get back in Jordan Tyson. So, like you already have plenty of depth at the wide receiver position.
19:36So, yeah, I would just go through I would just make this very simple. I think you want to cut those two bottom
19:44in wide receivers. I think you want to go pick up those running backs off the waiver wire for free. Now, maybe if you
19:51had a much worse record, right? I mean, maybe if you were in a spot in which, I don't know, you were one and three
20:00instead of being three and one, then at that point it would be very advantageous for us to go ahead and for us to make a trade to get some
20:11running back points in right now. But you being three and one makes it where you're not going to have to stress.
20:16You're not going to need to go out there and um make a trade right this second. You
20:28can let these running backs come make a difference on your roster for completely free. But I really appreciate you and hope I was able to help you out in some
20:35way with this man.
20:38Now Narles with this next one stradding away Bucky Irving as well as Carnell Tate and in return getting back James
20:47Cook. This is not even remotely close.
20:51You are trading two pieces from possibly the two worst offenses in the NFL and getting back their running back for
21:00possibly the league's best offense.
21:05So yeah, man. Again, don't think twice about this. This is very easily a spot in which you just go
21:14ahead, you just make the deal.
21:18Now, MGuz with our next question is trading away Chase Brown, Devont Smith, and getting back Quinn Sean Judkins, Malik Neighbors,
21:29Tyler Warren.
21:32So, Chase Brown Neighbors downgrade, Devont Smith, Judkins downgrade. How bad do you need the tight ends?
21:42You need the tight end pretty bad. So, I understand you doing this.
21:47Valuewise, my preference would be the Chase Brown Devont Smith side of this.
21:54That would be my preference on the value end.
21:59Okay.
22:02Now, Bin is able with our next question.
22:08Trading away a mid to late seconds.
22:18and getting back Olly Gordon. Here's the deal, man. If you're really a contender, do you need Olly Gordon?
22:29Like, I'm fine if you wanted to make this on a contending team, but I [sighs] I don't know how excited I would be
22:41about it.
22:46I would probably go ahead and hold on to the second or try to use it in a different way to be completely honest.
22:52Okay, now let me move over to our next question. It's going to be from Sam.
22:59Sam, appreciate you, man. Says, "Hope all is well. Disappointed in the team of Destiny." I know. Me too, my friend.
23:08What's happened is apparently I am horrific at fantasy football.
23:14I've thought I was very good over the past few years and now I am learning in the year of 2026
23:25that I am very bad.
23:29But what are my thoughts on this? Also, would you target any other players instead? Man, this would be an absolute no-brainer.
23:36Like in this deal, if they won't give you Chuba Hubard, like DeAndre Swift, Readad, DJ Moore for Javvante, still not that far off. Like
23:46hypothetically, they say no to Hubard.
23:49You can tell them, okay, keep Hubard and give me AJ Brown.
23:54But yeah, this is a really good situation and
24:16try to think on it.
24:24Yeah, really there's no question here, man. Really, you just got to go through.
24:28You got to make this deal.
24:32Okay, so now our next question's going to be from DT Steey.
24:39Says, "O four to start the season. Need help at running back."
24:44Okay, trading away Judkins and McBride for Ashton Genty.
24:55I don't Kenyan Sadique may be a zero at this point. I don't know what your other tight end is. Here's the deal, man.
25:06I know this sounds dumb. I know we don't want to be making our trade strategy based on like a singular matchup, but Trey
25:17McBride plays the Lions this week, and there's a damn good chance that Trey McBride drops 40 points.
25:28The Lions have given up the most points to opposing tight ends so far this year.
25:42Um, So, I I'm hesitant to tell you to make
26:10this move. I figured you could get a little bit more value, but if this is the best value you're going to get, then
26:15sure, I think you go for it.
26:18if you're that desperate for running back. I actually like the idea of selling high on the Browns, but I'm just hesitant to want to give away
26:28like like a really strong asset there with McBride.
26:39Now our next question is from EKN Knap says 10 team PPR currently two and two trying to upgrade
26:48at wide receiver.
26:52Okay.
27:01Bejon to Kenneth Walker. Lateral move up to you.
27:07Breeze to a lav upgrade. Waddled to Debo downgrade. This is a fine trade if you want to make it. I do think it's going
27:14to come down to your personal preference here.
27:18My hold up that I would have is I would want to make sure that Chris
27:26Ave is good to go. All is practicing and a lav is not going to be all of a sudden dealing with an injury that we have to
27:33worry about.
27:37So that would just be something that I would want to confirm before I would go out there and make this move.
27:44Okay.
27:46Now our next question is going to be from Hammerfight.
27:50It's trading away. Genty to upgrade to JSN. Waddle lateral move to AJ Brown.
27:57Luther Burden and Leaporta to downgrade to McGomery. Here's the deal, man. It's a 10 team, two receiver, one flex format. So, we just want to get the best
28:05player back the vast majority of the time. And JSN does look like he's in a completely different tier of anybody else here. Though I'll say I don't like
28:15the idea of trading away Ash and Genty, but in a trade in which you're getting back Jackson Smith and Jigba, it's
28:23probably completely fine to do so.
28:28It's probably fine to do so here.
28:31Okay, now next question from the Sun God trading away Jamar Chase down tearing to Chase Brown. We're also picking up Kyle
28:41Manungai and Rashid Rice. Our running back room isn't the worst running back room in the world. This is also a bit of
28:49a shallower format here. So, I don't think that this is a trade you need to make to be honest. Now, I'm not going to
28:55fault you for doing it. By all means, if you want to go for it, but yeah, I don't know if you need to make
29:03this trade to be completely honest here.
29:07Okay, now we get to hear the dog barking. That is beautiful. Now Kev Clark says, "I'm in a deep rebuild. Not
29:16sure where I should go from here. I traded CMC and Chase for assets and young players. Would you trade Lamb for
29:24a 27 first? What about Parker?
29:31What about Parker and a 27 second for Lamb?
29:38Okay.
29:44So, what's the record right now? Yeah, we are 0 and4. So, we're for sure rebuilding the 27 second that we'd be trading away.
29:58Hopefully, it's not our own because we would assume that's going to be the 2011.
30:05Okay, I would not trade away.
30:12Okay, so I I understand. Never mind. We are looking to trade CD Lamb away.
30:23I agree with you that we should be going through and looking to sell a 27year-old wide receiver CD
30:33Lamb on a rebuilding roster.
30:36Just the offers that you've gotten in return, they're not nearly enough, man.
30:43Like I would be fine with you going through and trading away Lamb and getting back like Parker Washington
30:54and a 27 first, but you would need that first round pick. If the Lamb deal
31:05was for Washington in the second, at the very minimum, you would need Jordan Tyson added on and then that second round pick. But even then, I
31:17don't think you're getting enough value from Lamb. Now, the benefits that of course you get from making this move would be that you all of a sudden are
31:25set up in a way in which we're pretty much guaranteed to get the 101 next year. we're pretty much guaranteed to
31:31get a really strong rookie pick just cuz our team would be garbage. And there will be some of these weeks in
31:38which CD Lamb is just so damn good that he can carry our roster on his own.
31:44But the price for Lamb at the very very minimum, especially in a one quarterback format, because in a one quarterback format, those first rounders are worth
31:54less than um those first rounders are worth less than
32:12they are in a superlex league.
32:43I think another like again one quarterback format you're not be able to sell Stafford.
32:50Tutin is still only 23 years old. No reason to look to sell to. Yeah, Lamb is that asset you would move off of to
32:57continue this rebuild, but I think you would need significantly more in return if you were going to go through and do this.
33:13Because one thing you also need to think about is you traded away your 2028 first. So since you no longer have your
33:192028 first, there's a damn good chance that we want to pivot this right back to a contending team right after this
33:27season.
33:35But I'm wishing you the best of luck here, man. I really am.
33:39Now, let me move this over for H.
33:43Marquez says, "Worried that Puka um cuts points and Baker out hurts
33:51Eggbuka." Oh, 100% man.
33:56Like I have I bua and I would do literally anything that I could to go through and try to find a way to get to
34:04Michael Wilson.
34:07And at this point, I would rather have Chewba Hubber to be honest with you.
34:16Um, over Devonte Adams and Trevian. So, I think this is a no-brainer deal, man.
34:22Michael Wilson against the Lions this week is probably going to be like wide receiver eight in my rankings. It's going to be insane.
34:31Okay, now going over to this next question.
34:37It's going to be from Schlinky trading away Justin Jefferson as well as Garrett Wilson and in return
34:47getting back Kirn Wadd and Brown.
34:51Jefferson to Kairen at this point. I would probably rather have Kron Williams.
34:57Let me see where Nathan has these guys ranked. Nathan has Kairen at 17. He has Jefferson at 20. Okay, never mind. I was
35:05going to see if I can make that trade in my league. Um, and Garrett Wilson to Waddle. Downgrade. You pick up AJ Brown
35:11for your troubles. It's a league in which depth matters and your running back grooms garbage. Because your running back groom's garbage, I think
35:17you do this deal.
35:20Again, not the easiest trade in the world, but when your running back grooms this bad, I think it's fine.
35:27Okay.
35:33Now, our next question is going to be coming out from Hypnotic Goop.
35:39Says, "One in three. Should I be worried about neighbors's shoulder in the long term?" I personally think yes.
35:47I actually just recorded a sell high video and I do have Malik Neighbors on that list to be honest with you.
35:55Um, now here you'd be selling neighbors to downgrade to Michael Wilson, Blake
36:04Cororm to upgrade to Matthew Golden.
36:09Here's the deal. You don't need the depth piece. And I still think Neighbors is probably the best player in this trade. So for that reason, I think I go
36:19ahead and I think I hold on to I think I hold on to the Malik Neighbors
36:34side here, but I definitely am completely fine selling neighbors and I do think the shoulder injury is something to be concerned with.
36:42Okay, now our next question that we are going to have is coming out from RH says, "Made a feels trade. My team feels
36:56fine. My running back two spot is a little weak. You think I should go make a trade for a running back two or should
37:02we keep our depth? Also, do we think Olly Gordon could sustain this since he produced vers a good run defense?
37:12Okay, I don't think Olly Gordon can sustain what he just did.
37:21And the reason for that is just the Dolphins offense is horrific. I know obviously what Olly Gordon just did this week.
37:31Um but I don't know. Like every week we load up
37:51projections and we look at markets. The Dolphins project to be the lowest scoring offense on the week. And I don't expect that to change anytime soon.
38:00So, I think it's going to be tough for Olly Gordon to sustain what just happened.
38:05Now, we are currently the sixth team in the league analyzer. We are three and one. Now, we do have Olly Gordon as a
38:13short-term play, but we have so many other pieces we can look at. This is a league in which the wide receiver depth
38:19does matter. You can start up to four wide receivers here weekly.
38:24We have Lawrence at quarterback. We have Craft at tight end. So, not the strongest QB room, not the strongest tight end room in this league, but also
38:33at the same time, it's not a massive, massive problem. Running back, we are currently sitting with Javvante as well as Kyle Manungi.
38:45Jacobs in the long term, ETN in the long term. So, your big thing is you just need to survive shortterm
38:55problems, right?
39:00You just need to survive until either Travis ETN or Josh Jacobs come back into this
39:17offense.
39:24So, I don't want to stress that much about running back, man. It would be different if you were one and three,
39:30right? You're one and three and it's like, "Hey, it's time to win or go home." But especially with you being three and one, say we get Jacobs or ETN
39:41back in three weeks and during that time period you go one and two, you would still have a winning record by the time
39:48you get one of those running backs back while at the same time like you give yourself
40:01the upside of Kyle Manungai potentially taking over.
40:12So, I don't think running back's as big of a concern as you maybe think it is.
40:16And to be honest with you, man, I know this is a very aggressive statement to make. I may also take it one step
40:24further. And I may say that I would rather have like Jordan Tyson at the bottom end of this bench than Rashad
40:30White. Like if you were going to make that move, then by all means, if you could sell like Luther Burton and
40:36Brillin Allen in a two for one deal and get a running back that you are excited about um for a decent amount of time,
40:42then sure, do so. It's just going to be much easier said than done.
40:53But yeah, I wouldn't stress I think you have a good squad. I would just cut Rashad White, pick up Jordan Tyson,
40:59and then try to survive the next few weeks until you end up getting one of these names back. Whether that is Josh
41:07Jacobs, whether that is Travis ETN, or maybe Kyle Manungai just ends up taking over.
41:17Okay, but I think that's all I got for you. I really appreciate you, man. And I really do hope I was able to help you out in
41:27some way with this.
41:30Now, let me move this over to Slinky here for Slinky. Straighting away Justin Jefferson as well as Garrett Wilson. And in return is getting back Ashton Genty,
41:42Malik Neighbors, and Josh DS. So, Jefferson verse Genty. Give me Genty. I have Jefferson on my team. I trade him for
41:52Ash and Genty in a heartbeat.
41:55Garrett Wilson verse Malik Neighbors.
41:57They're about the same thing. So yeah, I think you do make this trade, my friend.
42:04I think you have to. Like the volume that you're currently seeing at the moment for Ash and Genty in this Raiders
42:10offense, it truly is incredible.
42:16Now going over to our next one.
42:26This is going to be from Natar trading away DeAndre Swift, Justin Jefferson for Jonathan Taylor. So it's a eight team
42:37formats where the depth does not matter much at all.
42:49Right.
42:52I think in that case I would go ahead and I would just scoop JT. Actually, no.
42:55I'm sorry. It's a dynasty league. Right.
42:58If this is a dynasty league, then at that point, I mean, hell, Jefferson, 27year-old wide receiver. JT 27y old running back. I'd assume the wide
43:07receiver is going to have the longer shelf life.
43:12I'd probably hold on to the Justin Jefferson side in that case.
43:18Now, Buddy with our next question is trading away Genty Jamar Gddard for Javvante. So, Genty Javvante downgrade Jamar Chase down to Trey McBride
43:30downgrade and you're picking up Garrett Wilson as well as Matthew Golden for your troubles. Here's the deal, man.
43:35It's a 10 team, two receiver, one flex.
43:38How down bad could you really be with your depth to feel like you need to make this trade?
43:46So for me, I think I would pretty clearly just want to hold on to Ashton Genty. I
43:58think I'd pretty clearly want to hold on to Jamar Chase in this setup.
44:04Okay, now Danny with our next question here.
44:08It's trading away JT to upgrade to Gibbs, Amari to upgrade to McMillan or say Neighbors to make a lateral move to
44:16McMillan. So effectively, you're trading Jonathan Taylor and Amari and Hampton for Jir Gibbs.
44:22This is definitely a trade I would not have made at the beginning of the season. I definitely would not have done
44:30this before week one, but honestly at this point, man, like I don't know how you could not take
44:49Gibbs here.
44:54I think you have to.
44:59Okay, let me refresh for this next one.
45:03This is from Zlay says, "Would it be better to upgrade at tight ends, wide receiver 2, or running back too?" So,
45:11first things first, you have an incredible team, man. This is a three-in-one record. The most value according to the league analyzer as
45:19well.
45:20This is a two wide receiver, one flex format. So, here's the big big big thing. You could only start three wide
45:29receivers at the very most So, if you can only start three
45:58receivers at the very most, like let's say when your lineup's at its best, you have Walker, Bree at running back, St.
46:05Brown, Watson at receiver, and then either DeAndre Swift or Parker Washington in the flex. And then you have Cardinal Tate, Josh DS on the
46:13bench, and Charminate on the bench even when he does come back.
46:24So, you got to make a play for a tight
46:36end's. That's very clearly what you need to do here.
46:41And with you having Jaden Daniels back as well, I wonder if you could squeeze some value
46:51out of trading away Jaden Daniels. But I would be most interested to see if there's a way that you could pivot over
46:58and get to that elite tight ends.
47:03See if there's a way that you could do so. The problem is you don't have a player in the range of Bowers. you don't
47:08have a player in the range of McBride.
47:10Now, obviously, if you could go through and if you could somehow trade like
47:26Christian Watson, Breeze Hall, DeAndre Swift, any of those players for McBride, you do so in a heartbeat. But it ain't happening.
47:47So, how do you get to that top tight end? I guess you can look at KD.
47:57You can look at trading Parker Washington for KD. I wouldn't want to do the DeAndre Swift for KD deal.
48:21just given the fact you have the bree injury, you have the Walker by that you have to get through here, but if you
48:26could sell one of your receivers like Parker Washington for George KD, or hell, maybe if you wanted to go through and look at selling like Carnell Tate
48:36and pivot over to an interesting tight end like Daltton Concincaid. You could do that as well.
48:45But I think out of all the positions you need to go for, you need to go for tight ends. And looking at what we have on the
48:51waiver wire, there's very little that is interesting here.
48:56Okay, let me go over to our next question.
49:01This next one's going to be from in Tramme. It's trading away Malik Neighbors for Bay Shell Tudin as well as
49:10Tyler Algier.
49:15You're desperate for running back help.
49:17So, I mean, I understand you doing this with how strong your wide receiver room is and how weak your running back room
49:23is. I don't know if this is the trade I want though when selling Malik Neighbors.
49:35Now, Salty Hawk with our next question.
49:38Trading away RGRV JSN for McGomery Nico Michael Wilson. Here's the deal, man. 10 team, two receiver, one flex league. If you're trading away JSN, you just need
49:47significantly more than this. I mean, significantly more.
50:02The dog is going crazy.
50:05I may have to go check in on the dog now. Let me let me do that right now.
50:47There's like a utility man out there for whatever reason. Now side the guy trading away Conception and an early to mid future first for Nico and Diggs and
50:58Dynasty. You would rather have Casey Conception over Stefon Diggs by a mile.
51:03Um, in terms of the early to mid 28 first verse Nico Collins, here's the deal. It's a superflex league and it's
51:12only a 10 team league. So, if that truly is an early to mid 28 first, they're relatively similar. So, I think
51:18valuewise it lies with the Conception and the 28 first side, that's going to be what's more valuable this off season.
51:26Now, with that being said though, if you're a contending team and the Nico side wins it for you, that's what you go
51:32with.
51:34Okay, now Neil Cot trading away Puka for Derrick Henry as well as George Pickkins
51:44looking at running back. You need help.
51:46Yeah, you kind of need help filling out this starting lineup. So, I think that this is a completely fine deal. Again, I
51:53very much am concerned about this offense here though for the Baltimore Ravens. I am worried that if Lamar truly is injured, it may
52:03get ugly.
52:06Okay, now cream with our next question says, "Contending teams going all in got trade offers for Jefferson and Higgins." Um,
52:16Han and his second for Price Higgins.
52:20Han a 27 first and second for Jefferson second third. 27 first 20. Okay, this is very difficult to read out, man. Um, let me
52:31just see real quick to make sure I understand exactly what this is. So, we are a two and two team and you were the one that's wanting
52:41to go in, correct?
52:45You got offer. Oh, no. So, you got offers for Jefferson and T. Higgins. You already traded away Justin Jefferson. It looks like now in terms of what you got
52:57in return, it looks like you got the Jadarian Price move or no, you traded away Echin and his
53:06second for Jadearian Price and T.
53:10Higgins.
53:11Not the worst trade. I'll say come this off season. Don't get me wrong, I'm probably gonna want um the Devon Han side there. Like
53:25I don't want to say I for sure will, but a damn good chance or are you saying that?
53:42I'm sorry. I'm just trying to make sure we're two and two. Our team's not the best, man.
53:50We especially now that we just had the Tagans injury. Your lineup this week kind of sucks.
53:59Hopefully, we're on the same page that you should not be the one that's pushing your chips in the middle.
54:05You should hopefully be the team that is looking to sell assets off to the
54:14contending rosters.
54:18We have a extra 27 first. Now that extra 27 first is from this team that is very very good. I guess this is where you
54:28sold the Justin Jefferson package to. Um they're three and one. So that's going to be a late 27 first. And yeah, that
54:36means we should probably go through and look to offload T. Higgins. So our Tiggins offers that we have again.
54:51You're saying could maybe get Addison for Devon added. Not much interested in Kairen or Dak. So I would be I'm surprised that nobody wants Kiran on a
55:01contending team. based on how he just performed. If you're pivoting to a rebuild, you definitely need to try your best to sell Kairen Williams, it will be
55:11very difficult to project out like a ton of trade value for Kiran come this off seasonason in comparison to what you could get now. If you can sell
55:22Kiran for a 27 first and second, you for sure need to do so on a rebuilding team.
55:28Also, Kiran's damn good. I mean, there's a good chance that um having him on your roster is going to
55:42put you in a position in which you're less likely to win this year.
55:50So, I would be trying to sell Kairen for a 27 first and second. I'd be trying to sell Tigens for a very similar thing.
56:05Yeah, I don't see any of the Higgins deals laid out. Like if we go over to some of these other teams, this Cardell
56:10Tate team, is there a world in which you could sell them THiggins for Cardinal Tate knowing that they're three and one?
56:17Maybe they want to push their chips in the middle even if that means you needed to go through and you need to throw in
56:22another depth piece like Katon Mitchell.
56:27Maybe you can try selling Kairen and Tieens and getting back shell Tutin and Cardell Tate. Again, if we wanted to pivot to the rebuild and look at the
56:36long-term value, this team that's three and one, they just traded for Justin Jefferson. They really don't have much that we could
56:44look at. Um, this is a strong rebuilder.
56:47This team looks like they're pushed in to try to win right now. They don't have their 27 um first or 27 second, but they
56:54also don't have any young assets.
56:59Yeah, I understand your league mates not being interested in Dak Prescott. It's a one quarterback, 10 team league, right?
57:04Nobody really needs Dak that's contending. They already have their QBs.
57:08But what I do think you should entertain, my friend, is I definitely think you should try to continue to push for Tiggins and Kron Williams trades
57:20given the context of you probably wanting to rebuild here, but I really appreciate you and really
57:31hope that I was able to help you out in some way with this, my friend.
57:36Now moving this over to Jay Dev trading away Quinton Johnston Pat Bryant two zeros for I mean and a future first and
57:46second for Drake London. Here's the deal man. If you're a contender it's Drake London and it ain't close. So yeah I
57:55think you go for Drake London here.
58:00Now Chris one and three team is linked. Does this trade make sense for me? Dererick Henry to Pukanua lateral move up to you.
58:11DeAndre Swift from Jordan Tyson. Here's the deal, man. You got to make this trade.
58:18Like I'm sitting here with Jordan Tyson on my own team. I would jump over the moon if you told me that I
58:26was able to trade him for DeAndre Swift.
58:30This is an absolute no-brainer that you just take and you run. You don't think twice about this one, man.
58:39Now, Averyo says, "So, this is a competitive money league. I haven't been able to make any trades yet. I'm looking at my running back room. I'm worried and
58:49thinking it needs improvements, and I've considered trying to dump Tier Watson also, but it's a double flux.
58:57Just trying to get some advice on if I should try to make any more moves. All right, we are the number one team here
59:05in the league analyzer.
59:07Double flex format. Here's the thing, man. You kind of want to hold on to these wide receiver flex pieces. We have
59:15Higgins, we have London in our flex spots. We kind of need to hold on to the depth as we approach the by-weeks as
59:22well as we have injuries here. Like I mean you are currently now having to deal with the the um T. Higgins injury. Maybe Higgins
59:35misses a little bit of time here. I know we had Bucky Irving as the sell high candidate last week being concerned
59:42about how this offense was going to look with the undrafted free agent quarterback.
60:06Sorry, I'm trying to think if there's anything that you have. Jordan Tyson coming in in the long run. Here's the deal, man. Ted Hurst,
60:14easy cut. Like the Buccaneers just have literally zero upside until Baker comes back. and that's not going to be for quite some time, especially knowing that
60:22this is a team that's now probably pushing to have the number one overall pick in the NFL draft. So, there are
60:30very few Buccaneers that I think are worth rostering, and Ted Hurst is definitely not one of them. So, cut Ted Hurst in a heartbeat, man.
60:40Pick up Xavier Worthy or Casey Conception, up to you. are actually probably want to pick up Emanuel Wilson here with this being a double flex
60:48league. Like there is a very real world in which you end up actually getting Emanuel Wilson into your lineup. I would
60:55cut Dalton Schultz and Ted Hurst for Xavier Worthy and Emanuel Wilson. And it's funny that I'm saying that because I was an idiot who
61:06I mean I cut Xavier Worthy for Dalton Schultz so I could put Daltton Schultz in my flex spot this past week which
61:14obviously hindsight is 2020 but that was one of the worst calls ever made.
61:21And I would hold on to your depth man.
61:23It's a double flex format. I don't think you want to make a trade with a team like this. I think you've scored a
61:29ridiculous amount of points in this league for a reason.
61:33You have the most value in this league as is. I would just want to make some of those minor pivots and maybe eventually
61:42you sell off a depth piece, but I kind of want to get through the buys first and then like if Jordan Tyson comes back
61:48say in week seven or if he comes back in week nine and then he actually looks startable and he looks damn good then at
61:55that point maybe you have a little bit more leverage where you can sell one of your receivers. But I don't think you
62:01have that ability to right now. But I really appreciate you and hope that I was able to help you out in some way
62:06here, man.
62:09Now, M trading away scat for Wadd, you have plenty of running back production.
62:14You kind of need help at wide receivers, so I understand if you do this, but Wadd isn't the guy that I personally would
62:21want to be going after.
62:24Now, Scrub is trading away Bejon and Brian Robinson, getting back Puka and the Jets running backs. It's a two receiver, one flex format where, yeah,
62:36your wide receiver room is pretty lackluster. So, I think this is a fair deal. You definitely can make it. If it
62:43was a double flex league, I would be excited about it. Here, not as excited, but it's fine if you wanted to go for
62:50it.
62:52Okay.
62:53Now, Vasco is trading away Javvante for Chase Brown. I have them ranked RB10 and RB1, so it is relatively close. I would
63:03still prefer Chase Brown over Javante, though, just given the workload, especially with what he's getting as a receiver here.
63:11Now, soaring Tiger says, "Hey, Mason, it is a double flex league somehow sitting at one and three. There are a few waiver
63:20moves available, but also what trades would you recommend to upgrade my starting lineup? So, it's a 10 team league. So yeah, we'd expect there to be
63:29decent names on the waiverss, but it's going to be difficult for you here specifically because you are
63:40um you are sitting with an incredible
63:51squad, man. You really are.
63:56You're not going to be able to get any value by selling Drake May, sadly. I wish you could May the QB1 in fantasy this past week.
64:10That is insane. I am starting Drake May this week, but obviously you have Mahomes, so you're chilling. Running back, we have Javvante Genty as our top
64:19two names. We have Bayel Tutin, RB3, Kyle Manungai, running back four. We have a solid running back five here as well with Zack Charbanet.
64:28So running back, we're in a pretty comfortable spot.
64:34Wide receiver, we have Jamar Chase, we have Drake London, Z Flowers, Garrett Wilson. So we have four incredible receivers. We have a strong
64:46tight end with Tyler Warren as well.
64:52I would cut Kyle Pittz, pick up Kayn Black.
64:59After that, if we wanted to make a trade, it would be, in my opinion, trying to see if there's a way that you
65:06could sell two very enticing, two very exciting players in the combination of Bay Shell Tudin and Z Flowers to get
65:15yourself either a true elite running back or an elite wide receiver. I still have Z Flowers ranked as a top 10 wide
65:24receiver. I still think Z Flowers is very exciting.
65:29But I am concerned about Z Flowers given the Lamar injury. I do think that there is some risk there.
65:36Now what we would probably want to do is we would probably want to try targeting one of these teams that really needs help at
65:44running back. This team is like Josh Jacobs is their running back too. I mean they have JSN. like you could go ahead
65:52and you could try sending like B shell Tin and London to try to get to Jackson Smith and Jigba. It's just not going to
65:59happen, right? But I would go through and I would send this offer and see what they have to say.
66:05Um going over to the other team that maybe needs a little bit of help at running back. They don't really they
66:11have an elite tight ends. If you wanted to try to send the combination of Bay Shell Tudin and Tyler Warren for Trey
66:19McBride, you have a team that's strong enough where you can justify making this move.
66:26So, yeah, I definitely would be intrigued and approaching those teams that need help at running back, seeing exactly how much value we could get from
66:37Bashel Tutin. Again, not that we hate Bashell Tutin or anything, but we've talked about selling him in the past.
66:43Um, given just the usage concerns with him not seeing work as a receiver here really, he's averaging 1.8 targets per game, which is currently the same mark
66:53as what you're getting with like Derrick Henry, as an example.
66:57So, that is what I would be looking to do here, man. But again, very, very strong team, very strong position to be
67:05in.
67:08Now, Unverse says, "Chloren Addison on my bench. Is Jamar Chase worth it?"
67:15Uh, probably.
67:17If you have the depth pieces on your bench, especially with the Higgins injury, I think Chase is more likely to play
67:26this week than Higgins is. So, yeah, I would go ahead and I'd probably make this move.
67:33Now, our next one is from Cheek. says, "Hey, Mason, what are we thinking?
67:36Having injuries sucks."
67:40So, here's the deal, man. I will say in general, St. Brown to Jefferson downgrade Pickkins to Garrett Wilson lateral move, but downering from a
67:49Monrot to Jefferson probably is not worth David McGomery and a Gabuka to me.
67:58Like, straight up valuewise, it's probably the Aman Ross St. Brown side.
68:04But the problem in saying that is this is a 14 team format. So there's a chance that you're just desperate for depth.
68:12Right now our lineup, we have St. Brown pickings at wide receiver. We have James Cook Scat at running back. I guess our
68:19flex would be like lad if he does play.
68:22We don't know if he will, but >> [sighs]
68:39>> Can we see the waiver wire in your league?
68:44Because the big thing that you're doing is you're just trading for additional depth pieces that are hopefully going to be able to
68:52be like you have Lemon, you have Rashad White, you have Emit Johnson. There are Waverwire assets. Here's what I definitely would not want you to do. I
69:02wouldn't want you to make this trade to backfill depth, especially due to injuries in the short term, and then all of a sudden you're dealing with
69:09Jefferson being out this week, the Jefferson buy next week. So, I understand your thought process having the injuries, having this be a deep
69:18league, but I still probably hold on to Aman Ross St. Brown as well as George Pickins here.
69:27Okay.
69:29Now, Apple Eater trading away. Amarian Hampton Tiggins for Christian Watson and Dalton Concincaid. Higgins to Christian Watson lateral move up to you. Amari
69:39Hampton verse Daltton Concaid. You have Isaiah likely who had 12 targets last week and your running back room may not be the best once you eventually get back
69:48in Rico Dattle into Pittsburgh. So, I completely understand you making this move. Don't get me wrong, like Amari and
70:00Hampton looks horrific, but I would probably hold on to Hampton
70:07and T. Higgins here just for the moment.
70:13Okay, now Stuttering Stanley says, "Is this trade even worth it given my record? Bashel Tutin neighbors to
70:22Jefferson and Raadre.
70:25I think this is a fair trade. I don't know what your current record is. You do have the ability to upgrade at wide
70:31receiver here with how strong your top two RBs are.
70:36So, fair deal. If you're three and one, you probably go for it being able to miss Jefferson for this week. However,
70:45if you're one and three, then it's going to be a little bit of a different setup where there in that case, you probably
70:54need to hold on to the combo of Tuton and Neighbors because they'll be playing here in the short term where Jefferson
71:01probably won't be.
71:04Now, Zlay with our next question is trading away Bree Saul, Parker Washington, Josh D, and in return is getting back Justin Jefferson and
71:16Coloulston Lovel.
71:22Okay, [snorts] Lovelin is almost a zero at this point, man.
71:31leftover running back, you would have some depth. Like Lovelin so far this season is the Titan 33 in points per game.
71:42I do think Jefferson's by far and way the best player here, but I wonder if there's a different asset that you could
71:47get on top of him other than Lovelin.
71:50But again, the only way you would ever go out there and trade for an injured Justin Jefferson is if I don't know, man. You're three in one,
72:06four and0. Like, if you can [snorts] survive a couple losses here without Jetta.
72:14Now, Negatron says, "Hey, Mason, should I move CMC for two pieces? This is a 12 team, two receiver, one flex." So, my
72:21default answer is going to be no, but we'll check out the team. If so, what two players should we target? I'm one
72:27and three in a nonPPR format.
72:31NonPPR league. We want to be built around the running backs and hopefully have an elite QB.
72:37Here we do have that elite quarterback.
72:39We are currently sitting with Patrick Mahomes.
72:45And we have Kyler Murray is our quarterback, too. Don't necessarily need a QB2 here in this spot, but understand having it.
72:55Running back, we have McCaffrey, we have Raadre.
73:22We're one and three, man. You may actually need to sell AJ Brown, which like right now is the worst time to be selling AJ Brown,
73:34but we need points in this lineup ASAP. We can't focus on long-term upside. We got to focus in on short-term production at
73:43this point.
74:02Let me see cuz McCaffrey obviously very different in a nonPR league than a full PPR format given so much of his
74:11production comes from catching the football.
74:22Sorry, I got to see what the dogs are doing.
75:41In general, I don't think I would be wanting to make a true down tier from CMC to two pieces.
75:54I think I would probably prefer trading away McCaffrey and AJ Brown
76:18and getting two pieces back they're going to produce right now.
76:25Like let me go through and try to map out how this would look. Like I think a good example of this is can we pivot
76:32from McAffrey to like James Cook who in a nonPPR format is not that far off add in AJ Brown and get back like Garrett
76:42Wilson on a one and three team. This would make so much sense.
76:52Going over to again, we're trying to target these three in one rosters.
76:59This team is Kenneth Walker. You know what I may do in a nonPR format. I know this sounds crazy. I may straight up try
77:07to sell McAffrey and AJ Brown for Kenneth Walker. I would not do this in a full PPR league, but one and three
77:17and nonPPR, the gap between Walker and McAffrey is so much larger.
77:25And again, you just truly need to make a play if you're one and three and in this spot.
77:34Your wide receiver room would be incredibly weak after this. But again, that's kind of the spot that you're in right now given this injury.
77:45But I really appreciate you and I hope I was able to help you out in some way with this, my friend.
77:55Now, let me move this to Burlay Beats.
78:00It's trading away Amari Hampton, Olly Gordon, as well as a Gabuka.
78:06And moving over to Justin Jefferson.
78:18I think you have to like I don't think this is a close man.
78:23I have Ibuka on my fantasy team and I would do literally anything I could to trade him away. Amari Hampton just
78:30played 30% of the snaps for one of the worst offenses in the league.
78:35Like this is Justin Jefferson by a country mile.
78:41Please go get Justin Jefferson here.
78:43Please.
78:47Okay.
78:49Now Kez with the next question.
78:53She's trading away Luther Burden for Cam Scataboo.
78:59Yeah, your running back room is very weak. So I think this is a no-brainer for you, man. Again, Scat definitely concerning how slow paced
79:11this offense is. Definitely concerning how bad this offense is, but like Luther Burden has his own concerns
79:27there in Chicago.
79:34Next one from Cara trading away Swift for Tyler Warren. You have all the running back production in the world, but you have Jawan Johnson, man. Jawan
79:43Johnson's balling with how damn good Jawan Johnson is.
80:01or at least has been so far. I don't know if Tyler Warren is that much of an upgrade here to be honest with you.
80:11I think I'd go swift now. Korean Magic with our next question. Trading away Pukanakua, Jaylen
80:22Wadd, Brock Bowers for Hubard, Alave, Nico, and Likely. You're giving up the two best players in the deal.
80:34So, yeah, I don't see a world in which I want to do this. How? Like, I understand. Yeah, your running back room
80:39is bad, man. But if I'm selling Puka and Waddle, I want more in return.
80:47I really do.
80:53Now, I hate injuries to say Mason had my first loss this week. I'm thinking of making this trade. I'm worried Pickkins
81:00will be another ladder roam. What do you think? So, here's the deal, man. Uh Pickkins is not going to be another
81:06ladder roam because Pickkins is still getting used right. We go ahead and pull this up. George Pickkins is out there for at least 75% of the snaps every
81:18single game. He's still averaging seven targets per contest.
81:25The difference between him and Rome is Roma doesn't have anything like this usage, right?
81:32Um Roma right now is current and I'll say also big difference between these guys is we've seen the production from pickins before. Roma is currently
81:43averaging five targets per game.
81:50Lad McConi is currently averaging 4.3 targets per game. Again, Pickkins is at seven. And there's a big difference
82:00between the Dallas Cowboys offense and what you have with the offense for the Los Angeles Chargers.
82:09So, I would not be worried about Pickkins like having that low of a floor or being that bad. Doesn't mean you
82:18shouldn't be concerned about George Pickkins. There are plenty of things to be concerned about. Um, in terms of Bree versus George, I think it does kind of
82:27matter with your team. Your wide receiver room is garbage. So, I'm fine with you making this move with Breeze currently injured.
82:36Obviously, if you could get to Nico, it would be more enticing though if you could get to Z Flowers, if you could get
82:42to Drake London. But I'm assuming you're not going to be able to get to those guys. So, if this is the best you're
82:47going to get, I'm not going to fault you at all for it. And don't worry about Pickkins looking the same way that Vlad Mani and
82:57Roma say do.
83:01Now, go Gator says, "My team is struggling at one and three currently.
83:05made a trade last week of McCaffrey for Henry and Flowers.
83:12Is there anything else I should do to get me out of this slump?
83:17Okay, what we need to do right now if you just traded for Derrick Henry and say Flowers, which I will say looks like a
83:26very good trade, man, the cost that you paid, but we need to send up a prayer that Lamar Jackson's going to be good to go.
83:37Now, he's not going to play this week, but you need to send up a prayer he's good to go next week. And you need to
83:43set up a prayer that this lower body injury doesn't limit him the way that we saw another one limit him last season.
83:52But looking at the team how it stands right now, we are one and three. So, we need to think about selling any
84:00long-term upside that we have for short-term production.
84:06Quarterback, we have Tyler Shuck. So, we're effectively streaming quarterbacks in a 10 team league. Shuck's been great, right? But Goff's out there on the
84:14waiverwire. So, you are going to want to play the matchups. And honestly, this week, as you do have a really tough
84:20matchup for Tyler Shuck having to play against the Minnesota Vikings, I would actually probably prefer you going through and honestly you playing Jared
84:31Goff. Now going over to running back, we are sitting with the combination of Derk Henry, Bashel Tuton, Amari and Hampton,
84:41and then we have Travis ETN at the very bottom of this bench. Again, being a one and three roster, if you could sell
84:48Travis ETN for something, you would.
84:51Now, I'm going to assume that you can't the same way that I am one and three in my league and I can't sell Travis ETN
84:58for a bag of peanuts. So, you're probably stuck with them the same way that I am stuck with them. Then, going
85:05over to wide receiver, we have Z Higgins, Rice, JMO, and Coker. And then we have Harold Fannon at tight ends.
85:15So we have Higgins injured, Rice and Coker on by. We're playing Z and J Mo wide receiver this week, Henry Tuton at
85:23running back this week, Hampton in the flex.
85:28Here's the deal, man. I would be interested in you going through and in the long term you making a trade to get a better
85:38quarterback, you making a trade to get a better tight ends, but in the short term you're probably not going to be able to.
85:50In the short term, you're probably stuck with this as is because again, you're dealing with so many by-weeks. They're dealing with the
85:58injuries as well. Plan on playing Jared Goff this week. I would say if it wasn't for Alvin Kamar having a really tough
86:06matchup against the Vikings, I would also plan on flexing Kamara over Amari and Hampton. But again, this is a horrific matchup that he has.
86:21Trying to think if there's anything else that we have here for you, man.
86:25I don't think so. But yeah, I I think what it's going to come down to with your team is the Lamar Jackson status and how quickly
86:40he can get over this injury and if this injury is going to impact his play in the second half of the season and
86:47negatively impact the amount of points we're going to be getting out of this Baltimore Ravens offense, which would be my biggest concern for your roster, to
86:55be honest.
86:56But I really appreciate you and I hope I was able to help you out in some way with this, my guy.
87:05Now, let me refresh this.
87:10This is going to be coming out from Bashworth says, "Made the regretful decision of trading Bejon when I was 0 and2." Dear God, man, what did you trade
87:19him for? Um, now I'm 0 and4 and I don't know how I can fix this team. It's a keeper league. Can keep the player for
87:28two rounds higher than where they were drafted.
87:32Okay. So, Dynasty, you're 0 and4. It's time to pack it in. It's time to go through and make trades for the long
87:40term. Keeper league, you're in it till the very end here. We're still going to be battling this out.
87:48This is a league in which you can start up to four wide receivers a week. And at the same time, we have plenty of wide
87:57receiver depth on our roster, right? We are currently sitting with Malik Neighbors, Parker Washington, Devont Smith,
88:07Michael Wilson, Jaylen Wadd. You have five startable receivers. And then we have Jordan Tyson in the long run as well. Now obviously Devont Smith dealing
88:16with an injury right now but still the big problem that we have is we went with the Philadelphia Eagles
88:35stack.
88:39We drafted Jaylen Herz and Devonta Smith and obviously the Eagles look horrific
89:02because it's a keeper league. I don't even want to tell you like, oh, these guys that are injured Like if they're able to be kept next
89:48season, I don't know where you draft a Jordan Tyson, there's a damn good chance you're gonna hold on to him.
90:18I don't I I legit don't see anything you can do, man. I think you're cooked.
90:28I hate to say it because this is a keeper league.
90:35I think you're cooked, man. I don't think there's a move to be made.
90:42Again, a regular reddraft format. You're 0 and4. You want to be trading all these injured players, all these guys that aren't producing right now to try to get
90:50any upgrade anywhere we can. We're trading away Devont Smith. We're trading away Jordan Tyson. We're trading away Jadarian Price. But on an 0 and4 keeper
91:00league, you may be better off holding on to them.
91:08Yeah, I I I am I'm very very sorry. This is the first time I've said this today.
91:13The first time I've maybe said this in a very long time, but there's nothing to do here. You're cooked chicken.
91:22Hopefully things turn around. the 0 and3 team in the Flock League last week just ended up um winning the highest score of
91:30the week. They won 5K. Hopefully our team turns it around here. Maybe DeAndre Swift gets benched for Kyle Manungai and it's Kyle Manungai to the moon. But
91:40you're in a rough spot now. Tai Chicks got digs trading away JT to down tier two Chase Brown, but you're picking up Tero McMillan and Rasheed
91:51Rice for it. This is an absolute no-brainer. Even with this being a really shallow format, man. Let trading away swift for Barkley. Now that Barkley
92:00is week to week here, the vibes are at an all-time low for the Philadelphia Eagles.
92:10I probably want to take Saquon Barkley.
92:15Now, George M says one and three start.
92:17Had to do something. Is this Oh, man.
92:21This is laughable. How the hell could you ever potentially trade away Jaylen Herz, Olly Gordon,
92:37Jaylen Wadd for JSN.
92:42I legit don't know how this happens.
92:46Unbelievable move, man. Unbelievable move.
92:54Like I don't even know what league settings that would begin to make sense in. Like how the hell did you get JSN
93:00for that?
93:03Now worthless Ravioli trading away lamb for Chiron as well as Genty.
93:24you have depth. Like, you don't need to make this trade. And I do think you're giving up the best player, but you're
93:31just getting so much value in return.
93:36I would say out of principle, you probably got to make this move and then try to make a two for one deal elsewhere
93:42to upgrade.
93:44Again, really tough spot to tell you to do so though because like you have a phenomenal team. You don't need the
93:53depth. You don't need to give up the best player in a deal.
93:57Now Jaffa is trading away Chase Brown save flowers for Puka Nua Bree Hall.
94:05Chase Brown to Puka upgrade flowers to Bree downgrade.
94:16This is a fair deal. It's up to you.
94:18There are a lot of uncertainties with this. You have the uncertainty regarding the Lamar Jackson ankle. You have the uncertainty for the Puka Nakua preh
94:30hernia.
94:32You have the uncertainty regarding Bree Hall's thigh injury.
94:38Really, the only guy you don't have to be worried about the injury stuff with is Chase Brown.
94:47This is a really awkward spot. And this is up to you, man.
94:53Really weird situation here though.
94:59Now going over to our next question.
95:07This is from Mike Bo who is trading away Christian McCaffrey as well as Jawan Johnson and in a return getting back Emanuel
95:18Wilson and Amanra.
95:22CMC to Amanra slight upgrade. Jawan Johnson to Emanuel Wilson downgrade. What do you have at tight end? You have Jake Ferg. So, like
95:33you can make this trade if you want, but I don't think this is a no-brainer by any stretch of the imagination.
95:42I don't think it is.
95:44Okay.
95:48Now, let me go over to this next question.
95:55This is from Jay Hacks trading away Amari and Hampton Tedo McMillan. Matthew Golden,
96:10Brock Bowers for Jefferson Z Diggs and Loveland.
96:16Bowowers to Jefferson downgrade.
96:19McMillan to Flowers lateral move. Golden to Diggs downgrade. Amari and Hampton to Coulson Lovelin downgrade. I understand
96:30why you want to do this man, but at this point with Jefferson injured and the way that Kyler's playing, it's tough not to take
97:15It's tough not to just take Bowowers over Jefferson with the Jefferson stuff going on right now. And I say this as
97:21somebody who has Jefferson on their team, but the Raiders look like they have a better offense. Brock Bowers looks like he may just straight up outscore
97:30Jefferson and you get the points at tight end.
97:34Now, let's see if this question will load in from Bill's side.
97:41May have to skip by that right now.
97:43Rapid links trading away Jetta for Javvante.
97:48you have more wide receiver production than you do a running back production.
97:52So, I understand you making this move. I personally would still prefer Justin Jefferson, but again, I understand you wanting to make this.
98:02Okay, now our next question is coming out from Rapid Link says, "Took Jefferson and
98:19Hampton at the one-two turn. Weak at running back, but feel okay at receiver, though Jefferson has been a letdown. Do I dangle Jefferson in trades for a
98:28better running back or do we stand put as is one and three, so I feel like I need to make a move to save my save my
98:34season?" So again, completely understand where you're coming from, my guy. I am also currently sitting at 1 and three with Justin Jefferson. It is literal
98:43hell. So, I get it. But still at the same time, I definitely would not be willing to sell him um for my own team
98:53for I mean Jovonte Williams of all players. The
99:12problem is you have so little value on your roster.
99:17So we picked up Joe Mixon. Obviously now Mixon is an easy cut for you. Looking at the waiverwire, Roman Wilson would
99:24probably be the name that you look at snagging. Quarterback we have Lawrence.
99:28Running back we have Swift and Hampton.
99:30So we have two startable RBs.
99:34Wide receiver Jefferson Neighbors Washington. And we have like Michael Wilson and Jaylen Coker on the bench. So here is the deal. I am probably in
99:42agreement with you that if you could sell a wide receiver and get an upgrade at running back, it does make sense. I
99:49just don't know if the way I would want to go about it would be going through and trying to offload Justin Jefferson
99:56for a running back in the tier of Javvante Williams.
100:00I would be looking at somebody hopefully a little bit higher.
100:32You could also explore the possibility of trying to sell like Parker Washington and Amari and Hampton in a two for one
100:38deal. The problem is it's just absolutely impossible to try to sell Amari and Hampton right now. Now, obviously, if there was a world in which
100:46you could go through and you could sell Amari and Hampton in a two for one trade with Washington and move over to that range of running back
100:56like Javvante Williams, you would. It is just much much easier said than done.
101:01But I think that's what I would be more so interested in. If you could make a two for one deal where you send one of
101:09your wide receiver depth pieces with Amarian or you send one of your wide receiver depth pieces with Swift to get an upgraded RB.
101:24I think that may be what we want to do.
101:37Um, yeah, but don't just sell Jefferson straight up for a running back because the problem is you and you can also look
101:49at trying to get one of the tight ends involved as well if you are able to extrapolate a little bit more value out
101:54of it that way because obviously as we sit here with the combination of both Jawan Johnson and Tucker Craft, you would assume that you should be able to
102:04get value out of one of these guys.
102:06Again, maybe that's a bold assumption, but that's what I would be assuming right now.
102:11Okay, now let me go over to our next question. That's going to be from H Vargas or Xv Vargas. Trading away Gibbs
102:20Rasheed Rice for James Cook Ted McMillan.
102:29H.
102:32It's a two receiver, one flex format.
102:35Rice to McMillan, massive upgrade. Gibbs to Cook, massive downgrade. But you pick up a L. Looking at your team right now,
102:42you don't need to make this trade. You don't need to be um picking up depth.
102:48Like your team is just fine, man. But it's good value if you wanted to sell Gibbs and Rashid Rice. So, I'm not going
102:57to fault you for doing it. Again, I just don't think it's a spot in which you would have to sell Jamir Gibbs, though.
103:07Okay, now going over to our next question.
103:14This is from Elias.
103:17So, somehow one and three with this team even though I have 20 more points than the second highest scoring team. Current
103:25waiverss are Tank to Shipley, Hutchinson to Keon, M. Collins for the Denver DST.
103:32Not true to get for a quarterback for Lamar likely being out. Any help would be great. Thanks, Mason. Appreciate you, man. So, here's the deal. Um,
103:43your team's incredible, right? like you already said, you scored the most points in this league and at the same time you
103:50have the most value according to the league analyzer and it's not that close either.
103:57So looking at the pickups that I would be going for, we get Michael Penn playing against Baltimore, we get
104:06Cousins playing in New England, and then nobody else I'd be interested in at quarterback. It'd be either Penn or Cousins. I would probably pick up
104:16Michael Penn here. So, you're already cutting Tank Bsby for Will Shipley.
104:21You're already cutting Xavier Hutchinson for Keon Coleman.
104:29Mark Andrew has had at least five targets every week. I don't think you cut him. You probably cut M. Collins here. Yeah, cut M. Collins for Michael
104:37Penn. And then this is a start eight format, right? So this is a double flex league where we are incentivized to
104:46build around the depth at the skill positions. While everybody is healthy and not on buy, we are sitting with Kenneth Walker,
104:56Chuba Hubard, Puka Alave, Jaylen Warren, DeAndre Swift in the
105:10lineup.
105:12And then our depth is maybe a little bit shaky beyond that, but in general, I would say that's not going to matter too
105:19much here when you have such a strong lineup at the very top.
105:26So, I really like this team, man. I think you're in a really good spot.
105:42I would just make the waiver wire pivots. Again, if depth is our biggest concern, that's going to be the easiest thing to fix off waiverss. Again, I
105:50apologize for you, but like I I wish I had more to say. Again, this is a league in which you've scored the most points.
106:04You have the most value. You're constructed well for this format. And the easiest way to fix the one problem you have, which is the lack of depth at
106:13the bottom end of the bench, is through the waiver wire anyway. So, I think you just leave this team as is. Don't panic.
106:20Don't make any trades. There's no reason to. And I would go through and look to see if we can churn some of those names
106:27at the very bottom end of the waiver wire.
106:31Okay.
106:34But Jack says, "One and three. My second running back would be Bree Hall. What are your thoughts?"
106:44Uh, here's the deal, man. If you're one and three, I would ra like I'm fine making this
106:52trade, but I would rather you trade away Bree than Chuba cuz one and three roster, you need to prioritize
107:00production right Now trying to think if there's anything else
107:23that I have.
107:31But no, I think yeah, if I was going to make one of those trades on a one and three roster, Bree would be my preferred
107:38cell.
107:40Okay, next question from Giggles.
107:43Trading Bejon to Walker lateral move up to you. Bree to Taylor, pretty clear upgrade. Jefferson to Pickkins, pretty clear downgrade. It's a fair trade. It's
107:53just your personal preference, my friend.
107:57Now, Bam says, "Hey, Mason. Been watching the channel for about three years now. Thank you so much, man, and need some help. I'm 0 and4 and don't
108:05know what to do. I feel like this team is a lot better than the record. Got shafted by Drake May and Tucker Craft in
108:11the lineup." Hey, man, I feel your pain with getting shafted by Drake May.
108:17Really love the team. literally feel like all of these two all-star bombs have destroyed my own squad. Well, let's
108:25see where we're at. Oh, dear God, man.
108:30You're second in the league analyzer and 0 and4 somehow. How is that even possible?
108:39Third fewest amount of points scored.
108:43I know the frustration that you have with Drake May here, man. But
109:08god dang.
109:13You got to pick May up. You got to go through and drop Darren Waller. Drop drop drop Jaylen Wright. Right. Jaylen
109:19Wright's the running back too in the worst offense in the NFL.
109:26So, drop Jaylen Wright, pick up Drake May. You're probably playing Drake May over Darnold this week. Running back, you have CMC Genty, wide receiver
109:34Flowers. You have Michael Wilson for the flex. We have Coker Addison as depth.
109:39Tucker Craft looked really good this past week. Here's the fact of the matter. You have a good team. You got very unlucky, but from this point
109:49forward, I think you're going to be in a much better situation.
109:55Like I don't want you to panic here.
110:17I'm trying to think, man.
110:31I would literally just cut Jaylen Wright, pick up Drake May, probably play Drake May this week. I am concerned
110:39about Z Flowers given the Lamar stuff.
110:45Like obviously in my opinion if you could pivot from Flowers to London, pivot from Flowers to Nico, I would look to do that. But I think your team's
110:53going to be good. I really do.
110:57But I really appreciate you. I wish I had more to say other than you've just gotten incredibly unlucky.
111:05You have the second best team in this league and I think getting Drake May in the lineup over Darnold would be a
111:09little bit better.
111:12Now AO says, "I could throw in Jetta in, but is the first too much?"
111:19Dynasty Superflex League where you're going from Camboard to Michael Penn.
111:25I thought I moved Michael Penn higher than this in my Dynasty QB rankings last week. Did I not?
111:35Let me go ahead and tinker with this some more.
111:41Okay. No. Yeah, this is where we moved him. Feel like you should maybe even be higher though.
111:47Um, Kale Moore to Michael Penn. I view that as an upgrade. Devont Smith to Garrett Wilson and Dynasty is an upgrade. Paying a late first to do so is
111:57pretty aggressive.
112:00Dude, definitely don't throw in Jettas.
112:02Here's the deal. If you are 100% confident that this is a late first, you could do this deal. But if this turns
112:10out to be like the 103 or the 104, there's a good chance you lose it.
112:19So, just depends there, man.
112:25Now, Alex to say Mason have excess running back depth now and want to try to upgrade at tight end/carterback or maybe upgrade at wide receiver with a
112:35package for running back and a depth receiver. Any recommendations on trades for Swift, Kamar, Rice, and Lad?
112:44So, here's gonna be the godhonest truth, man.
112:50Now is a really bad time to trade away DeAndre Swift the week after he just got benched.
112:58Now's a really bad time to trade away Lad Maki or Rashi Rice the week after they just got injured. unless you're
113:06fine on accepting massive discounts.
113:11Now, in terms of how we could go about that, I would be interested in seeing if you
113:35could sell Kamara because he's not somebody that we need to start with either Rice or lad if there was going to
113:42be a play to be made.
113:44And another appealing thing that you have in you being able to make one of those two for one deals would be you
113:51going through and you being able to pick up Jordan Mason for completely free on the waiver wire. There.
114:21Now, realistically, what kind of wide receiver could you even expect to get back if you were trading away like Rice
114:32as well as Kamar?
114:35I would be trying to get into the range of like Neighbors Pickkins, Watson, Garrett Wilson. I don't want Devont Smith on a one and three team. Maybe
114:46Devonte Adams. Like if you can get one of those wide receiver pivots, that'd be very impressive.
114:54Lad and Kamar, I'd be looking at like Devonte Adams, Michael Wilson, Jaylen Wadd, Matthew Golden, Mike Evans, and then again, if you can pick up
115:03Jordan Mason for completely free afterwards, It's something I'd want to do, but
115:34I really appreciate you, man, and really hope that I was able to help you out with something. But yeah, the problem
115:41with like you can't sell Swift right now. Nobody's going to be buying him.
115:52It's going to be tough to sell Rice or Lad, but I guess if you could try to sell Kamara with one of them in a two
115:59for one deal to get the upgrade and then back fill with Jordan Mason for free, that'd be interesting. Just much easier
116:05said than done.
116:08Now, Jack Iberak, longtime member of the flock, says in a weird spot. I just got offered a Watson and got it for Kelsey
116:15and to need to know if we should be rolling with it. Okay, so I actually really do like the buy low of Christian
116:23Watson right now and it looks like you did accept it. We have Lamb Jefferson Watson now at wide
116:34receiver. So, our wide receiver room is insane.
116:37Running back and tight end sucks though.
116:41So the narrower lineup consistent. Mahomes at quarterback.
116:47Running back in the long term is going to be good, but you have Bree and ETN currently injured. So in like the short
116:52term, you're starting Trevian and Brilan Allen.
117:01Wide receiver Lamb Jefferson.
117:04Tight end we have Goddard.
117:07Flex Christian Watson.
117:20Would it be possible for you to try to send Jaden Daniels?
117:24Maybe you have to wait a week for Jaden Daniels to produce, but I mean, you need to find a way at this point, at least in
117:29my opinion, to see if there'd be a way that you could go through and get an upgrade at running back or tight ends.
117:38Give me one second.
119:34Sorry, the puppy's being a helien for Mrs. Flock. But yeah, now that you made this deal to get your elite wide
119:42receiver core, like you're not going to be able to sell Metaf for anything.
119:46You're not going to be able to sell Addison for anything. you clearly need to prioritize running back and tight ends. So really the only expendable
119:52value that I could see there being is if Jaden Daniels balls out over the next one to two weeks if you would be able to
119:59find a way to offload Daniels and get an upgrade at one of those positions. Now obviously if you could just pivot over
120:05from like CD Lamb and get to Kenneth Walker then by all means you just go ahead and do that and then it naturally
120:10bounces out your running back room that way. But that's probably going to be easier said than done. Another trade you could look at is if you could pivot from
120:17like Jefferson to Genty or Chase Brown, of course.
120:22Now here, YG trading away Marian Hampton for Nico Collins. This is not even remotely close, man. Nico Collins is a top 12 wide receiver rest of season and
120:31Amari and Hampton is borderline unplayable.
120:35So yes, you take this deal and you run for the literal hills.
120:42Okay.
120:51Now, this next questions from why I'm sorry, from Bitter Hornet again. Says, "Should I hold on to RJ for his upside
120:59or do we make this trade?"
121:03Here's the problem with this. Carnell Tate would just kind of fall into a group of like five wide receivers that you already
121:12have where they're all just borderline wide receiver 2/flexes.
121:19So, it's not a super easy call to make to be completely honest.
121:27I think it's a completely fine and it's a completely fair trade. I would just assume maybe you could get a little bit
121:35more value if you were going through and if you were deciding to trade away like Tucker Craft who's coming off a pretty big week
121:44because obviously Craft as well does have the name brand appeal.
121:52Okay, now going to the next question. We got Jay Bin trading away Genty and Wadd for
122:01JSN and Amari Hampton. Um, here's the deal. No part of me thinks that you should do this trade because you are
122:09getting Amarian.
122:13But with that being said, I would do this trade even if Amarian Hampton wasn't in it at all.
122:22I would make this trade straight up just for Jackson Smith and Jigba.
122:29So given that and you're getting Aari and Hampton just kind of for free here, I think you should go ahead and do it
122:35now. Meets Delicious says, "Or should I push for giving up Chase Brown instead?"
122:41Genty and Tedro McMillan for CD Lamb.
122:53Chase Brown. Genty. I would rather Yeah.
122:55I mean, I would rather give up Chase Brown if I was going to give up one of these guys.
123:05It's a fair deal either way and it's going to come down to your personal preference, man. if you were going to
123:09make it. Again, for me, I would slightly rather trade away Chase Brown than I would Ashen Genty, but I really like
123:16both Chase Brown and Ashen Genty rest of season. So, if possible, I'd really like to hold on to both guys.
123:24Okay.
123:26Now, next question is going to be from Crow. It's trading
123:33away Lamar Amarian Watson for CD Lamb.
123:40I think you probably take Lamb here considering the fact that it looks like it's a 10 team, two wide receiver, one
123:46flex. Now, if the league settings are pulling in incorrectly, then maybe you revisit
124:11But again, if it's that super shallow format, I think you can go ahead and get Lamb.
124:16Now, let me see if this will load for Bill Hillside. Hell yes. As I'm in dire need of a running back with McGomery and
124:22Eatn dropping the ball, we have a tradeoff for out where we send Matthew Golden and David McGomery for Xavier Worthy who's not even really worth the
124:32roster spot and Belle Tutin. If that fails, I'm considering moving Parker for a running back. Just not sure who to target. Willing to trade anyone but Nico
124:41and CMC. What are your thoughts? Let me go ahead and pull this up. So, this is a superflex league where you have to start
124:47three wide receivers and you also have an additional flex as well. So, we are currently sitting here at a three and
124:55five record. Score the seventh most points in this league. We have the seventh best team according to flockfantasy.com.
125:03So, our quarterback room pretty damn strong, right? I mean, we are sitting with the combination of Dak Prescott as well as Jaylen Herz.
125:13So, feel good about um having Dak as our QB1. Now, Jaylen Herz obviously looks pretty damn bad. If Jaylen Herz was my
125:24quarterback one, I'd be terrified.
125:26Jaylen Herz quarterback two, a Okay.
125:30Going over to running back, we have Christian McCaffrey.
125:35We have David McGomery, Travis ETN. Yeah. So, we're absolutely cooked, right? Completely understand where you're coming from here, man.
126:06wide receiver, you have Nico Neighbors, Washington, Golden, JMO, Diggs. You have six startable receivers, and you could really only ever start four of them. So,
126:16you definitely should trade a wide receiver for a running back.
126:21Again, I won't fault you for saying I have no interest in trading away Nico Collins. Again, completely understandable here.
126:33Tight end, we have Isaiah likely. I think the big thing should be just making a lateral move where you send the
126:41running back like Parker W. I'm sorry, the receiver like Parker Washington, you try to get back a running back like Bashel Tuton, you send the wide receiver
126:51like Malik Neighbors, you try to get back the running back like Jeremiah Love.
126:58I don't think you need to make it that much more complicated just because again your team is so strong at wide receiver.
127:05You have like J Mo and Stefon Diggs on the bench pretty clearly here. So I think just going through and making that
127:12trade where you were to send You were to just send one of your wide
127:33receivers.
128:17Um, Yeah, I I don't think you need to make
128:49it that complicated. Sell a depth wide receiver for a depth running back. And again, I wouldn't be opposed like if you
128:54could pivot from Nico to Ashton Genty, pivot from Nico to Chase Brown, kind of solves your problem.
129:02Now, Bengals Super Bowl says, "Howdy, Mason.
129:09Hope you're doing well. Better than your flock league team's doing. Here's the deal, man. Um, at this point, my life is
129:17just completely dependent on how my flock leagues team is doing, and it's not too hot right now. Appreciate everything you do. Thank you for the
129:24consistent content. Much love, brother.
129:25Much love. Thank you so much for sticking with me for so long, my friend.
129:29And maybe this is the year of the Bengals Super Bowl, but let me go through and pull up our team here. We
129:36did just have the Lamar injury, which absolutely sucks, man. We're going to have to go through. We're going to have to be looking at streaming quarterbacks
129:44this week. Justin Herbert has to play against Denver. Now, Denver does have some pretty serious injuries. The Chargers project score 19 and a half.
129:53Jordan Love plays against Chicago. Apply team total there is 21 and a half. So, honestly, I'd probably rather play Love
130:03over Herbert. And Sam Darnold plays against the NerS. And the Seahawks do project to score a considerable amount of points. So here I would probably pick
130:15up Jordan Love if I were you as again I think that there is a very real world in which you're needing to go through
130:22you're actually needing to start him um with no Lamar Jackson over the next few weeks. Running back we have JT Jeremiah Love. We have Emanuel Wilson,
130:33Zack Sherman Jadarian Price. So no matter what time of year it will be, we will have the starting running back for
130:40the Seattle Seahawks.
130:43Wide receiver we have Jefferson, Drake London, Carnell Tate,
130:54then we have the upside depth down on the bench of the rookies with Conception Mai Lemon and then we have Bowers and
131:00Loveland.
131:04I would say at this point with the injury that we have to Jeremiah Love again seems like there's a good chance
131:12he has to be fine this week but he did bang up the ankle especially if we have Jeremiah Love on our own roster. I do
131:19think it would make a lot of sense in us just going through playing it safe and picking up Tyler Alier and potentially
131:28just again playing it safe here by maybe going through and dropping like Chris Godwin or Jell Robinson. I don't really know the ceiling that we have from
131:40either one of those players to actually turn into a league winner or be much more than just a waiverwire filler
131:48at the very most.
131:53And then in terms of like trades we would want to make actually it's a three flex league so I understand actually
132:00yeah completely ignore me triple flex format like this there very much is a world in which you just say hey man um I need the depth wide
132:12receivers they could potentially actually be startable for us like you're definitely starting like Emanuel Wilson in this league with how deep it is right
132:20and there is an outside chance that you would start Chris Godwin at some point.
132:25Then you would go through and start Wand Del Robinson at some point. Even if you want to be super excited to do it.
132:33We're three and five.
132:35I wouldn't mind like with the depth mattering this much on a three and five roster throwing Lamar on the block and
132:45seeing if there's a world in which you could get a decent amount for him.
132:53Like if you could say sell Lamar Jackson and in return, get back some combination of a lesser
133:05quarterback like say Jared Goff, right?
133:09And then pick up an additional startable receiver like pick up Michael Wilson. I think that would make so much sense in a
133:16league like this with your team situation. pivot from Lamar to Trevor Lawrence and pick up like Jaylen Coker may not be enough here. Like if you
133:26could pick up B shell too, it would obviously be an absolute no-brainer. If you can go from Lamar down to like Jaden
133:32Daniels and then at the same time find a way for you to be able to pick up like Mike Evans, I think this could make
133:40sense. Going down from Lamar to Drake May and at the same time picking up Matthew Golden. I think this would be a clear
133:49win. So, because you have such deep starting lineup requirements and with the Lamar injury and with us having a losing record as is, if there were to be
133:59a trade to be made, I think that trade would be us going through and down tiering from Lamar Jackson to see if we
134:07can go ahead and get an additional player in our starting lineup.
134:12But I really appreciate you and hope that I was able to help you out in some way with this, my friend.
134:23Now, TRA just put Devont Smith in here, my friend. I'm going to send you over another free trade voucher so you can
134:30resubmit when you have an idea of what you want me to look at. Now, Fammy says, "Hey, Mason, big fan. Won the
134:37championship last year. currently two and two using the team review. Was 11th pick in the draft. Tried trading, but everyone kind of hates me since I keep
134:46winning the league. That is hilarious, man. Um, what's your advice? I play against the St. Brown owner this week and then the Chargers guy next week.
134:54Okay, so let's pull up the squad. We are currently two and two. We've scored the fifth most points in this 12 team
135:02league. We are currently ranked sixth according to the league analyzer on the site. I actually really like the team name, man. That is pretty good. Um,
135:12right now we have Tyler Shock and Jaylen Herz at quarterback. Not a bad spot to play the matchups at quarterback going
135:18into the future with these two guys. I am sure the expectations coming into the season were just that we are going to
135:24play Jaylen Herz every single week. But obviously it does look like things have changed with how disappointing the Philadelphia Eagles have been. Running
135:33back we have Christian McAffrey RB1. We are sitting with Chase Brown running back too. So completely fine spot to be in at RB. We have the handcuff of our
135:42guys with like Calumn Black down there.
135:44And then we have some other handcuffed running backs like Rico Dattle, Brian Robinson. I will say the true upside that you're going to get with Austin
135:53Eckler is so severely capped at this point of his NFL career that it's a pretty easy spot for me to go through
136:01and cut Austin Eckler. And honestly, just pick up Jordan Tyson off the waiverwire. Like realistically, if we're going to look at this, I do think that
136:11Jordan Tyson has the upside to win you your fantasy league. So, if it's completely free to pick him up, especially knowing that he could be back
136:19as early as week seven, most realistic is he is not going to be back until week eight. But still, regardless, u that
136:27would be something I would be very interested in. So, I would want to cut Eckler, pick up Tyson. wide receiver. We
136:34have a lav Devont Smith, Jameson Williams, Jaylen Coker, Jordan Addison.
136:38So, we have a lot of wide receiver depth, but we kind of need the wide receiver depth given the injuries that
136:43we have to guys like Devont Smith, Jaylen Coker on the by-week this week, of course. And then tight end, we have
136:49Coulson Lovelin, who's been incredibly disappointing. Way too late to sell Lovelin, though. You're just kind of stuck with him on your team, and we're
136:57stuck sending up a prayer that somehow someway that he can improve. And until then, we can also just cycle through these like waiverwire tight ends, these
137:05guys like Darren Waller at the same time.
137:09But I really appreciate you and hope that I was able to help you out in some way here, man. I think all in all, you
137:14have a pretty good team. I'd cut Eckler.
137:16I'd pick up Tyson. I think you hold on to the wide receiver depth because again, you're in a situation in which
137:22you kind of need it given your injuries.
137:25But I really appreciate you and I hope I was able to help you out in some way with this.
137:30Now, let me move this over to our next question. And this one is going to be from Bill to the Moon. Says, "Hey,
137:39Mason. Love the content. What should I be doing moving forward? I want to trade, but I don't know and would like
137:45some ideas. All the best." Thank you.
137:46Thank you, my friend. So, right now, we are the second team in the league analyzer, and honestly, you have a very
137:52well-balanced squad, man. You have Joe Burrow, Tyler Shuck. probably not going to be able to sell Tyler Shuck for much right now. Um, so you're probably stuck
138:01with this quarterback room as is, right?
138:04I will say I'm worried about both of them this week given the injuries that Joe Burrow has to his receivers and also
138:10for Tyler Shot given the match up that he has against the Minnesota Vikings.
138:14But in the long run, this will be a very strong quarterback room that you can play the matchups with. You're probably
138:19going to play Burrow most weeks, but still completely fine setup to be in.
138:23Now going over to running back, we have James Cook as well as Chase Brown. Very strong running back one, running back
138:29two combo. We have DeAndre Swift as well as RJ Harvey. A quality running back three and four pairing. Wide receiver, we have Higgins, injured, but Pickkins,
138:38wide receiver two, Watson, wide receiver three. I really like this wide receiver room. And then we have Harold Fannon at tight ends who obviously isn't the most
138:47exciting tight end in the world but you don't have the expendable value to go out there and trade for a better one. I
138:53think in the long run it probably will make sense for you to eventually look at making a move. Like I think that move
139:01would most likely be us wanting to trade away a wide receiver such as T. Higgins to maybe try to move over to get an
139:08elite tight ends. But the problem with that in the short term is we just simply don't have enough depth to get through
139:14it. So I think what you're gonna probably want to wait on is I think you're going to want to probably wait
139:25on getting Jordan Tyson into this team.
139:28And once that happens, I think we're leaving this as is.
139:51I'm sorry. Once that happens, we trade for a tight end. But until that happens, we're leaving this as is. But I really
139:57appreciate you and I hope I was able to help you out on some way in this man.
140:06Now Ben with our next question says, "Should I trade Gibbs to add young
140:16talent and picks? Offers are Judkins a 27 first and a 28 first. Coleman. If
140:26this is Jonah Coleman or Keon Coleman, they're use I don't say useless for Jonah Coleman, but I'd way rather have Judkins for a 27 first, 28 first, and a
140:36273rd. I'd way rather have the Judkins deal. Also offered Trevor Lawrence in a 28 first for Caleb Williams. Okay, so we
140:45are a strong rebuilder. We are 0 and8.
140:49I would say yes to a lot of these deals, man. If you're 0 and8 and you are highly incentivized to rebuild here,
140:58um it's enticing. I would at the very
141:14minimum make the Caleb for Trevor Lawrence in a 28 first move. I think that's something that you just have to do because in my opinion it's probably a
141:21clear win.
141:23Now the Gibbs question does come down a lot to where the Judkins picks are going to
141:33land because obviously you already know I mean we don't have to do a full-blown team review here. The thing is what kind
141:39of value could we get for Gibbs and long-term value? What kind of value could we get for Mahomes in long-term value? Right? So, where is the Judkins
141:48team? That's the thing that I want to figure out. If do we think this could be an early 27 first, then you may do it. Yeah, this team
141:59currently three and five. So, they offered Lawrence and their 2028 first for Caleb Williams. I think you make that play,
142:08man. And then in terms of the Gibbs to Judkins, they have their own 27 first and they
142:16have the 27 first from the Munich team, which where is that? And that team is seven and one. So here's the thing. You
142:25cannot trade for the 27 first from this team here. Like if they're trying to use this team's first that has Bejan,
142:32Taylor, Achan that's currently seven and one, you just completely ignore them.
142:42But if they're willing to sell their own, like here's the deal. Make the Caleb and then approach other people about a Jamir Gibbs trade.
142:51I would need at the very minimum the equivalent of three future first round picks in value for Jamir Gibbs. And hopefully you would get another piece
143:00added on to that as well.
143:09But I don't think I have anything else for you here, man.
143:19Hold off on Gibbs. Try to squeeze out a little bit more value. Make the Lawrence deal. And in general, yeah, it's a good
143:26idea for you to be making these trades where you're stacking those long-term future first. and um getting some value for some of these top end veterans now
143:37in a rebuilder.
143:39Okay, now next question from Everest.
143:42Trading away Javvante for Nico. I have them ranked backto back running back.
143:47You have enough production. Wide receiver you could use some more. So yeah, I have Nico one spot higher and for your team I think I'd rather have
143:54him. 20 says one and three. Lost my game because I had Kendrick Miller running back too. Any two for one deals given my
144:01situation? So yeah, right now we're in a very dire spot at running back. I would say that since it's a two receiver, one
144:09flex format, I don't love you trading away the best player. I don't love you giving up a Monroe St. Brown here, but
144:17this is a very fair price point to do.
144:20So trading St. Brown for Genty is a downgrade, but you are getting the additional piece with Garrett Wilson at the same time.
144:29So, yes, I think you probably go ahead and make this move, man.
144:38I appreciate you sticking with me for so damn long as well. I do want to give you a shout out for that because I know
144:44you've been with us forever. And yeah, in general, I don't love the idea of you down tiering in a two receiver, one flex
144:51format like this, but when you need this much help when it comes to the wide receiver position, I think you're fine with it.
145:01Okay, now going to T Pritch.
145:12Nothing is loading in here. So, um, let me see. Looks like you just didn't fill anything out. I'm going to send you over
145:19another free trade question for you to resubmit.
145:26Now, our next one's from Squan My Penn.
145:31We are trading away Matthew Golden for Michael Wilson.
145:51I have Michael Wilson ranked four spots higher in my wide receiver rankings. I think both of these guys are very strong
145:58buys.
146:03I don't know which one I would want though. They're in the same tier. I think this is a personal preference. I
146:08will say Michael Wilson's gonna be so damn high in my rankings this week because he does have just the literal dream matchup.
146:18Okay, now idealistic napkin trading away Wadd and Jawan for Rice. Here's the deal.
146:26Waddle and Rice are about the same for me and Jawan Johnson's absolutely balling.
146:32So, if you were to trade away Jawan Johnson, I think you need some more value than this, man, if I'm going to be
146:38honest.
146:41Now, Jeremy says, "We recently traded."
146:44Okay, that's not loading in right now.
146:46Let me refresh this real quick.
146:52I'm going to skip by that so it loads in later. Um, Puma is trading away Lamar Chuba Debo for Christian McCaffrey.
147:01We have Brock Party. Hell, if you got Perty, you make this deal, man.
147:07Again, I'm worried about the Lamar stuff with his ankle. Now, Aosco says two and one now in a Dynasty superflex six-point
147:15passing touchdown format and tight end premium league. Wondering how I should trust Jaden Daniels or if we should trade him
147:25and any upgrade ideas particularly tight end stuck with Pitts. Unsure about Ferg.
147:31It is Dynasty but also strong this year eyeing the waiverss. Do we drop Gino? I would not drop Gino here in a superflex
147:39six-point passing touchdown format. Um let me see where we're at. We are labeled as an all-in roster. That essentially means that we built around a
147:49lot of these older players like Chase Brown, Kairen, Aman Raw, Tieans, Michael Wilson, Mike Evans, right? And we're not necessarily in a spot in which we can
147:59say that we're playing for the long run.
148:02No, you're playing for this season here.
148:04We're trying to win right this second.
148:08Now, in terms of what's sitting out there on the waiverwire for us, um, this is a little bit of a different dynasty
148:13league where there are quality waiverwire options. You have like Carson Beck out there, JJ McCarthy, Tua, keep in mind, six-point passing, touchdown,
148:21superflex. Running back Dobbins is out there. Definitely don't need to pick him up. Travis Hunter, Romeo Dobs at wide receiver. You don't need to add them if
148:30you don't want to. And then tight end, we got guys like Max Cla, Kate Autton, Pat Frymuth, etc., etc. So, here's the
148:38interesting thing is this is a league in which you actually could decide that you wanted to stream tight end positions.
148:46The vast majority of dynasty leagues, you're not going to be in that spot.
148:50That's not going to be a possibility for you.
148:54I would say in regards of going through and deciding to sell Jaden Daniels, not something that I would be wanting to do
149:02personally just given the fact that like Daniel's going to play this week. You get one to two big games. I think a lot
149:09of people are going to move off of the Jaden Daniels injury stuff in their minds. But right now, that is what
149:15everybody is thinking about. That's your first thought when Jayen Daniels pops into your head. So, I wouldn't want to sell Daniels right now in terms of how
149:24we would want to adjust the tight end position. Here's the deal, man. You don't have a ton of depth down there on
149:31the bench that we could trade like right now. Like, who on this bench are you able to give up? Who on this bench are
149:38you actually able to sell for something?
149:40Raadre, no.
149:43Um, Jacobe, no. Wandell. No, nobody's trading you absolutely anything at all
149:52for these guys. So, what you most likely are going to do is You're most likely going to leave this
150:26team as is, try to win. Right now, you do have a team that's all in. I don't want to sell Daniels if the tight end
150:33position continues to be a massive struggle. We go through and we stream, but Pat Frymud at the moment is averaging nine fantasy points per game.
150:41So, it's not the worst thing in the world. Definitely not good, but not the worst thing in the world.
150:47But I'm wishing the best of luck here, my friend. I really am. Um, and yeah, thank you so much for being a member of
150:53the flock. I wish I had more for you, but I don't.
150:56Now, let's go over to our next question, and this one is going to be from Deites, who is trading away Jaylen Warren,
151:07Jaylen Wadd, Dalton Concincaid for Diggs as well as Bowers.
151:13This is an absolute no-brainer, man.
151:15Bowowers is by far and way the best asset in this deal, and it's not even really close. You absolutely have to do
151:20this.
151:23Yeah, I'm sorry, man, but you take this and you run for the hills, please.
151:31Okay, now Kaylor trading away Judkins for Barkley in a dynasty league. Hell to the no.
151:39Judkins verse Barkley and reddraft may be close in Dynasty. It's Judkins by a country mile.
151:48The love of God, please keep Quinnshan Judkins here.
151:53Now Giggles going Chase Brown to Taylor.
151:55Upgrade Watson to Pickkins. Lateral move up to you. You're paying Bree Hall to get it done. Here's the deal. In the
152:01vast majority of leagues, I just want to keep the Chase Brown side. But because this is an eight team format, with this
152:08being an eight team league, yeah, I think you'd probably go ahead and make this move.
152:17Okay.
152:19Now, our next question is going to be from Loafen B says, "Wanted to send Josh DS instead, but I'd be rocking a bum as my
152:30running back, too. Need a wide receiver.
152:34any trade ideas. I am currently sitting at 4 and 0.
152:41Okay, so looking at this, I may man, I'd rather have Luther Burden
152:53over DS.
152:56Like I would rather keep Burden send Josh Downs. Josh Downs at the moment's averaging 9.3 fantasy points per game.
153:06In comparison, Burton's at 11.7.
153:11Burton's the younger wide receiver I'd expect to get better over time.
153:16Tight end, we have Andrews, running back. Here's the deal. You can't make this trade, man.
153:22You're four and0. So, I mean, understand you have a little bit of flexibility where you could afford to lose some deals in the short term here,
153:30but man, on a 4-0 roster, like
153:41I would be down for going through and making a trade like this if you could also get back a long-term piece like
153:48Trevian Henderson or maybe Henderson something later in the year, but you But at the very minimum need like Henderson added in
153:57be a really tough spot to justify otherwise.
154:03Okay. Now our next question is going to be from Wedi says, "Hey Mason, currently one and
154:13three with the third most points scored and first in points against. I have two really tough matchups the next two weeks
154:23and even though I have a top three team I very easily could fall to one and five. Have any advice on what we should
154:30do with this roster? So yeah here man according to my rankings you have the best team in this league.
154:40You have Josh Allen at quarterback obviously absolute hammer running back we have Kenneth Walker.
154:49We have Alvin Kamara, Rico Dattle, Emit Johnson, wide receiver, Chase, Neighbors, Debo.
155:04Man, this is an incredible squad. You have Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Kenneth Walker, Josh Allen, Malik Neighbors all on the same team.
155:15That legit should not be possible here.
155:17It really shouldn't.
155:24Um, if I'm going through and trying to think through this, the big thing comes down
155:32to, do we get Jamar or Justin missing this week?
155:41If Chaser Jefferson missed this week and they have the by-week next week, there's a very real possibility that you just have to go through and you have to sell
155:52them at a discount for points right this second. Like you have to pivot off of say Jamar Chase for Aman Ross St. Brown.
156:02you have to pivot off of Justin Jefferson for Chris Ave if a lav is healthy.
156:09Again, not trades that I'd want to make.
156:12If your two guys look like they are going to play, but they have a by-week next week. If they missed this week,
156:19then all of a sudden you'll be put into a very difficult position in which like you possibly will be falling down
156:38to being a one and five team and it's damn tough to come back from one and five man. So, I think you have to
156:46monitor the practice reports and just make sure that we are going to get either Jamar or Jefferson playing. If either one's going to miss, I would
156:58throw them on the block and see if you can sell them for 90% of their value.
157:03But I really appreciate you and I hope I was able to help you out in some way with this, my friend.
157:11Now, Buchcci say Mason just subscribed to you last year and won two leagues from the videos on the website. Thank you for what you do in your health. No,
157:18thank you man. So, my quarterback's really struggling and my running back too is going to be weak when Rico comes back. I just got offered Dak Tutin and
157:25Diggs for Watson McGomery and Casey Conception.
157:29So, Watson to Tuton up to you. McGomery to Dak give me Dak Casey Conception to Digs up to you. Here's the deal, man. I
157:35wouldn't fault you for making that. Like if yeah your quarterback is Justin Herbert, getting Dak Prescott in is a significant significant upgrade.
157:51David Montgomery doesn't look startable right now.
157:58So I actually think that does make a considerable amount of sense for you here, man. Afterwards, you'd have Dak Prescott at quarterback. Running back,
158:06you'd have the combination of Ashton Genty, Beayshel Tutin, Jaylen Warden. So, you'd be chilling at RB. Wide receiver, you would still have JSN, Tagans, Malik
158:17Neighbors. Yeah, you lose Christian Watson, but he was potentially your wide receiver for tight end, you have Dalton Concincaid. So very clearly as you look
158:26at this team, the biggest concern that you have with it and the worst thing about it is your quarterback and running
158:33back rooms.
158:35But if you're able to make that trade, you fix
158:47quarterback while at the same time you fix running back.
159:04So, in my opinion, this is kind of a no-brainer here, man.
159:19I'm trying to think if there's anything else that we would have to say about it, but no, I think you make the trade. I
159:25think your team's much better off. I mean, you have an incredible team. you are currently sitting with the most value in this league. And I think
159:32ultimately what that does is it just kind of balances out a lot of the value across the roster.
159:39Okay, so let's go to our next question and this is going to be from Diamond King who is trading away Amari New Hampton,
159:50Nvant Smith as well as Lad McConi and in return getting back Jeremiah Love. So, here's the deal. Amari and Hampton is most likely nothing. Lad Man
160:01McConkey is most likely nothing and Avant Smith is currently injured. So, I completely understand you wanting to make this move. My big hesitation is
160:10this is a league in which wide receiver depth would matter a ton and looking at your wide receiver room afterwards, it
160:16would be straight up garbage, man. So, I understand where you're coming from with this. You can't afford to make it because depth does matter in your
160:25league. your wide receiver depth would be just horrific.
160:30So yeah, you don't make this trade.
160:32Again, I understand the thought process, but you can't do it.
160:37Now, going over to our next one. This is going to be from Jets NYC trading away George Pickkins and Jacobe
160:46Meyers for Devont Smith and Jordan Tyson. Pickkins to Devont Smith. Up to you.
160:56Jacobe to Tyson kind of up to you as well. If I had a winning record, I would go with the long-term Devonte Smith side. If I
161:08needed points right now, I'd probably prefer holding on to George Pickkins as well as Jacobe Myers here.
161:17Okay.
161:18Now, next question is from Ketu says, "Appreciate the channel. want to bolster the running back three for buys, but feel off giving Watson up. Do we make a
161:29trade or do we hold? I really appreciate you here, man. So, here's the godhonest truth that's painful for me to admit as
161:36somebody who has Christian Watson and I am heavily relying upon Christian Watson for my own fantasy team.
161:44The gap between Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, it may be nothing. They may be the same
161:54guy.
161:56And in that world, if you're selling Emanuel Wilson, I think this is a no-brainer. I hate
162:36selling Christian Watson, but getting Matthew Golden does feel really good at the same time.
162:42Now, Chicken Tindy's trading away Chase Brown, Justin Jefferson for Bucky and JSN.
162:47A Bucky looks horrific right now, but running back, you're pretty damn good.
162:52And it's a 10 team league where you're getting the best player in the deal. So, I think you make this trade. Not excited
162:58about adding Bucky to the squad, but like Bucky is the Trojan horse to allow us to get to Jackson Smith and Jig. But
163:05like the deal is if you take JS out, it's still not that bad. I'm sorry. If you take Bucky out, still not that bad.
163:13Now, Michael says, "Keep Wilson to cover the buys in weeks five and six or trade him away for rest of season upside." I
163:20think this very much comes down to your record.
163:23If you're one and three and you need the wins right now, you need the points right now, you probably can't afford to
163:28make this move. Now you're 3-1, you're 4-0, or hell, you're 2 and2 with decent replacement options, then Blake Cororm does give you way more
163:39upside in the long run. So you would go Cororum here.
163:47Okay, goes Tommy says double PBR Bejon Bidwart. He asked for this. Do I have enough depth? leftover you'd have Bejon
163:57Tuton Swift at running back. Wide receiver, you'd have JSN, Tate, AJ Brown. Here's the deal. You do have enough depth if you have a winning
164:05record because your depth in the short term is going to be a little bit questionable with AJ Brown and Jordan Tyson injured.
164:12In the long run, the depth will look pretty damn good once you have these wide receivers back in.
164:25But trying to think.
164:46Yeah, as long if you have like a one and four I mean a one and three record though, then it's probably tougher
164:51because you can't afford to wait until you get AJ Brown or Jordan Tyson back.
164:56Now Jeremy says, "Recently traded Justin Herbert and Emanuel Wilson for Trevor Lawrence and Christian Watson. Herbert to Lawrence upgrade. Emanuel Wilson to
165:04Christian Watson upgrade." Here's the deal, man. If you don't have the best team in this league after you just absolutely robbed your league mate. God
165:10dang. then traded Garrett Wilson, Avanta Smith, Christian Watson for Jamar Chase, Luther Burden.
165:18Holy L.
165:21Not too confident in my flex. Waiting for a quarterback to break out to use his trade bait as stronger flex option.
165:26Thanks, Mason. Thank you, man. Yeah, we do have the number one team in this league after this. Now, real quick, super easy to point out a couple
165:35different things in terms of premium handcuffs.
165:39If Genty goes down, I don't know if Mike Washington wins your league. Like the Raiders offense good. I don't know how
165:46good they are exactly. However, Kairen Williams goes down. Blake Cororm
166:00wins you your fantasy league. So, I'm going to assume that Jonah Coleman is on your injured reserve, so you can't cut
166:06him. But cut Mike Washington for Blake Cororm.
166:10And if and Kry Miller here as well, he played 26% of the snaps last night and scored 1.9 fantasy points. This dude
166:20isn't interesting to me. I would cut him for Kalum Black because if McAffrey goes down, I think Kayn Black can turn into a
166:27league winner. And obviously your big thing is you need to find a way to find a flex off waiverss. Again, I know you
166:35pointed out we are hoping that we can eventually sell a quarterback for a flex, which completely fine idea. Again, easier said than done, but it is a 14
166:46team format, so quarterbacks are going to be very thin. So, I don't think you need to make any massive trades now
166:52because here's the deal. You have Brillin Allen who you can flex in the short term with no Bree Hall. So, that
166:59kind of is I don't want to say a lifesaver for us.
167:04But it does make our life definitely a lot easier having Brilan Allen. I would cut the other two running backs, pick up
167:14Blake Cororm, and the second that you get an opportunity to trade either Jaylen Herz or Kyler Murray to get yourself an exciting player for your
167:26flex in the long run. It's probably something that you're going to need to do now. Of course,
167:58you're probably not going to be able to sell Kyler or Jaylen Herz for anything, right now with how bad they looked last
168:04week, but I really appreciate you and hope that I was able to help you out in some way with this.
168:15Now, Lance former, longtime member of the flock, says, "Running back room is bad other than Gibbs. Not sure what to do. Dropped all my fab this week on Ali.
168:26Otherwise, Alier Shipley. Rest of the team feels shaky, too. try to get May or Daniels as well. Also thought about trying to trade Nico for a running back
168:35and a receiver injured players and plan on for the back of the season. What are your thoughts? Well, if you're doing
168:41that, I hope you have a winning. Here's the deal, man. If you're two and two, you need a win right now. Right.
168:48Especially if you have Travis Tien currently injured, you have Jordan Mason currently injured. I'm gonna be honest.
168:54I really do not like the idea of you deciding to go through and you deciding to sell Nico Collins for other injured
169:02players.
169:06Feels pretty bad now.
169:14I thought you said you'd spent all your fab to pick up Olly Gordon.
169:19going through and looking at this right now.
169:25Oh, okay. You're saying no, we can drop all our fab to pick up Olli.
169:30Your waiver war is pretty strong. I don't think I would pick drop all our fab to be honest.
169:44Especially if you have the ability to go through and snag Jaden Daniels,
169:56Drake May, like these are enticing waiverwire pivots for me based on what we saw last week. I think I would cut Kenyan Sadiq for Jaden
170:08Daniels. I would place an aggressive bid to pick up Olly Gordon by cutting Trey Harris. I would also cut Dantavian Wixs
170:16for Mai Lemon for the late season upside.
170:23But in terms of trades, I don't think you do anything here, man.
170:30Especially do not trade away Nico Collins for long-term upside pieces.
170:37I think your team already has those long-term running backs that are going to improve as time goes on with ETN and
170:44Jordan Mason.
170:46If anything, I think your team needs to focus in on trying to find a way in which like we can win games right now,
170:56especially if Lad Mcconi like you also have Lad probably missing, Jordan Tyson missing the next few weeks still. So, you already have so many of these
171:05injured guys that are just long-term upside plays that please don't go out there. Don't
171:18make a move in which I don't know. [sighs]
171:45You just tank your season here in the short term before these injured guys can even make a difference and help you in
171:50the long term. But I really appreciate you and hope I was able to help you out in some way here, man.
171:57Now, I want to focus in real quick on the trade questions that we have. Let me see how many of those we're sitting
172:04with. We got a decent amount. Now, Jumberjack trading away Aaron Jones, Lamb, Marv for James Cook, Justin Jefferson. Lamb to James Cook. Downgrade
172:14Aaron Jones and Marv to Justin Jefferson. Massive upgrade. Be honest with you, if this is my team, I'd probably go Jefferson and Cook.
172:21Waiverwire Merchant trading away. Chase Brown to upgrade to Lamb. Neighbors to downgrade or lateral move to Tuton.
172:28Dvont Smith to downgrade to Jaylen Coker. I think you probably do this. I think Lamb's the best player in the deal
172:34and you're not losing massively at the second best option. Q Digital trading away neighbors to Parker Washington.
172:41Slight downgrade. DJ Moore to George Pickins. Pretty big upgrade. We're paying Joe Burrow to get it done. You have Bryce Young at quarterback. I'm
172:49going to mark this as a fair deal. I don't know if Bryce Young is somebody that we can be really excited about for
172:54the long term. I think he's had some really good matchups and looked really good, but the rushing upside still very shaky.
173:02Okay, now Assaf trading away Malik Neighbors Jawan Johnson for Bree and Jaylen Coker.
173:10So Neighbors to Bree up to you rest of season. Jawan for Coker up to you rest of season. Looking at tight end, we have
173:17Craft and we need help at running back.
173:20So, I think this is a fair trade. I could see it swinging either way, but given your current roster construction, completely understand you selling the
173:28tight end for an RB.
173:31Now, the Godfer trading away Olly Gordon, Christian Watson, Tyler Warren for McBride, and Hendo. I think you make this move, man. There is a tiny bit of
173:41speculation right now.
173:44I don't want to sound the alarms, but um there is a tiny bit of speculation that
174:05Remadre is banged up and that's why they had a running back coming in to visit New England this week. was like a play
174:10where it looked like Radre may have tweaked his ankle in the last game.
174:16Now Gabe Miller trading away JSN for Chase Brown, Jaylen Wadd. It's a 14 team start date format
174:26where your running back rooms cooked with Jordan Mason and Jadarian Price out. So here's the deal. Regular league, man, this is horrific. But in a super
174:36deep league where you have no running backs, I think you're fine making this trade.
174:44Now, shooter trading away Cam Scataboo, Michael Wils, Cam Scataboo, getting back Michael
174:55Wilson and DJ Moore.
174:57You have Gibbs and Kairen at running back, wide receiver. You have plenty of receiver production.
175:06I'm completely fine with you making this move, man. I don't think you have actually. It's a Dynasty League. I don't know. It's up to you, man. It is really
175:15up to you.
175:17It's a trade that you may regret this off season. Cosmic Gator looks like didn't fill out the rest of this. I'm
175:23going to send you over a free trade question voucher so you can resubmit.
175:26Now, New York Knicks says, "I get T for McGomery and Jonah Coleman. My running backs are Washington, Cororum, Gibbs, Mason.
175:35Here's the deal.
175:38Um, your running back room, it isn't good.
175:43Let's be on the same page here.
175:46But with that in mind, I don't know, man.
176:03Like, even if you're running back room is garbage, you probably got to make this move. You probably do.
176:12Sleek Drake trading away Raadre Jacobe Tyreek for Barkley.
176:18You're trading three nothings for Saquon. So yeah. Uh Brian trading Tate for Scat. I'd probably do that again. The Titans project to be the
176:28worst offense in the league this week.
176:29Like Tennessee is still horrific. TR trading away St. Brown to Kairen downgrade. But then you get flowers, an upgrade at tight ends, an upgrade for
176:41adept running back. So I think honestly you're getting enough al you there.
176:45Joshua trading away Lamb for Derrick Henry as well as Judkins. Running back, you're garbage. Wide receiver with the Higgins injury. You're not that that
176:56strong.
176:58I think this is a fine trade. Again, if I were to be trading for any Baltimore Ravens right now, though, I would want
177:05to be getting a discount given the uncertainty that we have with the Lamar injury. So, this is definitely an okay trade, don't get me wrong, but
177:17I'd probably prefer getting them at a discount. Now, Jets NYC trading away Kairen for McCaffrey. I have them relatively close, but I would
177:28still prefer CMC. Now, Belleranino, I mean Barl Leno, I can't read, trading away RJ Harvey and Matthew Golden for Saquon. Here's the deal. I think Matthew
177:39Golden and Saquon are similar rest of season.
177:42So, I probably wouldn't make this trade. I think there are so many red flags that we have in Philly right now. And Matthew
177:52Golden is a year two breakout wide receiver in a pass happy offense that's seeing 10 targets a game.
177:59So it'd be tough for me to do this.
178:04Now let's pull back those team reviews.
178:08We have one, two, three, four, five, six. We've been live for about 3 hours.
178:14So I'm probably going to call the live stream here. These team reviews will be the first thing that we look at in
178:19tomorrow's live stream. tomorrow's live stream, we will also be um starting to go through and starting to look at your start set questions as
178:30well. Um I apologize, but I have promised to Mrs. Flock that I'm going to stop live streaming until 2 in the
178:39morning. So, since I made that promise, we are probably going to be calling it wraps. Um, so yeah, I don't think I have anything
178:54else to say for tonight's live stream.
178:57Hopefully we get some positive injury update stuff tomorrow. What the big things we need to look out for will be the Jamar Chase update, the Justin
179:07Jefferson update, the Lamar Jackson updates. I mean, at least that's what I think is the most relevant. To be fair, I'm playing against Jamar Chase. I have
179:16Justin Jefferson on my own team. So, very selfishly, I hope that Jamar Chase prioritizes his health and he sits out this week with
179:27the concussion. They're playing the Miami Dolphins. They don't need him. I am really wishing the best for Jamar's long-term health again. And then in
179:37terms of Justin Jefferson, you can you can go out there and you can get it going, my friend.
179:46But yeah, I think that's all I got. Uh,
179:55appreciate you ladies and gentlemen and I hope that I get to see you out in the live
