0:00This is a good conversation starter. Yeah, so what's up?
0:03We're live. We're rolling. We were just talking about temperatures in our houses currently.
0:08Thermostat settings. Thermostat settings. I'm at 74 right now and everybody thought I was crazy.
0:12Yeah, yeah. Nobody's gonna accuse you of being fucking Mr.
0:15Freeze. It's a nice balmy in there in case you don't touch a bomb.
0:2074. What do you get with 60, 66? What kind of temperature are you going with over there?
0:2569 bro. I'm telling you. 69? It's 69 right now.
0:28Let me look on my thing. Bump it down to 68 at sleep time.
0:33Yeah. I mean, I'll give you a couple more degrees.
0:36I go four degrees less at sleep time. Whatever the temperature is.
0:40Same thing. I'm 72 during the day, but I'm 68 at night.
0:43But that's 74 stuff you're messing with, man. I come over there again a little bit.
0:48Yeah, it's I got both of them said it.
0:51I got both of them said it's 69 right now.
0:54Hmm. Hmm. Flexing that dual unit right there. You should see that that both of them flexing that dual unit.
1:01He flexing square footage right there. I got two units.
1:04I mean, I got a second. I got units of different temperatures.
1:08Yeah. Well, yeah. Do you set one to bake all your food on one floor and you have to live on the other one?
1:15I think this is crazy. They're in they're in unison.
1:18They're running the same 70 to 77 is normal.
1:21I keep it at 76 and Charleston is hot as shit during the day when nobody's here.
1:26And then, you know, we go 74 72 when we sleep.
1:30And then in the wintertime at 68 is where we hang out.
1:33And actually, I go up a little bit sometimes even when I sleep a little 70 when I go to bed.
1:40Yeah. No, in the wintertime. Yeah, it's gonna go up to it's gonna go up to 70 71.
1:46But I mean, here's the deal. I don't want to feel like a goddamn terrarium in my house.
1:51So I keep it pretty cool in the summertime.
1:54Once once I go down to like day temperature under 75 or four, I got blankets on what am I?
2:00What am I doing paying for that? Yes. I mean, that's why what separates us from the animals central reasoning and central heat and air.
2:08So I'm using. Yeah, yeah, I got I mean, I don't big big codes over there.
2:13I don't know what he's he's rolling be going to big coast house.
2:17It's got it's dark. It's all you see is the light of the thermostat.
2:22Yeah, the thermostat working because it's cool. I'll pay a power bill.
2:25I told you I'll pay a power bill. Turn turn all lights off.
2:29We're using we're using GoPros lights on them. But then he's gonna no fluorescence.
2:34No, nothing that's going to create more heat over here.
2:37No, whatever. I'm not opposed to paying for it.
2:40I'm just saying that's what I'm comfortable in. Like if I was on, I'm not gonna be living in a house where I'm uncomfortable with the temperature.
2:48But that's seventy six is a good daytime test.
2:51If you live in like we're out of shit.
2:54Seventy six is a good daytime. Now, if I was just outside and we all came back inside and it's been hot
3:01out, we'll bump that thing down two degrees. Get get get it rolling in there a little bit.
3:06But yeah, I'm gonna think you I'm gonna think you're trying to kill me if I come in from it being one hundred and twelve outside.
3:14Well, at first, it'll feel good at first. It'll feel good because this is like, holy shit.
3:20Yeah, and then you'll be like, I need a couple degrees.
3:23You got to catch a couple degrees. Yeah, I would know I'm I am a I'm damn near Arctic.
3:29I don't need I can't me and the heat don't do well together at all ever.
3:34Yeah, you know, I'm pretty pretty acclimated to the heat at this point being out in a lot.
3:40Anyway, let's get rolling here. Let's let's we're gonna talk some some dynasty trades.
3:44We're gonna answer some of your questions. Look at some mover rankings be all over the map today.
3:50But let's start off with as we're gonna start off a lot of these live streams with talking a little NFL talking
3:57about what we will have a power ranking graphic here in the next week or so.
4:02It's it's it's almost ready. It's just not quite where where we want it to be for display.
4:07So in the meantime. Top five teams in the league who we got who's who's number five or number one and whichever
4:14order you guys want to go in who's number one.
4:17Number one. I mean, I'll go. I'll go. Go ahead.
4:20Yeah, I'll go 49ers decent. Who you going one big co I'll go back to the chiefs.
4:26If the chiefs are good and Patrick Mahomes is I'll go back there somehow when it when a games matters Chris Jones
4:33is 25 again every time when anytime it needs to happen.
4:36He's 25 again. Yeah, so I'll go back to the chiefs until they show me they're not obviously last year down year,
4:43but I'll go back there with number one. It just seems like a nice smart money bet if we were we're betting
4:50on who getting the ring this year. Patty Mahomes.
4:53Yeah. Okay, so who would be number two Niners?
4:55Let's go Niners. Let's go. Let's go. Brock party to for you.
4:59Chef. I don't know how they can hold that though.
5:02The guys are dropping like flies over there. I mean, nobody's trying to bring back in Brandon cooks.
5:08I go. I go. Casey in that spot. Okay, so we're so everybody's kind of top two.
5:13We're saying Casey Niner somewhere in there about three and four in the three in the three spot.
5:19Jacksonville. Okay. Big co. The bears. No, no way.
5:22There is not. There is that I'm like, are we are the Vikings for real?
5:26Right. You know, like I don't I don't have a like for bills.
5:30Right. I don't believe I think if you're going to if you're going to give if you're going to give the chiefs
5:37that consideration, you got to give the bills that consideration or that.
5:41What's close enough or not? You know that not winning the big one.
5:45But yes, I would go back with the bills.
5:48I don't trust the Jags and I don't you know, I would I would say that you have that you in some order.
5:55I think you go bills. I think you go chiefs.
5:58I think you go Niners. I think you go Seahawks and then I think you could you could put Jacksonville in there.
6:05They are playing some pretty good football. I mean, who else would fight for like Jacksonville?
6:10I could see be like I'm not I don't know that anybody's terribly worried about Minnesota yet.
6:15I mean the defense is going to be a bummer regardless, but like Rams have have a couple of issues.
6:22I'm sure they'll get it figured out. But like throughout the rest of the league, there's nobody else where I'm like in
6:29the wet and AFC West Broncos got some figuring out to do Raiders and Chargers are mad.
6:34You know, nobody in the south right now is really a threat to Jacksonville.
6:38The north, you know, I think the Ravens are good, but I don't think that they're as good as those other teams that we mentioned.
6:46So here's my logic. Here's my logic for Jacksonville and I don't I.
6:50Okay, so they they've. They've crushed two teams with winning records or three teams with two teams winning records and they beat four teams.
6:58There are four wins are versus teams with winning records.
7:01They beat Cleveland who we thought was dog shit.
7:04They made them look like dog shit. They've actually been pretty decent.
7:07They lost at Denver in a game that they were ahead and then just momentum almost one and that crowd got involved and it got weird.
7:15Then they beat the breaks off of New England.
7:18They're called the dogs off Trevor Lawrence is kneeling at the one yard line with eight minutes left.
7:24Then they beat Cincinnati out that they go on the road at Cincinnati and beat Cincinnati.
7:29Yeah, I feel like they beat him pretty handily.
7:32They push. I mean, yeah, it's 22 to 10 and they scored a they scored a late touchdown to make it look better than what it was.
7:40That's why I didn't say that's why I didn't say crush.
7:44But I mean honestly, they they control the pace of the game.
7:47Yeah, it's like if it was boxing, it'd be a unanimous decision.
7:51Yeah, pretty comfortable. It's just as you're going to get that Jacksonville could go 13 and three or you know 14 of
7:58what I don't know how many games you play 28 now.
8:01The Jacks could just keep winning and we're not going to trust them until we see something in the postseason.
8:08That's just how it goes right. You got to show us something sure, but I mean I'm talking about let me we're
8:15talking about who's who's playing good right now. Who's hot right now.
8:18The Jacks are hot. Yeah. I mean like so but I mean I said I didn't trust the five and no Vikings
8:25team either, you know, I know but because you're watching it and it's not it's not this name.
8:31It doesn't look like the Jags for sure. Well, so we look at the 49ers 49ers number one in league and point differential.
8:38I was just I was just looking this up, but the 49ers number one in point differential.
8:43They have sustained all of the injuries that they have no Nick Bosa.
8:47Trent Williams leaves a game right like Christian McCaffrey is not being Christian McCaffrey per se or they're conserving him and they're
8:54losing the only healthy wide receiver right now is healthy Mike Evans.
8:58And we know how tenuous of a proposition proposition that is.
9:01I mean he could get hit with a case of tenderness at any point in time.
9:06Just hamstrings just falling off the bone. Just done.
9:09It's not even attached, but he's still 10 for 70 touch or two.
9:13Yeah, he's out there doing he's out there doing late stage Tony Gonzalez shit and like making memes, you know, making memes
9:20left and right out of Trayvon digs RIP. And so those are that's why I that's why I went that's why I went that direction just because Dave.
9:29I mean you talk about battle tested so far in the season and actually overcoming adversity.
9:34It's like yeah, yeah, and then but I mean we know a team that goes to five Super Bowls and they tell
9:41you they're four and oh they come out the gate for no you can't take that you can't sneeze at that because it's a revenge door right.
9:49So I'm with y'all. I just wanted to put a little respect on Jacksonville's name because they're doing it on both sides
9:56of the ball and like it's you know, yeah, I've changed the operation around a bunch.
10:01I'm not upset by putting Jacksonville in there as the fifth as the fifth team.
10:06I don't know where I would necessarily rank them per se and I don't have a strong ranking for any one of
10:13those teams, but I do feel like those are probably the strongest games right now.
10:17And we'll look back on some of those games that we're saying hey, this was a good winner a bad win at
10:24the end of the season and say oh, yeah, we thought that was a good win.
10:29But that was really just you know, you know a trash team playing it at a decent time.
10:35So somebody in the in the in the NFC North is going to come out of here looking like a real contender and tough to beat.
10:43I don't I don't think any of them are that they're all good right now, but I think all those other teams we mentioned.
10:51I don't think a lot of teams want to see them at this current juncture.
10:55Well right now, right? The scariest part is they're four and one and Lamar hasn't played Lamar and Zay have only played
11:02like six quarters together or something crazy like that.
11:05Like maybe names. Yeah. Yeah, and what's scarier is if the defense starts clicking with Jesse mentor, right?
11:11Yeah, yeah. Yeah, right. So the reason my take on the power rankings and I said this last year kind of when
11:17maybe me and Casey started doing power rankings at the beginning of the year first couple weeks.
11:23I still kept putting sheeps up there even though they weren't like, you know crushing it like if you got to play
11:30a game right now and it matters like yeah, I'd if you're looking for clickbait somebody could easily put Jacksonville in top
11:36two and you know do that and I'm not say I should have just laid out a ridiculously good argument for why
11:43the Jags are hot and we've it looks good and they've but like if you had to win a game that was
11:50pressure packed right this second like you know the Rams right Stafford McVay they've did like the Rams got the Rams could
11:57have beat Seattle in the playoffs last year. Dude, dude muffed the punt in the late in the fourth quarter in the
12:04year before that they almost beat the Eagles into snow right at the Eagles and like then Eagles go to the Super Bowl.
12:11Like so like the NFC teams that we think can win not that we believe to win a tough game Niners Rams
12:18Seattle Seattle and the Eagles outside of those four teams.
12:21I don't feel good about anybody going and playing a game under pressure with all the lights potentially Chicago if they could
12:28get it together because we've seen Caleb have some they did get young in that and we don't know we can't say for sure.
12:36Dude, you know, that's why I joked at three and I said to Bears because if Caleb Williams was healthy right now
12:42we'd be talking about Bears in a whole different light.
12:46Then you flip over to the AFC and you got to start with the Chiefs.
12:50You can start and stop with the Chiefs if you want to and then you talk about you know the Broncos and
12:57the Patriots of course like the Patriots just stayed there and they got right back when they got a coach and a quarterback and yada yada.
13:05But you know the Patriots I mean the Ravens and the Patriots was was you know for the first couple of weeks
13:12were like oh they look like garbage. It's falling apart.
13:15See that schedule was you know so easy and May's overrated and then they come out obviously you know they beat the Bills division rivals.
13:23So that's that's not like it's not like another AFC coming to team to come beat the Bills right.
13:29It's just different because they see each other twice a year.
13:32They know each other. It's just a different game when you know in division teams come to play each other.
13:39But then they blow out the Raiders this week, which we were all like maybe they're decent.
13:44You know what I mean? They got back on their ish that May was dropping bombs, you know, so it's week five going into week six here.
13:52But right now like you said, I think I think that's the best way to approach at least this week as we're
13:59at is like there's a couple there's a handful of teams where you know who they are for the most part just
14:06from their their record overall from years past and they're showing that hey, we're kind of right there again.
14:12And you know Sam Fran's pretty banged up. The Eagles are really banged up.
14:17A couple teams know it banged up. You know what what got stolen from us outside of the Bears so far because
14:23of Caleb getting hurt Jackson darted the Giants like them boys are playing so gritty.
14:28And if Jackson dart was healthy. Hmm. With that defensive line and what Jackson dark might have could have would have should have was about to be doing.
14:37That stole the storyline from us and they're still three in one and one.
14:41Then one. Yeah, I mean the giant hats off to the Giants.
14:45But you know, we'll see. We'll see. We'll not say they can win a game.
14:50Yeah, right. Right. Just say it if Jackson didn't get hurt.
14:53We might be talking about a team that was worthy talking about or maybe they're in the worst position.
14:59Doubt it. Doubt it too. But yeah, Anyhow, go ahead.
15:02Go ahead. She have him. We'll we'll we'll get to some some other chit chat.
15:07The NFC East is last year's NFC South. So, like whoever wins that division is just going to host a playoff game
15:14and lose to one of the NFC West teams.
15:17No doubt there is. Would you say which division the East?
15:20Yeah. I mean, there is a chance. I mean, nobody's going to be surprised if by week 17 Phillies rolling like, you know, we got a defense.
15:28The defense is still good. There's they're hanging in games with this defense.
15:32They should have beat the Jacksonville Jaguars this past week, like with nobody to throw to and a whole new operation and a whole new offense.
15:41Right. And, you know, no, no running back to speak of.
15:44So, you know, if we could see this, the ship.
15:47And I think once the focus is off of Philly, it, you know, where they're now they're back in, not an, I
15:54don't want to say an underdog role, but like, not like the hot team for everybody to be talking about.
16:00That just feels like a recipe for Philly to just come and punch you in the mouth.
16:06I'd like to hear what chef says about how many weeks it'll take to work through this office of line issue.
16:12But you're right. Casey, RB three comes out there and gets hurt this week.
16:17Right. RB one gone. RB two gone. RB two got hurt in the same game.
16:21I didn't even get a chance. I didn't even get tank Bixby.
16:25I didn't even get a chance to, to get tank Bixby.
16:28So much. Didn't even get to use them. They got the Xfinity center right down there next to that.
16:34Is that right? Jeez. No, I got, that's just what they call it.
16:38The Xfinity center is like the hockey, all the, all their stuff's like right in one little spot down on the river.
16:45Is that thing buzzing? Golly. Like, Hey, is the ground vibrating?
16:49Why? What's going on right now? I have a, no, I, I don't.
16:53What's the goal? If you get a, if you get a battery and a paperclip out there, you got some problems.
16:59The problem, the reason Philly, the reason the Philly thing feels so different is because the, the massive advantage that they walked
17:06into every game with was knowing that they could whoop everybody's ass in the running game.
17:11Yeah. That's gone. Yeah. And what, what, what they had in Devonta Smith and AJ Brown and the, just basically the autonomy that they got to operate with.
17:20They basically turned into old, the last couple of years of the Broncos, John Elway, where it's real day was just running rough shot over everybody.
17:28And that would have continued if they kept killing more, but they hired, you know, whoever that terrorist was they had last year.
17:35And it seems like Sean Mannion, it seems like Sean Mannion isn't quite, isn't.
17:40Well, I mean, I think you can, I think you can look at like, I think we offensive line, isn't quite what that was.
17:47And this is, and I've said this a few times, but from kind of what I've been gathering is all those guys
17:54had a very similar esque system that they ran.
17:57And Mannion's is completely different than what Hertz has had a lot of different coordinators, but like there was a lot of
18:04similarities and kind of what they were doing and the concepts.
18:07Whereas it seems like, at least from what I've heard that Mannion's whole operation and schematic approach is different.
18:13Yeah. So if that's going to take a minute and now you've, you've missed all your good play, you know, you got
18:20her, came right out and was hot and then he was hurt.
18:24And then, you know, you had some offensive line injuries and now, you know, one of your guys retires, you kind of
18:31had a sieve there at center guard and now Goddard's back.
18:34You missed Smith for a couple of weeks. Now, if you can get Smith and Goddard out there with the rookie and
18:41wicks and Cooper, maybe you can get this thing operating, you know, and, and potentially Barkley back.
18:46We shall see. I think you can get this again.
18:49I think if Philly could just get their offense operating at an even level, you know, kind of like we were talking
18:56about with like Houston, if they could get their offense to operate at an even level, they're probably pretty good.
19:03And so I think kind of the Philly defense and Fangio scheme is still good.
19:07They still give all sorts of people. I mean, at the end of the day, the Jags only down to the, what
19:14did they even score 20 points before the last second field goal?
19:18No, it's 19, 17. Yeah. So, I mean, it's still there.
19:21I wouldn't be, but we can't, I can't put them up in the ranks right now that they're, they're figuring things out.
19:28So, all right, let's, let's keep it moving here.
19:31We are into, like I said, week six, right.
19:34And we will answer a couple of questions tonight.
19:37But I want to talk about kind of like some theory, some philosophy, a little bit coming into this area of the season for your dynasty teams, right?
19:45You, you start having some questions and some questions answered.
19:49And I think it's, you get, you get an idea of kind of who you are and where you're at.
19:55And with redraft teams as well, but dynasty, you start figuring some things out.
19:59Like what to trade? What do I need? Where am I at?
20:03What are my picks looking like? Am I keeping them?
20:06Am I selling them? How are things going? You can get, take an overview of the league.
20:11Have I, have I not gotten the right combination of starters in there?
20:15Is it, is it good? Do I, every week, am I missing 20 points that are sitting here?
20:21That would be the difference of me being undefeated or, you know, four and one.
20:26And I'm sitting here at two and three or one and four.
20:29And I could see the path of, Hey, I could rip off two or three pretty easily.
20:35So when you guys get to these points in your seasons, like what is, what is something that is an indicator for
20:42you guys, whether or not you want to kind of push some chips in or kind of coast or, or sell some
20:49pieces or have you guys reached that point yet?
20:51Or how are we through week six weeks here?
20:54And after we kind of answer this question, we could talk about maybe some, some players, some pieces to either buy or sell.
21:01But I kind of want to theorize a little bit here with how you guys move.
21:06Now that we're like, you have some questions and some answers as far as, and, and you're starting to like, we talked
21:13about with all these NFL teams, you're starting to see who teams are, how they're using guys, what they look like tendencies, all sorts of things.
21:21Uh, and you can start writing new narratives of actual football being played.
21:25Yeah. I look at, I look at where I'm at in terms of points for, I don't necessarily care if I'm born
21:32one or, you know, one in four, if I'm first or second in points scored and I'm one in four, I'm like, all right, cool.
21:40We can turn this thing around and my roster's healthy.
21:43Yeah. All right, cool. We can turn this thing around.
21:46I'm four in one, but I'm like ninth in points scored.
21:50And I don't have, I'm not going to have a bunch of injuries that I'm waiting on people to come back.
21:56And I just been fortunate to play low scoring teams.
21:59Then I am, I'm going to get out ahead of it.
22:03And people are going to ask because they're not paying attention to points scored.
22:07Hey, what are you doing? Your team's a really good spot, man.
22:11What are you like? Hey, I'm not, this isn't, this is probably not sustainable unless I just go on like an 85
22:18bears run where I, my magically hold all my opponents to less than the league average.
22:23And if you're playing league median, you're going to get exposed anyway.
22:27So I'm looking at, I'm looking at points, like my points scored.
22:30And then what I have in the tank, I can be honest with myself and say, Hey, if Tony Pollard's my RB
22:37too, I'm probably not winning anything anytime soon. Like I, I, that's, that's a move that I need to make, you know?
22:44And that's just, that's me as a Titans fan, just looking at it and being like, all right, well, I probably need
22:51to get this dude off my team pretty quickly.
22:54So that's just, that's my personal approach. Like I'm not going to get too caught up in, Oh, I have a really good record.
23:01I'm looking at how is my team actually performing.
23:04And then that way, once people realize, you know, record can hide people from actually realizing like, Oh, this dude's team's not actually good.
23:12And when they think your team's not actually good, then the vultures just weren't like swooping or whatever, swirling, I guess.
23:18I don't know. What do they do? What is it called?
23:22Circling. Oh, they circle. Yeah. Yeah. They're not circling above your head, trying to pick you off for, you know, pennies on
23:29the dollar because they know that you're trying to best your draft position.
23:33So like I would, that's what I'm looking at the first six weeks of the season.
23:38Like I'm, I'm actively evaluating how many points score, how many points am I scoring versus everybody else in the league?
23:44I'm not one of the best teams. If I am one of the best teams and I'm not scoring a lot of
23:51points, then I would just be like, all right, well, what's my prognosis for it to turn around?
23:57Yeah. What'd you think? Big co what's we're about to go into week six here.
24:01How are you, how are you gauging your dynasty teams of, of moves to make essentially?
24:06Yeah. I like what shit shit shit about how much I got in the tank, right?
24:11You know, like I, if you got, um, I got a couple of teams that have patched together, good starting lineups and
24:18don't have a whole lot of depth. And, um, you know, scared to give away my first round pick next year to
24:25better myself, because I know that all it takes is a couple of weeks.
24:30And, you know, I think one of my teams lost a Chan and Brees Hall in the same week, et cetera, you
24:36know, like it doesn't take long to get some injuries piling up.
24:40Right. Um, but I got, we, you got, you and I got a team together in FFPC and we got ridiculous about starters on the bench.
24:48We can't even get, you know, we're, we're having, we're pulling our hair out, trying to figure out how to bench good
24:55players to put other good players in the lineup.
24:58So those are ones where we got to really put our, we got to put the prop, make it a priority to
25:05trade up, you know, to trade two for one or three for two or three for one, trying to get, trying to get a level up in studs.
25:14You know? So if you got a good team with depth and you're like, you know, that, that team, we're number one in points.
25:21We're number one in victory points right now. So if the playoffs started today, we'd be number one seed and get, get, you know, our buy-in back.
25:30And so like, that's the team where we need to try to make some moves and get a little better for this year.
25:37But at the same time, like I, I keep coming back to, we get into playoffs and you're going to luck's going to happen or not.
25:45Right. And especially week six, we're already a third of the way through this thing, but you know, do you, is your team good?
25:52And you just got Puka back, right? You about to be, you about to be nasty.
25:57Um, is your team good? And you just lost Reese hall and, and HN.
26:02And now Tony Paul, as you're only running back, maybe you need to just trade out and try to, you know, create a hole in your lineup.
26:10So you can tank and get down there and, and get a good draft pick.
26:15Or maybe you can pick up, you know, running back for cheap.
26:19It, it, it's so team for specific, obviously. Right.
26:21Um, but I just, I try not to go crazy and just spending, you know, if I'm four and one or I'm
26:28five and one or whatever next week. And I'm, I'm trying not to like, just absolutely empty the clip halfway through.
26:35There's still injuries that can happen and, or you don't, you know, you get to the playoffs and you get knocked out
26:42in the first round and you're like, all right, well, that was fun, but I got third place.
26:47Right. Or fourth place. And you still, you, there's a still a lot of football to be played.
26:53Right. So I, I love the idea of thinking my team's good.
26:57Um, adapt. I got an F five. I got a team where I don't, I don't have a lot of depth, but
27:04I, my starting lineup is pretty nasty. And I got offered Christian McCaffrey this week.
27:08And I don't, I just said, I thought I was going to be down in the, in the dumps one more year for a good draft pick.
27:17So I'm middle of the top of play. I think if playoffs started right now, it might be the third team in
27:24the playoffs and, you know, got, got some guys are healthy this year.
27:28Last year, my whole team was on the IR.
27:31So I actually might make the playoffs this year, but I didn't necessarily want to.
27:35So I'm not really trying to, trade away too much for Christian McCaffrey, right?
27:40The second now in four more weeks, all of a sudden, if I'm seven and three and like, if when the most
27:46points scored and I got a starter on my bench, I can start trading away some draft picks for CMC.
27:53That might be another story. Yeah. Yeah. I like it.
27:56All right. Just wanted to touch, touch on that for a minute and just kind of see a, we're, we're, we've kind
28:03of got a nice chunk of the season. You're starting to figure some things out.
28:07What's a good approach. Cause this is definitely the time where I, you know, I've, I've got in a lot of leagues,
28:14I've got two or three trades out depending on where I'm at with, you know, that league.
28:20And I got some leagues where I'm still pushing to win and I'm, I'm one in four or two and three.
28:26Like you said, Chev, it's a good team. I just couldn't quite get the lineup, right?
28:31I'm scoring points. And, you know, then it's, you also have to look at other people's lineups and how they've been winning.
28:38And like, is that points for guy, did he just have a blow up game or two in there?
28:44And like, he's going to level back out or is that, is he just, does that thing just keep compounding and we're just chasing them?
28:52Right. Yeah. Does he have Kenny Walker and JSN and you don't have a chance that guy?
28:57Yeah. You know? Right. Exactly. Um, so anyhow. All right.
29:00We got some news this week. Me and me and, uh, Stan talked about it on the Monday show.
29:06Uh, I did not podcast with Chev and Jeremiah yesterday on the redraft show.
29:11So I don't know if you guys talked about it, but, um, if we pull up the trade database, getting real close
29:17to going over 300,000 there, uh, trades in the, in the, in the database there and 6,500, about to be 6,600 trades
29:24where we, we're revamping the league sink. So that's been a big issue for us.
29:29And it seems to be working better and better, faster and faster updating, um, uh, with, you know, making sure everything's there when, when things update.
29:37So appreciate everybody sticking with us. Go, go sync your leagues, join the, uh, the trade database here.
29:43Bunch of other things you can do with it.
29:46Power rankings, all sorts of other great stuff at the FF dynasty.com.
29:49But if we jump into this, we can see, you know, here's your top, here's the most traded players in the database.
29:56We got a Chan, we got Marvin Harrison. Um, and you know, there's a bunch of other names there, but I wanted to stop on the Marv thing.
30:05Obviously that's, that's the big news this week. Marv gets traded to the Houston Texans.
30:10Um, how's that? What does that do for us?
30:12Um, you know, I know if you've listened to the Monday show, you've kind of, you know, I heard my initial take
30:19a little bit on, on what it does for Marv, but I'm interested to see kind of what you guys have to say.
30:27you know, I don't think anybody's here, excuse me, has been necessarily a Marv hater.
30:31Um, uh, there's, there's plenty of that out there, but I think some, maybe lukewarm.
30:36And at some point you do have to be a little lukewarm, but for the first couple of things we're seeing in
30:43Houston, there's all sorts of people upset of, of the effort level.
30:47He's already giving Houston. Um, but generally, what do you think this does for Marv?
30:51If you're a Marv holder, how are you playing this?
30:54First? I was down and then I was back up.
30:57He's up. Yeah. We, we, we Casey, we talked about this.
31:01Like I, I said this maybe a year, year and some change ago, the way that Arizona is set up, I don't
31:08know that it was ever set up for more to, the press to get the best version of Marv in that regime.
31:15Now they switch regimes and it, it got worse than we ever could have imagined where he just wasn't a part of the progression anymore.
31:22And they tanked his value before trading him, which is one of the dumbest things you could possibly do.
31:28So I struggle with, I struggled with like, where, what are, what are we seeing here?
31:33And is that the truth about this player? Do I have enough in, do I have enough evidence to the contrary that
31:40he's not a guy who's just capable of one catch for 13 yards and a touchdown to, to buy back in.
31:47And if the price is mid to late seconds for Marv, I am about to go on a rampage of acquiring as much Marvin Harrison as humanly possible.
31:56Now on the football side of it, on the football side of it, I think this is perfect because you're with a true alpha X wide receiver.
32:04You're surrounded by really good players. Jalen Noel, really good player.
32:08Hasn't really, hasn't, hasn't broken out, but I mean, he's had really solid weeks the last couple of weeks.
32:13You see why they took him, you know, the third round.
32:17Nico is very clearly an alpha. There's no question about that.
32:20I mean, I don't, and there's utility. So him and Marv, once he learns the offense could become interchangeable or they could
32:27just line Marv up at X and let, let Nico play off the ball, play Z.
32:32And that brings another function to the offense. And they've been one of the most throw heavy teams in the league.
32:39I don't think that's changing with the absence of David Montgomery.
32:42There were ninth in attempts last year. I believe they're in the top 10 again this year.
32:48CJ Stroud looks way more confident. I put in the group chat earlier today, is CJ Stroud playing better than Bo Nix right now?
32:55I don't think anybody can objectively say that CJ Stroud is not performing better than Bo Nix, despite their record.
33:01It's like, you just watch them play football. You know what I'm saying?
33:05So this has to be, and on top of all that, someone texts me and they ask like, are you, are you buying into this whole Houston thing?
33:14It's like, well, he's back with his college roommate.
33:17So that tells me two things. One, CJ Stroud has more organizational pool than we think.
33:22He's about to get, and two, he's about to get paid.
33:25Like they don't make a move like that. That's right.
33:28They don't make a move like that. If there's, if CJ Stroud is not their guy and he got, they go and
33:35get his college roommate, his former college teammate, who he had incredible chemistry with, who's not going to throw him under the
33:42bus or throw a temper tantrum, everything, every time something doesn't go right, like Kyler did.
33:47So all that to say, I am really excited to see what, catch the strays somehow.
33:52If there was, if there's a, Hey, if there's a million Kyler haters, I'm one of them.
33:58I'm the biggest one. Kyler just called him. If there's only, if there's only two, I'm still the biggest one.
34:04If there ain't no more, that means that I'm on the other side of the dirt.
34:09So I, I just, I think that this is going to work out really, really well for Marv.
34:14And I'm excited to see what it can do in, in an environment where they're going to do everything they can to
34:21maximize these next two years to figure out for him and them.
34:25It's imperative that this works in some way, shape or form.
34:28Yeah. So that's kind of my, that's my thought.
34:31Um, there's a lot that should have just pointed out that I've liked the even kill quarterback as in, you know what CJ Stroud brings to the table.
34:40I, I think that's a really nice point out, but the also at the end, like, um, just.
34:46You have to try it. Like this is, there's, we could go down the list and probably pick out eight or 10
34:53teams that haven't done something like this for their hopeful franchise quarterback.
34:56Like you have to try and see if CJ Stroud is really the guy this is.
35:01And for what they're just now paying for the potential and the elite prospect, this guy's a top five draft pick.
35:08They just gave up. They just gave up, you know, a second round, hit like some scraps, you know?
35:14I mean, at an NFL is different. Oh, you know, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we, we get hardly nothing of it.
35:23You know? So the fact they got a second round pick back is, is, you know, good for the cards and it
35:29shows what the Texans were trying to do. And this is a move that like, Obviously, when Marv's getting traded, we don't know who it is yet.
35:38I could probably have picked five or ten teams that I would rather see him go to for Marv's stats next week
35:45or in three or four weeks when he gets caught up to speed.
35:49But that is a good point about the college teammate and C.J.
35:53Stroud. If C.J. Stroud can just go back to 85% rookie year C.J.
35:57Stroud, we could come again. I think we're there.
35:59That's what I'm saying. He has. But yes, but Nico took his time off already this year.
36:05No shade of Nico. I love me some Nico, but he already missed his two games.
36:10And C.J. Stroud, for all intents and purposes at this point, they don't have a whole lot in the backfield.
36:16They got a little spark with a guy that they didn't pay nothing for.
36:20And then Monte ain't the same. He ain't what we wanted him to be when he came over there, nicked up or not.
36:28Offensive line, you can't have all the best players on the defensive line in the league and then your offensive line be good too.
36:35That's how it works. There's a trade-off. So Texas has got to do something about that offensive line.
36:41Good for them for making the move. And I don't think they paid.
36:45If the first practice rep, with him running full speed, yes.
36:48Made some people in Arizona mad, but they said he made him mad first.
36:53They didn't get some stupid $50,000 passing machine that he wanted.
36:56Some special jugs machine. It's like, yeah, you picked me top five.
37:00Why didn't he go back with his own money too?
37:03There's a lot of points. He did. Oh, he did?
37:06Okay. Yes. I didn't see that part. But it's like, yeah, like a lot of fingers to point in Arizona right now.
37:13I enjoy the conversation about CJ Stroud and where he may go in the future.
37:18Sorry, man. One of my daughters is just bombing the comments.
37:21Good for you. Appreciate you. Yeah. I appreciate you.
37:24I got to see his comments. Is it? Shev is so handsome.
37:28No, it's, it's. So they have, they have their own YouTube account under my wife.
37:32And I love it. Good work and keep up the pod and the hard work.
37:37But look at that. That's a family thing, you know, support.
37:40Appreciate you, sweetheart. I love that. I love that.
37:43Got to support the team. Yeah. Love podcasts for life.
37:46Love this. Now, does that mean we're a little bit more censored than we were five minutes ago?
37:52I think, I think we need to. I guarantee you.
37:55I guarantee you. She's heard worse. So. We'll be okay.
37:58Appreciate it. Love, love the love. Yeah. No, all, a lot of good points there on, on Marv.
38:04My only struggle with him. Like, I think there's going to be an uptick and people, I think, you know, on the
38:11Monday show, I said, there's going to be a point in the season here this season where people are going, where is this Marv?
38:18You know, and. You know, I think that's coming.
38:21I don't, I don't think there's any way around it.
38:24I will say one counterpoint. And I agree with you, Shev, that CJ has a lot.
38:29And because you kind of hinted at it, CJ's got a lot of pool and he's staying around, I think for the most part.
38:37But also we traded a second to see, to, to surround him with a little more talent to make sure we want to pay him.
38:45Right. So it's twofold for them. And you kind of were alluding to that.
38:49You had to do it. You had to do it.
38:52It was a great move by the Texas to make, Hey, we, we did all we can do.
38:58And if CJ goes back to fizzling, maybe they don't give him 150 million guaranteed.
39:02Cause their last three contracts that went out for quarterbacks like that, the teams have regretted it, but it's, it's, it's, we
39:09could say we could do the contract thing another day, but he's going to get like Dak money.
39:15Like if he has a good season this year, I don't think there's any way around it.
39:20Right. Yeah. Like it's, it's a, but they have, you know, they've got control contractual control for at least the next two years.
39:27Right. Yeah. They got the option. Yeah. And then play the franchise tag game.
39:32So I think they're going to turn it around.
39:35I still think they're going to make the playoffs as a wildcard team, potentially.
39:39I mean, it just, that's a team that I'm there.
39:42There that's the, from a fantasy perspective, this is the one in four team that I'm, I'm willing to bet on.
39:49Yeah. Yeah. I mean, look, my, I guess my concern, Marvin Harrison wise dynasty value wise, like it wants the ship rights
39:55a little bit and he gets, you know, I think they got two games and a buy.
40:01I think, I think they play Jacksonville giants and have a buy.
40:05I think. And after that, I would, I would fully expect, you know, wheels to be pretty decent target volume going to, to Marv, right.
40:12Every game. Um, and once that happens and if it looks good and people are back in and all of a sudden it's like, Oh, this is Marv.
40:21Do you sell? Because like what I worry about is just it being a little muddy next year of saying if Jaden
40:28Higgins comes back and you got Noel in the mix and you've got, you know, I don't know if the, you know,
40:35maybe Klein steps up or maybe Schultz comes back.
40:38I don't know what Schultz's contract, but like all of a sudden, could you be back in a position where Marv target
40:45volume is sort of like, and I'm not going to, it's not going to go back to where it was in Arizona.
40:51I don't think. Right. But like, could we be in a position next year?
40:56If Jaden Higgins is as good as we think he is where we're, where we're head scratching on, on some games and
41:03we're fighting the same, cause the stink is going to be on Marv for a while, but there's going to be enough
41:10people to want to buy in it a little lower than we think once the value starts going back up, not thinking
41:16maybe in terms of next year and Jaden Higgins being back and maybe interrupting some of this volume.
41:22Is there any cause for concern about that? Or am I making too much of it?
41:27I think you're, I think you're going off the reservation a bit here.
41:31All right. This is one of the, this is one of, this has been one of the past heaviest teams in the league.
41:38I'm pulling it up right now, but he had one game where he threw it 55 times.
41:44I think. Right. The rest of them have been, you know, much, not much lower than 55, which isn't hard to do, but right now they're eighth.
41:52They're eighth in the league. He, he's eighth in the league in attempts and adding more with a healthy Jaden Higgins.
41:59They're probably going to stay in the top, in the top 10.
42:02And so Chicago. So to me, this could work out a lot like the Chicago thing, but with one less mouth to
42:09feed and no run game to worry about. So I would be, would there be some games where he's not, it's just
42:16not going to be his, his turn. Sure. But I, but I still would be betting on him.
42:22If this goes well, I would continue to bet on him to, for it to go well and him to be a
42:2912 or 13, you know, 12 or 13 point a game score, like worst case Josh downs, but with good, like good touchdown upside.
42:36Like what? So, so if, if we rebound and we say, Hey, we can get a first, let's call it, you know,
42:43nine through 12, seven through 12 for Marv on the back end of this season from somebody would we, would we, would
42:50we be selling it or would we be buying it?
42:53I would. You bet. What you got ship. Oh, go, go, go, go.
42:57I need to see what, like, you give me a couple of games in a bi-week.
43:02What does that next four weeks look like? If this dude, is this dude a demon?
43:07Is this dude unguardable all of a sudden? If he, if he, you know, like, is he ridiculous?
43:13Then maybe I'm going to need a top half of the first round pick to get rid of him.
43:19But if he's just, you know, six for 70 kind of guy and he's looking, he's, he's better than just a guy,
43:26but he's not a top five wide receiver in NFL top 10.
43:29There's some good ones, you know, like I could, I could, and assuming you got your first round pick and you trade Marvin, you get another one.
43:38Now you got two first. Like there's just so much more.
43:41Now the first round pick, now the first, now the rookie drafts so much more fun for you next year after having,
43:48which is what you're saying, Casey, after carrying around a bag of crap for two years, you know?
43:54So just a bag of crap that just kept getting stinkier and stinkier and stinkier.
43:58And all of a sudden smells a little rosy for a couple of weeks.
44:03That's what you're saying. Yes. I'm fine. I'm fine.
44:06Getting rid of getting selling more for a first round pick early.
44:09You know, if there's a chance, it's not the one 12, that's the better, you know, the worst team, the better, right?
44:16I hate to give them to, I wouldn't, I wouldn't offer them to the best team in the league.
44:22First, let's go back to the old school, you know, methodology here.
44:26Yeah. You got to go look, got it. You got to at least offer him to a mid range guy.
44:32You got to make, offer him to somebody that might miss the playoffs.
44:36Like that first team in the playoffs. Don't offer him to ship's team out there on 12 and two, you know, but
44:43anyway, I would, I would definitely be looking out for a chance to get a, a mid to late first round pick.
44:50If for Marv, if it presents itself, not in the circumstance of, Oh my God, look, this really is a generational talent.
44:57And it was so bad in Arizona from the word go, nothing happened.
45:01And he was just like, I just need to get out of here healthy.
45:05Cause this ain't what, uh, this ain't gonna work for me, you know?
45:09And let's, let's see what it looks like for a couple of weeks.
45:13And if it looks ridiculous, then maybe you got to give him a chance.
45:18But if the first round pick comes my way from Marv, I'm going to have a hard time not taking it.
45:24I mean, go final, final go around here. No, man.
45:27I just, I think that, I mean, I think that's the, I think that's the safe way to play it.
45:34Now, if you want to turn the fun meter up, let's, let's play this out.
45:38Let's say, let's say that over the course of the next 12 games or however many games they got left, he comes
45:45out and he puts up, you know, 700 yards, but he scores eight or nine touchdowns, which is something that he's been really good at doing.
45:53Like he's been efficient in the red zone, despite the middle of field drops or whatever, what have you, he's been pretty good at scoring touchdowns.
46:02If he, so if he just shows off the contested catch prowess that he had at Ohio state, and then we're going
46:08into, I mean, I'm pretty sure they're not going to exercise his fifth year option.
46:13So like, I just, I think it could get, I think we could rebound here pretty hard and then just get him
46:20back on the right path of being, you know, maybe he's not, maybe he's not generational.
46:25Maybe he's just, he's just a really good player.
46:28Maybe like if he gives us multiple Jacoby Meyer seasons, are you going to be that you'd be disappointed, but it's rebounded
46:35from where his value is right now, which is basically the Cardinals telling you he's fucking unplayable.
46:40Yeah. Well, I think that's the floor, honestly, like, you know, that's what I'm saying.
46:45Well, that this is the ultimate buy, buy for a two, sell for a one scenario.
46:50Yeah. That perfectly succinct. We can move on. Yeah.
46:52Marv Harrison or Jonah Coleman? Marv. Coleman. I'll stick with Marv because it's exciting right now.
46:57Marv or Casey Concepcion? No. Casey. Casey. Marv or Antonio Williams?
47:01Marv. Tough. Yeah. Probably Marv. It's tough. It's tough.
47:04I'm going to go Marv right now, but Antonio Williams.
47:07It's getting aggressive. If that touchdown two weeks ago didn't get called back for Antonio Williams.
47:12It'd be Antonio Williams. Yes, sir. They didn't even put that in.
47:16They didn't even, they didn't even put that in the sleeper report.
47:19Like it sleeper. Didn't even put that in this little bio.
47:23Like when you click on his name, they missed it.
47:26And it was like, yeah, they weren't watching. Like, dude, just, just put that in there.
47:31Oh, he had a 80 yard touchdown called back to a holding call.
47:35So, you know, so it wasn't holding. It was like a legal, illegal formation or something.
47:40So it was just, it was just him out there being a dog and somebody on the line too far.
47:46He's ridiculous. You know, it was, yeah, I mean, I can see that.
47:50See some Parker Washington and old Antonio Williams. Yeah, boy.
47:53Marv or Rashi. It's still Rashi. It's still Rashi.
47:56Right. Marv Harrison or Penix. Love that. Du-rag. Captain Du-rag on the, on the rebound.
48:01Is Penix going to stay with Stefanski? Give me Stefanski.
48:04I mean, well, listen, here's the thing. Michael Penix might actually be good.
48:08We have multiple instances now of Zach Robinson just coming in and just taking a big old dump on quarterbacks fantasy value.
48:15Kurt Cousins looked like crap. Michael Penix also looked like poop.
48:18Baker Mayfield, what does he look like this year, guys?
48:22Not so great. Yep. And that was one of the best offensive lines in the NFL and they don't have any answers to get rid of the ball.
48:30So you're on the watch list, Zach Robinson. Keep this up.
48:34Keep this up and you're going to be on the outcoach list.
48:38Yeah. I mean, I think this is just a better fit for what Penix is good at.
48:43Yeah. You know, just running this offense and, and we, you know, we've barely scratched the surface.
48:48Unfortunately, he didn't get to finish this last game too.
48:51It comes in, throws a pick. Um, we know if Penix is around at Drake London is a wide receiver one.
48:58Um, we've got to get panic. We've got to get pits rolling a little bit.
49:03Bijan's obviously awesome. This offensive line is so much fun.
49:06The defense is getting after it. Uh, so I think I got, this is a tough one.
49:11I had to go ahead. We had Stefanski quarterbackless with Nick Chubb making waves.
49:15And then obviously Chubb gets old. It happens 17, the injuries and he kept coming out.
49:20Love that guy. And then he gets B John Robinson.
49:23Stefanski goes and gets B John. To run his system with.
49:27And now Penix comes in there and looks like a night.
49:30I mean, go, go ask the Packers what Penix looks like, you know?
49:34And, and then who'd he beat up the week after that?
49:38I haven't, um, shoot. Who was that? Just tore somebody else.
49:41Just tore somebody else up. Um, so I mean, in the smallest sample with this coach, offensive coordinator situation, Stefanski and B John Robinson is magic right now.
49:50The saints, the saints. Yeah. And the dome coming blasted them.
49:53Yeah. On the anniversary of the Katrina game or whatever, the 20, whatever that end of 20th anniversary or something like that.
50:00Yeah. And just go in there and just black.
50:03Absolutely no shade here, but I was, mine was blown.
50:06Steve Gleason was still alive. Yeah. Didn't realize that.
50:09I think we all, I think we all are just like, Ooh, he's hanging on.
50:14Yeah. Rushing it. Crushing it. Um, all right. So we're, we're all, it seems like we're in Penix territory here, so we'll go Penix here.
50:22We'll finish. Oh, all right. Well, we'll get to do one more.
50:25Stripling or Harrison. I think they're back to back and crowdsource.
50:29Strip. Strip. I'm going more. Bro, the voice just brought back Brandon Cook.
50:33Stripling would be crushing. It would be, it would have been super cool if, if they would have, they would have traded more to the, to the 49ers.
50:42That's never going to happen. You know, they took strip for me before I lost strip in the first quarter, second quarter.
50:48I lost strip. I lost Jackson dark. Yeah. Golly.
50:51Hey, can we go look back at that trade page that you saw that you had there when we took off into
50:58Marvin Harrison and look up Parker Washington? Sure. Let me see what, let me, yeah, he was on the list there.
51:05Let me see what the trades are like for Parker Washington these days.
51:09I don't know if I have any, hang on one second.
51:12Um, well, you know, and, and, you know, obviously, you know, we've, we've, we've, we've spent some time way back in the
51:19day on, you know, sort of like hot guy coach drafts and Stefanski sneaky, handsome.
51:24I will say sneaky, sneaky, handsome. There's, you know, there's some, some ugly coaches and some handsome coaches.
51:29It's Stefanski was never in there. All of a sudden I saw him on that sideline last one.
51:35I'm like, you know what you dog, you still looking good.
51:39Still looking good. When you get some dubs. Yeah.
51:41Oh, absolutely. Everyone looks better and, and black and red than they did orange and brown.
51:46True. But yeah, I don't know that it was those Browns uniforms a couple of Thursday nights ago were sick.
51:53Oh, the color, what color rush or whatever it was.
51:56Yeah. I mean, Dana, a whole lot. Yeah. Those things look so good.
52:00Like you can, it's, it's the, the colors contrast so much that you can just make some really cool combinations, but instead
52:07they're just like, nah, we'll just keep it basic.
52:09Yeah. Right. Who did you want to see Parker?
52:12Walker, Washington, he washed number six here. Let's pull up some trades.
52:16I got one here that I think is pretty interesting.
52:19What do you got? I've got Parker and a 20, 27 third or a 20, 27 first and second.
52:25One more time. Is this, is this on the screen or is this on in one of your leagues?
52:31No, this is on, this is if you click on Parker, Washington, it pulls up his trade.
52:36Oh, you've seen, this is one on the, on the website.
52:40Yeah. Gotcha. Gotcha. I don't, I don't see it yet, but yeah.
52:44Without contact, I'm on his, I'm on his name.
52:46And then I went to trades underneath the, right here's one right here.
52:50It is. Yeah. And you can vote on these trades on the FF dynasty.com.
52:55See, you know, and when you're making trades, you don't have to do completely random, right?
53:00You have an idea. If that guy has a better chance of winning the championship or a better chance of the one, one.
53:07Now, if you play for the one, one in your league and the losers bracket, that's completely different.
53:13Things can happen. But if the three of us are in a league, like I got an idea, I'm in multiple leagues,
53:19which you have, I'm in a ton of leagues with Casey.
53:23I know which teams, which leagues he's got a better chance to get in the one, one in.
53:29I know which teams he's got a better chance of getting the one 12.
53:33So like I would give you a, a, a one and a two to get Parker Washington.
53:38If I thought I had a good team, right?
53:41I don't want to give away the one, one next year for Parker Washington.
53:45I, I'm not interested, but if I'm giving away the one eight in the two eight, I can make that happen.
53:52Yeah. I don't mind. I don't mind that. I tried to trade a one and a three for him, um, last week and got shot down.
54:00I mean, I've, I've been the champion or the runner up in the last two or three years, you know, and, and I'm right at the top again.
54:09So obviously, you know, that you should probably shoot that down because like you said, generally, unless I have some really bad
54:16injury luck, I'm going to probably be in the hunt again for a, it's going to be a model four pick.
54:22Right. Yeah. Um, and you know, not, I have plenty of leagues where I'm not in that situation.
54:28This just happens to be one where, you know, it's it, we're on the run right now of, of dominance in that
54:35league and, and try to try and I could, I could use another receiver right now.
54:40Right. I got Derek Henry. I got Jonathan Taylor.
54:43I got Christian McCaffrey. I got this three headed wagon just coming at you every week.
54:48You know, some old guys that people didn't want anymore.
54:51And I'm like, well, I'll take them. Um, but you know, now I'm at the point where I'm like, Hey, I don't
54:58mind trading away my first right now to try to keep this, this train rolling and winning another championship.
55:04Right. So now, now you start exploring, like we talked about to start this off.
55:08Now you start exploring who's available. What can I get?
55:11Where, where's this first get me? What do I got to add to it to get something, you know, you know, really fun.
55:19And I'm not ready to dip into the old guy territory, just too early in the season for me to go buy another old player.
55:26Right. I don't want to buy Mike Evans right now.
55:30Um, but you know, anyway, so Parker Washington and a first and a second, like you said, big co I think contextually,
55:36if it's a late later set, then I'm on the Parker Washington side all day.
55:41Yeah. Hey, Booker, Travion and Travion Henderson for Parker Washington.
55:44That seems like, yeah, that's a smash. That's a, that's a tantalizing trade there.
55:49Yeah. That's real good. But also it's give me a Mecca, Booker and Travion Henderson.
55:53And this is, I love Parker Washington. I've been screaming.
55:56This is, this is very validating that this is happening the way it is, but good Lord, like that is a generational
56:03buy opportunity for a guy who can't, he's, I don't think he's that far off from a talent perspective of Parker Washington.
56:10It's just I, whatever the hell Zach Robinson's a terrorist.
56:13Well, you know, me and me and Stan had a Monday show and we did some risers who we were ranking and moved up a bunch.
56:21Obviously Parker Washington was one of those guys. And we had some followers and like Booker was one of those guys.
56:28And like, you know, for a lot of the followers, you could figure out that what, what the symptom was.
56:34And it was like, it's just broken there right now.
56:37The quarterback play isn't good. The system isn't work.
56:40Like, you know what I mean? Waddle was on that list.
56:44Like Booker was on that list. Lad McConkie was on that list.
56:47Well, all those guys have in common right now, the quarterback in the system is just not working.
56:53It's broken. Right. Um, so those are typically guys that you would want to buy low on because you believe in the talent.
57:00And it's like, we were also speaking of like in, in generalities, like dynasties.
57:05I mean, big co you play with a bit of a wheeler dealer mentality or, or at least in your younger days,
57:11um, which is, which is nothing wrong with it.
57:14That's a part of the fun. And I like make it, I like having trades out and getting discussions, but you know,
57:21a lot of them don't get done at the end of the day.
57:25Right. Sure. Um, it's, it's worked to get in a good league.
57:29It's worked to get a trade done. Right. There's a lot of back and forth, a lot of banter.
57:35Right. Um, but generally like dynasty is almost kind of boring when you get down to it.
57:40We, we, we get on here and talk on the mics about this and that, but like the boring stuff is what works.
57:47That's that. Like when somebody shows you you're good and then their value goes down, you buy them.
57:53That's basically the long and the short of this.
57:56Like if people are down on a chance value, buy him, we've seen it.
58:00He's good. Buy him. Like we've seen Chris Olave be good before there were some injuries.
58:05So there's a little added flair to that buy him.
58:08Right. We've seen like, and Stan doesn't really love it.
58:11Buka hasn't shown him enough yet, but like we've seen a stretch.
58:15It's like, well, you can at least for players like that, make you can, I can seek out what the symptom is there to the cause.
58:23Right. You could say, Hey, he got hurt last year.
58:26Then their line was bused up. Baker was there.
58:29They were, he was bused up at the end.
58:32And now they've come back this year and it doesn't seem like their offense is clicking in general.
58:38And now they have a backup quarterback in there.
58:41Right. Who's an undrafted free agent. Uh, no shade to Jalen Daniels.
58:44I thought he played a great game on Thursday.
58:47Right. Um, and Baker hadn't been playing good lad.
58:50Like what the fuck is wrong with Herbert? Sorry.
58:53If, if one of the young Curry's is watching, uh, but it's fine.
58:57Um, you know, what's, what are we, you know, that you should probably buy a lad McCong.
59:02Like generally like dynasty is kind of boring. Like when somebody shows you good that they're good, don't ignore it.
59:08Like just wait for the public opinion to go down and go buy that player.
59:13And, and generally that's gonna work out. It's boring, but it's a way not to really F it up too bad.
59:20And, and eventually turn it into really good value.
59:22Shiv. Kenneth Walker. Exactly. Right. Yeah. We did this for, we did this for years with, with Kenneth Walker.
59:28We did it like, it just doesn't, I don't understand.
59:31I, I, it, it always blows my mind how people can't wrap their head around like supply and demand.
59:37And, but instead the conversation turns into, well, this guy's not good because it didn't happen is well.
59:43Okay. Yeah. I'm not even going to argue with you that.
59:46Yes. He underperformed 1000%. Will you sell him to me for pennies on the dollar?
59:51Right. Let's just get, let's just get to the brass tacks of it.
59:55Like I'm not, there's no need to waste any more time talking about, well, I think that he, so yes, I'll give
60:02you whatever player is being tweeted about. And there's some cherry pick metric that everybody is falling in love with when football is not happening.
60:10And you just, you just go acquire all those guys.
60:13And all of a sudden you have a team that nobody can beat.
60:17And they're like, we should reset the league. It's like, well, that's just a bad league.
60:22But yeah, no, I mean, generally, you know, I, I, that's kind of, you know, it's not sexy and fun to talk about.
60:29And look, part of the thing is like, go get your guys, go get the guys you're excited about values, trying to
60:36figure all that stuff out, the wheeling and dealing, like you said, but I mean, point in case, like pretty much any
60:43of the three guys on the bears right now are buys to me, like it's not, it's not happening, but it's not
60:50because we don't like Roma Dunze had a great run last year.
60:54Like I'm confident he's a good player. Maybe he's not like as elite as I thought he was, but like, he's not going to be a bus.
61:02He's going to be fine. Right. And the price right now probably reflects that Luther burden is not Luther burns a good player.
61:09Like we've seen some electricity out of him. Not saying he doesn't need to be, maybe he was ranked a little too high.
61:17Maybe he wasn't ranked high enough. And maybe the back at Colson Loveland, same thing.
61:21Like, yeah, it's not working out right now. And it looks, it doesn't look that much fun, but I promise you, there's
61:28going to be a stretch where you're like, Holy shit there.
61:32And then, you know, does that ever go back in the bottle?
61:35I don't know. Right. So. I, I fear the reason I haven't victory lap, the Colson Loveland thing publicly is because there's
61:42going to be a month or maybe two months or however they close out the season where they absolutely crush from a fantasy perspective.
61:50No, it's not. And they're going to, they're going to take turns there.
61:54It's not going to be, this is still a young quarterback learning a year or two of a system.
62:00Like this is not like the, this is not a completed finished product.
62:04You see what Detroit, you see what Detroit turned into under Ben Johnson.
62:08I think this team has a chance to go to match that or consistently go higher than that.
62:13So, because I mean, you believe in the singularity of talent and Kayla Williams, it's just the ability to make the drop jaw dropping plays.
62:21Right. So you need to be buying those guys, whoever you believe in the most, obviously Colson Loveland's the most value, the most valuable.
62:29I start there because of the fact that in any tight and premium league, that dude is so hurt by what, what
62:36has happened that he might not be able to stay in the heat.
62:40And so you could, you could, you could, you could get a little sneaky, you can get a little sneaky, sneaky and
62:47pull off like a, you know, pull off an older guy.
62:50I'm looking at a roster where I got a bunch of tight ends, but I'm just going to go try.
62:56I'm going to go try to give Juwan and a first of some sort, like a 20, 28 first to go get
63:03Colston Loveland called Juwan Johnson scoring a bunch of points.
63:06Now it probably would have worked better if you do it after his monster game, but you get what I'm saying.
63:13Like another one. Don't worry. There's yeah, there's, there's going to be a boom week.
63:17There's going to be a guy who you can put in this person's face when said good player is not performing.
63:24And then you can win. If you can just have the discipline, the emotional discipline and not be, uh, it's Colston Loveland good.
63:31He only had two catches for 40 yards today.
63:34And it's like, yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with him being good.
63:38Yeah. Like just relax. Sam Laporta would be a good example of this.
63:42Obviously you had to support the back injury that happened, but he had, you know, had some injuries, had some down thing,
63:49but now we're back and like, he's looking out, he's amazing.
63:53Like he showed you, he was good. Don't, don't turn your blind eye to that being good and be, uh, and some
64:00every once in a while, that is an outlier.
64:03Uh, but generally if they show you that they're good and have a run like that, they're probably good.
64:08Right. Maybe. And like BTJ is somebody right now he's shown us he's good.
64:13What, what, what the, what can bump me off of that is he, it seems, this seems like a mental emotional problem that he's not bought in.
64:21Cause meanwhile, you have somebody like Josh Cameron, who's coming in there, who should be picked up anywhere that he's available for your dynasty team right now.
64:30I believe that's his name. Um, and he, he, he's out there bringing energy to what goes, he's returning kicks.
64:36He's blocking his ass off. He's getting, but like, he's going to earn his way into that spot where BTJ almost feels like I'm entitled to this spot.
64:45Right. And, and look, he'll probably figure it out.
64:48I think that one, those ones make me a little more concerned because it's not clearly not the talent, right.
64:54For BTJ is there, uh, there, but there, there seems to be an unevenness in, in mental where he's dropping balls, been
65:01a little banged up, you know, now, now he's now Parker's the guy.
65:05Uh, so anyway, because you got any thoughts? I want to, I do want to answer some questions here before we sign off.
65:12So. Well, I think, I mean, the last 10 minutes of this, I just been listening.
65:17I mean, it's really like, that's, that's how you play dynasty, right?
65:21Like I start with the bears, but like you said, Justin Herbert, massive, super flex dynasty by and if in a one
65:28quarterback league, I don't know how cheap he could be right now.
65:31Yeah. Unless he Andrew Lux this, there's no reason to not buy it.
65:35Herbert's way better than what we're seeing right now.
65:38Right. Exactly. Massive dynasty by, and you take advantage of somebody who like, you know, the expectation management, right?
65:44Like you, well, what did we think was going to happen?
65:48What's really happening? You know, chefs Colston Loveland part, you know, hamstrings are, hamstrings are funky in season.
65:53So maybe, you know, Caleb comes back too early and maybe he had tweaked something and he's never really right this season.
66:00So that office doesn't hit peak. I, that chefs comment about what happened to the lions, you know, and what has, what
66:07is currently happening to the lions, even on a, they're still leading the league in points because their defense is horrible, but
66:14it's not, it doesn't look the same and it's not always as effective from drive to drive as it was when, you know, Ben Johnson.
66:22And so the top end of that bears offense is we haven't even seen it yet.
66:27Like in dynasty, Colston Loveland is a ridiculous by low.
66:30Um, you know, just you may, it may be next week.
66:33It may be three weeks from now. Like Casey said, at some point it's going to be ridiculous and you're not the window's going to be slammed shut.
66:42Right. So Colston Loveland should be on your buy list.
66:45Maybe not, maybe not in redraft again, things might be tricky this year, but like every day that Colston Loveland isn't screaming
66:52up the value meter is just one more day.
66:55You get a chance to buy them cheaper than you should be.
66:58Uh, you know, like coincide Judkins right now, Travion Henderson, Judkins and Henderson.
67:03You don't get these opportunities to buy guys that are really good, really, really good.
67:07Uh, I mean that Thursday night, Judkins caught like seven or eight passes.
67:11And some of those balls were way outside of his frame.
67:15He's snagging balls and you were like, damn. Yeah.
67:18And then, and then when he had, and then that one run halfway through the game, I had right after it happened,
67:24I knew what quarter it was and what made it might've been third quarter, six minutes left.
67:30I mean, I remembered it for a week or two and then I got, I forgot it, but dude, that guy shot
67:37up the middle of the field, made a little half cut in the way on his way through the line.
67:43And you're like, that was so fast for a big man.
67:46And it's just Judkins is a massive dynasty by he's not fun right now.
67:51The Browns still trying to figure it out. When Watson was checking it down to him on that Thursday night, you're like,
67:58dude, that guy could do all kinds of the Browns had four or five targets this past week too.
68:04It just was like a mucky, miry, rainy game.
68:06Right. So like there's, there's bylaws when, and like you, the, the, the, the one problem, like, right now I have a
68:13team that I was trying to buy Henderson on Travion all off season.
68:17And now, you know, we're six weeks in and he's got an ankle and I'm, you know, top three in victory points
68:24and FFPC and I want to win the championship.
68:27So how much give and take just, I was talking about that with the defense and offensive line for the other, for
68:34the team a minute ago, when I was talking about it with the Texans, you can't have the best defensive line and
68:41have a really good offensive line too. As far as like the boys are paying two massive defensive ends.
68:47So my dynasty team, how much do I take away from my ability to win now to buy Travion Henderson?
68:53Who's hurt on the low, because once it gets going and once the Patriots, maybe two weeks ago when I was on
69:00here and I was like, it's malpractice to the Patriots aren't throwing this guy to ball and making him a bigger part of the team.
69:08I mean, obviously they see more than I do.
69:10Maybe they just, he's, he missed the first game, had an ankle, came back, had a good run, 35 yard touchdown run
69:17teams in the middle of some BS. He doesn't get anything going.
69:21Nobody on the team's doing anything. Now he's hurt again.
69:24He may not be right all year long, you know, but if you got a team that, you know, can either a
69:31afford to buy a guy that might not give you anything this year or B you're really not going to win.
69:38So go buy a young stud running back for as cheap as he might ever be again.
69:43You know, that's the way you got to play it.
69:46Well, you know, I mean, I don't, I think jury out on whether or not people think Hampton is good or not,
69:53but you know, like his volume and the way he's being used right now is not going to, there's no chances is
70:00going to be the OC next year. Like also probably a goodbye.
70:04He's better than what he's putting out right now.
70:06I could tell you that. Right. Yeah. So just kind of more of the same kind of thought process there.
70:13Um, all right, let's answer some questions here on the way out the door.
70:17Um, but before we do, let's jump into a little prize picks prize picks is America's number one sports pick app.
70:24The app's really easy to use for players. Um, let's throw this up here for their pleasure.
70:29Um, for players, just pick more or less than a few stats, lock in your lineup.
70:34That's it. Rather just pick teams prize picks has that too.
70:37Just pick a winner spread total on any game or fight prize picks is available, but not limited to most States, including Texas, California and Florida.
70:45Uh, best of all play your first $5 lineup and get $150 in lineups.
70:50If you win, just use promo code HMA. When you sign up, that's right.
70:54Prize picks just switched it up. Uh, so there's no better time to join and lock in and get that first lineup dub.
71:01It's promo code HMA get 150, $150 in bonus lineups.
71:05If you win your first $5 lineup. So I got a little lineup here for coming at you Sunday.
71:10They got lost, lost to first two losses of the NFL year.
71:14Bummer. Uh, but Brenton strange more than two and a half receptions.
71:18He's been red hot on the, on the T law hierarchy.
71:21So we're going to play that one. We got Malik neighbors more than three and a half.
71:27As long as JJ McCarthy doesn't trot his happy ass in there.
71:30Uh, J famous James is going to be way over three and a half for Malik neighbors coming off 21 or some crazy number.
71:38Uh, and then Javante Williams more than one and a half receptions, uh, for the Dallas Cowboys this week.
71:44That's been pretty solid. So, um, let's wrap this promo up HMA, do it, look at it, do whatever you got to do.
71:51Anyhow, let's get back to the show. All right.
71:54I got a couple of questions here. We'll start in the discord.
71:58Obviously you guys have asked some questions in the chat.
72:01We got a couple on the, on the, uh, on the website.
72:05So we'll sprinkle in a little bit of everything.
72:07So in the discord, our, our guy, Mitch, he asks his shout out to Mitch been, been a G for a while.
72:14Always, always rocking with us. Um, he asks rebuilding Parker Washington and Brees hall, and he would be giving up neighbors and Jalen Warren.
72:22So he's a rebuilder. He'd be giving up neighbors and Warren, uh, and he would be receiving Parker Washington and Brees hall.
72:29My initial thoughts were, I'm just probably keeping neighbors there.
72:32Right. And it's not that I wouldn't sell neighbors and that's a pretty good tier down.
72:37I don't know that I'll, if I'm giving up neighbors, I just want both, not that Jalen Warren is, is, you know,
72:44crazy valuable, but he's on a heater right now.
72:46Like I would tag Warren off the end of that.
72:50And like, I'd want the two for one and then go get something for Warren.
72:54If I, if that's the trade that I'm kind of shoehorned into making because nobody else will tear me down better for neighbors.
73:01I don't necessarily want to get off of neighbors, even if I'm rebuilding, unless I'm just so stuck that I can't.
73:08So around the horn here, what do we think about that one?
73:12He's Warren. He's, he's, he's trading neighbors and Jalen Warren for Parker Washington and Brees hall.
73:17Yeah. So Warren plus what gets me Parker Washington is where I'm gonna go with that.
73:22Okay. I see what you're doing. Yep. Can't trade neighbor.
73:25Sorry. Thanks for the offer. Uh, I'll give you Jalen Warren, a two and a three for Parker Washington.
73:31No, he's in a rebuild. He's in a rebuild.
73:34So he probably doesn't want to give away a lot of picks.
73:37Doesn't matter if I can get Parker Washington at this point.
73:41That's how you rebuild, get good players. Yeah. You could be striking out with those picks, you know?
73:46I mean, if it's the one, one, I don't want to give that for Parker Washington.
73:51That's what, Hey, I got a bad team, but the two, one, right.
73:56You know, Hey, I got a bad team. I can't give away my first blow.
74:00I'm into Jeremiah Smith sweet stakes, but I can give you a two, the two, one or the two, two and Jalen Warren for Parker Washington right now.
74:09And that's pretty damn good deal. What do you say there?
74:12And no. All right. Well, I'll give you the two and the three and Jalen Warren, because I'm crazy and I'm trying
74:19to get a receiver because my team sucks. Well, blah, blah, blah.
74:23And see how I'm trying to make, I'm yeah, I won't Parker Washington for sure, but I'm not trading neighbors.
74:29Yeah. There's just, um, I'm diamond hands. If I have, if I have Malik neighbors right now, I am diamond hands because
74:36that is, that is an elite dynasty cornerstone asset.
74:39Probably going to be back in the top five dynasty value wise.
74:43Well, if this keeps up for sure, like, well, that's what I'm saying.
74:47We got off to a, we got off to a slower start.
74:51There was some quarterback instability, but this, then we had to be older injury that yeah, just shoulders popping in and out of socket just randomly.
74:59And Deion Sanders toe. Yeah. He's got hammer toe.
75:01I don't really. Yeah. I don't, there's no reason it's, it's like the whole crystal lobby thing.
75:07Oh, you don't, you don't believe in Malik neighbors anymore.
75:10Why would you, why would you say that? Why would you do that?
75:14Well, there was plenty of people all off season long that said that as a fancier is he's going to have a field day.
75:21Um, yeah, but I got my receipts on here.
75:24I got my, I got my 25 minutes. It was supposed to be five minutes segment and I went on 25 minutes about why neighbors was the buy.
75:33And yeah, absolutely. I hope he doesn't play. I was like, Oh, we don't play the first half of the season.
75:40Let's get that knee. Right. So, you know, short term, you're probably playing with a little bit of fire cause he was
75:46sore and you never, you know, you never know.
75:49He may be, you may hurt a hamstring trying to overcompensate for that knee.
75:54I don't know what's going to happen, but I'm not moving neighbors and I'm buying him any chance I can get.
76:00Yeah. This is like, it's physically dominant. He's a top three alpha wide receiver in the league.
76:06Unless you think he's going to get injured again, which is a crazy game to play.
76:11You don't know that you don't know. You don't know that.
76:14And, and so neighbors, I need a godfather deal to get rid of neighbors.
76:18That's a good deal. I'm not upset. I got to get rid of Warren.
76:23It's not a terrible deal. It's what like, it's okay.
76:26But like, I need a big boy, crazy deal with studs and picks and all this stuff to even think about getting rid of it.
76:34Cause it's just like, there's just no reason to sell them right now.
76:38Cause it's just going to go up. We're getting to the off season.
76:42There's going to be plenty of positive traction on neighbors unless there's an injury, which I, you know, to be in that prediction is crazy.
76:50So there's just no reason to get off right now.
76:53And I mean, I think Warren is going to stay here for the rest of the year.
76:58I think obviously we got muddies us up. Nope.
77:01A little bit, maybe more muddy, big Mike, big Mike likes Rico, but Aaron Rogers wants to win.
77:07Aaron Rogers wants to win. And Jalen Warren brings us off at something that it really doesn't have outside of the occasional good looking rep from DK Metcalf.
77:15And that's being explosive and Aaron Rogers on his victory.
77:18He's on his way out tour and Jalen Warren can do everything.
77:22He can run and he can catch and he's fast.
77:25And he, if Aaron, if Aaron Rogers says, doubtful gets goal line and that's it, then doubtful is getting goal line and that's it.
77:33And I, I think doubtful's, I think that was a good burning back too, but I have no problem.
77:39I'm not like, well, you're not going to be at 95% snap share anymore with Warren, but, but, and I don't have
77:46to sell Jalen Warren before next week. That's what I'm saying.
77:49Like I hit me to me, he's got value.
77:52He's got value that there's no reason he's tacked onto the end of that trade.
77:57I can tell you that like, he's somebody you gotta be selling individually out of the, you can't be packaging him up
78:03in that kind of shit right now, you know?
78:06Agreed. Yeah. You know, do you think, do you think that you get a contender, a contender first for him at the
78:13end of like at the trade deadline? If he keeps, if he, obviously he's not going to, he's not going to continue
78:2095% snap share, like you said, but I mean, look at the, look at the landscape of running backs right now.
78:27If he keeps doing anywhere near what he's doing right now, if you're not, if you're not giving up a contender first, you're probably doing it wrong.
78:35Right. You know, I mean, the goal is to win money.
78:38That's I mean, or to win the league or however, whatever you're set up.
78:43Like, I mean, you can be like, Oh, next year I'll be good.
78:47This is the kind of run that where Jalen Warren says, see, I told you, you know, and then next year he
78:54might be somebody's one a, even if it's not on Pittsburgh, maybe it is on Pittsburgh without, but that like Aaron Rogers
79:01is kind of got like, he'll, he's going to give him a nudge enough past volume to keep him going as well.
79:07And then with this last two weeks of crushing, I just feel like, you know, that, the AFC is so, I mean,
79:14it's just so wide open, you know, it's like, all right, let's mean that in Pittsburgh.
79:19So Steelers are legit. They're a threat. It looks good.
79:22Yeah. Rogers looks good. All right. Dan's got a question.
79:26He said, uh, he thought he had a strong team, strong championship contender team before the season, but my QBs have been
79:32killing me specifically Justin Herbert at this point. What's his dynasty value?
79:36What could I reasonably ask for an exchange? Can't imagine the golf or Prescott manager would even settle for a straight up swap at this point.
79:44That's exactly what we talked about earlier. It's his dynasty value.
79:48You need to get something done this year. You need, if you're the Justin Herbert guy, you got to look up down
79:55that roster and be like, is he really the only problem I got?
79:59Do you really have a good running back? Do you have B.
80:03John? Do you have a, do you have Kenny Walker?
80:06Do you have Gibbs? No. Okay. Well then now you're two tiers down from everybody from the top dogs.
80:12How does your team, do you have JSN? Do you have St.
80:15Brown? If the best you got is Nico's hamstring, right?
80:18Like I like, do you have a good tight end?
80:22Do you have a third wide receiver? Do you have a second running back?
80:26Is Justin Herbert your only problem? Because if not, this is really, really bad time to make a move.
80:32It's a great time to be buying. If he's on your team, you don't get to get that window.
80:38You got to go get somebody else. Go buy Travion and be like, all right, well, I thought I had a good team.
80:45Justin Herbert, maybe get a bad draft pick. If you got a good team, Justin Herbert, isn't going to make you not miss the playoffs.
80:53If you have a really, really good team, Justin Herbert may be fine.
80:57Come week 15. You know, there's a lot. Mike McDaniel get kicked out the team out the door next week.
81:03And then a couple of weeks later to hit a bye week.
81:07And now they got a different offensive coordinator and they run into some little bit more power.
81:12And all of a sudden, Justin Herbert's running around a little bit more and he's back to average at 18 points a game.
81:19And you could sweep the playoffs. Don't do anything crazy.
81:23Shev comments, questions, concerns before moving to the next question.
81:26Okay. So it's Harvard's been, Harvard's been killing him.
81:28I, yeah, that's, that would, that was, that was going to be very close to my answer as well, because of the
81:35fact that you very easily could be back in a, you could be in a place where let's say, uh, the Jags offensive coordinator, who's a wonder kid.
81:44He gets the, he gets the LA job. Grant Udinski.
81:47Yes. Let's say he gets that job and he's paired with, he's paired with, with, with Jackson or not, excuse me, Justin Herbert.
81:54And now we get West coast, Trevor Lawrence and East coast, Trevor Lawrence.
81:58And all of a sudden he's good. He's scoring a lot of points and you sold him for pennies on dollar, or
82:05you went and you gave up, you just traded him straight up for Sam Darnold.
82:10And now you hate everything about, you hate everything about what you did.
82:14So unless you can get plus back, like maybe the, maybe the Jared golf owner, if his team's not doing anything, he
82:21could take on Justin Herbert for tank points. If, but it's, it's unlikely.
82:25I, depending on the raw, I mean, I don't know your league, so, but it's unlikely that if you got guys scoring
82:32a whole bunch of points at quarterback and Justin Herbert's not scoring a bunch of points and that's holding you back a
82:39bit, that you're going to be able to get one of those guys from another dynasty manager in the immediate to help you anyway.
82:46Yeah. So I mean, golf's not a bad swap out if you can do it.
82:51I mean, but it's, you're losing value long-term. I think you're losing so much value.
82:56That's what I'm saying. Yeah. You're, he's going to get out before, before Herbert, Herbert's value dies even a little bit.
83:02And he's been lights out this year, but he's 32 years old.
83:06Herbert's 28. Like unless, like Casey said, unless he, Andrew Lux's thing, his value is going to skyrocket after this year or whenever he turns it around.
83:14Yeah. You could get, you could get Jameis Winston for a cup of coffee and plug him in for a few weeks.
83:21You could get Jacoby percent for three cups of coffee and, and plug him in for probably the rest of the year.
83:28Um, you say, you said that was backwards. James has got the rest of the year.
83:33Jacoby's only got a couple more weeks. They brought in nine.
83:37Yeah. Yeah. At some point, the Harbaugh blood pack is going to, it's going to, it's going to want nine in there.
83:44We just talked about, we just talked about them being three, one in one and leading that division.
83:49That's right. That's right. They keep winning football games.
83:52JJ McCarthy is not going to see the light of fucking day on a football field in 2026.
83:58Oh, for sure. If they're winning, no doubt. I don't.
84:01Yeah, for sure. That's a good point. I think Brissette's got more than a couple of weeks left.
84:06I think Brissette's, I think Brissette's all right for a while.
84:10I really do. Um, they are getting, they are getting just pulp fiction in the basement.
84:15Well, I don't think, I don't think you want to stick worst case scenario back.
84:19Probably. I don't know. I, I, you got at least, I don't know, five, six games with Brissette left five or six.
84:26Oh yeah. I can't imagine that one out there right, right away.
84:30Like it's, well, I mean, they're coming back from an injury.
84:34There's three games away from being one in seven and just basically mathematically eliminated from the three, three games away from Carson Beck getting killed too.
84:42And then being like, I don't want to play this game anymore.
84:45Well, yeah. Just so they can go get whoever they're going to get in 2027.
84:50But it gives you a better, it gives you a better, if you're, if you're losing already, don't just in case Beck's
84:57decent, you don't want to Tyler shuck your way out of number one pick on the draft.
85:02Yeah. You might as well just keep on losing with Brissette.
85:06Gotta see what you got. And Brissette can throw it 50 times and keep my fantasy teams going and the Cardinals can lose.
85:13Win, win, baby. We have all been in SEC country for a very long time.
85:18And you've watched Carson Beck play football. He's going to get them that one-on-one.
85:22All right. Pickens for a mid first. Give me pickens.
85:25How mid? I'll make a decision. I'll call it six.
85:28I'll call it, I'll call it, if we're, if we're looking at early, middle and late, I'll call it mid, I'll call it middle left.
85:36Hmm. I'll call it one Oh six and park.
85:39Yeah. I mean, you gotta, I've, you gotta take pickens and then you gotta make a move.
85:44You could flip that. You could flip pickens plus something that's going to get you a package that this first round pick
85:51might not 27 first are ridiculously valuable and they get deals done for sure, but you could pickens your way into neighbors.
85:58Hmm. You gotta pickens your way into neighbors. Yeah.
86:01Um, all right. Chase Brown and Rashi rice for a Chan and Tyson.
86:05Did I win? Yes. Chase Brown and Rashi rice for a Chan and Tyson.
86:09I mean, just for a Chan, you probably want just for the, I mean, from the, especially from these three guys right
86:16here, there's plenty of people who, for whatever reason, a chance being sold in some circles for way too cheap.
86:22I think he's a status top six running back in dynasty.
86:26He's discount. He's discount Gibbs. And he gives you about 90% of the production and he's saving 70% of the value.
86:32Maybe, maybe less now. Long-term dynasty scat or Judkins.
86:35Judkins. Jinx. I mean, I, like I love, I love CT scat pack, but yeah, it's Judkins.
86:40Should I trade Swift for Tet? Yes. Yes. I don't care what the, whatever it is.
86:45Yeah. And if he says no throwing a two and a three, if you got to give him a first swift and
86:52a first, if you need to just traded 27 first and 28 first for egg Buka and London.
86:58Trying to read. I like it. Well done, sir.
87:01Yeah. Way to play. Way to run the game.
87:04Way to run the game. Well done. Good. Unstar that.
87:07All right. What do we got? We got JP Tay.
87:10JPT. Um, four and one team is hurts. Knicks.
87:13Judkins. Tootin. Monungi. Corum. Puka. Neighbors. Burden. Coker. Wandel.
87:15BTJ. Gadsden. T. Ferg. Barner. Um, top five in scoring, but my QBs, RBs, tight ends, and burden are shitting on me.
87:22Hmm. Hope you got a hazmat suit. This is, this is a lot of words.
87:27That's a lot of words. Um, I mean, Judkins.
87:30Tootin. Monungi. I call them. I mean, you're a Judkins.
87:33Tootin's leading your, depending on which week you got Monungi in.
87:36That's been fun. You got Puka back. You got Puka's neighbors.
87:40Coker gets healthy. What do you wait? Just hanging on.
87:43I assume is this, is this redrafter dynasty? What are we doing here?
87:47Um, it's gotta be dynasty. Cause he's got two quarterbacks.
87:50Yeah, I guess. I mean, I, you know, this is a trade for a trade for a running back.
87:56Your tight ends. Yeah. I mean, yeah. Gadsden T for Barner.
88:00They're, they're killing you. If it's premium, you know, you could probably find a running back.
88:05Fergal probably end up being just fine. Right. I mean, I would, you got that.
88:09I mean, with, with neighbors and Puka and if burden one of burden and Coker, which Coker's already playable, like you got a ridiculous three there.
88:17Tootin's good. You know, Judkins is good. I mean, good enough.
88:21I mean, is he hurt? Is he all right?
88:24Right. Like you gotta, you got, you got massive like cornerstones to hang out.
88:28You're you're, you got Puka neighbors, Judkins burden. Like you got guys to, to hang on to if you, and you're four
88:35and one to just, you're, you're a Kyron injury away from being under and a tight end away from being unbeatable.
88:41So like, just hang on and get closer to the end of the season and see who's healthy.
88:47You are the other team. Maybe, but maybe, maybe find the right boom week to trade one of your tight ends.
88:54Because even if you don't get it in the process, like if you're one of your tight ends blow up and you
89:00can sell it for a draft pick. That's not exactly the tight end that you need to be playing right now.
89:07You add that to your, you know, wallet, and then you buy another tight end the boat, the boom for your guy
89:14that you're selling and the low week that you, the guy you're trying to buy might not be in the same week.
89:21You got, might have to spread it out for a minute.
89:24You might have to have a, you might have a long con on the tight end purchase and you know, and then sell one on the short end.
89:33All right. A couple more, two, three more questions.
89:36All right. Herbert plus strange for a Loveland deal.
89:39I'm sending Loveland have an expiring offer. I mean, I just quarterbacks are hard.
89:43You're not going to get too many deals in front of me where I don't want to be getting the Loveland side.
89:50You can't get, there's not a need some context on how many quarterbacks you got.
89:55It's hard to give away a quarterback right now.
89:57It seems like the fun thing to do to trade Justin Herbert, but we just spent the last hour saying, don't do that.
90:05I mean, he's trading for Herbert in this deal.
90:07Oh, he's trading. I'm not. He's getting, he's getting Herbert and strange for Loveland.
90:12Basically. It's not a horrible idea, but I'm not trading away Loveland.
90:16I was going to try to figure out how to get the Loveland deal done for him, but so he's trying to
90:22go, he's trying to go from Loveland to strange and then get a quarterback.
90:27It's not a bad process, especially when, when Herbert comes back to life.
90:31I mean, it's, you probably can, I go to Florida and get Herbert.
90:35You got us. You got a startable. You got a non, you got a non zero tight end and strange.
90:41He's paid quarterbacks throwing him the ball, right? It's not a horrible idea to that's literally buying low on the quarterback.
90:48But that's what we just talked about, you know, but like that's, I would try to be like, I got to get a little bit.
90:56I mean, if it's one, if it's not premium, then you got to get the, you got to get Herbert in that.
91:02You got to get the quarterback. Yeah. That's without, if it's, if it's got some premium to it, I'm going to still
91:09have a real hard time trading away Loveland, no matter what.
91:13Yeah. All right. I got a couple of questions in the, in the, in the old.
91:18Let's see here. Let's bring this up. Yeah. I need to buy some Parker Washington.
91:22Yeah. Yeah. Welcome home. Welcome home. I did draft him super early in a redraft $500 league.
91:28So I put my money where my mouth was where it.
91:31So, and I got him all over the place in, in a best ball, but all my other guys, everybody on the
91:38team, on all the teams has hurt. It's crazy.
91:41I got, I got, I got a, I got a, I got a Christian Watson, Parker Washington, somebody else that had a,
91:48I got a three wide receiver combo with Isaiah likely that's out there trying to do work with a chance on the IR.
91:55It said, you just, you know, you can't get that right combination of health.
91:59It's the worst. Yeah. Yeah. I'm, I know my team's good.
92:03I just can't prove it. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. I promise.
92:06I know what I'm doing, but I can't show you.
92:09What do I do with Kenny Walker on a bad team?
92:12Should I sell high on Kenny Walker with this team or keep them for the future?
92:17I'm one in four. So this is coming from Johnny onk.
92:21Let's see the team here. All right. So he's got, he's one in four.
92:25He's got Trevor and Kyler Penix. He's got Kenny Walker, C-Rod.
92:29He's really no other running backs to speak of that are starter bull.
92:33Tett, Garrett Wilson, Luther Burden, Josh Downs, Jeremy Bernard, Chris Bell.
92:36Pretty Ricky, Jacoby Lane, Roman Wilson down here coming to life.
92:40You're getting late. Look, this is, this is, this is the textbook.
92:43One in four team ain't as bad as it is one in four says.
92:48I can see your losses right here. You know, a Garrett Wilson, hot jets, cold, Luther Burden hadn't really done a whole lot for you.
92:56I guarantee you between Sadiq and Pitts, you haven't had the right tight end and the right week plugged in your lineup.
93:02I guarantee you that. And, um, you, your backup quarterback went out.
93:06I know you didn't have Penix started that week against the Packers because nobody did.
93:11So, you know, so like Kyler Murray got hurt.
93:14Michael Penix just came back to be able to play for you.
93:17So you've had Trevor Lawrence and Kenneth Walker and the ghost of Chris Rodriguez.
93:22I don't know. He's got two touchdowns in the last two weeks, but other than that, he ain't, I mean, man, ain't touching the ball.
93:30If Chris Rodriguez would have could just get a couple of points, I might actually make some underdog winning this year.
93:36Ted Wilson, Luther Burden, Josh Downs is somebody you might be able to trade away and get something for.
93:42I mean, stick of that guy, Jeremy Bernard, Chris Bell, Pierce, old IR.
93:46I like, yeah, I'm not trying to like any Walker on this team.
93:50He pits. I mean, Kenya, Sadiq and cop hits like, dude, you're saying all you got got all your picks in every round too.
93:58Right. Just don't trade your first next year. Ride it out.
94:01If you got, this is the perfect team. Now you're, you're, you're pot committed.
94:06You got no, you got no RB to you.
94:08You're miss mismatch between Colin Murray and Penix maybe.
94:11And I would, you could sell either one of those as they get hot through the season.
94:17Right. Well, yeah. You got, you got a, you got three, four good rookies down here.
94:22Cyrus Allen could potentially get some juice here later.
94:24Yeah. You got three stud wide receivers. Bell, Bernard, like all the, like those guys could be easily used to buy an RB to here real soon.
94:33You know what I mean? Or just keep them and have wide receivers or keep them.
94:38Yeah. But you, you, you're, you're, you're kind of strong there, especially if Luther comes on, like you could be, if you
94:45sell one of them and something else you could, you could add another running back to this team is what I'm saying.
94:52Yeah. You'll have all your picks. But what's the, what's the likelihood you're going to get a really good running back.
94:58I mean, even if it like, you know, if you, let's say you could have traded, let's say Jeremy Bernard popped for
95:05the last two weeks and then the Jalen Warren pop was going to be in two weeks and you were able to
95:12swing that and you're like, Oh, I'll give you this rookie.
95:15You'd have to be buying, you'd have to be buying a Jonah Coleman, right?
95:20You'd have to be buying a prospect that hasn't done anything that like you can't be buying.
95:25You can't buy, you don't want to buy Jalen Warren right now necessarily on this team.
95:30Although, you know, well, but that, but, well, yeah, but he's, but you gotta buy, you gotta buy somebody who's not crushing
95:37right now and is maybe a little younger. Maybe he doesn't, you know, maybe, maybe how does it take me get Travion?
95:44Like you said, you know, on this team. Sure.
95:47Great call. Well, exactly. Well, my point is don't blow this opportunity to actually have a really good nucleus and get a good 27 first round pick.
95:55Like you're four, you're one in four bad shit happened to you.
95:59You got unlucky. Don't go buy an RB two now, right?
96:02This thing out, sell somebody else. So you can go get one, two, the one, three, the one, what, you know how bad is out?
96:10How bad can you get by key and keep all those core players?
96:14Yeah. You know? Yeah. I guys, I appreciate all the questions in the comments and on, you know, we're not going to
96:21get it to them all ever and anything. I love that all you guys are putting them in the website.
96:27This is a much easier way for us to view the context on here.
96:32So I appreciate them all. We'll try to get some, to some of these questions that have been in here next week as well.
96:39I'm not trying to not get to y'all. We'll do one more and we'll, we'll sign off of here.
96:45Um, chef, did you have anything else to input on the Kenny Walker one?
96:49No, you got unlucky now embrace. What has happened to you and just go ahead and get right for 2027.
96:56I don't have any issues with, I mean, unless you're going to get, unless you're going to do something to where you
97:03magically can get like a true difference maker. Like a, maybe if somebody is a little frustrated with Jamar Chase and you
97:09can send Kenneth Walker, you know, Kenneth Walker for Jamar Chase or Kenneth Walker plus one of the youngins for Jamar Chase
97:16at this point in time, there's no point in getting rid of him right now.
97:21Cause he's got multi-year viability and you're not as far off as you think you are.
97:26Yeah. So yeah. If you get lucky, you get lucky and all of a sudden you start winning and you end up
97:33back in your way into the playoffs, you know, you make some damage.
97:37You you're one week from the play trade deadline or whatever, however your league works.
97:42Now you might make a little something here or there, um, to do a tweak.
97:46Maybe tootin goes down and Chris Rodriguez is, you know, scoring 15 points a week.
97:51I don't, anything can happen, but yeah, sure. Ride, ride that first round pick.
97:55Go try to get Travion for sure. You know, try to give up a Josh Downs and Jeremy Bernard and a two
98:02and a three and see if you can get Travion.
98:05You know, I don't even need to do that right now.
98:09Hey guys, I'm scoring pretty low, but I'm still three and two.
98:13I have guys coming off injury. I've already sold my first round pick.
98:17Do you think I'm currently a contender and should push my chips in or should I make a move trade away somebody
98:23like Travion Henderson for a little less than I'd like to get someone who will produce this year?
98:29Uh, let's see here. I'm gonna say no before I even see the team, but sometimes I do spite build around the
98:36fact if I don't have my first round pick, I'm gonna try to make it as bad of a pick as possible if I give it away.
98:44Absolutely. Love it. He's got two twos. He's got two twos.
98:48Um, all right. So he's got Drake Mays. Daniels.
98:51Let's see how many, let's, let's see the parameters real quick before you go any further.
98:56Do you love me? Uh, wide receiver. You got to start three wide receivers and super flex and one flex.
99:02So low flex, we got to start three wide receivers.
99:05Okay. So he's got Kenny Walker. He's got Bucky Irving.
99:08He's got Travion Anderson and he's got my dog, Caleb Johnson.
99:12Uh, we got Drake May, Jaden Daniels, Anthony Richardson, Jalen Daniels.
99:15Um, he's got the most confusing Daniels. You're going to miss start one of those guys one week.
99:21Um, uh, then you got Rome, AJ Brown, Coker, worthy dubs, Trey Harris, Ricky Pierce, L Horton and Brown.
99:27And then Loveland got her Waller. Um, so it's a solid team.
99:30He said he was three and two. Doesn't have his first round pick.
99:34I mean, you know, so if Travion was doing, I don't know what big coach.
99:39Shev, I'm going to go to you first here.
99:42I'm not selling, I'm not selling, I'm not selling Travion right now.
99:46Okay. Okay. So he said someone like Travion. So if you had some other options on there, like there's not, there's no,
99:53nothing, nothing jumping off the page here, screaming that I want to sell it outside of maybe, maybe AJ Brown.
99:59If, you know, if he doesn't come back and start helping you win some games.
100:04Yeah. I mean, that's the biggest thing is just, you need to, you need to get some high end viability out of
100:10your, out of your high end assets, which AJ Brown just not being out there probably lowers your points for, I mean,
100:17it lowers your points for quite a bit, but run with Dunes, they also being kind of a zero, you weathering that
100:24to three and two tells me you can finish strong on the, on the back end of the season calls.
100:30And I, you know, but I, I don't, I wouldn't, I would, I would, I would, I would either continue to spite
100:37build and just see, just see how the chips shake out.
100:41If everybody gets healthy at the right time, Caleb comes back, you don't have depth.
100:45So do what you can to try to make that pick as late as possible.
100:50Maybe you back into the playoffs. If everything goes wrong, then I would try to sell Bucky before I try, I try
100:57to sell Bucky because you're selling for pennies on a dollar on Travion.
101:01Bucky's value will have rebounded enough to where you could get a jump on, try to get a first back to try
101:08to get, you know, to try to start the re like, try to get off to a better start next year.
101:14Yeah. I'm looking at the records and the points fours here.
101:18So just expand all. So if you look on the, on the left here, we can see where their power ranks are.
101:25The record points, four points against nobody's does. Oh, this guy's four in one.
101:29Got a rebuild or moniker. Might need to look at that.
101:33Um, let's get some older guys here. Yeah. Big co any, any other thoughts before we wrap this one up here on,
101:39uh, kind of what's like, I mean, three and two, you got AJ Brown and Coker is your two and three in
101:46a start wide receiver, start three wide receiver league.
101:49Right. So like you, you've been, yeah, obviously you plug in Romeo dubs one week, the next week when AJ Brown goes
101:56down, I think dubs, that's the week he was dropping all those balls.
102:00You know, Ricky Pierce all came in IR before you got started at Dallas.
102:04Goddard goes IR Colson level. That hadn't done anything for you.
102:08Yeah. You got, um, go back to the quarterbacks, go back to his team.
102:12It's got, okay. He's got great. Okay. So he's been missing Jaden Daniels for a minute.
102:17So like, I don't, I don't know. The fact that you are three and two and you've thwarted.
102:23So any Kenny Walker, you drug you to three and two by himself.
102:27Um, yeah. I mean, if, if there's something out there that can, that you can get for the two twos that you
102:34have, that's gonna, you're going to appreciate having next year.
102:37Right. I'm not giving a two way for anybody old.
102:40I'm not giving, I would, you know, I'm not trying to buy, you know, Terry McLaurin on this team.
102:46You're not going to buy, you know, not trying to buy Mike Evans on this team.
102:51And I'm certainly not trying to sell Travion Henderson for a little less than he should be worth.
102:57Cause I, I think right now you're selling him.
103:00Even if you sell them for a little bit, then what he should be worth.
103:04I think that's way less than what he should be worth.
103:08I'm much higher on Travion than the, than the normal value.
103:11So supposedly about what he's, what he's worth right now.
103:14Now that man is, that man is a mar for a two that Travion Henderson is volume away from being outrageous.
103:21Yes. Unfortunately, Ramond Ray stands in his way. We got to get that.
103:25We got to get that fixed. He's just, he's just, he's, he's too good all around.
103:30He just does enough. I mean, like Travion can do it all.
103:34I mean, I mean, the fact that Travion can't get sprinkled in a little more is kind of crazy, but well, I
103:40mean, as soon as AJ Brown went down and everything got shuffled and Romeo Doves out there dropping balls, like Travion not
103:47coming out in the slot next week just blew my mind.
103:51Right. Like what did we do? Just what do we get him on the Williams though?
103:56Yeah. Let's go. Let's go. All that. This is going to end up around Kyle Williams, baby.
104:01This is going to end up just what if, what if Kamani Vidal and Kyle Williams both end up being good?
104:08I mean, I don't think there's any doubt that either one of them are good.
104:12Well, could I come out? Will Vidal ever get a chance to be the guy?
104:17I don't know. I'm saying like a viable, viable fantasy options is what I mean.
104:22Yeah. Yeah. Which by the way, I mean, in that, and just to recap that whole thing, like I was also telling
104:29you the whole year before Vidal was like, Hey, he's like my favorite late round running back to buy.
104:35So it was all in the whole thing. It wasn't even like I'm anti Vidal.
104:39I just, the fact that you can't draft a wide receiver in that situation is great.
104:44Oh, you can't do that. It's a bad process.
104:47It's so bad. It's just so bad. It's bad.
104:50Correct. Correct. All right. Let's wrap this one up.
