Episode Transcript
0:00Here's a couple things that I would say
0:01about Achane. I agree that this year's
0:03projection
0:04is definitely not favorable compared to
0:07the other running backs going in the
0:08range. But I just look at that
0:10efficiency and it's like, okay, maybe
0:11I'm not going to get a absolutely winner
0:15break fantasy winner with Devon Achane.
0:18But here would be your my pushback a
0:20little bit on this one, Theo. He's
0:22already expensive, but if you're going
0:23to fade Devon Achane, why isn't Amari
0:26and Hampton your RB2 or RB3? He had his
0:30Mike McDaniel. He has the potential
0:32elite offense. You know what else he
0:34has, Theo? He has a quarterback that
0:36once threw it 720
0:38times [music] in a season and fed a
0:40running back in Austin Ekeler 130
0:42targets. So all of the things you're
0:44bashing Achane for,
0:47like Hampton's getting it all, but yet
0:48Hampton Hampton is
0:50>> [music]
0:50>> a guy people will say, "Oh, I've never
0:52seen it." Like it feels like if you're
0:53going to fade Achane, you should be way
0:55over eight weight on Hampton.
0:57I haven't gone like full steam into like
0:59fade Achane, go all in on Hampton. But
1:02when you compare the two and what one
1:04loss versus one is getting, kind of
1:06feels like if you're skipping over
1:07Achane, just take Hampton [music] in
1:09that same spot.
