Player analysis
Player insights
Braelon Allen
PositiveRole33:33
Braelon Allen is a massive, physical running back who has earned the trust of the coaching staff and is carving out a significant role in the Jets' backfield. He has averaged 4.2 to 4.8 yards per carry over his last two games and is effectively creating a 60/40 committee split with Breece Hall, threatening Hall's fantasy ceiling.
Insight pageBreece Hall
NegativeBust34:01
The source recommends selling Breece Hall because his fantasy ceiling is capped by the emergence of Braelon Allen and the Jets' commitment to a two-back system. The backfield is trending toward a 60/40 committee split, which limits Hall's overall fantasy output and makes him a candidate to trade for a safer asset.
Insight pageBrock Purdy
PositiveValue22:02
The source identifies a buy-low window for Brock Purdy, projecting him as a top-three quarterback for the rest of the season. Despite recent modest scoring, Purdy has increased his rushing attempts (15 over the last two weeks) and faces favorable upcoming matchups against Washington and Atlanta, making him a strong DFS play with potential for 'smash week' performances.
Insight pageBucky Irving
NegativeValue41:53
Despite a breakout 165-yard, two-touchdown performance against Dallas, the source identifies Bucky Irving as a sell-high candidate. The source suggests using his current high market value to trade for more established elite assets like Kyren Williams, Chuba Hubbard, or James Cook, noting that his upcoming matchups may be more difficult and that the 'RB1 rest of the year' perception creates an ideal trade window.
Insight pageChase Brown
NegativeUsage37:44
The source advises selling low on Chase Brown following disappointing usage and production, noting that Samaje Perine has seen increased snaps and rushing volume. Brown is currently averaging 13 points per game, and the source suggests he is a sell if managers are still valuing him as a top-15 pick, as his workload is being cut into by Perine.
Insight pageChristian Watson
PositiveValue5:05
Christian Watson is viewed as an elite asset with a high scoring output (21+ PPG), making him a preferred target over Davante Adams in two-for-one trades. While the source notes the trade window is effectively closed with smart managers due to his recognized elite role, he remains a featured component of the Packers' passing offense.
Insight pageChuba Hubbard
PositiveProjection14:48
Chuba Hubbard is a strong buy candidate currently averaging 19.8 points per game with a near 50% rush success rate and over 5 yards per carry. He has shown remarkable consistency, scoring at least 14.4 points in every game this season. He should be valued as a low-end RB1, yet can likely be acquired for mid-RB2 prices.
Insight pageDavante Adams
NegativeValue43:23
Davante Adams is labeled a sell-high candidate following a massive scoring stretch. The source suggests capitalizing on this high production window due to target disparity concerns, noting that Puka Nacua has commanded 36 targets over the last two weeks compared to 16 for Adams. There is also concern about Adams' potential to fade late in the season.
Insight pageDeebo Samuel
NegativeInjury28:48
Deebo Samuel's current injury has left the 49ers' wide receiver room decimated, which the source notes will significantly alter the team's offensive structure.
Insight pageDontayvion Wicks
PositiveBreakout3:54
The source recommends buying high on Dontayvion Wicks (referred to as Matthew Golden), citing his elite 15.7 PPG, a team-leading 24% target share, and top-10 status in YAC. His 2.6 targets per route run are elite, comparable to Drake London, and his first-round pedigree suggests his production is sustainable in the Packers' pass-heavy offense. He is a key part of the passing attack, including 40-plus yard completions, and is preferred over Davante Adams in trade scenarios.
Insight pageDrake London
NegativeProjection6:42
The source uses Drake London as a statistical benchmark for elite efficiency, specifically comparing his targets per route run rate to that of Dontayvion Wicks.
Insight pageJalen Hurts
NegativeBust34:58
Jalen Hurts is a sell candidate due to the Eagles' declining offensive line quality (ranked 21st), reduced rushing efficiency, and poor underlying metrics. The source prefers Jordan Love over Hurts for the remainder of the season, noting that while people may still pay for the name, the metrics are stacked against him.
Insight pageJaylen Warren
NegativeValue8:40
The source advises against selling Jaylen Warren, despite market sentiment suggesting a sell-high window due to Rico Dowdle's return. Warren has recorded at least 20 points and 20 touches in his last three games and is playing 'unbelievable football.' The source believes he will benefit from target consolidation in Pittsburgh and recommends sending reasonable trade offers to acquire him.
Insight pageJaylen Wright
NegativeUsage21:22
Jaylen Wright is considered an afterthought in the Miami backfield, having played only 15% of snaps with six carries and one route run in the most recent game.
Insight pageJordan Love
PositiveProjection30:53
Jordan Love is a major buy-high candidate, projected to be a top-five quarterback over the next three to four weeks due to an elite deep ball and a highly favorable schedule against Detroit, Carolina, and New England. The source prefers Love over Jalen Hurts for the remainder of the season, even in four-point passing touchdown leagues.
Insight pageJuwan Johnson
NegativeValue77:32
Juwan Johnson is averaging 13.2 points per game, but the source warns that this production is inflated by a single strong performance in Week 3. Managers are advised to use him as a secondary piece in two-for-one trades to upgrade to an elite tight end, such as Sam LaPorta, while LaPorta is on a bye week.
Insight pageMatthew Golden
PositiveValue4:55
The source recommends buying Matthew Golden in both redraft and dynasty formats, noting that his current 15.7 points per game could increase due to the Green Bay Packers' pass-heavy and effective offense. Despite concerns that his early production might wane, the source argues his elite role is sustainable alongside Christian Watson. The source expresses a preference for Matthew Golden over Davante Adams, suggesting he is a player to target in trades.
Insight pageMike Evans
PositiveValue28:58
The source recommends buying Mike Evans, who is positioned for a high-end WR1 role with 9-10 targets per game following Deebo Samuel's injury. Despite playing through injury, he is considered an elite asset in the Buccaneers' high-powered offense led by Brock Purdy, with the potential for back-to-back 20-point fantasy performances before his bye week.
Insight pageOllie Gordon
PositiveProjection18:09
Ollie Gordon is a recommended buy candidate projected as a top 18-20 running back for the remainder of the season. He is a big, strong back handling high volume, evidenced by his recent efficiency: 236 rushing yards, 5.0 yards per attempt, three touchdowns, 159 yards after contact, 13 first downs, and eight 10-plus yard rushes over his last three games. He also benefits from playing alongside the mobility of Malik Willis, which opens up running lanes.
Insight pageParker Washington
PositiveValue6:03
The source recommends buying high on Parker Washington, who is coming off a 30-point performance (6 catches, 124 yards, 2 TDs). His schedule opens up significantly post-bye with favorable matchups against Tennessee, the Giants, and Chicago, leading into high-upside playoff games against Dallas and Washington. The source explicitly prefers him over Davante Adams.
Insight pagePat Freiermuth
PositiveUsage10:08
Pat Freiermuth is expected to benefit from the recent injury to Roman Wilson and the resulting consolidation of targets within the Pittsburgh offense.
Insight pageRico Dowdle
NegativeDepth Chart8:54
The source identifies Rico Dowdle's impending return as the primary reason other fantasy managers are looking to sell Jaylen Warren, though the source dismisses this as a reason to offload Warren. Rico Dowdle is cited as a historical example of a running back who experienced a period of high production under head coach Dave Canales during the second half of last season.
Insight pageSamaje Perine
PositiveUsage38:54
Samaje Perine is seeing increased trust from the coaching staff and Joe Burrow, leading to his highest snap rate, rush attempts, and rushing yards of the season. He has effectively cut into Chase Brown's workload, stealing two catches and a touchdown in the Miami game.
Insight pageTank Bigsby
PositiveUsage42:22
The source recommends buying low on Tank Bigsby, noting his high-touch role is trending upward, evidenced by 24 touches in Week 5. He is efficient, averaging over five yards per carry with the sixth-most yards after contact in the league, and could see back-loaded scoring similar to Travis Etienne's second-half surge last year.
Insight pageTetairoa McMillan
PositiveValue75:24
The source explicitly prefers Tetairoa McMillan over Davante Adams and recommends him as a target to acquire in trade discussions.
Insight pageTravis Etienne
NegativeProjection45:07
The source references Travis Etienne's historical second-half scoring surge as a narrative comparison for the potential back-loaded production of Tank Bigsby.
Insight pageTravis Kelce
PositiveValue12:04
Travis Kelce is a recommended buy candidate, with the source anticipating improved usage post-bye week. With Rashee Rice dealing with a hamstring injury and Xavier Worthy on IR, Kelce's target share—currently over 18%—is projected to trend above 20%. He is viewed as a reliable 'innings eater' who can provide TE1 weeks without requiring a premium trade price and is considered the biggest beneficiary in the current landscape to solidify the tight end position.

Episode Transcript
0:00right now. Players to buy, players to sell, players to buy high on, and players to sell low on. I'm Theo Greinger, lead fantasy analyst at
0:11Rotoire, helping you crush your fantasy leagues each and every week, each and every show. No time to waste. We're here in week six. You've got two months left
0:21essentially in the fantasy football season. And for your leagues, you need to start checking when the trade deadline is. Leagues are different, but
0:30trade deadlines are right around the corner. You're going to have only a few week window in some leagues to get these
0:37trades done. And we want to be very calculated with the trades we're making.
0:42A quick note, one way we can win fantasy football trades is manipulating the by-weeks. If you're a fantasy manager and you have a really strong record
0:52right now, let's say you have a 4 in one start, let's say that you have a 5-0 start, then buying players from fantasy
1:00managers with losing records who are holding players on buys is a great way to pay 80 cents on the dollar for a
1:09really strong fantasy asset. Is there a manager out there in your league who's holding a player like a Sam Laaporta at
1:16tight end and they're sitting on a 1 and4 record and they want to win this week? Never underestimate fantasy
1:25managers how short their windows are in terms of how they're viewing the season.
1:32Fantasy managers do do not want to lose games, but we are not at a point of panic. But there is panic out there in
1:38the marketplace, especially with all these injuries. So, just start looking at the teams on buys. Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami, Minnesota. If there's a
1:48fantasy manager in your league who has a losing record, consider sending a trade offer for a premium asset player on one
1:56of those teams and offer 80 cents on the dollar. Do not underestimate the short-term thinking of fantasy managers and how nervous they are about having a
2:07dreaded two and four, one in five type start. So, we want to manipulate the trade market. On the flip side, you also
2:16don't want to panic if you're holding these sort of elite assets. Try to get through the week. This is a weekly game.
2:21Uh we don't want to panic through through by-weeks, but we want to use by-weeks and manipulate them to try to make the best possible deals. Now,
2:30here's a couple players that we want to talk about this week as trade targets.
2:34We want to buy high on Matthew Golden.
2:37And I think this is an interesting one because I talked to a lot of content creators both at Rotoire and outside of
2:43Roto Wire, some of the sharpest people in fantasy football I talk to on a regular basis. And what's interesting is if you ask, now we're talking reddraft
2:53trades, but if you ask a really sharp Dynasty manager, go ask the sharpest Dynasty manager that you know, someone who's deep in the weeds of Dynasty,
3:02what's Matthew Golden worth in Dynasty right now, and there's a pause and having to think about it when it comes to Golden as a Dynasty asset, which is
3:12really interesting. and it's it's affecting his reddraft market where when you look at Matthew Golden, the the start that he has is simply phenomenal,
3:22but it's coinciding with an even better start from Christian Watson. So, you look at Golden, he's averaging 15.7 points per game, but it feels like
3:33fantasy managers are not fully embracing that one. 15.7 points per game. That's near wide receiver one level scoring.
3:43That's high-end wide receiver 2 level scoring. And that's where Matthew Golden is right now. And the underlying statistics are supporting potentially
3:51even more. He's averaging a 24% target share, which is highest on Green Bay, even higher than Christian Watson. He's top 10 in wide receiver yards after the
4:02catch. So he's top 10 in Yak. And he's averaging 2.6 six targets per route run, which is elite. That's the same as
4:10Chris, the same as Drake London essentially. And you can find all of these advanced statistics over on Roto Wire's uh statistics pages. We have
4:20advanced stats and player pages with phenomenal data. Awesome stuff. Go check those out. But these numbers support Matthew Golden doing this for the entire
4:31season. Then you talk about the pedigree of player. You're talking about a guy who was a firstround draft pick. This was the first time in more than 10 years
4:39that Green Bay took a wide receiver in the first round. And they did so with Matthew Golden. So slow start to his
4:44rookie year is always going to affect perceptions of the player. You always get this perception of what do you do right out the gate? And there's fantasy
4:55managers out there who are unervous that this Matthew Golden early season production could sort of wayne as the season progresses. If anything, that
5:0515.7 points per game could go up based on how passappy and how effective these Green Bay Packers are. So Christian Watson is awesome, but it feels like the
5:16trade window with most smart fantasy managers is completely closed with Christian Watson. Like fantasy managers are are are are sharper these days.
5:24There's more smart information out there. Sites like ours at Rotoire where fantasy managers aren't going to say, "Yo, I I paid a fifth round pick for
5:32Christian Watson. He's averaging 21 plus points per game. I'm just going to sell him." No. People understand that he's got an elite role, but Matthew Golden
5:40also has an elite role. And these two wide receivers can both thrive next to one another. This is a very passy
5:47offense. So kick the tires on Matthew Golden. And also quick note, kick the tires on Matthew Golden in Dynasty, not only reddraft. I think the trade window
5:56is still open for Golden playing phenomenal phenomenal football right now. Buy high on Parker Washington.
6:04Parker Washington really slow uh week uh the previous week in week four sort of created this window. We talked about buying high buying low on Parker
6:13Washington last week. We're going to talk about buying high on Parker Washington this week. Parker Washington gets another chance. Uh Houston's going
6:22to be a little trickier. This is a divisional game, but the game's in London. Washington coming off of a 30 point uh score. Unbelievable stuff from
6:31him. Easily his season high. Looked phenomenal doing it. Six catches for 124 yards, nine targets, two touchdown grabs. I talked to uh someone that
6:42there's a one a person that I sort of talk about trades and waiverwire content with. big shout out if you're listening
6:48to this show, mentioned to me that he was able to send a a package to acquire Parker Washington in his league. Sort of
6:57just keeps my my my mind going where I'm like, people are still selling Parker Washington. And when you look at Parker
7:04Washington, the season starts to really open up for him post bye-week. So, little tricky matchup against Houston this week, but then you've got the Colts
7:14uh at Baltimore, and then it gets really fun. Week 10 at Tennessee, week 11 at the New York Giants, week 12 Tennessee,
7:23week 13 at Chicago, and we just saw what those Green Bay wide receivers were able to do to that Chicago secondary. Maybe
7:31the secondary sort of clears things up by by week 13. And of course, we don't even want to think about weather, but we
7:37are going to get into, you know, the the ugly weather months in the Midwest. But that Chicago game looks awesome for him.
7:44Then you look at the fantasy football playoffs. Parker Washington gets Dallas on the road in week 16. And then when it
7:53comes down to all the money in week 17 in money making week 17, Parker Washington has a home game against the
8:03Washington Commanders. About as good as it gets for Parker Washington. So kick the tires on Parker Washington. Big shout out to people who are still
8:12getting trades done for Parker Washington. See if your league mates are not aware of what they're holding and they think they're selling high this
8:18week. 30-point game. It's usually like part for the course. You want to kick the tire, see if you can sell that
8:24player. But with Parker Washington, you might get another 30-pointer in week 16 or week 17 when all the money is on the
8:32line in the fantasy football playoffs.
8:34Another player to buy high on. And it's another sort of like it's a heat check.
8:40Do you understand what you're holding here? If you have Jaylen Warren, there's going to be fantasy managers out there that think that this is just the
8:48ultimate sell window. I drafted this guy in the seventh round. I drafted this guy in the sixth round. Therefore, this is
8:54this big sell window. Rico Dow's coming back. I've got all these talking heads on big cable TV networks who also talk
9:01fantasy football who will tell me to sell a guy like Jaylen Warren because guess what? The touches are going to go
9:07down a little bit uh because Rico Dattle eventually is going to come back. Mike McCarthy uh confirmed that this is the
9:15offensive focal point in Pittsburgh.
9:19Jaylen Warren is cooking. He's got at least 20 points in his last three games played. He's also had at least 20
9:27touches in three games played. His work as a receiver is truly elite. He just scored 36.8 PPR points, but you're going
9:34to get a bunch of big talking heads. And hey, we're we're big over here at Rotoire. We've got a huge reach, but
9:40there are networks out there that have an even bigger reach and they're going to tell you that the end is coming for
9:45Jaylen Warren. I'm not so sure about that. Aaron Rogers is a kingmaker when it comes to guys that he likes and
9:53hyperutilization.
9:55Aaron Rogers is in there calling his own plays. Aaron Rogers is running this offense and we saw just how pure Kenneth
10:01Gainwell was able to run over the second half of last season with Rogers hyperargeting him on a weekly basis.
10:08That can happen again with Jaylen Warren. Now you've got this window for guys like Jeremy Bernard and Pat Frymouth to uh benefit from the recent
10:17injury to Roman Wilson, Michael Pitman on the IR, and the consolidation of touches and targets in Pittsburgh. But Jaylen Warren is also going to benefit
10:26off of this. Warren is playing unbelievable football. His role is truly elite. And just to sell this player because you think you're selling high is
10:37sort of the wrong process. There's guys we're going to talk about sell highs, but it's not Jaylen Warren. Jaylen Warren is is running pure right now, and
10:44we want to heat check. The fantasy manager is holding him to see what they have. Send a reasonable offer. Don't send a disrespectful offer. Send a
10:53reasonable offer out there. And if you get a counter or you get, hey, we're close, but I'm not interested right now.
11:00Then keep hitting that manager with offers. Uh, communication and trade offers. I like staying stone stone silent unless it's my buddy. Um, let the
11:09offer speak for itself. Anytime a fantasy manager writes a bunch of notes, that helps you a lot. You don't have to
11:16be the one helping them out. Unless it's some little tiny note you can give them just to close the deal. We want to kind
11:21of stay silent on this stuff. Let other managers be the one to be chatty in the in the trade negotiations. You sort of
11:27keep it tight to the vest. Let your trade offer do the talking. But Jaylen Warren, send out that offer. It's a heat
11:33check time.
11:36Catch every drive, every play, and every touchdown poolside stadium swim at Circa Resort and Casino in downtown Las Vegas.
11:42Take it all in from six temperature controlled pools. Or claim your place in a lounge chair, daybed, or private cabana. With a massive 143 ft screen and
11:52immersive audio, you won't just watch the action, you'll feel it. Make Stadium Swim at Circa Resort and Casino your game day ritual. Reserve your spot in
12:00the sun today at circaos vegas.com.
12:04Another player that we want to buy and this is an interesting one. Um, and it's one that you probably don't expect me to
12:10say, but it's Travis Kelce. And I'm feeling very good about where things are going with Kansas City post bye-week.
12:17Uh, because they they get it. Kansas City just gets it right now. Um, they're playing very well. And you have this
12:26Andy Reid sort of revenge tour after last year's disappointments.
12:32You've got a a sneaky schedule coming up with the Chargers who've been pretty good against tight ends, Seattle on the road, Denver on the road, but you've got
12:40Rashi Rice dealing with a hamstring injury.
12:44This sort of opens things up for Travis Kelce's role to look a little bit more like it did in weeks one and weeks two
12:51than it did the last two weeks. So Kelsey's averaging 13 points on the year, but the targets and the volume have gone down the last two weeks. He's
13:01got six targets over the last two weeks.
13:03Um, and then of course had the by-week.
13:05So, excuse me, not the last two weeks.
13:07Weeks three and weeks four, he had six total targets. But week two, we saw an 11 target game. Kelsey's a major part of
13:15this offense. He's got over an 18% target share on the season, which I think could trend over 20 if Rashi Rice
13:22kind of remains banged up. Then we've also got Taekquin Thornton who had two touchdown catches last week. The last time they played ex, excuse me, I keep I
13:31keep fumbling the bag and like talking about like last week. Okay. Um Casey was on a buy last week. The last time they
13:37played, Taekquin Thornton had two touchdown grabs, which was a one-off, but it's still significant for them to lose Taekquin Thornton, averaging 11.2
13:46points per game. Now, he's on the IR.
13:49So, there's going to be some fluctuation in who's catching the football in KC.
13:53And we look like looking at old reliable in Travis Kelce. Think of him as an innings eater here. He's going to get
13:59you tight end one weeks. That's why you're buying Travis Kelce, but you're not going to have to pay a premium to
14:05get him. the window is open to trade for Travis Kelce. I anticipate that the usage is going to look better postby by
14:12week than it did going in. And a lot of times we're searching and I certainly I'm doing that. If you're following my
14:17waiverwire show, dropping it every week here on the podcast, on the YouTube feed, we talked about Cyrus Allen a couple weeks ago as as sort of a guy to
14:24add. People are speculating on Tyreek Hill. Tyreek Hill, if he makes a debut, it's not going to be till November anyway. speculating on Allen,
14:33speculating on Hill, people speculating on Jaylen Royals, but the biggest beneficiary is going to be Travis Kelce.
14:40It's the lowhanging fruit, but it's there for us and he can sort of solidify your tight end room. Another player to
14:48buy and kick the tires on, Chuba Hubard.
14:52Quick, ask the fantasy manager that knows the most fantasy football how many points per game Chuba Hubard is averaging this season. It's almost like
15:00a double take number because it's disgustingly good. Chuba Hubard is averaging 19.8 points per game. 19.8.
15:09His rush success rate is near 50%. It's up towards the very top of the NFL.
15:15Elite running back type stuff. Then you talk about Chuba Hubard yards per carry, over five yards per carry. You talk about the consistency in scoring where
15:25Choua Hubard has been incredibly consistent as well. It's not like spike week dud, spike week dud. It's consistent. Chuba hubard's been scoring
15:34like a very consistent product here. You talk about 25.9 points in week four, 15 in week three, 14.4 in week 2, 23.7 in
15:46week one. He's never scored fewer than 14.4 points in any week of the season.
15:52post buy week. It's another one where fantasy managers don't necessarily understand what they're holding. Chuba Hubard should be treated like a low-end
16:00RB1 right now. And I think you're going to be able to get him for mid RB2 prices. So, look at Chuba Hubard. And
16:07it's also a potential uh two for one type get potentially if you're in a situation and you're we talked about this like leveraging these two for one
16:16trades. If I'm going to have to take on a two and a two for one, I want to take on an asset that maybe the fantasy
16:21manager doesn't understand what it is.
16:23Chuba Hubard really strong asset. Quick note for Dynasty managers, he's a really fun innings eater right now. You're going to get uh RB1 production, but
16:34you're not going to have to pay a first round price tag in a Dynasty rookie trade. So, like I'm able to love getting
16:40these sort of running backs that I don't have to pay future firsts on in Dynasty.
16:44Again, reddraft. This is a reddraft show, but we're giving out nuggets for dynasty managers because I know a lot of you out there consume my content play
16:50both. I I'm heavy in the streets of both. I'm out there earning in both formats. Um, so I get it. The raft
16:57trades, dynasty trades are different beasts, but he's a target everywhere.
17:01Kick the tires and see what fantasy managers are thinking in your league when it comes to Chuba Hubard. And also Dave Canales, the head coach of the
17:08Carolina Panthers. A lot of the talk, and I guess I'll take some credit for this, a lot of the talk has been guys
17:14like Bryce Young, Tedo McMillan, Jaylen Coker. Shout out to my guy Jacob Gibbs.
17:19We've talked about it on the two shows we're doing here on and Beyond the Box score all the time. But the Dave Canales
17:26QB Whisperer narrative is back, but the more recent uh like narrative with Canales has been RB whisperer. We saw it multiple years where running backs put
17:37up huge numbers with Dave Canales in his offenses. Last year we saw it in Rico with Rico Dow during the second half of
17:43the year. It was like a month, but it was Rico Dattle insanity for a month. We saw it the uh with Chuba Hubard earlier
17:50where he averaged like a 15 point per game season with with Canales previously. And then we remember Canales uh overseeing the Rashad White offense
18:00in Tampa Bay when Rashad White has had his best season as a pro. So everything's there. Now we talk about manipulating the trade the by-weeks. How
18:10about buying Olli Gordon and I remember when I had Ollie Gordon enthusiasm on the podcast for the waiverwire. There's people like criticizing me for this one.
18:20They were like, you know, these guys like Theo Griminger are telling you to pick up Olly Gordon. It's a terrible pickup. Like, don't listen to this guy.
18:28Olly Gordon in this offense. It's unsustainable. Uh, don't pick him up.
18:32But we had Olly Gordon ranked pretty highly. Um, Ollie Gordon was right there with Brilan Allen as the pickup that week. Ranked number one, ranked number
18:39two. Uh, opportunity. And also Olly Gordon was a player that I liked at Oklahoma State. If you consumed my Dynasty content when I was at uh Fantasy
18:49Points, we talked about Ole Gordon a lot. His performance at the Senior Bowl was very strong. I was at in Mobile
18:55watching him live. Ole Gordon's huge like that's a big dude. When you're down on at the Senior Bowl, you you talk to
19:02the players. It's one of the real benefits. And I'll be covering the Senior Bowl this year for Rotoire. Can't wait to be down in Mobile. Love being
19:09down there. Uh the draft starts in Mobile. They say that, but it really does. It's like half the draft is there.
19:16Half the drafted players are in Mobile some years. It's like 40% probably this year. Um you get to talk to the players
19:23on the field and it's it's like you 15 minutes and there's all the players. So you maybe get to talk to like two or
19:29three guys quickly. Um had a chance to like just ask Olly Gordon like one question. He's like a tight end size guy
19:38when he were at in Mobile. um big, strong, long arms, has a big frame. And you talk about like some of the tight
19:46ends these days are like the the smaller sub 245 lb guys. Gordon's Gordon's a big back and he's taking on this high volume
19:55role and he's running away with it. Um so we like seeing it and I think a lot of fantasy managers are going to say I
20:00don't care. It's a Miami Dolphin. I'm going to get rid of him. He's a running back three. I think he's a top 18 to 20
20:08scorer over the rest of the season. Um I I said this on the show with Jacob Gibbs the other day. I said top 18 to 20
20:16running back for the rest of the season.
20:19Look what he's done the last couple weeks. Okay, over the last three games played, he's had 236 rushing yards, five yards per attempt, three touchdowns,
20:29159 yards after contact. And then here's the really good numbers. 13 first downs and eight 10 plus uh yard rushes. So
20:40he's ripping off these big runs. It's also an offense where Malik Willis over the last two weeks two after over the
20:46last three weeks Malik Willis has had two really strong rushing performances.
20:51So Gordon benefits from the uh the playing next to the mobility of Malik Willis. It's just the threat of Malik Willis. defenses have to account for it.
21:00Opens up running lanes for Ollie Gordon.
21:02It's just like simple football. You think about old school option football, all that kind of stuff. Olly Gordon also is dominating when it comes to the
21:11touches. Like 65% snaps last week, 17 carries, 17 routes run. Uh and then you have
21:22Jaylen Wright who only played 15% of the snaps is an afterthought. had six carries, only one route run. So, Olli Gordon dominating there. He had 86 yards
21:32and a touchdown. The Miami on a by-week.
21:35So, if I have a team with a winning record, I'm looking to buy Olli Gordon.
21:38And also, for you dynasty managers out there, I bought Olly Gordon in a league.
21:41So, I picked him up in a bunch of leagues uh on on the reddraft side. And now I bought him in a Dynasty league for
21:47cheap. People don't I mean, it's a it's a player you're not going to pay overpay for in dynasty. But then in reddraft, I
21:54think fantasy managers just don't understand what they're having. I think postby by week, he can go into your RB2 slot, into your flex week, flex slot,
22:02and it's set it and forget it. Now, there's a buy low window right now for Brock Party, and I think it's probably
22:08the last bill low window for Brock Pery um of the entire season. I think people are are really kind of understand what
22:15they are holding in Brock Party. But there's also fant fantasy managers out there who are into counting stats and into recency bias and all those things
22:23that affect you mentally but nec probably shouldn't in fantasy. But you've got Brock Party who hasn't scored very well the last two weeks, but we
22:33knew this was going to be the case. He survives though. It's not like he puts up gross numbers. He has two touchdown
22:41passes in week four, two touchdown passes in week five, but it wasn't like it was in week two, week three when he's
22:47putting up smash weeks. It didn't feel like it did in week one when it was just like pure joy and San Francisco beating
22:55the hell out of the Rams in Australia.
22:57But it was Denver and it was Seattle and Denver and Seattle. Brock Party passes the test. What's also interesting is we
23:05had another signal here. Pertie had 15 rush attempts the last two weeks combined by far uh higher than at any point earlier in the year. So we also
23:16saw that that touchdown that was called back for him. So like party's party's earlier this year and and that was Arizona game, but Pertie's in his bag as
23:24a runner too. He's a top three quarterback for me rest of the season.
23:29Can I pay a little less than that? Can I two for one my way into Brock Party?
23:34When you look at Brock Party's next two weeks, phenomenal Washington Commanders, we talked about how bad that secondary is, how generous Washington has been,
23:43not only against opposing wide receivers, but against opposing quarterbacks. We just saw Jameus Winston rip this Washington Commander defense to shreds. We saw Sam Darnold put up four
23:52passing touchdowns against Washington.
23:55Then they go into Atlanta. tricky spot, but Atlanta has been great against the run and they've been uh beatable with the pass. So, Brock Party has a chance
24:07to put up two massive smash week performances.
24:11I'll probably be using some Brock Party lineups in DFS this week. Big shout out to the team over at Rotoire for what
24:20we've done on the DFS side. Your Roto Wire subscription also gets you uh access to all of our DFS content.
24:27Awesome stuff. On the DFS side, I've used the DFS optimizer for back-to-back weeks. I had a huge DFS week um in week
24:36four and then I ran it back. Had another uh PL like $1,200 uh win in week five using this optimizer. So, I'm making
24:45money using the tools that we have at Rotoire. And you can too. Go check them out. rotoire.com get any access to get

25:11Go check out Better. It's BETR. So many cool things you can do over on the Better app. It's a really really awesome
25:17way to get a little action, extra action on fantasy football. Uh, awesome stuff over on better. Go check it out.
25:24Continuing to talk trades here. We're 25 minutes in. Lot to talk about cuz we are locked in right now. We are in a perfect
25:31window to make this stretch run. Again, two months left before the start of the fantasy football playoffs. We want to maximize every single day and we're
25:40going to do so with really sharp trades.
25:42Buy low. Bashel Tutin. He's insulated and he has a hight touch role in a very good offense. Two touchdowns were called
25:51back in week four and back-to-back 11-point games have sort of opened up this window of opportunity for you to trade for him. Fantasy managers out
26:00there are going to look at points.
26:02They're not going to necessarily look at context. The good managers like yourself consuming shows like this are going to look at context. But you're in leagues
26:10with play with fantasy managers who simply just look at how many points a a player has scored for the course of the
26:15year and that's it. And they're just they're just continually going off of that. Or if a player scored a ton last
26:21week, that's sort of what they're looking at. But with Bashel Tutin, he's averaging over five yards a carry. He has the sixth most yards after contact
26:33in the league. So, he's running really well this year and he's in an unbelievably good role right now in Jacksonville where the touches have been
26:42trending up and up and up for him. Uh, we look at what Toutin was able to do last week on a on a touch share, 24
26:50touches in week five, 19 touches in week four, and 17 touches in week three.
26:58Trending up and up and up. 24 touches is really, really good for him. The receiving yardage hasn't necessarily been there, but he had 24 receiving
27:08yards last week, which is a nice signal, but only rushed for 3.3 yards per carry against Philly. By far a season low, but
27:1722 rush attempts, by far a season high.
27:20So, we're buying into the usage when it comes to Bashel Tutin. Also, if we look at sort of how the season progressed
27:27last year for Jacksonville, Travis ETN had a bunch of big uh highscoring weeks over the second half of the season. Bashel Tutin could have
27:38the same narrative this year where a lot of his scoring is going to be backloaded. Uh continuing to look at some players that we should consider
27:46trading high for Mike Evans. grown ass man. Alpha wide receiver one Mike Evans you'll find him in Canton eventually
27:57absolute baller absolutely consistent amazing career had his best game as a San Francisco 49er against Seattle. We heard all week Seattle pass defense
28:08Seattle pass defense. Uh I talked about Brock Pury vers Seattle pass defense on a bunch of shows. I talked about it with
28:14Jim Coventry on the start set and Mike Evans put it on him. Seven catches, 113 yards, and a touchdown on 10 targets.
28:22Now you've got Debo Samuel Hurt. This is a decimated wide receiver room. And Mike Evans, these uh 10 target games, this
28:32could be the norm. You could be looking at nine or 10 targets uh consistently for the next two weeks. And we talked
28:39about this schedule for Brock Party. How about for Mike Evans? Washington Commanders, Atlanta Falcons. Mike Evans can eat in both of those games. High
28:48utilization. No Debo is going to change this offense. We could have talked George KD, but we're talking Mike Evans right now. Mike Evans is in store for a
28:58strong high-end wide receiver one role.
29:01He could put up back-to-back 20 point weeks heading into the by-week. He is going to be trending up and we want to
29:07kick tires to see if we can buy him. A lot of agists out there. There's there's agists out there who love selling these
29:14sort of older guys. And of course there's and again this could be warranted. All these 49ers keep going down with injuries. So people don't feel
29:22safe with these 49ers. And it's Mike Evans who himself is injuryprone banged up. Um but he's playing through it right now. and he's got that window with that
29:31by week to get healthy and right and in week eight just got to get through these next two weeks with two smash weeks and
29:37you're holding a a really honestly an elite asset with all this attrition in the San Francisco wide receiver room and just eye test. Mike Evans looks awesome.
29:47He's got that confidence playing here and Brock Pury playing at this phenomenally high level at quarterback.
29:53Another quarterback we want to buy high on Jordan Love. I said this on the show with Jacob Gibbs the other day on his
29:59channel. Jordan Love is going to be a top five quarterback over the next three weeks of the season, maybe the next
30:04four. Um, we talk about this schedule for the Green Bay Packers and it's about as good as it gets. So, we have the
30:14Packers coming off of this awesome win, awesome win in Chicago. Now, you've got Dallas coming to Green Bay, followed up by a road game in Detroit. Detroit is
30:25horrendous against opposing quarterbacks. Then you got the Carolina Panthers who have a strong secondary but a good offense and the game's in Green
30:35Bay. Um and that's a prime time game. It feels like an over environment. Then on November 8th, you've got Green Bay going
30:42into New England. Drake May's on a heater again. good secondary for New England, but I'm looking at four games that could could tilt over and with the
30:50next three weeks, I'm looking at a top five quarterback. And I don't think people are sort of wise to what Jordan
30:57Love necessarily is right now. Jordan Love is is awesome. He had four 40 plus yard completions against Chicago. Four
31:05of those ridiculous stuff. Um, there's a self-awareness in the play calling in Green Bay and Jordan Love is is out there cooking. A quarterback who has an
31:16elite deep ball and is getting to utilize the deep ball at a very high rate because that's what Green Bay can
31:22do right now. Marshon Lloyd had two touchdowns last week, but we're looking at a passing offense and a consolidated one. We talked about Matthew Golden. We
31:30talked about Christian Watson. We've talked about Tucker Craft in previous weeks. Jordan Love had four 40 plus yard completions and one went to each of
31:40those guys. And this was the first Packers quarterback to have four 40 yard completions in a game since Brett Favre.
31:47Brett Favre. We're talking Brett Favre.
31:50Um 367 passing yards, two touchdowns last week, and an unbelievable schedule.
31:56Check out Jordan Love. Now, it's not all like let's trade for these guys. Let's talk about a guys we can potentially
32:02sell. And anyone who's consumed my content over the years knows I'm a big Bree Hall guy. Um I'm not a Jets fan,
32:11but I live on Long Island, so we're sort of like quasi Jets fans. Support them.
32:15Um Bree Hall season started off tremendously. The this like Bellcow role. We talked about Bree Hall as a potential buy. Um I'm holding a bunch of
32:26Bree Hall bags in Dynasty. I'm sure a lot of you guys are as well. I'm worried though, Bree Hall could be back against
32:32New England this week. Bree Hall's averaging 14.2 points per uh points per game on the season, but it's been sort of a mixed bag. It's been an
32:43eight-pointer against Detroit, 14.2 against Green Bay, and then he's got that big week one against Tennessee. Um, I worry though because Brilan Allen has
32:53done enough over the last two weeks that I think he's cut into Bree Hall's workload like sort of no matter what.
33:01Bree Hall is still going to be the more important running back in New York. But it looks like it could be a potential
33:08quasi committee backfield 6040 split.
33:12And Brilland Allen has averaged 4.2 yards per carry and 4.8 eight yards per carry over the last two games played.
33:19And Brilen Allen had like that massive week five game against the the Browns.
33:25And the Jets won with a great defensive effort and a ton of Brillin Allen.
33:30Garrett Wilson, too, but a ton of Brillin Allen. Um Brillin Allen, we know Aaron Glenn likes him likes him. And I've talked about this for years.
33:40Brillin Allen's just the kind of player that coaches gravitate towards. He's he's a massive jacked huge running back.
33:48Like the closest in terms of like size to like a Derrick Henry. See people out there criticizing Brilland Allen's speed. The guy's not a burner, but he
33:55wasn't a burner at Wisconsin either. Put up a ton. But Brilan Allen's done enough to cut into this backfield. Now, Bree
34:01Hall will still dominate the targets out of the back field. And we know that he's a very good pass catcher. He had uh uh
34:09the five catch game in week two. So, we felt pretty good about that. But I worry a little bit that Bree Hall has a capped
34:17ceiling moving forward because of Brillin Allen and an offense that will not be able to support two running backs putting up huge numbers. So, I think
34:25it's a potential window to sell Bree Hall. Again, we're not selling him just to sell. He understand you're trading a talented player who could get it done,
34:35but I worry a little bit about the threat of Brillin Allen and how the Jets are just going to embrace using two
34:40running backs and the challenges Bruce Hall is going to face playing on this offense. So, we're willing to trade Bruce Hall. He's a premium enough asset
34:50and a premium enough name that I can potentially tier up from Hall to a better and safer asset. One other player
34:58to consider selling uh and I talked about this last week is Jaylen Herz. And with Jaylen Herz and the Eagles, you've
35:07got a potential window of hope. And I've talked about this on a couple of shows where the there's a window for
35:14Philadelphia to put up some good numbers over the next four weeks of the year, but I'm really not trusting this offense
35:21when we get to the tail end of the season and into the fantasy football playoffs. understand if you move Jaylen Herz right now, Carolina at home, Dallas
35:30at home, Commanders on the road, Giants at home, that's a really good schedule for him. The problem being is Philadelphia is not running the ball
35:39like they used to. We don't know about the the return of Saquon Barkley yet.
35:44And even so, Saquon was not running it like Saquon. It's been really a poor run out for him to start the season. Now,
35:50you're looking at guys like Damen Pierce. Devonte Smith could return this week. Um, but there's a lot sort of put on him, a lot for Dallas. But a shout
36:00out to our guy Dan Fornick. He dropped his his offensive line article over at Rotoire. It's elite. Dan's the best in
36:06the business when it comes to offensive line content. Go check that one out at rotoire.com.
36:12But Dan dropped Philadelphia. Was Philadelphia was his second ranked offensive line heading into the season.
36:18They are all the way down to 21. Uh, a disgusting fall. Um the Eagles have and also like the the offensive line quality
36:28has gone way down. The rush and the rush rushing like offense has gone so down in terms of what we're used to in
36:35Philadelphia under Nick Cerriani and with Jaylen Herz that the Eagles are facing all these like unstacked boxes on like 41 carries this year which is the
36:45ninth highest rate and they have the 13th highest stuff rate 17th in EPA per play. So all the underlying metrics are
36:53stacked up against Jaylen Herz and I think people will still pay for the name. Can I use Jaylen Herz in a trade
36:59to get Jordan Love in some leagues? I think I can. I think that gets the conversation started and I think most
37:05fantasy managers are going to look at it and say it's close enough. And some fantasy managers are going to say I'm
37:09actually getting Jaylen Herz, the guy who's won me all these leagues in years past for Jordan Love, who I maybe drafted as my quarterback too. I would
37:17rather have Jordan Love rest a season than Jaylen Herz. And it's probably a tier above when it when it comes down to
37:23things like in six-point passing touchdown leagues for sure. Even in four-point passing touchdowns leagues, I'm looking at Jordan Love. It's not
37:30even close really for me. But is it the same feeling for your league? For your league mates, for the other managers in
37:36your league, I would kick the tires on this one. See about selling him.
37:41Continue to look at some potential sells.
37:44We're going to consider selling low on Chase Brown. What is going on with our usage king, Chase Brown? The thing
37:53holding Chase Brown up is he's got a 15% target share on the season. Um, looked great as a receiver when when we looked
38:02at uh what he was able to do in week four when he couldn't run the ball and they just kept passing to him over and
38:08over and over again. I've talked about Chase Brown as a buy candidate on this show a couple of times.
38:15I've been wrong on a couple of these recommendations. I think I'm right more than I'm wrong on these, but with Chase
38:22Brown, um, we got the 19-pointer in week four against Jacksonville, and that was sort of the win, but then we see Miami, and it wasn't supposed to
38:32be like this. The Miami Dolphins in Miami. This was supposed to be a Chase Brown smash week. A lot of people used
38:39him in DFS. He ends up with seven points scored. And Cincinnati wins. They score 31 points but 31 points scored and Chase
38:48Brown scores only seven. Then you look at the increased usage for Sam Perine.
38:54Perine like a veteran running back that Zack Taylor trusts Joe Burrow trusts and he has a highest snap rate of the
39:02season, the highest rush attempts of the season, the highest rushing yards of the season, gets 68 rushing yards. So Sam Perine dominates the rushing production.
39:12And then here's the really annoying part. Perine also steals two catches and a touchdown catch. So Perine playing more snaps. This isn't rocket science.
39:24You play more snaps as a running back.
39:27You have more opportunities to score. I hope this isn't signal. You've got Baltimore on the road in week seven is about as tilting as it gets for Chase
39:36Brown managers coming out of a buy. Two things can happen here. Chase Brown can do what Chase Brown does. He post byee
39:44the usage can just skyrocket. The scoring production could skyrocket. We saw it in 2025. We saw it in 2024. Chase Brown second half of the year usage god
39:54king numbers puts up amazing numbers with amazing usage and just does it over the stretch run. Does it in the fantasy
40:01playoffs or maybe there's just a small window that things are changing a little bit in Cincinnati. I worry a little bit.
40:09I worry a little bit. We're not telling you you have to sell Chase Brown, but be open-minded to maybe it's not going to
40:16be a perfect run out. Now, 16 points per game last year and like 15.9 the year before. 16 and a half I think last year.
40:24I'm not looking at stats. It just I've said this so many times. 16 and a half points per game last year for Chase
40:29Brown. 15.9 the year before.
40:33Could it trail off a little bit more?
40:35Right now, we're we're there. Right now you've got Chase Brown at 13 points per game. Is he a 13 points per game guy? Is
40:42this just the new normal? I think that there's fantasy managers out there who are still going to look to buy. I'm I
40:51think you can also play this both ways.
40:53If there's panic selling for Chase Brown, you can buy him. But if there's managers out there who are treating him like he's just going to be like this
41:01onetwo turn pick, then I think he's a sell. So I think more likely than not, he's a sell. And also, it sounds like
41:07I'm speaking out both sides of my mouth here, but players can be buys and sells based on the market for them. Sort of
41:13like stocks. A certain stock you might not like if it's $110 a share, but if it's $68 a share and it drops, you might
41:21buy in uh and think that's a more appropriate price. Same thing with fantasy football assets. So, Chase Brown, we're looking to potentially sell
41:29if fantasy managers are treating him like the player that you were drafting between like the 10th and 15th overall pick. So, really kind of troubling stuff
41:39in that Miami game. Wasn't supposed to be like this. I don't know if Zack Taylor got that memo that it was
41:44supposed to be a Chase Brown Smash week.
41:47Now, I got myself in trouble last week for this one. Got myself in trouble and I'm going to own my L's. Last week I
41:53talked about selling Acha Ibuka, talked about selling Bucky Irving, worried about the Bucks offense, and then the Bucks go out and beat the Cowboys, and
42:01Bucky Irving has his best game ever as a pro. But I think that the 165 rushing yards and two touchdowns does crazy
42:09stuff to people. Can I use Bucky Irving to sort of tear up here? Our fantasy managers like, "Okay, I've got a top
42:15five running back asset. Look what he just did." Dallas is a great matchup.
42:19things get a little more difficult when it comes to Bucky Irving. Still the threat of Jaylen Daniels, the runner.
42:25Um, again, I take a big L for this one cuz I hope I didn't cost you a smash week. And I used Bucky Irving in a
42:32couple spots last week um in Dynasty Leagues, not expecting him to score like this, but he certainly did. Could I use
42:39Bucky Irving to go get myself Kairen Williams in a two for one? Could I use Bucky Irving to get Schuba Hubard, which
42:49I think I feel a little bit better about, even though Bucky Irving was drafted way ahead of him early in the
42:53season. So, just looking at that, could I use Bucky Irving in a two for one to try to tear up to a really elite player
43:02like a James Cook type? Um, I think 165 yards and two touchdowns, you know, if you want to sort of throw the little
43:09note in like, "Hey, look, he's back. Uh, this is Bucky Irving. He's an RB1 rest of the year." some fantasy managers
43:15going to buy into that. So, it's a sell high window for Bucky Irving. We'll also talk about a sell high for Devonte
43:23Adams. And this is another We're not selling to sell, but we certainly saw what the Rams offense is. They had the
43:32best uh game. It was arguably the best game of the season where Devonte Adams puts up another massive massive score line. five catches, 51 yards, and two
43:44touchdown catches. And but it's created this window for Adams where he's had 39 points in week two, 20 in week three,
43:53and now 22 in week five.
43:56I mean, we're again, we're not selling to sell. And this week could be another huge one for Devonte Adams. But the
44:03target disparity here with Puka Nakua back seven targets for Devonte Adams and you and you had Puka with just a
44:14nextworldly 24 targets. So Puka over the last two weeks has had 36 targets. Devonte Adams over the last two weeks has had 16
44:25targets. still a very good number, but I think that you're going to have fantasy managers out there who are going to look
44:32at Devonte Adams as this 19 point per game average and be willing to pay you for it. Would I rather have Christian
44:39Watson? Absolutely. Can I use Devonte Adams in a two for one to get Christian Watson? And would I rather have Parker
44:46Washington? Yes, I would. So, there's a bunch of these wide receivers. Just kind of going down the list of wide receivers
44:52that I would rather have than Devonte Adams. I'm going to update my rest of season rankings over at Rotoire. Got to
44:58get through the rankings for this week.
44:59Those always drop. So, my flex rankings, Jim Coventry, Ian Harditz, Jagger May, um we're all dropping our flex rankings and our quarterback rankings every week.
45:09You can go find those. Uh awesome stuff collectively, Jeff Ericson. We're we're in there with really accurate, really strong rankings.
45:18And you can sort of pick and choose the contract creator whose rankings you want to go by for your own leagues. But just
45:24looking at Devonte Adams, would I rather have Tedo McMillan? Absolutely. Would I rather have Garrett Wilson? Yes. Would I rather have Parker Washington? Yes.
45:36Would I rather have Matthew Golden than Devonte Adams? I think I would. And that's one that'll get me in trouble, but I'm going to and I'm trying not to
45:44be an agist here, but Dvonte, we saw it last year where he sort of trailed off at the end of the year. I worry about
45:50that happening once again. Can I use the him to get a player like a Washington, a player like a Watson, who I think's
45:56going to have his best season of their careers and have a chance to be peing towards the fantasy playoffs? I think I
46:02would. So again, let me know in the chat, is that stupid? Am I wrong for these Bucky Bucky Irving Devonte Adams?
46:08And to put context in this, we're never selling just to sell. We're not blindly getting rid of a player. Um, but we are
46:14kicking the tires. We were blindly getting rid of Chargers a couple weeks ago. We kind of added that note to it.
46:20Um, we when it's bailout time, we're going to say bailout time. With all of these, you have to add context to the
46:25trades. One other player to consider trading, and this is probably the least exciting name that I've said on the show, but I I worry a bit about the
46:34Saints offense, and a lot of people are sort of pointing out the the very obvious fact that they're going up against Brian Flores LA last week. Um,
46:42but I look at Jawan Johnson, and when I say Brian Flores, the the Minnesota Vikings defense under Brian Flores, who's just an elite defensive
46:50coordinator with a an elite defensive unit. But I look at this New Orleans Saints offense and Chris Ave is the only
46:58one that I have true trust in. Jawan Johnson averaging 13.2 points per game right now. So counting stats wise, great stuff. But we did see sort of what the
47:08bottom could look like this past week against Minnesota with four catches for 16 yards and it's put a little bit of
47:16fear out there. New York this week is a much better matchup for him. But Jawan Johnson, I look at the season and he had
47:24the huge week three performance which has sort of boosted up his numbers. He had two touchdown catches that week, eight catches for 53 yards.
47:32It's kind of like shifted the counting stats for Jawan Johnson where I think there's going to be fantasy managers who view him as a more elite asset than he
47:42is. He is a very useful tight end for you to have. But could I use Jawan Johnson in a two for one trade to tier
47:51up and get a guy like a Sam Leaporta on a by-week? And that would have to be a really good piece with Jawan Johnson,
47:58but I think I would do that. There's a bunch of these tight ends that I think I would try to use him as a two for one
48:04asset where I throw a running back or a wide receiver in addition to Johnson to try to tear up to an elite tight end. I
48:13think that there's fantasy managers who are going to be open-minded to that. And the way that you can the way that you
48:17can like manipulate those sort of deals is look at fantasy managers who have weaknesses at wide receiver, weaknesses at running back, but they have a very
48:26strong tight end. if I have sort of deeper wide receiver or running back rooms, I can use that sort of a two for
48:34one offer to get myself a a much better asset at a one-off position. Um, and use a guy like Jawan Johnson who's probably
48:43closer to a tight end 12 uh level player to try to tear into a top five tight end with spike week ability. And remember,
48:52the value of the low-end tight end one, it's really usually pretty flat. Once we get into the the the mix towards the
49:00tail end of the season, the tight end 10 through tight end 16 range, usually really flattens out. So, looking at Jawan Johnson, if I can get a strong
49:11asset in a two for one deal involving Johnson, that's the kind of asset I'd want to move. One other note, Jordan
49:16Tyson is a change agent. Jordan Tyson will change this Saints offense as soon as he's healthy enough to play. Could we
49:25see Jordan Tyson post bye-week? I think that that's probably the the most logical window for him is week nine against the Cleveland Browns or week 10
49:36against the Panthers. Both games are in New Orleans and you have the bye-week and week eight. So Jordan Tyson when he
49:44comes back is going to do bad things to Jawan Johnson and Devon Vele and potentially running back targets. Chris Ave is insulated. Alav is a massive
49:54target earner but these other guys are going to tail off a little bit. So I want to sort of get ahead of things.
49:59Again add context to every trade. Uh you know your team better than I do. And if you have trade questions you want a
50:07couple of them uh answered live the start sit show on Rotoire YouTube. Jim Coventry and I usually go live around 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on Thursday
50:15mornings. We sneak in a couple of trade questions there. So, come in there, join. It's a lot of fun. And check out
50:20rotoire.com. Look at all of our rankings. You can also sort of gauge uh trades for the rest of the year based on
50:27some of the data we have on the site.
50:28Next to none in terms of how layered our site is with stuff that can help you win in fantasy football. I'm Theo Griminger.
50:36Um and we're going to see you soon.
50:37Let's go win week six. An important week for all of us. Let's crush our leagues this season.
