Speaker 1: Thanks to our audio engineer and my best friend Bryce,
Speaker 1: and of course our producer and mutual friend Rob Well.
Speaker 1: Congratulations to all of you FFPC players. You helped us
Speaker 1: reach capacity and the main event, the Big Gorilla, the
Speaker 1: Super Bracket, the Terminator, both Bestball tournaments. Can't thank you enough.
Speaker 1: A big shout out to all of you for supporting us.
Speaker 1: We certainly appreciate it and we're going to do our
Speaker 1: best to get you that million bucks that year, the
Speaker 1: pairamillion dollar Grand Prize and everything else that you're registered
Speaker 1: for this year. Thank you so much, and thank you again.
Speaker 1: Just because the season started doesn't mean we're not offering
Speaker 1: anything new. We do have the Weekly Challenge back again
Speaker 1: this year. There's no draft in the Weekly Challenge, there's
Speaker 1: no salary cap. You just pick ten players that you
Speaker 1: want and watch those lineups play out throughout the weekend.
Speaker 1: You can win up to two thy five hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: You can compete in ten, thirty or one hundred team contest.
Speaker 1: The only slant is you can only pick one player
Speaker 1: per team in each of your lineup. So if you
Speaker 1: want Patrick Mahomes, you can't have Hollywood Brown. If you
Speaker 1: want Joe Burrow, you can't have t Higgins. If you
Speaker 1: want Jalen hurts. You can't have sakuon Barkley. So that
Speaker 1: is the slant. That's what makes it so fun, so maddening,
Speaker 1: and so enjoyable. To keep playing it throughout the season

Speaker 1: birthday boy at Jfarrell Elliott on AX, the Kentucky Fantasy
Speaker 1: Football State Championship Commissioner, Pharaoh Elliott. Happy birthday, my friend.
Speaker 4: Oh Balky, I'm so honored. What a wonderful, wonderful introduction
Speaker 4: that was.
Speaker 2: Thank you everyone that's reached out with my birthday. To
Speaker 2: day has been has been quite a day.
Speaker 1: The chat room is buzzing. You got some happy birthday
Speaker 1: wishes from Dom Jazzetti, from James Hicks obviously in there
Speaker 1: as well, and then Tom's asking me to bust out
Speaker 1: the Raiders chain early tonight. Well I was gonna wait,
Speaker 1: but in your honor, don it right now. We'll get
Speaker 1: the raiders chain on for it.
Speaker 4: No one in all writers.
Speaker 1: There you go by the way. I have to just
Speaker 1: bear with me one second. I have to show you
Speaker 1: what John Terry got me in Las Vegas. John Terry
Speaker 1: obviously one of our favorites. Of course he uh, because
Speaker 1: we're at Paris this year in Las Vegas, and I
Speaker 1: meant to get a photo with him with this on,
Speaker 1: and I didn't get a chance to. But he got
Speaker 1: me a beret pharaoh a just like you would see
Speaker 1: a national lampoons European vacation with my name on it.
Speaker 1: How about that right there?
Speaker 2: I don't see anything humorous about that. I see that balky.
Speaker 2: You know, the fringe foreign legion in the recruiting process could.
Speaker 4: Not have arrived with a better match for you.
Speaker 1: I think this is this is fantastic. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: fix it right now. But but yeah, he had it
Speaker 1: and uh and gave it to me, and I meant
Speaker 1: to get a photo with him with it on, but
Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to. So John, I'll have
Speaker 1: to wear it next year and we'll get a photo
Speaker 1: in front of that.
Speaker 2: That's wonderful. Obviously he didn't get me one because of
Speaker 2: the length of my hair. He knew that they did
Speaker 2: not have one big enough to handle that.
Speaker 1: The thing is, with hair like that, Pharaoh, you don't
Speaker 1: want to cover that up anyway with So so we
Speaker 1: have week one behind us, we are, we have week
Speaker 1: two in front of us. Doc says, I think it's
Speaker 1: perfect on you, Balky, he needs I couldn't even get
Speaker 1: it on straight, but yeah it does. It's very reminiscent
Speaker 1: of the National Lampoon's European vacation berets. So thank you, John,
Speaker 1: Kudos to you, and kudos again. Okay, let's get into
Speaker 1: it here tonight. Dallas Goddard officially ruled out by the Eagles.
Speaker 1: He will not play in that big tilt against Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. The guys taking over for him are Grant
Speaker 1: Calcatara and Kylon Grantson neither one of these guys, I
Speaker 1: would I would encourage you to start. Even in an
Speaker 1: FFPC league. There are no teams on buy this week.
Speaker 1: Even if you got hit with a kittle injury. I
Speaker 1: think you can do better. Maybe you can't. Maybe they're
Speaker 1: desperation plays. The reason I bring this up, Parrell is
Speaker 1: is we are going to learn a lot about DeVonta
Speaker 1: Smith and AJ Brown this week. We saw all throughout
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four season that there is this big
Speaker 1: emphasis on Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley running the ball.
Speaker 1: Quite frankly, they didn't have to throw the ball, and
Speaker 1: Week one against the Dallas Cowboys, they didn't really throw
Speaker 1: the ball then to AJ Brown or DeVonta Smith, you
Speaker 1: know who. They threw it to Dallas Goddard. So if
Speaker 1: Brown and Smith can't come through for you this week,
Speaker 1: remember Brown was dealing with that hamstring injury throughout the preseason,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have serious questions about these guys going forward
Speaker 1: because this is set up for them to have a
Speaker 1: big week, and if they don't, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on in Philadelphia.
Speaker 2: Oh, Bulky, you've opened up a can of worms that
Speaker 2: could occupy the home show and we have an engaging
Speaker 2: guest to come on with the show up. Okay, first
Speaker 2: of all, about the tight end position here. If we
Speaker 2: go back to pros versus shows, you will remember that
Speaker 2: I took a lot of heat when I told everyone
Speaker 2: to try to stay away from Goddard got it was
Speaker 2: not a top tight end choice. Now that Goddard has
Speaker 2: proven that his biggest disability is his lack of availability,
Speaker 2: we now go to the backup tight end, a tight
Speaker 2: end that has been there. Grant cal Kata has been
Speaker 2: there now three years. So if we roll back ao'
Speaker 2: clock to twenty twenty two, notwithstanding Smith and not with
Speaker 2: standing Brown, because we know exactly what those guys are
Speaker 2: going to do and they're going to be great given
Speaker 2: their opportunities, Well we rolle back to clock. What kind
Speaker 2: of tight end is this? This is a guy that
Speaker 2: when he was coming out, as I recall, they talked
Speaker 2: all about zach Ertz. This is the next coming of
Speaker 2: zach Ertz. He is two forty so he's two forty
Speaker 2: five coming out of school, so he lacked the strength
Speaker 2: to handle the inline tight end position. And that's what
Speaker 2: Granson will do here. But this is a player that
Speaker 2: put together a five catch game last year for sixty
Speaker 2: plush yards in another four catch game when he was
Speaker 2: filling in for Goddard, and I think if you look
Speaker 2: past this player, you're looking past the guy with probably
Speaker 2: exceptional speed. At the tight end position a four to six.
Speaker 2: He stands six foot four, but his wingspan's like six
Speaker 2: to eight. He's like a Michael Jordan wings poster. The
Speaker 2: problem was he was a bit of a body catcher
Speaker 2: at SMU and held him back in the draft.
Speaker 4: But they've now worked with him.
Speaker 2: They taught him how to use his hands catch the
Speaker 2: ball in the you know, with the coverag's pretty lank
Speaker 2: bulke when we get down to tight ends. I sold
Speaker 2: Juwan Johnson going for bids around two hundred dollars in
Speaker 2: free agency this.
Speaker 1: Weekend, higher than that, higher than that.
Speaker 2: Kittle Goddard bowers some confusion about Ingram, although now I
Speaker 2: think he's going to play. All I'm saying is that
Speaker 2: I don't want our drafters to overlook cal Katara, who
Speaker 2: they can probably get at a bargain price. And then
Speaker 2: he goes out and gets five catches on a score,
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, it's a two to three
Speaker 2: hundred dollars bid selection. So I like this player, and okay,
Speaker 2: they're going to split time at tight ends. Well, when
Speaker 2: the Calcatara is on the field, it's more of a
Speaker 2: passing down the snaps that will go to Granson will
Speaker 2: be more of the inline blocking down.
Speaker 4: So that's my spot on that tight end.
Speaker 1: I will say, and you bring up Howers and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about him later. We'll say that Calcata is owned
Speaker 1: in less than one percent of Big Gorilla and FFPC
Speaker 1: main event teams leagues. How do I know that? Fantasymojo
Speaker 1: dot Com at Fantasy Mojo and ex Darren Armani, the
Speaker 1: godfather of the Prosers, is Joe's challenge. He also runs
Speaker 1: Fantasy Mojo dot Com. Anytime we cite tournament ownership on
Speaker 1: this show, it's through Fantasy Mojo, Bucky.
Speaker 4: If you like availability there, you go.
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly. Yeah, let's see what we got here from
Speaker 1: the chat we had. We got Tom Smiths and go
Speaker 1: get Michael Mayer. That'd be excellent for you Bowers players
Speaker 1: out there. I put fifty bids in on Juwan Johnson
Speaker 1: got two shares. That's our buddy Fantasy Sopranos, Steve g
Speaker 1: chiming in on that.
Speaker 4: And that's from a guy that loves to spend money.
Speaker 1: That's true. Yes, it's a guy you.
Speaker 4: Can always count on to pick up the check. Right there.
Speaker 1: Permar is back and he has a question, would you
Speaker 1: start Brenton Strange over Mark Andrews this week, Pharaoh. Mark
Speaker 1: Andrews is at home against the Browns. Brenton Strange is
Speaker 1: at Cincinna. I don't think I would. I get it
Speaker 1: if you want to. I don't think it's a bad play,
Speaker 1: But if it comes down to it, I'm still gonna
Speaker 1: play Andrews over Strange. I don't think likely he's playing
Speaker 1: this week, so I'm gonna go with him.
Speaker 2: Whoever you take, PERMR. I'm just glad to see you
Speaker 2: back in the check. Yes, you've been wondering about you.
Speaker 2: It's hard to put a player like Andrews on your bench,
Speaker 2: but I'm going to possibly lean towards youth. Yeah, we've
Speaker 2: we've seen, you know the Ravens, and both the Ravens
Speaker 2: and Eagles are going to have to do differing things
Speaker 2: to win than they both did in the first first game.
Speaker 1: So I want to get to another guy that was
Speaker 1: going hot and heavy off the waiver wire this week, Pharaoh.
Speaker 1: Patriots wide receiver Kasehawan Booty removed from the injury report
Speaker 1: with a shoulder issue, and he is going to play
Speaker 1: Week two against the Miami Dolphins. He was limited on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: practiced in full on Thursday, practiced in full again today.
Speaker 1: This is a third third year wide receiver who finished
Speaker 1: among the top twenty five receivers in Week one this year,
Speaker 1: carrying over kind of like a good ending to the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four season. Now, whether he's going to do
Speaker 1: this on a weekly basis, I don't know, but that's
Speaker 1: why I put in bids on him and I tried
Speaker 1: to get him this week. This is a good week
Speaker 1: to do it. Week two he gets the Miami Dolphins,
Speaker 1: whose defense is awful, and quite frankly, the worst part
Speaker 1: of that awful defense might be the secondary. So this
Speaker 1: is a prime spot for Kayshawn Booty here. I think
Speaker 1: if you look at what you want to do with
Speaker 1: him this week as far as starting him or not,
Speaker 1: hopefully you don't have to, but I think in a pinch,
Speaker 1: this guy could end up putting up good numbers. Again.
Speaker 1: I know the jury's kind of still out on I
Speaker 1: was listening to the Draft Sharks podcast today and I
Speaker 1: think it was Jared Smola and Shane. He's referencing Shane Haller,
Speaker 1: Matt schoff Wassent referencing Shane Hallum and they were not
Speaker 1: impressed with Booty in week one, but the numbers were
Speaker 1: pretty good, Pharah. If you look at the raw numbers,
Speaker 1: he put up good ones in week one and certainly
Speaker 1: week two. It could continue and maybe past week two
Speaker 1: as well.
Speaker 2: I wonder what they saw that didn't impress them. I
Speaker 2: saw the player making contested catches on the sidelines. I
Speaker 2: saw a very very physical player. I saw a player
Speaker 2: getting off with the release and getting open very quickly
Speaker 2: at a quarterback that seems to have a vibe and
Speaker 2: a relationship with him.
Speaker 4: So there's nothing about Bote that I really don't like.
Speaker 4: And everyone that.
Speaker 2: Waukee how many minutes we've been in the show, thirteen minutes.
Speaker 2: Pittman scored twenty two points this week or twenty points
Speaker 2: this week. I just wanted to get that in there.
Speaker 2: But if you have Pittman who has a matchup situation
Speaker 2: this weekend in his game, you don't want to automatically
Speaker 2: look at your frontline players and say that you might
Speaker 2: not be able to improve your lineup. And if you
Speaker 2: have a player like Butte going against what Walke just
Speaker 2: said about the Miami defense, because everything he said is true, Uh,
Speaker 2: there's a player and that that you should probably consider
Speaker 2: getting in.
Speaker 4: Your line up. In other words, I might start him
Speaker 4: over pit.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And Pittman's gonna get uh Patrick Sartan from from Denver
Speaker 1: this week, so that's probably not ideal. Uh And and
Speaker 1: that would make some sense that you would want to
Speaker 1: get booty booty and excuse me, but now it's booty
Speaker 1: according to John Hanson, going to ask them himself and
Speaker 1: he's like, no, no, it's booty. Speaking of the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots, Mike Reese, who has covered the Patriots for
Speaker 1: ever for ESPN dot Com, believes that the snap distribution
Speaker 1: could be changing this upcoming week. It's it's it's something
Speaker 1: that you know, these beat writers can never come right
Speaker 1: out and say. They have to imply it. They have
Speaker 1: to kind of like dance around it a little bit.
Speaker 1: But you would assume he means that Travon Henderson is
Speaker 1: probably gonna be getting more snaps this week. Does that
Speaker 1: mean more touches? I would think so. Patriots rushed for
Speaker 1: only sixty yards in week one, and Mike Vrabel was
Speaker 1: quoted in his presser this week, we have to evaluate
Speaker 1: everything to make sure we're getting it right based on volume.
Speaker 1: Who's playing who's getting the ball, who's trying to get
Speaker 1: the ball, and obviously Henderson going up against that juicy
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphin's defense. It was awful in week one. Ferrell,
Speaker 1: I think based on how Henderson was moving up the
Speaker 1: draft boards in KFFSC moving up the draft boards at
Speaker 1: the FFPC, I don't think we need to tell people
Speaker 1: this because if you have Henderson on your team, you
Speaker 1: pretty much already gave yourself the green light to start him.
Speaker 1: But now he's like coming up on like must start territory,
Speaker 1: and this could be a massive Henderson week. Maybe could
Speaker 1: me in the end of Ramandre Stevenson as the one
Speaker 1: year one b He might turn into a handcuff after
Speaker 1: week two. I don't like to be hyperbolic, but there's
Speaker 1: an on zero chance of that happening.
Speaker 2: Sixty Splint will continue with snaps boots, but Anderson is
Speaker 2: going to get first and second down. Steve's going to
Speaker 2: get the passing downs, but that doesn't mean Henderson can't
Speaker 2: catch the ball. I like where this player's career is going,
Speaker 2: and I like where this team is going, despite the
Speaker 2: fact they lost to Hubalky in Week one.
Speaker 1: The Patriots, Yeah, the Las Vegas Raiders.
Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. They did lose to the Raiders. Just
Speaker 2: wanted everybody to know that otherwise.
Speaker 1: So, by the way, sixteen minutes into the show, we
Speaker 1: have a Michael Pittman week one stat report and a
Speaker 1: Raiders reference that they.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and we got a handsome guy wearing
Speaker 2: a chain, wearing a beret and a chain.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 4: It's it's fantastic. This is always that team. You can tell.
Speaker 4: We've been off for two weeks. We're coming back strong.
Speaker 1: Yes, well we're coming We're coming back slowly.
Speaker 4: But strong's coming back strong.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, fair enough, I'm with you.
Speaker 4: You're doing a great job.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much. We have one other point I
Speaker 1: want to get to before the twenty time FFPC League
Speaker 1: champ Ray Sagan comes on. Andy Reid said that eat
Speaker 1: you're worthy with the shoulder injury. Has a quote, has
Speaker 1: a quote slim odds of playing against the Eagles on Sunday.
Speaker 1: Nate Taylor had this report for ESPN dot com. Probably
Speaker 1: and did he get listed as doubtful today? I think
Speaker 1: he did. Reid says that Worthy's doing very well. He
Speaker 1: did a little bit of teamwork today on Friday after
Speaker 1: he got in a limited practice the day before. There's
Speaker 1: a possibility that he could play Faraoh. This is goes
Speaker 1: back to the whole thing. I'm rooting for him to
Speaker 1: be inactive because I don't want to feel forced to
Speaker 1: start him in what could be limited STAPs or maybe
Speaker 1: a decoy role. I don't know. I'd rather have the
Speaker 1: option of starting Hollywood Brown in my flex spot this week.
Speaker 1: A guy who got sixteen counting sixteen targets last week
Speaker 1: turn it into ninety nine receiving yards, ten catches. I'm
Speaker 1: more rooting for Worthy to be inactive so I can
Speaker 1: play Hollywood Brown. Problem is that's a four to twenty
Speaker 1: five start. Try to help make us sense of this.
Speaker 1: Make us make sense of this right now? Now, what
Speaker 1: are we supposed to do? Are we playing the waiting
Speaker 1: game with Worthy? Or are we just putting Hollywood Brown
Speaker 1: in there and letting, you know, throwing caution into the win.
Speaker 2: You're putting Hollywood Brown and other players who are active
Speaker 2: because you're not in BI weeks and you've got a
Speaker 2: twenty man roster, and you've got good players.
Speaker 4: On your roster.
Speaker 1: So so you are saying that you are playing Brown here?
Speaker 4: Oh easy?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I guess you know. The other thing too,
Speaker 1: is it might be dependent upon what else you have
Speaker 1: on your roster, Like if you can afford to wait
Speaker 1: until four twenty five, if Worthy is active and you
Speaker 1: could sub in somebody else instead of Brown, then then
Speaker 1: for sure, going you think.
Speaker 4: Long, you think wrong, Bucky, Just go ahead.
Speaker 1: So there you go. That's the long and the short
Speaker 1: of it. Pharaoh thinking short. I'm thinking long. But as
Speaker 1: Pharrell said, paralysis by analysis, think long, think wrong. A
Speaker 1: guy who never thinks wrong. Is this guy that we're
Speaker 1: going to bring in right now, Ladies and gentlemen, winner
Speaker 1: of twenty count them two zero f FPC League championships
Speaker 1: over the course of his high stakes career. He's here
Speaker 1: tonight to discuss his start in week one from the
Speaker 1: f f PC main Event, the Big Grilla, and of
Speaker 1: course the k f f f C Main Event as well.
Speaker 1: You can connect with him on x at Ray Segrin.
Speaker 1: Please welcome onto the program, mister Ray Sagrin. Ray, Welcome
Speaker 1: in man. How are you YEA good to see.
Speaker 4: You guys man. How's it going.
Speaker 1: It's it's going good. It was great seeing you in Louisville.
Speaker 1: Had had a blast drafting it well. I didn't have
Speaker 1: a blast drafting against you there because he took some
Speaker 1: of my players. But that's okay. It's it's always fun
Speaker 1: sitting with you.
Speaker 4: But but we're wearing the best in fantasy that ladies
Speaker 4: and gentlemen. There's a fair chance.
Speaker 5: That the the time fabric continuum, the matrix is going
Speaker 5: to fold over in itself because we have had a
Speaker 5: lot of bulky and feral nowt on here.
Speaker 4: Even we got double it's like the double twins now.
Speaker 1: Shout out Fantasy Sopranos for those T shirts, which were
Speaker 1: a huge hit in Las Vegas as well. The f
Speaker 1: FPC players definitely scooping those up as well as.
Speaker 4: They wear any type of clothing and pull it off.
Speaker 4: That's what makes you the verse. I look at that.
Speaker 5: Thank you, buddy, thank you, Thank you guys for having
Speaker 5: me on. You know, it's great to be a season.
Speaker 4: Let's go.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's it's so good to have you on. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Ray and and anybody who knows you, anybody who knows
Speaker 1: your past, you have led a very interesting life. Whatever
Speaker 1: you want to share, please do whatever you don't want
Speaker 1: to share, that's cool too. But for for the only
Speaker 1: non fantasy football portion of the interview. Interview will lead
Speaker 1: off with what you're doing for a living when you're
Speaker 1: not crushing all these ff.
Speaker 4: Well, thank you for the crushing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're manifesting that for the season ahead.
Speaker 4: I appreciate that, bulky thank you.

Speaker 2: And by the way, Colin Hoffman just checked in a
Speaker 2: apple Tonian their bulky with you, and Colin is our
Speaker 2: week one main.
Speaker 4: Event leader in Kentucky. Right.
Speaker 2: Well, Aaron Rodgers went out through for four touchdowns this weekend.
Speaker 4: I don't think anyone saw it come in. I never
Speaker 4: saw old Aaron Rodgers drafted in any of our drafts.
Speaker 2: But let's don't focus on the rest of the roster
Speaker 2: there in Pittsburgh. The beneficiary of his large s was
Speaker 2: one Calvin Austin. What got you in business with Calvin Austin?
Speaker 2: And did you see a natural connection between the aged
Speaker 2: quarterback and the youthful receiver?
Speaker 4: So a little of both.
Speaker 5: But I got into Calvin Austin business back in my
Speaker 5: dynasty leagues when I saw how good the Steelers scouts
Speaker 5: were at getting those The tenth or eighteenth receiver in
Speaker 5: the draft, a Deontay Johnson and of course Pickings, you know,
Speaker 5: so gobbled up some shares early on, and obviously he
Speaker 5: was injured his rookie year, and then you know when
Speaker 5: I didn't think Rogers was going to blow up this quick.
Speaker 5: But you know, when he came in, the narrative I
Speaker 5: heard was DK was going to be the DeVante Adams
Speaker 5: and that may still shake out to be the case.
Speaker 5: But as a guy who already had a little bit
Speaker 5: of emotional rooting interest for Calvin Austen, I could see
Speaker 5: him this is before the season, kind of having a
Speaker 5: Randall Cobb kind of season potentially, So you know, maybe
Speaker 5: that's his ceiling, which would be a hell of a ceiling.
Speaker 5: You know, ninety grabs, maybe twelve hundred yards, double digit touchdowns,
Speaker 5: that's what I've I got as many shares as I've got,
Speaker 5: That's what I'm rooting for, you know. But maybe the floor,
Speaker 5: I think everybody, I think all the projectors had him
Speaker 5: way too low. I'm looking at thirty five catches for
Speaker 5: five hundred yards on and I mean he's to this start,
Speaker 5: I think we're looking like the minimum. I think the
Speaker 5: floor would be like a Mooney type season from last year.
Speaker 5: Seventy catches, sixty seventy catches nine hundred yards and.
Speaker 2: Sixty seventy catches where you took him. That'll win some games,
Speaker 2: isn't that right?
Speaker 1: Bote? Yeah, I would say so and so, and like listen,
Speaker 1: we don't want to overrate it. It was it was
Speaker 1: one game. Obviously, Rogers was on fire this past week.
Speaker 1: But I will say that in this game where the
Speaker 1: Steelers ended up notching thirty four points, again what I
Speaker 1: what I thought was gonna be a pretty stout Jets defense.
Speaker 1: You had Pat Fryar move held under thirty receiving yards,
Speaker 1: John hu Smith held under twenty receiving yards. I was
Speaker 1: of the opinion that those were the two guys that
Speaker 1: were going to be sharing and along with Jalen Warren
Speaker 1: sharing the number two pass catcher role for Pittsburgh this year.
Speaker 1: I didn't think Calvin Austin was gonna get that involved.
Speaker 1: And yet what does he do in one week seventy
Speaker 1: yards and he gets into the end zone. And if
Speaker 1: that he doesn't have to do that every week to
Speaker 1: hit what you're talking about with the Mooney season, if
Speaker 1: he continues down this road, at least, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: meandering off the road just a little bit here and there.
Speaker 1: I think that that is well within the cards this
Speaker 1: season for Calvin.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and if you're you're rocking him as a flex
Speaker 5: hopefully hopefully you're not counting on it be your one
Speaker 5: or through two, you know, but for depth and come
Speaker 5: the bye.
Speaker 4: Weeks, you know he can win you some games.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And the other guy that I thought was surprising in
Speaker 1: this game too with how much he was involved. Eleven
Speaker 1: carries for Jalen Warren, one carry for Caleb Johnson for
Speaker 1: negative two yards, and then Ainwell got seven carries. Now
Speaker 1: granted he only got nineteen yards out of it, he
Speaker 1: did see four targets. He catches three of them as well.
Speaker 1: This is not a massive stat line by any stretch
Speaker 1: of the imagination, but it's a running back and we're
Speaker 1: always running at hungary and high stakes chances. Ray, is
Speaker 1: that sort of your reasoning on why you want to
Speaker 1: make sure Emil got on your squad.
Speaker 5: So it starts for me with that Arthur Smith offense,
Speaker 5: and it's gonna be a little bit unpredictable, My beloved
Speaker 5: Bjeon Robson. You know that one year, you know, al
Speaker 5: Jier had to vulture, a lot of the carries and
Speaker 5: all that. So coming in this year, there's always a
Speaker 5: little bit of an X factor.
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 5: I think that there's a lot of that going around
Speaker 5: the league, where three or four weeks from now, I
Speaker 5: think a lot of we'll settle in and will have
Speaker 5: a better sense of of what.
Speaker 4: Is reliable on some of this. But at the.
Speaker 5: Price, you know, I've got plenty of leagues where I
Speaker 5: need that kind of lottery ticket at running back, you know,
Speaker 5: and for him, And that was even before you know,
Speaker 5: you saw the the touches come down the way they
Speaker 5: did in that in that first week.
Speaker 4: I like that assessment. You know.
Speaker 2: Last night, Thursday night football rolled around, I was in
Speaker 2: heaven the Green Bay Packers and I get a Packer.
Speaker 4: Question because Balky is obviously you know them, but we
Speaker 4: know when when we Bulky have to recuse himself from.
Speaker 2: Asking not doing any more of this. You know, he
Speaker 2: throws me the Packers question. He wears the Raiders chain.
Speaker 2: So here's but Jordan Love, who I aptly started in
Speaker 2: a couple of games. But I looked at the boys
Speaker 2: in the desert. They had him at two hundred and
Speaker 2: forty passing yards two hundred and forty passing yards was
Speaker 2: their number. He eclipsed that, and he did it impressively
Speaker 2: with some of his receiver corps herting. And we look
Speaker 2: back ray often too, the pros versus Joe's and the
Speaker 2: guests that are coming in, and they want to plant
Speaker 2: their flag on certain players. I'm not necessarily a flag planter,
Speaker 2: but there's no player with more flags sticking out of
Speaker 2: him than Packers tight end Craft And what a great
Speaker 2: contribution he made to the Jordan Love passing game. So,
Speaker 2: with all of this talent around Jordan Love and the
Speaker 2: fact that so much of it at the wide receiver
Speaker 2: position looks to me to be interchangeable, whoever they put
Speaker 2: out there seems to be able to deliver. What what's
Speaker 2: your thought about Jordan Love scoring big Fantasy points through
Speaker 2: the rest of the year.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Some of my favorite builds are when I waited, like
Speaker 5: waited painfully long on quarterback and so I've got a
Speaker 5: few builds where I've got some permutation of Love with.
Speaker 4: Herbert and Lawrence and C. J.
Speaker 5: Stroud, who I think is going to have a nice
Speaker 5: bounce back here once the once the Texans settle in,
Speaker 5: I could be a homer on that it's entirely possible.
Speaker 5: But you know, when it comes to Love, I agree
Speaker 5: with you on the receiver, boy Don Tavian uh uh
Speaker 5: looked like he was going to step up. And again,
Speaker 5: you know, as a Longhorn Homer, the golden boy is
Speaker 5: going to arrive.
Speaker 4: He's going to get it done. He's going to have
Speaker 4: a great season. And I think that that Jaden Reid
Speaker 4: being out, although I understand he could come back this year.
Speaker 4: You know, if that gives Matthew Golden the chance that
Speaker 4: up a little bit. He's definitely got the skills. I
Speaker 4: got to witness that first hand here at college. So
Speaker 4: I'm very bullish on Jordan Love.
Speaker 5: And I would go so far as I am I
Speaker 5: was going to make bold predictions here on a happy hour,
Speaker 5: I will make it make a bold prediction that the
Speaker 5: FFPC main event winner this year will be a quarterback
Speaker 5: by committee involving some of those quarterbacks that I just mentioned.
Speaker 1: I was it's weird ray because I'm normally in that camp.
Speaker 1: And I would say within the last couple of years,
Speaker 1: I did go after some of the elite guys early.
Speaker 1: In fact, this year I think I took Hurts early
Speaker 1: in one, in Burrow early in one. But then I
Speaker 1: did wait and you use the modifier uncomfortable amount of time,
Speaker 1: and it was uncomfortable for me too. But I did
Speaker 1: end up drafting a lot of these late guys. You
Speaker 1: know you mentioned Trevor Lawrence. I obviously love a party.
Speaker 1: I think you can lump in there a little bit
Speaker 1: as well. In fact, I have Rock Purty to thank
Speaker 1: in a lot of Kentucky leagues this week, guys, because
Speaker 1: of his injury, I was forced to play Love on
Speaker 1: Thursday night. I'm very thankful for that.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: So sometimes it works out that way. You just you
Speaker 1: just never know. Sure, my son is in his second
Speaker 1: year of playing fantasy football. He is in a twelve league.
Speaker 1: You only have to start two receivers. Otherwise it's a
Speaker 1: normal standard starting lineup with flexes and so on and
Speaker 1: so forth. We lost George Kittle this week, guys, but
Speaker 1: thankfully there are some tight ends out there. You think
Speaker 1: about the tight ends that got picked up this week
Speaker 1: in the FFPC. You know, Harold Fannin in some leagues,
Speaker 1: Juwan Johnson obviously in a bunch, but we are blessed
Speaker 1: with Hunter Henry out on the waiver wire here and
Speaker 1: Ray mill your brain on this. Should he be in
Speaker 1: starting lineups? Most starting lineups in the FFPC this weekend
Speaker 1: when they travel down to Miami to take on that Dolphins.
Speaker 5: So you the way he asked the question to say most,
Speaker 5: I don't think so, because he's going to be outside
Speaker 5: the top twelve. I think I mean for I mean,
Speaker 5: I'm a I'm a tight end heavy guy in f
Speaker 5: like my best dynasty teams perennially are where I've got
Speaker 5: two premium tight ends.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 5: So, so I was picking up a lot of Tyler
Speaker 5: Warren in the rookie drafts, right so I own a
Speaker 5: lot of Hunter Henry. But I don't think I'm going
Speaker 5: to be starting him much this week. There will be
Speaker 5: a stray league where he might migrate up to the
Speaker 5: second flex, okay, but it won't be many that I'll
Speaker 5: be starting. I mean, I love that he seems to
Speaker 5: be Made's safety valve. We saw a lot of that
Speaker 5: last year. I think that the receiver course is going
Speaker 5: to take a minute to to shake itself out. I
Speaker 5: think Stefan Diggs still has has is gonna make his
Speaker 5: presence known a little bit Kayshawn Boody.
Speaker 4: I don't I don't know. Is that a is that
Speaker 4: a fluke? Is that? Was that a matchup thing? Or
Speaker 4: is that the Is that the new thing? I don't know.
Speaker 5: God, but as far as probably not most lineups this week,
Speaker 5: but uh, but yeah, he's Uh. I'm a truther and
Speaker 5: I've got plenty of it for for bye weeks and
Speaker 5: injuries for sure.
Speaker 2: Deep in the heart of Texas, Ray, you might be
Speaker 2: in position to answer this great question. And this is
Speaker 2: you know, our producer Bryce Peppers. These things in here
Speaker 2: just to confuse me because he's Walky's best friend and
Speaker 2: he's always giving me some stuff that will cause me trouble.
Speaker 4: Missing the eyes of Texas right quick or yellow Rose
Speaker 4: is my personal favorite. The stars at at night are
Speaker 4: big and bright deep in the heart, you.
Speaker 1: Know, is this what they sing at ut games?
Speaker 5: Ray? We know that was that was a little bit.
Speaker 5: That was just a goofy, little Peg. It's really the
Speaker 5: eyes of Texas.
Speaker 2: We're getting goofy with question number six, which may be
Speaker 2: a goofy question. I don't care how fantasy players score points.
Speaker 2: It's just one of the score points. Javonte Williams scored
Speaker 2: points for me this weekend in several leagues. I believe
Speaker 2: he keeps the job. I believe he continues to score points.
Speaker 2: And I believe the young player Jaden Blue, when he
Speaker 2: both comes available, does make a contribution, but not to
Speaker 2: the extent of making Williams a non validated fantasy football player.
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 4: Backfield and can you get Dak going?
Speaker 5: For God's sake, that's gonna have a good enough year
Speaker 5: just on volume, I think. So.
Speaker 4: It's tough to be a recovering Cowboys fan these days.
Speaker 4: It's just tough. It's just tough. But from a purely
Speaker 4: objective fantasy standpoint, and also a.
Speaker 5: Guy who you know, got to watch Jay Blue at Texas,
Speaker 5: I concur with your assessment that it's really probably more
Speaker 5: of a.
Speaker 4: Passing down gadget.
Speaker 5: Maybe he's got a role to play in returns and
Speaker 5: when he when he breaks one open, and with the
Speaker 5: kickoff rules this year, you know I could see that
Speaker 5: happening sooner. I did not understand the healthy scratch. I
Speaker 5: didn't didn't get that this week, but there was a
Speaker 5: little bit of that going around. And then when uh,
Speaker 5: when you saw what shot he said in in the
Speaker 5: in the post.
Speaker 4: Game, or I wasn't the postgame press conference.
Speaker 1: It was during the week.
Speaker 4: Uh, he made it. You know, one of those things
Speaker 4: where it's like Jayden's still got some work to do. Yeah,
Speaker 4: the whole camp.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not entirely bullish on the Cowboys backfield in
Speaker 5: any shape, form or fashion. I mean, I mean, it
Speaker 5: was nice to see Gavante fall forward into the end
Speaker 5: zone a couple of times against an Eagles defense that
Speaker 5: was down a very notable man. I don't I don't
Speaker 5: think we're on the cusp of a ground and pound
Speaker 5: situation in Dallas. So I'm really I like in my
Speaker 5: Dynasty leagues, I did a double dip where I would
Speaker 5: draft one and then go acquire the other. In some
Speaker 5: cases draft both. Don't have much of either one of
Speaker 5: them in my in my insane in the main teams
Speaker 5: or in the big Gorilla got a.
Speaker 1: Couple of questions from YouTube. The number one, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go back up to it and sim and put it
Speaker 1: on the screen here. I think it was Rob Phillips
Speaker 1: had this. Yeah, he wants to know what do you
Speaker 1: guys think about noah fense outlook? He picked him up
Speaker 1: in a couple of leagues. Fan was another guy that
Speaker 1: ended up getting into the end zone week one with
Speaker 1: his new team. By the way, as well, it's tight
Speaker 1: end premium race. We sort of have to talk about it,
Speaker 1: and I will say that it was kind of a
Speaker 1: quiet week for the Bengals overall, like the heavy hitters
Speaker 1: and Chases, the Higgins, you know, so on and so forth.
Speaker 1: But what do you do with Noah Fan? What did
Speaker 1: you do with Noah Fan in your leagues? Did he
Speaker 1: make it on any of your rosters?
Speaker 4: No, I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't own very much of him. Like I say,
Speaker 5: I put a premium on tight End in Kentucky, but
Speaker 5: especially in the FFPC, So.
Speaker 4: I don't own a lot of fans, and.
Speaker 5: I didn't go after a lot of him.
Speaker 4: Just like if you look back last year at Gasiki.
Speaker 5: And when you know gazikis, who's coming to mind for
Speaker 5: me with the Bengals, where you know he would have
Speaker 5: a couple of those eight for seventy eight and a
Speaker 5: touchdown games, but good luck figuring out one in three,
Speaker 5: one and four.
Speaker 4: Which ones it's gonna be right? So ideally I'm looking.
Speaker 5: For for tight ends on my bills as much as
Speaker 5: possible where there's.
Speaker 4: A little more reliable volume. I guess reliable volume from
Speaker 4: rookie Harold fan.
Speaker 2: And there was a commentary earlier about acquiring a Harold
Speaker 2: fan and if you drafted with the old Cleveland Browns
Speaker 2: fan John Anderson out in Las Vegas or in Kentucky.
Speaker 4: You're not gonna have Fannin on the waiver wire.
Speaker 2: I think he is on every one of John's teams,
Speaker 2: and what validet.
Speaker 5: I think he was in my I think he was
Speaker 5: in my in my my Bourbon turn yeah, on Sunday morning,
Speaker 5: and he.
Speaker 4: Was going yeah, yeah, he was going off about him
Speaker 4: and Dela Sampson both.
Speaker 1: Yes, he loves I do want to if we can
Speaker 1: shift it from Cleveland, I want to go to Philadelphia here.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Williams, speaking of Kentucky, posted this he wants to
Speaker 1: get our opinions on the Eagles acquiring Taint Bigsby for
Speaker 1: two picks, a fifth and a sixth rounder just to
Speaker 1: be a special teamer, which was reported in in a
Speaker 1: lot of spots, I should say a lot, but several
Speaker 1: spots will Shipley the they say he's got I think
Speaker 1: it was an oblique or something or like a strained muscle,
Speaker 1: but there are a lot of rumors that he's actually
Speaker 1: dealing with a fractured rib there as well. Ray, I'll
Speaker 1: let you have the floor on this one. I'll just
Speaker 1: say I don't think Howie Roseman, as good as he
Speaker 1: is at coming out ahead in these trades, he doesn't
Speaker 1: strike me as the GM that trades a fifth and
Speaker 1: a sixth round pick strictly for special team's depth. I
Speaker 1: think Bigsby they want him to have a role there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 5: I mean, man, that roster is loaded for sure, and
Speaker 5: you know, obviously is there a role with a healthy Saquon.
Speaker 5: So if I think for me, I don't think I
Speaker 5: have him on any of my Gorilla's or main event teams.
Speaker 5: I don't think I do have him on some dynasty teams.
Speaker 5: And that's sort of that's sort of how I viewed
Speaker 5: that trade was kind of wait and see, I guess,
Speaker 5: But as far as I wouldn't act be going to
Speaker 5: acquire him at this point unless it's just a league
Speaker 5: where I, you know, like I said, I've got some
Speaker 5: leagues where I need some lottery tickets.
Speaker 1: Are running back.
Speaker 5: So so then if that's what your team calls for, Jimmy,
Speaker 5: then go for it.
Speaker 4: Good.
Speaker 1: As a guy who saw aj Dillon up close in
Speaker 1: Green Bay for several years, I can't imagine that he
Speaker 1: is the He's the plan b If Barkley goes down
Speaker 1: like Bigsby behind that offensive line, I think is even
Speaker 1: though Bigsby sort of like a between the tackles banger
Speaker 1: as well, I think that that he'd be the guy
Speaker 1: I'd be looking for. So yeah, maybe injury away type
Speaker 1: guy is the role that he's fulfilling in Philly. But
Speaker 1: while Barkley's healthy, it's your point, Ray probably not gonna
Speaker 1: get on the field a whole lot in a fantasy
Speaker 1: meaningful sense, I think.
Speaker 4: I think that's right.
Speaker 2: And the question I would want to ask is why
Speaker 2: did the team deal Bigsby?
Speaker 4: Not why did they acquire?
Speaker 1: Why are they deal I'll tell you why. I think
Speaker 1: they love the two guys they drafted this year, and
Speaker 1: toot and and Allen and Eat the end was the
Speaker 1: workhorse in Week one, I think it was Liam Cohen
Speaker 1: said like, look, it's going to be difficult for us
Speaker 1: to keep more running backs on this team, and it
Speaker 1: turned out it was too difficult and that's why they
Speaker 1: made the trade before the season started.
Speaker 2: General manager. As the general manager once why did you
Speaker 2: trade that guy?
Speaker 4: And he said, Pharaoh, I got tired of looking at it.
Speaker 4: And I always thought that let's got under go in
Speaker 4: the locker room, I had to look at him. I
Speaker 4: just got tired of it.
Speaker 5: I don't think we can underestimate, you know, with what
Speaker 5: with what they did going to get Travis Hunter, right
Speaker 5: and now we see he's going to be mostly offensive
Speaker 5: player for now anyway, right to me, the sort of
Speaker 5: the leveling factor they're in that backfield is the familiarity
Speaker 5: going back to Clemson, and I think just as long
Speaker 5: as uh, you know, he can get it done on
Speaker 5: the field, then I think that they'll they'll leave at
Speaker 5: t n be the lead dog and let it be
Speaker 5: a workhorse.
Speaker 1: I mean, at least for the first half of the season.
Speaker 1: I would think that would be the case too. Now
Speaker 1: that could change, but I'm with you as of right now. Ray,
Speaker 1: speaking of underestimation, did that FPC players underestimate or at
Speaker 1: least under rate DeAndre Swift this year? A guy who
Speaker 1: was not going in the top twenty running backs, and
Speaker 1: yet he is the only Chicago Bears running back in
Speaker 1: Week one to get a carry. He also sees five
Speaker 1: targets in this game. He ends up getting sixty five
Speaker 1: yards total three receptions, Underwhelming stats. Rochewan Johnson, I know
Speaker 1: was down and it looks like he might be up
Speaker 1: for the Lions game this weekend. And obviously Ben Johnson
Speaker 1: said he wants to get Kyle him the nun guy
Speaker 1: more involved. Sometimes when coaches say that, it's just something
Speaker 1: to say, So I'll bring that up. That could be
Speaker 1: like a red herring here as well. But DeAndre swift
Speaker 1: Man he got everything he could handle on a Bears
Speaker 1: offense that a lot of people were high on.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know the Ben Johnson effect. You know, I
Speaker 5: I drafted a ton of him, uh coming in because
Speaker 5: it felt like a deal whether I was uh.
Speaker 4: In a lot of cases, he is my r B
Speaker 4: two and uh and I feel real good about that. Uh.
Speaker 5: You know, as we get to talk about every long
Speaker 5: horn running back in the league, if we can hit,
Speaker 5: if we could somehow get me to Carolina, talk about
Speaker 5: Jonathan Brooks before we get out of here, I'll hit
Speaker 5: for the cycle. But Roshan Johnson, Okay, lifetime longhorn Roshan Johnson. Uh,
Speaker 5: I feel like if he gets back and gets healthy,
Speaker 5: they could really replicate. I forget what the cute little
Speaker 5: say and they have up in in uh Detroit.
Speaker 4: But he could be the the Montgomery, the David Montgomery role.
Speaker 4: He could be the pounder and and Swift could be
Speaker 4: uh Swift, the swift they you very much there. He'll
Speaker 4: be the lightning in that under the yeah swift light Okay,
Speaker 4: I'm not saying that.
Speaker 5: You know, uh, he may or may not be able
Speaker 5: to rise that same level.
Speaker 4: But but but I'm out of Georgia. He had had
Speaker 4: the gifts and now maybe he's got the system.
Speaker 2: You've got to come with it because it's week two
Speaker 2: and we are expecting nothing but running back, expertise and
Speaker 2: a crystal ball from you. I mean, once again, once again,
Speaker 2: Bryce continued, I mean these these okay, now, Seattle, I
Speaker 2: want Walker to be the guy. I want Charonna to
Speaker 2: play a support role. Am I gonna get what I want?
Speaker 5: It doesn't look like it does. It looks like it
Speaker 5: looks like they flipped rolls. The thing that was the
Speaker 5: most surprising there. I mean, so the carries, the touches,
Speaker 5: the snaps, the touchdown. The thing that blew my mind
Speaker 5: was that Walker was the guy in the passing game.
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, yes, which we know he can do. But
Speaker 1: Sharvion A has demonstrated more of a of a talent
Speaker 1: for for for doing more with his catches than Walker.
Speaker 1: But to your point, three catches four yards for Kenneth Walker,
Speaker 1: he did see that. It was three of his targets.
Speaker 1: He caught all of them, and Charboney did not see
Speaker 1: a target. He did get twelve carries, so he out
Speaker 1: carried him twelve to ten and obviously forty seven yards
Speaker 1: on the ground for Sharboney just twenty for Walker.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but they were harder eared yards in the passing game, b.
Speaker 2: Parao, they counted they Dom Guzzetti knows there's a music
Speaker 2: man on the show.
Speaker 4: He is on fire tonight. Look what Dom's throwing.
Speaker 1: What domones there can coming? Yeah, absolutely no. But I'll
Speaker 1: say this and JJ Zecherson was talking about this on
Speaker 1: his podcast earlier this week. He's like, uh, he's he's not.
Speaker 1: He doesn't believe sharbon A is ahead of Walker right now.
Speaker 1: But guys, when when we looked at how how where
Speaker 1: these guys started off at f FPC drafts at the
Speaker 1: start of drafting season or even in the middle where
Speaker 1: Walker was you know, third fourth round and Sharbona wasn't
Speaker 1: going to like the ninth or tenth. Ye you look
Speaker 1: at it how it ended up towards the end. I'm
Speaker 1: bringing it up right now, just so I'm not misquoting myself,
Speaker 1: but the last two days of drafting in the FFPC
Speaker 1: main event, which was you know, the opening weekend or whatever,
Speaker 1: Charbony got up to the seventh round and Kenneth Walker,
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker actually stayed mostly in the third round. He
Speaker 1: didn't fall to the fourth and a couple of them,
Speaker 1: and that that was only like four rounds of separation
Speaker 1: as opposed to like six or seven what it was
Speaker 1: a couple of months ago. So people were already getting
Speaker 1: on the sharbon A bandwagon and.
Speaker 4: Makes a great makes a great commentary, guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's talking about Walker being dinged up in training camp,
Speaker 1: thinking that it could be worse than it was actually
Speaker 1: led on by Seattle. There's certainly a possibility for that
Speaker 1: as well. You know, we've seen guys that were a
Speaker 1: little you know, and think about Stefan Diggs and how
Speaker 1: fast he started off in training camp. Then he sort
Speaker 1: of started tailing off and he didn't do much in
Speaker 1: week one. AJ Brown, we already talked about a guy
Speaker 1: who was dinged up throughout training camp and he didn't
Speaker 1: do much week one. So it's it's one of those things.
Speaker 1: If we don't know, all we can do is follow
Speaker 1: the trends at this point, and I think the trend
Speaker 1: we're seeing right now that this is much closer to
Speaker 1: a time share than I think anybody who drafted Kenneth
Speaker 1: Walker want wants to admit or believe.
Speaker 5: Sure, and that makes sharbon Ay the great value of
Speaker 5: the draft of that backfield because of where you got
Speaker 5: him right, so you get comparable production four or five
Speaker 5: rounds later. I didn't draft any Kenneth Walker. I have
Speaker 5: a fair amount of Sharbonna, So I'm feeling pretty good
Speaker 5: about that for sure. And I've got I've got the
Speaker 5: handcuff in so many dynasties, which is really frustrating.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 5: Well, in the dynasty, I want I want a pharaoh
Speaker 5: once too. I want one of the two of them
Speaker 5: to be the.
Speaker 4: Bell cow right, But I don't think we're gonna.
Speaker 1: Get that firm well, unless there's an injury, because if
Speaker 1: there's an injury to either one of them, then all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the other ones looking really, really good.
Speaker 1: I don't We were talking about this on the Insider
Speaker 1: Access show last night with George and I can't remember
Speaker 1: his last name, the third or four stringer for Seattle,
Speaker 1: and then I brought up Damian Martinez, the sixth round
Speaker 1: pick that they had there this year. These guys are
Speaker 1: light years as far as talent behind the behind Walker
Speaker 1: and Charbonney. So whoever gets hurt the other one is
Speaker 1: gonna get all he can handle at the table for sure.
Speaker 1: Ray C in the chat right now in YouTube, Whop Sorry,
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott or Justin Fields? This week? Do you think
Speaker 1: Fields could duplicate last week's performance? Ray, I'll let you
Speaker 1: answer this first. I'll just say this, I'm playing Fields
Speaker 1: over Prescott. Do I think he could duplicate what he
Speaker 1: did last week? Yes, I think it's possible. I don't
Speaker 1: think it's likely, given that I believe Fields had his
Speaker 1: best game as a pro last week. That's tough to
Speaker 1: do that two weeks in a row.
Speaker 5: Ray, Yeah, Dak's against the Giants this week, right, and
Speaker 5: I'm going Dak on this one. Yeah, I think we're
Speaker 5: gonna We're gonna see the full I think I think
Speaker 5: Dak's gonna unleash it.
Speaker 4: I think he could be a three or four touchdown game.
Speaker 1: Prescott at home against the Giants.
Speaker 4: Two.
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, Fields is at home against the Bills. Farrell,
Speaker 1: do you have a dog in this fight between Fields
Speaker 1: and Prescott?
Speaker 4: Ram playing for Dallas, Yes, I think.
Speaker 1: Okay, there you go and there you go. Listen George Hulani,
Speaker 1: thank you, Jimmy. Then, yes, that was the other Seattle
Speaker 1: running back I couldn't remember. I do remember these emails.
Speaker 1: I want to read them to you. Ray, Joe and Carlsbad,
Speaker 1: California leads us off. How do I handle brock Bauers
Speaker 1: properly on Monday night this week? Thank you so much, Joe.
Speaker 1: We appreciate the email. Bowers officially not seen at practice
Speaker 1: again today. It is a Monday night game, so technically
Speaker 1: today was the Thursday practice and tomorrow will be the
Speaker 1: Friday practice as it were. When it comes to Bowers,
Speaker 1: I have one dynasty league, and I hope nobody's in
Speaker 1: that league is watching this right now. Where Bowers is
Speaker 1: my only tight end, and I did put in some
Speaker 1: minor bids for both Tyler Conklin and oh who's the
Speaker 1: other guy on Disley from from the Chargers. Remember we
Speaker 1: get to Monday night games this week. Kate Atton was
Speaker 1: going out there in some of my kay leagues. It's
Speaker 1: not a KFF dynasty, so Otton was already taken. But
Speaker 1: you have essentially four teams depicted from Michael merrimanbe out
Speaker 1: there as well. But Ray, if you have Bowers as
Speaker 1: your only tight end, you can't take that zero. What
Speaker 1: are you doing? What would you suggest people to do?
Speaker 1: Or if you have Bowers on a team as your
Speaker 1: only tight end, what are you doing?
Speaker 5: Yes, so you want to go hunting downs because you've
Speaker 5: got three other options. You're looking for which of those
Speaker 5: other tight ends might be available in your league for starters, right?
Speaker 5: And if not, you have the unfortunate task of a
Speaker 5: bird in the hand or waiting to see right. That's
Speaker 5: always the toughest thing to do, right is potentially take
Speaker 5: the goose egg on Monday right. So, as much as
Speaker 5: I hate to say, if it's a if it's a
Speaker 5: top ten or twelve option, I may actually take the
Speaker 5: safety of a healthy starter on Sunday and bench Bowers
Speaker 5: is just crazy as that sounds, that's generally what I
Speaker 5: will do.
Speaker 2: You teased it beautifully. You said another day of practice,
Speaker 2: and that is correct. And if he see the practice
Speaker 2: field tomorrow, he'll play. They've talked about him playing all week.
Speaker 2: And you know Bowers doesn't need to kind of practice
Speaker 2: that the writers of practicing.
Speaker 1: Well, Bowers is also himself is and like I normally
Speaker 1: hate taking injury advice from the player itself because they
Speaker 1: tend to overestimate.
Speaker 4: Oh sure they are.
Speaker 1: And Bowers himself is saying, yeah, we'll see, we'll see.
Speaker 2: No, you don't, Calcutaria, go back to fifty minutes ago.
Speaker 1: The other thing, I'll mention to it. And he I
Speaker 1: didn't look at ownership. In fact, I'm gonna look at
Speaker 1: ownership right now as far as how this guy goes.
Speaker 1: But the Buccaneers are playing. They are playing uh the
Speaker 1: uh Houston era, Yeah, Houston, Texas on Monday night. So
Speaker 1: if you look at and why can I not find
Speaker 1: my ownership tab here? Dalton Schultz right now is owned
Speaker 1: in about half of the of the Big Gorilla and
Speaker 1: Main Event leagues about fifty ownership, so he might be
Speaker 1: out there as well. And you could pick him up.
Speaker 1: Oton is probably taken in pretty much all those leagues.
Speaker 1: But I look at Disney and Conkland too, and then
Speaker 1: that gives you the option to still play the Super
Speaker 1: and Ova Bowers, whereas if you play you know, Calcat
Speaker 1: any of these other guys going on Sunday, you take
Speaker 1: that option away from you Monday night. Maybe ends up
Speaker 1: being the right decision, but I want to I want
Speaker 1: to keep I want to keep that option open as
Speaker 1: long as I can if I have Bowers.
Speaker 5: You know, Conklin Conklin is is a is a neat,
Speaker 5: sneaky sort of play right there, because he's available last week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well didn't I thought? Didn't Disleey have a big
Speaker 1: play in that game too? Or am I am I
Speaker 1: misremembering this?
Speaker 4: Core are a.
Speaker 2: Lot of things you were doing, baky okay? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: copy a busy man.
Speaker 1: Conklind two for fifty on two targets. Disney had one
Speaker 1: catch on one target for eighteen yards. That was a
Speaker 1: good due by the way. Conklind, for what it's worth,
Speaker 1: also at a carry for two yards in that game too. Whatever.
Speaker 1: One more email here for you, Ray. This is from
Speaker 1: Ron and Bladenboro, North Carolina. What's upraided? Does the Jaden
Speaker 1: Reid injury make guys like Matthew Golden, Romeo Dobbs, and
Speaker 1: Dantavian Wicks more startable? That is Ron and Bladen Barrow,
Speaker 1: Bladen Borough, excuse me, North Carolina. This is interesting because
Speaker 1: I think I think ray a lot of us stay
Speaker 1: away from the packers pass catchers because you just never
Speaker 1: know what that box of chocolates it's going to be
Speaker 1: on a week to week basis. But now that you
Speaker 1: take read out of the equation, are you liking on
Speaker 1: of these other packers wide receivers starting they play Cleveland
Speaker 1: next week?
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 5: So Dobbs for sure, for sure, Golden, I think I
Speaker 5: will be rolling the bones on Golden for sure. And
Speaker 5: I already looked and Dantavian Wicks is available everywhere, and
Speaker 5: I'm definitely going to babble up some Dantavian Wicks where
Speaker 5: I need him on the teams that I need him.
Speaker 5: You know, that's always That's always the thing, you know,
Speaker 5: some of the other you know, lottery tickets we talked
Speaker 5: about earlier. It always comes down to whatever particular bill is.
Speaker 5: And to me, that's the fun of having multiple teams,
Speaker 5: not only in the tournaments but in Dynasty as well.
Speaker 5: Is you know, and playing different formats, whether it's uh,
Speaker 5: you know, the the try flex and doing some super flex,
Speaker 5: love love doing that auction in Kentucky, and you know,
Speaker 5: just just being able to build different teams different ways.
Speaker 4: That's probably my favorite part of really getting the hang
Speaker 4: of this high stakes thing.
Speaker 1: The I will say this in regards to the Packers receivers.
Speaker 1: Wix did get four for forty four that game, but
Speaker 1: like three of them were right away. I think on
Speaker 1: that first thy were two or three of them on
Speaker 1: that first drive when or when was still out there.
Speaker 1: And Matthew Goldland two targets, no catches. I know a
Speaker 1: lot of people blame the Jordan Love throw on the
Speaker 1: one to the end zone. So there's that. He did
Speaker 1: get two carries for fifteen yards and Dobbs three for
Speaker 1: twenty eight. He did get in the end zone as well,
Speaker 1: But a lot of these pat these catches were early.
Speaker 1: So it's like once they once Reid got hurt and
Speaker 1: the Packers went up by two touchdowns, you saw a
Speaker 1: lot of Josh Jacobs, you saw Savian Williams, Matthew Golden,
Speaker 1: each getting multiple carries in this game. I don't know
Speaker 1: if we know it's it's it's Ray. It's kind of
Speaker 1: like what you said, like you kind of got to
Speaker 1: go by instinct on this Dobbs. It makes perfect sense
Speaker 1: that Dobbs would be targeted more. It makes perfect sense
Speaker 1: that Dontavian, which would be targeted more. Is the Packers'
Speaker 1: offense gonna do that? Who the heck knows? Maybe Tucker
Speaker 1: Craft and Luke Musgrave combined for like fifteen targets, fifteen targets.
Speaker 1: Anything's possible with this offense going on.
Speaker 4: I would love to see that.
Speaker 5: I would love, love, love to see Musk because Musgrave
Speaker 5: was was the jam until Tucker came along and blew up.
Speaker 5: And uh, you know, if you go back to some
Speaker 5: of those Patriots teams that had.
Speaker 4: Had to dropping.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Packers in the late nineties had Mark Schimura
Speaker 1: and Keith Jackson and when they.
Speaker 4: Want to the president president.
Speaker 1: Absolutely there's precedent. There's also precedent for this final question
Speaker 1: that Farrell is going to ask you something we ask.
Speaker 4: It is with Ray. I don't know how to ask
Speaker 4: this question, but.
Speaker 2: Music, who are you putting on center stage as your
Speaker 2: main act for this year's a musician no one may
Speaker 2: have heard of, or a guy that that no one
Speaker 2: may believe in like you do. And who are you
Speaker 2: kicking out of the band? That's how I want to
Speaker 2: ask nice.
Speaker 4: Okay, so are you asking me about actual music? This
Speaker 4: is a football question.
Speaker 2: Musical analogies front center with the microphone in the spotlight
Speaker 2: and the guy that you would pull over with on
Speaker 2: the bus take a break and the bus would leave
Speaker 2: him there.
Speaker 5: Okay, So in in in tight End Premium, I think uh,
Speaker 5: for me, uh, Tyler Warren is the guy that was
Speaker 5: drafted in such a great position and I think is
Speaker 5: going to yield such rewards and be consistent.
Speaker 4: And we're just getting started.
Speaker 5: So that's probably, uh, that's probably my one guy I'm
Speaker 5: hottest on. I'm also hot on Travon Henderson, another rookie
Speaker 5: that I think is gonna have.
Speaker 4: Some guys are doing so great. You wish you were
Speaker 4: still drafting, don't you. I do, I really do.
Speaker 5: I wish we were all still in Kentucky. Actually, I
Speaker 5: really think Travion Henderson could could have a Jamier Gibbs
Speaker 5: like season if that would be the ceiling. Obviously it
Speaker 5: was not much higher than it could be, but I
Speaker 5: think that there's a real chance that he becomes the
Speaker 5: focal point of that offense.
Speaker 1: To your point, Uh, the Colts were led in targets
Speaker 1: last week by Tyler Warren. He gets nine of them,
Speaker 1: Pittman gets eight, and nobody else had more than three.
Speaker 1: Warren cashed in on seven of those targets for receptions
Speaker 1: for seventy six yards, so by looking good and it
Speaker 1: was a great.
Speaker 4: Value where you were able to get Pittman. You know, Yeah,
Speaker 4: Pittman is the motto of the show.
Speaker 2: And you know, if it wasn't for certain you could
Speaker 2: you could play Pittman over with Jamar Chase and those
Speaker 2: single digit numbers.
Speaker 4: And I mean, god, funky, can you believe single digit? First?
Speaker 4: What is going on?
Speaker 1: I'll say this right now. If it wasn't for Farrell
Speaker 1: Elliott on this program, Michael Pittman would have been like
Speaker 1: a fourteenth round pick.
Speaker 4: Who's your guy?
Speaker 2: I know you hate going negative, but.
Speaker 4: So the Dolphins are just a hot mess. They're just
Speaker 4: a mess, right.
Speaker 5: And so I I have a chan in some dynasties
Speaker 5: and I drafted him in a single, big guerrilla draft
Speaker 5: and then Tyreek I don't know what's going on there,
Speaker 5: So those are those.
Speaker 4: Are second round Tyreek.
Speaker 5: As I towards the as it went on, he was
Speaker 5: slipping into the third round as I recall, But yeah,
Speaker 5: I'm I'm, I'm I don't want to play any any Dolphins.
Speaker 2: I'm with you, Tyreek Kill never never ever consideration. And
Speaker 2: you know, uh, mister Hoyt checks in says Pittman will
Speaker 2: go too for twelve. We've already discussed early on before
Speaker 2: Scott joined the show, and we would be playing other
Speaker 2: players in front of Pitman this weekend because we have
Speaker 2: that opportunity.
Speaker 1: The only person that is not as Farrell Elliott, who
Speaker 1: is contractually obligated to start Michael Pittman in every league
Speaker 1: that he plays in. That's just what it is. Ray.
Speaker 1: Final question, I'm just sure the final question. I know
Speaker 1: Pharol normally asked it. I want to flip it back
Speaker 1: to music. Of all the stars that you have interviewed
Speaker 1: over the years, all the bands, do you have a
Speaker 1: favorite one? Do you have one that sticks out to
Speaker 1: you as like Man that was so much fun?
Speaker 5: Yeah, well there's a bunch so hmm. So I'll tell
Speaker 5: you the big names like Maynard from Tool or James
Speaker 5: Hetfield were actually disappointed. It's hard to meet your heroes
Speaker 5: when that big. I will tell you that the band
Speaker 5: Sublime was recording their much ballyhooed album in Austin, Texas.
Speaker 5: But Paul Leary from The Butthole Surfers when my music
Speaker 5: I was doing a Sunday night radio show where I
Speaker 5: could do whatever I want, is kind of a free
Speaker 5: form new music show, and my music writ calls said Sublime,
Speaker 5: they got that song date Rape, and they're in town
Speaker 5: record and they won't come hang out on the radio.
Speaker 4: Will you let them come up? And uh, I said yeah.
Speaker 5: So they came in and you know, those guys like
Speaker 5: to partakes, so the studio got foggy. But the reason
Speaker 5: why that one stands out, guys, is because obviously Bradley
Speaker 5: died before the album came out, and Sublime became a
Speaker 5: whole cultural phenomenon, and.
Speaker 4: Not many people got to interview them on the radio.
Speaker 5: I mean, the La guys, you know K Rock and
Speaker 5: ninety one X in San Diego Live one oh five.
Speaker 5: I mean, they were a California phenomenon, but it wasn't
Speaker 5: until they came to Austin, to record that album and
Speaker 5: then Bradley unfortunately died that the album sold millions and
Speaker 5: mimes and they become a whole thing. So so I
Speaker 5: got to interview Bradley from Sublime.
Speaker 4: A very cool, very cool did you see the studio
Speaker 4: got Fozzy? What did you say, Foggy? I had to
Speaker 4: do this, really, it's really.
Speaker 1: I will I will say this and we'll leave you
Speaker 1: with this. People can connect with you on X at
Speaker 1: Race Sager, give the give the website once again for
Speaker 1: the veterans.
Speaker 5: Oh for creative ets. Yeah, and better to find me
Speaker 5: on Instagram or Facebook. To be honest with you, I'm
Speaker 5: not on X all that much, but at Race sagern
Speaker 5: at on Instagram or or or uh raceagern dot com
Speaker 5: if you want to want to hook up or whatever.
Speaker 5: But Creative's right there. Yeah and uh yeah, go check
Speaker 5: that out. Those guys are doing great work. And uh
Speaker 5: so with my with my filmmaking stuff, I love to
Speaker 5: get involved with stories that are powerful about world changers,
Speaker 5: like Richard at Creativets.
Speaker 4: But I also like to.
Speaker 5: Make horror films and goofy indie comedy. So that's that's
Speaker 5: really those are the most fun.
Speaker 1: Really, it's one of those rare fields too, where you're
Speaker 1: you know, kind of creatively fulfilling and satisfying yourself, but
Speaker 1: at the same time opening a lot of stuff up
Speaker 1: for other people to enjoy too.
Speaker 4: That's key. Throw up Joe King's quote just for picture day.
Speaker 1: There you go, Joe, Absolutely Joe for the win. Just
Speaker 1: for the audio listeners, he posted that he wore a
Speaker 1: butthole surfer shirt where totally this is YouTube is never
Speaker 1: gonna know that that's fly. He wore a BH surfer
Speaker 1: shirt for picture day at school, but all you saw
Speaker 1: was the BH word on his shirt. And he says
Speaker 1: he peaked in eighth grade. Quite frankly, if you're that
Speaker 1: creative in eighth grade, there's no way you peaked eighth.
Speaker 4: Day, right you just getting started?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Ray, thank you so much for hopping aboard.
Speaker 1: This is this is a blast. We'll have to have
Speaker 1: you on it at some point. Good luck. Uh he's
Speaker 1: not only week two, but in all your k f
Speaker 1: f C, all your f f PC leagues the rest
Speaker 1: of the way.
Speaker 4: Man, appreciate that, fellas. Thanks so much for having me
Speaker 4: tonight at the best time.
Speaker 1: So much fun. That is Ray Sagaran ladies and gentlemen
Speaker 1: hopping board, the twenty time f f PC League champion,
Speaker 1: obviously a lead champion in the k f f f
Speaker 1: C as well, and looking repair himion Dollar Grand Prizes
Speaker 1: in the FFPC this year as well. Farrell, we are
Speaker 1: over time. I want to get into these start sits.
Speaker 1: If you're still cool, we can go rapid fire on this.
Speaker 1: You wanna, We'll go rapid fire. Yeah. Pete and Dallas. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: torn between Jordan Mason and Tyrone Tracy. Who should I
Speaker 1: start this week? If anybody wants to chime in on
Speaker 1: the chat, you could definitely do that with with your
Speaker 1: analysis as well. Tyrone Tracy in Dallas. Maybe Pete's going
Speaker 1: to the game. Tyrone Tracy at Dallas this week. Jordan
Speaker 1: Mason at home against the Falcons. I lean towards Tracy
Speaker 1: in this game because of the pass catching chops. We
Speaker 1: saw Aaron Jones getting the lion's share of the pass
Speaker 1: catching duties for the Viking, So I lean Tracy.
Speaker 4: I lean Jordan Mason. I love the way he runs
Speaker 4: the ball.
Speaker 1: Scott Hoyt chiming in with Mason, Permar chiming in with Mason.
Speaker 1: Don Gazetti, also chiming in with Mason. I'm on my
Speaker 1: own island on this one with Tracy, but they're all saying, Mason,
Speaker 1: let's move on to the next one. Who do we
Speaker 1: got here? This is Ken in Statesboro, Georgia, Keenan Allen
Speaker 1: overw Doonsay on Sunday or vice versa. Thank you, Thank you, Ken.
Speaker 1: We have and it's always helpful. If you put this
Speaker 1: in the email, I'll look it up. If you don't
Speaker 1: that that's cool. I just always appreciate it. In there
Speaker 1: with who they play Roma Dunza in the Motor City
Speaker 1: to take on the Lions, Keenan Allen at your Las
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders.
Speaker 2: Farrell, Yeah, Keenan Allen is the play winning Rome is
Speaker 2: skipping for this.
Speaker 1: I'm actually gonna lean towards Odoonseay in this over Keenan Allen.
Speaker 1: I worry that we saw more of a ceiling type
Speaker 1: game for Justin Herbert in that passing game with Hampton
Speaker 1: and Harris in that backfield. Scott Hoyt saying, o'doons as well.
Speaker 1: I think Allan's fine. I just if I had the
Speaker 1: choice with Odoonsay, I would play him there instead. Moving
Speaker 1: on to George in Dearborn, Michigan. Would you guys start
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz over Cadott and these two guys play each
Speaker 1: other on Monday Night football. I don't think I would.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm I'm just I got a feeling that
Speaker 1: that we saw a big time at GUKA game. We
Speaker 1: did not see a whole lot from autumn, and I
Speaker 1: think there's a bounce back here for him, even against
Speaker 1: that Texans defense. So I would play ot And over Schultz.
Speaker 4: He's Kate Rotten on Monday Night. Go with Dalton Shults.
Speaker 1: Okay, Ferrell's going with Schultz. I can't believe we've disagreed
Speaker 1: on every single one, So every one. Yes, final one,
Speaker 1: Jerry and Peoria Illinois. Which underwhelming Week one quarterback? Should
Speaker 1: I play this weekend? Bo Nicks or Trevor Lawrence? I
Speaker 1: appreciate it, guys, Thank you Jerry, We appreciate you. So
Speaker 1: this weekend, if we look at the quarterback situation, bow
Speaker 1: Nicks is actually going to be in Indianapolis taking on
Speaker 1: the Colts, and you have who's the other one that
Speaker 1: I just mentioned, Trevor Lawrence. Trevor Lawrence is at Cincinnati
Speaker 1: in that going against that awful defense. I play Lawrence here.
Speaker 1: I think he's he just shreds the Bengals and it
Speaker 1: could be a shootout as well.
Speaker 2: You can't go wrong here because you will make a
Speaker 2: If you drafted Nicks, you had much much belief in him,
Speaker 2: and you probably don't have Lawrence on your roster.
Speaker 4: But if you, uh, this is this is.
Speaker 2: Why you drafted Lawrence. Later, go ahead and starting, let's
Speaker 2: agree with one book.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Farrell, you and I agree, but literally everybody is
Speaker 1: disagreeing with us. Scott Hoyt Dome because that he both said. Next,
Speaker 1: per Mar ninety nine said Lawrence never but Jimmy.
Speaker 2: Onemar is already talking about baseball, which means he violated
Speaker 2: one rule of the show.
Speaker 4: He came even post until October.
Speaker 1: He could he could post. He's always welcome to post.
Speaker 1: Weys appreciate his insight. Jimmy Williams is agreeing with us,
Speaker 1: he said Trevor Lawrence, and.
Speaker 4: Jimmy Williams says Trevor Lawrence.
Speaker 2: There's not a lot of guys that knows much about
Speaker 2: fantasy football.
Speaker 1: Well, we appreciate everybody who is chiming in, because if
Speaker 1: you are watching this live on YouTube, Facebook x or whatever,
Speaker 1: or even if you're streaming it later. You know, ball,
Speaker 1: we always appreciate all the facts and opinions that is.
Speaker 2: Now permanently bland from the show. He says, baseball is permanently,
Speaker 2: permanently banned from the show.
Speaker 1: I don't think I I don't think I have it
Speaker 1: in me to minutly banned.
Speaker 4: His name will never be mentioned again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's uh, Farrell will never speak the name per
Speaker 1: mar again. But Permarra, I'm an extraordinarily uh forgiving individual. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's the Midwest, nice and me. So you are always
Speaker 1: welcome to come aboard Scott boyit. If we are watching,
Speaker 1: we have no Friday night life. This is life. This
Speaker 1: is life hanging out to as good as this is
Speaker 1: this listen, you can't go anywhere and find a high
