Speaker 1: Whoo.
Speaker 2: Waiver claims have to be made, and I've got trade
proposals for lying my way. My first round pig turned
out to be a big flop. I don't know which
wide receiver I need to drive. Doctor Roto give me
the news. I really don't know what I should do.
My cornerback keeps getting sacked. I've got a bad case
unfair deceive blues.
Speaker 1: With it is the fastest thirty minutes in major market radio.
We spend that time with Doctor Roto here on on
Sports Talk seven and Doctor Roto, let's get right to it.
We've got some really good football teams, i e. The
Denver Broncos record wise, that have lousy fantasy stars. Beyond
anybody wearing Denver gear. Who else are we concerned about
the place for a good team that doesn't give us
numbers in our fantasy football league.
Speaker 3: That's a really good question. I think Darnell Mooney for example. Right,
you're like, oh, yeah, he's gonna be the Penix is
going to find him. Penix doesn't find him. Trying to
look at other teams here the Bills, Keon Coleman, Yeah,
Josh Allen, this guy's a great second year player. Hasn't
done anything right. So sometimes you want to be looking
at teams that have concentrated touches, like where are they
going exactly like, you want to be able to predict that.
If it's too spread out, it becomes a nightmare. The Broncos.
I mean that game is a nightmare, but in itself.
But you've got Angram, you've got Sutton, you've got Frank Franklin,
you've got Harvey, you've got Dobbins. Good luck figuring out
week to week where it's going to go. So you
really want to concentrate lineups as you can find.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the Sunday slate. The Colts
they rare step back to us their second one. Do
they go to Berlin and fix things against Atlanta this
Sunday morning?
Speaker 3: I think they do. I think Look, last week was
it was kind of predictable. I think we talked about that.
We said it was going to be a pretty close game.
Why because you're talking about a team who everybody thought
couldn't lose and a team that everybody thought couldn't win. Well,
it's the NFL, so it all changes here. I think
the Colts play a much better game the Falcons. Their
defense is good, it's fast, it's not big, right, and
I think the Colts are going to impose their line.
I think they're going to run the ball real well.
I think that the Falcons have some problems on the
back end here. Falcons aren't a bad team, They're much better.
But the Colts, I think Daniel Jones throws for about
two twenty in a touchdown. Taylor goes back for another
one to two touchdowns and one hundred points one hundred yards.
I really like Michael Pittman junior as well.
Speaker 1: Are we back on all the Ravens now that Lamar
Jackson's under center.
Speaker 3: We are back on the Ravens. Okay, So firstly, we
love Lamar. I mean, you get him into all your lineups.
We like Derrick Henry a lot. I don't know if he's,
you know, the greatest start, but I think sixty seventy
yards and a touchdown feels right. Minnesota plays a lot
of his own defense. I think he's a Flowers is
in play. Take a sh if you're desperate, and you
might be. The Bengals are out, the Cowboys are out,
the Chiefs are out. That's a lot of firepower Rashan Bateman.
There's worse guys out there to take a shot on
with for a touchdown. I think he could be in play,
all right.
Speaker 1: The Panthers are sneaky, I mean ridiculously sneaking at five
and four. Ric o'donald had a big week last week.
I know he's been split in time. I didn't use
him last week, got hurt. Now he's questionable for the
game coming up. Are we okay with using either one
of those Panther running backs against the Saints this Sunday?
Speaker 3: I think Rico plays. I think you start him. I
mean mt if he's playing, you start him for surest
against the Saints, we're looking at I don't know, twenty
to twenty five touches, eighty five to ninety five yards
in touchdown. I mean, look what the Saints just They
got rid of Shihed, they got rid of an offensive lineman.
They're done. I mean the defense will try a little bit.
But the Panthers are well coached. They are. They're a
well coached team that doesn't beat itself. McMillan has been terrific.
They love ric o'dowdell, who is better than Truba Hubbard
for that offense, so Rico Dowdell's playable and McMillan's playable.
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you a big picture with
all the trade deadline moves, anybody raise a fantasy flag
in terms of, oh, I like him in a new
spot that should help, whether it's a skill position player
or maybe somebody getting some better work, maybe a defense
gets better. Is there anything that you saw from the
deadline that made you go, Okay, this guy fantasy in
for a fantasy perspective, is now in play.
Speaker 3: Well, look, I think Rashiet Shaheed is in play. Maybe
not this week, but in general, I mean, what was
Seattle missing? They're missing a downfield threat, so he's certainly
in play. I think, Look, the Jets got worse on defense,
so you're gonna want to start every team against them.
Like quin Shawn Judkins is a great start this week,
but the Jets will be better in a couple of
years with all those draft picks. Look A d Mitchell
is also in a good spot. The guy was buried
on the bench in Indianapolis. Now in New York he's
their number two receiver, So I mean, take a look
at a guy like that. Jack Besh did nothing for
the Raiders. That's kind of a mess. I think what
happened in Jacksonville actually hurts Dammy Brown, it hurts Parker Washington,
Chris Jacobe Meyers are going to go in there and
he's going to get some touches right away.
Speaker 1: Rhodo. We know the commanders at three and six have
been hurt by the second year and the injuries with Daniels,
and he's obviously out this week. Are we losing much
on a fantasy perspective or are they just a byproduct
of just not having a good enough defense Again again,
they're gonna to score a bunch of point and they're
gonna try to beat the Lions this Sunday, and.
Speaker 3: They're not going to score a bunch of points right
It's is this a mess? This game has mess written
all over it. Marcus Mariota is in trouble, Deebo Samuel
maybe is their best? Look? You can't really run on
the Lions, so Bill Crosskey Merrit's not a terrific start.
Chris Rodriguez, Jeremy McNichols. It's just bad. I mean really
it's bad. And you know, look, the lines are going
to come in. The lines did not run the ball
very well last week. I think they're going to try
to run the ball this week. I think Gibbs has
a much better week. I think Montgomery has a good week.
Ama Rossain Brown is in a great spot. He was
good last week, he'll be good again this week. I mean,
the Commanders are just overwhelmed here, so this could be
a mess.
Speaker 1: Seahawks are going full time to Jacoby Brissette obviously put
up some decent numbers against the Cowboys this past weekend.
Can they do it back to back road games going
to Seattle this Sunday.
Speaker 3: Said, no Cardinal fan ever, right, Jacoby Brissett is better
he is Kyler. I mean, I've told you about Kyler
Murray in the past. The guy just runs too much,
he takes too many sacks, and the arm angle has
a lot to do with it. So, for example, when
Michael Penix throws a football, it takes his receiver's time
to see the spin because he's a lefty. Well, Kyler's
thrown from a different arm angle than Jacoby Brissett. Kyler's
like five to ten, Jacoby Presett sixty five. So guys
like McBride, they're seeing the ball better. I think McBride
is an outstanding start this week. Marvin Harrison, I don't
like him as a start this week, but I think
he's been playing better with Jacoby Brissett there because Jacoby
Brisett's not afraid to take chances down the field, which
Kyler Murray is. I think the Cardinals are a week
away from getting Trey Benson back, so you're going to
have that de Mercado, You're going to have Bam Knight.
Maybe de Mercado's in play, considering that the Seahawks let
up a lot of passes to guys out out of
the backfield. But Brissett's absolutely in play, and Trey McBride's
a great start, all right.
Speaker 1: I tease. We had Iron Eagle on the show earlier today.
He's going to call the Texans Jaguars, and I said,
you got to get your punter notes ready, because this
feels like to me, the punters are back in play.
Do you see anything sexy from a fantasy perspective in
the Jaguars Houston game Sunday at Energy Stadium.
Speaker 3: Look, if Davis Mills can find Nico Collins, that would
be great, right, I mean, you have a number one
receiver there. I'm not even going to talk about the
Christian kirk A revenge narrative because there's just not enough
going on here. I don't like Woody Marx really, I
don't really like Nick Chubb. I think you're looking at Schultz.
I think you're looking at Nico. I think, so long
as Jacksonville the pass rush doesn't really get in his face,
if Mills has a little time, those two guys could
spike up a little bit. On the other side, Look,
Texans defense has been terrific. I don't think there's a
great week for ETN. We don't even know if Brian
Thomas is expected to play. Jacoby Myers is in a
new place. Who knows how long that's going to take.
And by the way, Trevor Lawrence is not good. Let's
just call it what it is. We said, Kyler Murray's
not good. I'm telling you, Trevor Lawrence is not good.
He's not very accurate. So, Jacoby Myers, you're not going
to really love playing for this guy. So I think
this game feels a lot like last week, A defensive
mess
