Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: All systems going clear, what's going on?
- 0:35Speaker 2: Every will welcome to the ship at Nation Week six
- 0:38Speaker 2: Cash game show a little earlier to start this week
- 0:40Speaker 2: on Thursday instead of Friday. I got some commitments lined
- 0:43Speaker 2: up tomorrow afternoon, so making the change. But it will
- 0:46Speaker 2: be the same format as as I always kind of
- 0:49Speaker 2: go through draft games, go through FanDuel, develop that player
- 0:52Speaker 2: pool for cash games, talk through some different scenarios, and
- 0:56Speaker 2: then as I always say, get on over a ship
- 0:58Speaker 2: at Nation dot com, well where'll have cores cash cores
- 1:01Speaker 2: for FanDuel and draft games which update leading up to lock.
- 1:05Speaker 2: But as always joined by my guy title what's going on?
- 1:08Speaker 2: Than any initial thoughts here for a week six cash.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Doing well, just initial thoughts. I always like to look
- 1:15Speaker 3: at the amount of games on the slate. We are
- 1:18Speaker 3: looking at ten games. We have two on Monday, still
- 1:22Speaker 3: London game. I believe it's London on Sunday morning. But
- 1:26Speaker 3: that and then the second thing I like to do
- 1:27Speaker 3: is look at times how many games are in the
- 1:29Speaker 3: afternoon window. We are only down to three in the
- 1:32Speaker 3: afternoon window, and I don't think there will be too
- 1:35Speaker 3: much ownership on them now. I piece here and there,
- 1:38Speaker 3: but the reason I say that is I just don't
- 1:40Speaker 3: think it'll be a like you'll have four or five
- 1:42Speaker 3: spots for late swapping, where if you are like drawing
- 1:45Speaker 3: dat or very thin that there'll be you'll have plenty
- 1:48Speaker 3: of roster spots and plenty of options. As of now,
- 1:51Speaker 3: I'm not seeing that too much, but yeah, things can change.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Injuries wise, we have most of it. Kyler, the big
- 1:56Speaker 3: one stills in practice. The crazy Marvin Harrison pretty much
- 2:00Speaker 3: just came out and said like he's excited to see
- 2:02Speaker 3: what Jacobe can do if he gets the chance, or
- 2:04Speaker 3: I don't know the exact words, but something like, yeah,
- 2:07Speaker 3: I want as a receiver one, I want the backup.
- 2:09Speaker 3: I want to see a guy that can actually sling
- 2:11Speaker 3: the ball and throw it and cambla.
- 2:15Speaker 2: I mean we've been I mean, I guess I've been
- 2:17Speaker 2: shitting on for sure a long time, and I mean
- 2:20Speaker 2: I hate to take the victory lap on it because
- 2:24Speaker 2: I want to see these guys succeed. But he just doesn't.
- 2:27Speaker 2: He's not a winning quarterback in the NFL. Like, yes,
- 2:30Speaker 2: fantasy wise, yes, he can get the job done. He
- 2:33Speaker 2: can score touchdowns on the ground, like he had big games,
- 2:36Speaker 2: but in terms of winning football games or even just
- 2:39Speaker 2: getting wide receivers the football. He's just not very good.
- 2:43Speaker 2: And honestly, like I mean, I guess we can kind
- 2:46Speaker 2: of go into it because it is pretty substantial. Like
- 2:49Speaker 2: Brissette if you were to play, is not the greatest
- 2:54Speaker 2: matchup against Cole too look like a pretty solid team.
- 2:58Speaker 2: But I guess we would just go into that way
- 3:00Speaker 2: ash wise, like would be in play at forty two
- 3:03Speaker 2: hundred if Murray's out.
- 3:05Speaker 3: So let's say, what do you think of projection fourteen?
- 3:07Speaker 3: Are you thinking let's fifteen to five?
- 3:11Speaker 2: I think I think like four. I think, yeah, fourteen,
- 3:14Speaker 2: fourteen point seven five. Let's put that in and see
- 3:18Speaker 2: because I think that's pretty realistic because he can still
- 3:20Speaker 2: move on the ground a little bit.
- 3:22Speaker 3: Yeah, my initial thought is we just don't need it.
- 3:25Speaker 3: A lot of that has to do with like Trevor
- 3:27Speaker 3: Lawrence is five to one. I also think Drake may
- 3:30Speaker 3: is pretty good at five point nine K when we
- 3:32Speaker 3: go throughout these builds. I mean, man, the main thing
- 3:35Speaker 3: is like Puka, he's just such in a tier of
- 3:38Speaker 3: his own when he gets to wide receiver and pretty
- 3:40Speaker 3: much him and McCaffrey at every position where I just
- 3:43Speaker 3: want to jam in Puoka. It's like sort by projection
- 3:46Speaker 3: right there at a receiver. Yeah, I mean what I
- 3:49Speaker 3: want to see five point eight points higher than that.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Separate separator at the position.
- 3:55Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, so I'm just gonna keep playing him.
- 3:58Speaker 3: So when you do that, that already kind of limits
- 4:01Speaker 3: me from going up to spend that quarterback. So like
- 4:04Speaker 3: if I were to spend, I don't even know, Like
- 4:08Speaker 3: I don't even really want to say any names like Baker.
- 4:11Speaker 3: I guess at six six if you even considered.
- 4:13Speaker 2: That a s spend, that's the thing, like the highest Yeah,
- 4:17Speaker 2: the pricing is sixty six hundred is the highest price.
- 4:21Speaker 2: So it's like at that point you're just spending to spend.
- 4:24Speaker 2: You're forced to take money. You mentioned Trevor Lawrence fifty
- 4:29Speaker 2: one hundred, I mean.
- 4:32Speaker 3: Standing out to me, I think Trevor Lawrence and Drake May.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Drake May just with his legs upside, he gets the
- 4:38Speaker 3: Saints in a dome like a very solid matchup right there.
- 4:42Speaker 3: I just I just I see look at him as
- 4:44Speaker 3: the same as like Dak and Baker and Herbert and
- 4:46Speaker 3: stuff up top. I'm fine with, but on a slate
- 4:48Speaker 3: that I think I can save a little money, and
- 4:50Speaker 3: I want to go more middling builds. Right now, I'm
- 4:53Speaker 3: just thinking Lawrence and Drake May and I don't think
- 4:56Speaker 3: I need the like forty two hundred fifty one hundred.
- 4:59Speaker 3: I would feel much better, I think right now if
- 5:00Speaker 3: I can get Lawrence. If I can't, sure, I guess,
- 5:03Speaker 3: but I think it's those two right now.
- 5:05Speaker 2: And that's what projections are showing too. So it's like
- 5:08Speaker 2: eye test and everything else, it's telling us that projections
- 5:11Speaker 2: kind of back it up. So I mean, you're forced
- 5:13Speaker 2: to save here, like like we talked about, you're not spending.
- 5:16Speaker 2: Like there's no spends on the slate. There's not like
- 5:18Speaker 2: there's an eighty five hundred dollars of La Mar Jackson
- 5:21Speaker 2: or anything like that. It's all cheap guys, So you
- 5:23Speaker 2: don't have to make like sacrifices to play a quarterback.
- 5:27Speaker 2: So that conversation is quick. We're gonna we'll just stick
- 5:30Speaker 2: with DraftKings and kind of move through that that way.
- 5:33Speaker 2: I guess. At the running back position, it's Thursday, mid afternoon,
- 5:38Speaker 2: like we're recording this, it's three pm on the East coast,
- 5:42Speaker 2: and as of now, I would assume Hubbard is out
- 5:47Speaker 2: and probably Bucky either. Neither of them have practiced this week.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Rico looked phenomenal. It's a pretty good spot against Dallas.
- 5:55Speaker 2: I mean he's fifty eight hundred and US and Sabers
- 5:59Speaker 2: projections as of now now projected for nineteen and a half. Essentially,
- 6:03Speaker 2: Rashad White looked really good in that starting role. He's
- 6:07Speaker 2: six K against sant Fran. They're projected to score slid
- 6:12Speaker 2: over twenty five real life points sort by value. Those
- 6:17Speaker 2: two are at the top. You have Kiren, what's sort
- 6:20Speaker 2: by price and see if there's any expensive options. We
- 6:23Speaker 2: have Jonathan Taylor, McCaffrey, so we do have options up top.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Looks like it is a pretty loaded position. I'll say,
- 6:30Speaker 2: sorting bad projections. You got McCaffrey Jonathan Taylor up there
- 6:33Speaker 2: as well, so I think you can go ge. Yeah.
- 6:37Speaker 2: I don't know if you consider this like cheap or
- 6:40Speaker 2: bid tier, but six k fifty eight or you can
- 6:42Speaker 2: probably go up top. I mean it looks like again
- 6:44Speaker 2: another week where we have a lot of running back
- 6:46Speaker 2: options for sure.
- 6:48Speaker 3: I mean Ricos the one you just assuming Chupa does
- 6:50Speaker 3: miss I don't know why you would rush him back
- 6:52Speaker 3: I mean, the dude just rushed for two hundred. To
- 6:54Speaker 3: make things even cooler, he gets a revenge narrative, Does
- 6:57Speaker 3: he need a revenge No, I mean to make things
- 6:59Speaker 3: even cool. This Cowboys defense is a JV football team
- 7:03Speaker 3: out there, Like man Rico. He was catching passes too
- 7:06Speaker 3: from Bryce Young. He you look phenomenal, So five point
- 7:09Speaker 3: ak just a stone cold lock. I think if you
- 7:13Speaker 3: are spending, it's really tough between JT and CMC. I mean,
- 7:17Speaker 3: JT's role has been from phenomenal. I think I'm just
- 7:19Speaker 3: gonna keep saying CMC the dudes, he's just such a
- 7:23Speaker 3: cheat code for fantasy with his reception upside. Also, like
- 7:26Speaker 3: we have to, it's worth noting like Party didn't practice
- 7:29Speaker 3: like Ricky Piersall doesn't sound like Juwan. They'll probably be
- 7:33Speaker 3: thin again. Both Mac Jones and Party likes CMC. So
- 7:37Speaker 3: but yeah, like I think they'll be without some skill
- 7:39Speaker 3: position players. If I had to pick one, I think
- 7:42Speaker 3: it's CMCM spending. If you wanted JT, I wouldn't argue
- 7:45Speaker 3: with you. I don't don't see myself spending twice though
- 7:49Speaker 3: at the position. Like if I needed eleven hundred, I
- 7:52Speaker 3: would be good with Josh Jacobs two fourteen point favorites.
- 7:55Speaker 3: The Bengals aren't very good. But you don't need to
- 7:57Speaker 3: do that because if you want, like we're already playing,
- 8:00Speaker 3: we're telling ourselves if Bucky's out, which I think he should, like,
- 8:04Speaker 3: why bring him back and rush him back. Rashad White
- 8:06Speaker 3: six K showed a great role, a very good pass catcher.
- 8:09Speaker 3: He always gets there. It feels like Javonte Williams literally
- 8:14Speaker 3: copy and paste about what a phenomenal role Carolina defense
- 8:17Speaker 3: isn't good. Small favorites on the road like six point
- 8:20Speaker 3: four K, so I'd easily be find just playing those three.
- 8:23Speaker 3: And then Jalen Warren he did practice, so I expect
- 8:26Speaker 3: him to be back. His numbers have been advanced, metrics
- 8:29Speaker 3: have been awesome this year. He did miss that London
- 8:32Speaker 3: game and then yeah, I think it was London, and
- 8:34Speaker 3: then Kenny Gainwell absolutely went off. But I mean, if
- 8:38Speaker 3: Gainwell is doing that, you clearly see the scheme is
- 8:41Speaker 3: there for Jalen Warren. Five point favorites at home there
- 8:44Speaker 3: as well. So that's what I mean. If I spend up,
- 8:47Speaker 3: it's only one guy because I have to play Rico
- 8:50Speaker 3: and then the White. The War and the javante'es. Like
- 8:53Speaker 3: point per dollar, they're the best plays, So I very
- 8:55Speaker 3: well might just play all three of them, or like
- 8:58Speaker 3: just three of the four and not spend it all. Well,
- 9:00Speaker 3: because you already are playing Puka, you're playing Rico, But
- 9:03Speaker 3: if you're spending at running back, you're just picking one
- 9:05Speaker 3: spot since that mid tier in value strong, I think.
- 9:08Speaker 2: I would agree with you with the DMC stuff. Like
- 9:12Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor is in another good spot at home. They're
- 9:15Speaker 2: favored by a touchdown, but like they're more passed to
- 9:19Speaker 2: him busting than CMC. Like CMC's bust potential is like
- 9:24Speaker 2: so low because of the receptions. Like Jonathan Taylor if
- 9:27Speaker 2: he doesn't find the end zone could have a down game,
- 9:31Speaker 2: right like with CMC, like if he he doesn't need
- 9:33Speaker 2: to find the end zone to absolutely go off, which
- 9:36Speaker 2: is insane to say about a running back. So I
- 9:39Speaker 2: definitely agree with you. Wide receiver, we already talked about it,
- 9:43Speaker 2: like Puka just a league of his own that it
- 9:45Speaker 2: just it's very rare in NFL dfs to have like
- 9:49Speaker 2: a slam dunk just safe wide receiver plays. The most
- 9:54Speaker 2: pass catchers just typically are the highest variant stuff in
- 9:58Speaker 2: NFL DFS. Puka defies that. I mean, the guy is
- 10:02Speaker 2: just insane, and it seems like he gets it quick too,
- 10:05Speaker 2: Like he's just boom boom boom, first Drive four for fifty,
- 10:09Speaker 2: and like he's already, you know, more than halfway home
- 10:12Speaker 2: in terms of what you're looking for. So eighty seven hundred,
- 10:15Speaker 2: we already talked about it. You look at the projections,
- 10:17Speaker 2: I mean, he's projected six to seven points higher than everyone.
- 10:21Speaker 3: Else sorting by value.
- 10:24Speaker 2: See anything pops up? You got a love continues to
- 10:27Speaker 2: get targeted a lot fifty one hundred, ever.
- 10:30Speaker 3: Gonna raise this price three weeks in a row.
- 10:33Speaker 2: I think it's just because the Saints suck and they
- 10:35Speaker 2: just don't they don't even think about doing it. But
- 10:38Speaker 2: another eleven targets last week, you know, hasn't fully gotten there.
- 10:42Speaker 2: But for cash games, like a guy that's gonna get
- 10:45Speaker 2: seven to thirteen targets like in that range, like it's
- 10:48Speaker 2: almost a lock that he gets that many. You know,
- 10:51Speaker 2: for cash it definitely makes sense. And then you have
- 10:53Speaker 2: a lot of guys in that range showing up here. Keenan,
- 10:55Speaker 2: Allen McMillan, Pittman, Jacoby Myer at fifty eight hundred trade
- 11:02Speaker 2: talk or Lad McConkie, Stefan Diggs coming off the Monster game,
- 11:07Speaker 2: DK Metcalf looks cheap. There's a lot of guys in
- 11:10Speaker 2: this range, and then JS and is other guy that's
- 11:14Speaker 2: just an absolute spot at seventy six hundred and if
- 11:16Speaker 2: you could get there, I'd be fine with it in cash.
- 11:18Speaker 2: So it looks like, you know, definitely Puka and then
- 11:21Speaker 2: probably at least one guy in that five ish k
- 11:25Speaker 2: range and kind of see what you have left.
- 11:27Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm thinking Puka. Then I'm thinking right now probably Olave,
- 11:31Speaker 3: Like fifty one hundred is just so cheap for someone
- 11:33Speaker 3: with those targets who expected Fantasy points too. Has been phenomenal.
- 11:37Speaker 3: He just hasn't lived up to it yet. He can't
- 11:39Speaker 3: find the box. But a guy that just is getting
- 11:42Speaker 3: that many targets probably playing from behind in a dome,
- 11:45Speaker 3: like right now, if it locked the slate lock today,
- 11:49Speaker 3: I'm playing Olave, I'm playing Puka. Those are two guys
- 11:51Speaker 3: in my core now. After that, it kind of depends
- 11:54Speaker 3: on what you're doing at running back three And like
- 11:56Speaker 3: if you're playing Trevor Lawrence and you're playing three value guy,
- 12:00Speaker 3: you might have a little more money to spend. I
- 12:02Speaker 3: don't know if projections will necessarily agree with this. I
- 12:05Speaker 3: don't know. I'm good playing JSN. I'm also good playing
- 12:07Speaker 3: at BUCA. Chris Godwin didn't practice. There's probably gonna be
- 12:10Speaker 3: no Bucky Irving again. Like this dude is just really
- 12:13Speaker 3: good at football. JSN two at seven to six. If
- 12:16Speaker 3: you can make it work and you go JSN Puoka
- 12:19Speaker 3: and you played like Warren Rico and Javonte like that
- 12:23Speaker 3: seems so strong. JSN is just a monster in full
- 12:26Speaker 3: point PPRS. So it's Puka, It's probably a lave and
- 12:31Speaker 3: then one of those two I'd be good with. But
- 12:32Speaker 3: there's so many options. Wide receiver three, I think is
- 12:34Speaker 3: one of the toughest on the slate. If you want
- 12:36Speaker 3: to go more middling, build tat McMillan against an awful
- 12:40Speaker 3: Dallas team. If there was ever a spot to get right,
- 12:42Speaker 3: this feels like the spot for tet Jolen Waddle at
- 12:45Speaker 3: six to one. I mean, he's still good at football.
- 12:47Speaker 3: Wide receiver one without Tyreek had a great game last week.
- 12:50Speaker 3: I think he's good. You mentioned Stefan Diggs. I think
- 12:53Speaker 3: Quinton Johnson. Yes, it was disappointing last time, but there's
- 12:57Speaker 3: no Amari Hampton now like they're running v Doll and Haskins.
- 13:01Speaker 3: You have to think that the Chargers are going to
- 13:03Speaker 3: go back to being a very past happy team. I
- 13:06Speaker 3: still think Quentin Johnson's the wide receiver. One good price,
- 13:09Speaker 3: I'll throw it to you. I guess right on that
- 13:11Speaker 3: Wattle six to one, TET six k, Quentin Johnson five
- 13:14Speaker 3: to nine, digs five eight, Like what if you want
- 13:18Speaker 3: to say Land or Keenan, they're right there too. But
- 13:20Speaker 3: what do you make of that range?
- 13:21Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.
- 13:22Speaker 3: I probably Oh, it's very tough.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Like something still tells me Wattle like like Tyreek. I mean,
- 13:28Speaker 2: if I had the money, would probably be be him.
- 13:31Speaker 3: I mean, remember Tet probably would be maybe.
- 13:35Speaker 2: I just don't think you can go wrong with like
- 13:37Speaker 2: whatever decision you make. Like obviously I don't think they
- 13:41Speaker 2: all get there, Like one of them went out of
- 13:43Speaker 2: those four you mentioned, probably doesn't have a good game
- 13:45Speaker 2: or maybe two. But like the decision and thought process
- 13:49Speaker 2: going into it, I don't think there's a wrong answer.
- 13:51Speaker 2: I guess is the the the answer. I don't I.
- 13:54Speaker 3: Agree with you, and I do think we're playing three
- 13:57Speaker 3: running backs this week, just with how much of the
- 13:59Speaker 3: value that we have. So I think you're just playing
- 14:02Speaker 3: three and again right now, I think it's Puco lave.
- 14:04Speaker 3: So it really comes down to that last spot. I
- 14:07Speaker 3: will not be like plugging in a wide receiver before
- 14:10Speaker 3: a lot of other positions. That'll be one of the
- 14:12Speaker 3: last spots I come back to, just because if I'm
- 14:14Speaker 3: fine with a seven six JSN and I'm fine with
- 14:17Speaker 3: a five point six or whatever digs whatever. His price
- 14:20Speaker 3: was five points eight k, so if I'm fine with
- 14:23Speaker 3: that many range of outcomes. To be honest, if you
- 14:25Speaker 3: go all the way down, I don't think I want
- 14:27Speaker 3: to do this. I want to avoid it. But like
- 14:30Speaker 3: Jalen Tolbert at three five flooriny, I just don't know
- 14:33Speaker 3: which is going to be the guy this week. But
- 14:36Speaker 3: again I don't think us and then you can.
- 14:39Speaker 2: I mean, if you get everything else you want, like
- 14:40Speaker 2: in cash games, if a guy does nothing, like you're
- 14:43Speaker 2: not dead. So like I don't if there is a
- 14:46Speaker 2: roster construction and that makes sense, like I think it's fine,
- 14:50Speaker 2: but pricing is so soft overall for the most part,
- 14:52Speaker 2: where you know you probably just don't need it, like
- 14:55Speaker 2: you said, yeah, I don't.
- 14:56Speaker 3: I don't think we need it. If there was, though, yeah,
- 14:58Speaker 3: there is options down below, but I I think you're
- 15:00Speaker 3: just you're playing Puka. You're probably playing Olave and you're
- 15:03Speaker 3: living in that low six K high five k, or
- 15:06Speaker 3: you're playing jsenter Buca.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Yeah, tight end position. I currently have it sorted by
- 15:13Speaker 2: value and Hunter Long is popping because Strange is going
- 15:17Speaker 2: to be out for Jacksonville. Twenty five hundred full punt.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Jake Ferguson has been phenomenal this year, I mean, just
- 15:24Speaker 2: an absolute stud. Dak looks to him. He's got touchdown upside,
- 15:28Speaker 2: he's got reception upside fifty three hundred, No CD LAMB
- 15:33Speaker 2: tremble showing up. John Louis Smith, Tyler Warren continues to
- 15:38Speaker 2: be productive at forty nine, got McBride fifty five. You
- 15:43Speaker 2: have some options here, but like the full punts available
- 15:45Speaker 2: at twenty five hundred, if you want it and need it,
- 15:49Speaker 2: Ferguson is fine, and then you got you know, you
- 15:52Speaker 2: have three guys up there, you know, Ferguson, Warren and
- 15:54Speaker 2: McBride that I think are all playable. Plus the full
- 15:58Speaker 2: punt is kind of how I'm seeing this.
- 16:00Speaker 3: I agree with you. Do you have any leans on
- 16:02Speaker 3: McBride for Warren?
- 16:05Speaker 2: Oh, man like freaking Ferguson has just been so steady,
- 16:09Speaker 2: man like, so so steady. No CD, lamb, it's crazy.
- 16:13Speaker 2: But honestly, you know, I think it could be him.
- 16:16Speaker 3: I think that's my lead right now too.
- 16:18Speaker 2: Him.
- 16:18Speaker 3: He's been tight end one in Fantasy points this year.
- 16:20Speaker 3: It's not even close. Still, No CD, a team that
- 16:24Speaker 3: is playing like a bad Carolina team. He's just really
- 16:27Speaker 3: Dak loves him. I mean he's kind of ran back
- 16:29Speaker 3: like he could have a couple.
- 16:30Speaker 2: More touchdowns too.
- 16:31Speaker 3: Jack's missed them multiple times. Yeah, probably in tournaments overweight. Yeah.
- 16:39Speaker 2: And and I got him in like forty to ball
- 16:43Speaker 2: teams as well.
- 16:44Speaker 3: Wow, there you go. You gotta be looking good.
- 16:46Speaker 2: Yeah, so good.
- 16:48Speaker 3: But again, like if you're playing Hunter long, then I
- 16:51Speaker 3: think you're probably playing the CMC up top or you're
- 16:53Speaker 3: playing a jsn and Is as your wide receiver. Two.
- 16:57Speaker 3: And if you're playing like the Digs or Johnston or
- 17:00Speaker 3: Off and you're playing the middling running backs, then you're
- 17:02Speaker 3: playing one of Ferguson, McBride Warren. And honestly, the pricings
- 17:06Speaker 3: are so close it's just like, who do you think
- 17:08Speaker 3: is raw points ahead really top between McBride and like,
- 17:13Speaker 3: I guess what do you want Kyler to play or
- 17:16Speaker 3: do you want Brissette to play for McBride.
- 17:18Speaker 2: I don't even Yeah, I think it'st I just but
- 17:22Speaker 2: I'm super biased. I mean again, I've been shitting on
- 17:24Speaker 2: Kyler forever, but I guess he don't for McBride. Maybe
- 17:28Speaker 2: it's better for Kyler. I guess maybe just because it
- 17:30Speaker 2: seems like he locks in on him, but for like
- 17:32Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison, Yeah, it might be better if it's Brissett.
- 17:36Speaker 2: I just think the overall passing attacks probably better with
- 17:40Speaker 2: Brissette in there over Kyler. Is kind of an initial thought.
- 17:44Speaker 3: I mean, I think you're probably right, like Kyle Man,
- 17:46Speaker 3: Kyler miss McBride on a wide open Steam rout too
- 17:48Speaker 3: for like thirty five last week. So yeah, it's it's
- 17:52Speaker 3: probably again. I don't like right now, I don't even
- 17:54Speaker 3: think we need Long. I would like lean more toward
- 17:57Speaker 3: just playing a FERD McBride Warren because those all at
- 18:00Speaker 3: twenty plus point upside. Like if you play hundred long
- 18:02Speaker 3: and gets you eight points, which is fine, That's what
- 18:05Speaker 3: we haven't projected. At one of those guys gets you
- 18:07Speaker 3: twenty plus, you're playing catchup. More than likely.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Hubbard didn't practice today again. Today is Thursday, Thursday afternoon,
- 18:15Speaker 2: so I think it's pretty safe to say that he's
- 18:17Speaker 2: going to be out, which is the assumption we're kind
- 18:20Speaker 2: of operating under as is defense. Don't need to spend
- 18:25Speaker 2: a ton of time on it. Sort of by value.
- 18:27Speaker 2: The Raiders are obviously showing up as a solid option
- 18:30Speaker 2: at home against the Titans thirty two hundred. The Saints
- 18:34Speaker 2: are showing up here again twenty four, the Browns at
- 18:38Speaker 2: twenty five hundred, and the Steelers. This is all sorted
- 18:41Speaker 2: by value. A lot of times you want to go
- 18:44Speaker 2: as cheap as possible here. I'd be fine playing Saints
- 18:48Speaker 2: Browns if I needed the money, and then if I
- 18:50Speaker 2: had some, i'd be cool with the Raiders. So I
- 18:52Speaker 2: don't know, know nothing standing out. I think last week
- 18:54Speaker 2: we had those cheap defenses that look really good, the
- 18:56Speaker 2: Saints and the Texans. Yeah, this week, I think you
- 19:01Speaker 2: can play those cheap ones, but they're not as solid
- 19:04Speaker 2: as the cheap ones from last week.
- 19:06Speaker 3: One hundred percent agree. If you got the money for
- 19:08Speaker 3: the Raiders, I mean picking on Tennessee will be good
- 19:11Speaker 3: pretty much every single week. I mean, man like, as
- 19:14Speaker 3: long as you're not catching interceptions and fumbling and getting
- 19:16Speaker 3: a touchdown like the other team, you're you're probably fine.
- 19:20Speaker 3: So crazy, ye, no, strongly and a the at all
- 19:24Speaker 3: all right.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Before we flip over to FanDuel, a couple of things
- 19:27Speaker 2: hit the like subscribe, we'd appreciate it, and then we're
- 19:30Speaker 2: running the promos you can see here in the top
- 19:32Speaker 2: five days for nineteen dollars. That code is ship nineteen.
- 19:36Speaker 2: You get access to all our content for five days,
- 19:40Speaker 2: and now's a good time, assuming you're watching this on Thursday,
- 19:43Speaker 2: to get in, because you get nine time slates. You
- 19:47Speaker 2: get the Eagles and Giants tonight, the main slate got
- 19:51Speaker 2: playoff Baseball, got UFC, you got college football. So it's
- 19:54Speaker 2: a good time to get in. That code is shipped nineteen.
- 19:58Speaker 2: Head two fan duels. If it differs in any way,
- 20:02Speaker 2: we'll go to quarterback first. You can always kind of
- 20:05Speaker 2: make the case to spend at quarterback more so on
- 20:08Speaker 2: FanDuel opposed to DraftKings. But as you see, it's the
- 20:12Speaker 2: same thing. There's like not an elite spend. If you're
- 20:14Speaker 2: spending you probably want one of those rushing quarterbacks. And
- 20:17Speaker 2: this looks awful like Herbert Love, Baker, Mayfield, dak As
- 20:22Speaker 2: the most expensive. I wouldn't play those guys. If I
- 20:26Speaker 2: had like the extra salary, I would find an upgrade
- 20:29Speaker 2: like Trevor Lawrence. Just seems to me, like the play
- 20:32Speaker 2: at sixty seven hundred. What is Brissette? He's probably six.
- 20:37Speaker 3: Six K, But yeah, I don't think I think you
- 20:40Speaker 3: find the seven hundred for Tila.
- 20:42Speaker 2: Yeah, I mark this, let me see. I'm assuming he's
- 20:47Speaker 2: six k, right, yeah, six k. It's like seven hundred
- 20:49Speaker 2: more for Lawrence. Looks like he's the play Like I'd
- 20:53Speaker 2: upgrade by defense if I had extra money, Like he
- 20:57Speaker 2: runs a little bit, had the rushing touchdown, bigger gap,
- 21:01Speaker 2: I mean eleven We like may over on DK May
- 21:04Speaker 2: and Trevor Lawns, but it is eight hundred dollars difference
- 21:07Speaker 2: over here. It's eleven hundred. Maybe Daniel Jones at seventy
- 21:11Speaker 2: six in the conversation a little bit, but just seems
- 21:14Speaker 2: like this savings can go a long way with U.
- 21:17Speaker 3: With Trevor Lawrence, Yeah, no, it's probably Trevor Lawrence. But
- 21:22Speaker 3: salary's softer on Fandle than DK, Like you just can't
- 21:25Speaker 3: spend at tight end. There's so many great value running
- 21:28Speaker 3: backs this week that are going to project like they're
- 21:30Speaker 3: just RB ones because of injuries and great roles. We're
- 21:33Speaker 3: playing Puka, but after that there's a mispriced receiver. It's
- 21:36Speaker 3: very similar Fandel to DK, but like it's not a
- 21:41Speaker 3: crazy world where you just have thirteen hundred. I guess
- 21:43Speaker 3: it's like going to come back to the defense, like
- 21:45Speaker 3: if well, the Raiders are pretty cheap at thirty eight,
- 21:48Speaker 3: I think you're more likely to play them here, but
- 21:50Speaker 3: there could be a two B two that seems pretty similar,
- 21:53Speaker 3: and one of them you just like play Herbert or
- 21:55Speaker 3: Baker or Drake or Daniel Jones. And then one of
- 21:58Speaker 3: them is Laurence that I think is the clear best
- 22:01Speaker 3: value point per dollar at sixty seven hundred, but maybe
- 22:04Speaker 3: getting like two and a half more raw points, like
- 22:06Speaker 3: the salary is just that soft where you can do
- 22:08Speaker 3: that this week. But yeah, I think right now it's
- 22:10Speaker 3: probably Lawrence.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Yeah, I just pulled up the defense because you kind
- 22:14Speaker 2: of touched on it. Raiders at thirty eight, Raiders Colts
- 22:18Speaker 2: forty two. I mean, I guess you know, I don't
- 22:21Speaker 2: even know what you'd prefer, Kyler or Bursat at at quarterback,
- 22:24Speaker 2: probably doesn't matter. Forty two they're at home pretty cheap too,
- 22:29Speaker 2: But uh yeah, it looks like it's probably the Raiders.
- 22:32Speaker 2: I mean there's two positions where you're saving a lot
- 22:35Speaker 2: with Lawrence and potentially Raiders D So going into the
- 22:40Speaker 2: skill positions seems like I got a lot of money
- 22:42Speaker 2: to spend, so maybe it is a little bit different.
- 22:46Speaker 2: And some of those pricing is atrocious.
- 22:50Speaker 3: It's really bad on fans. Yeah, how is it going
- 22:52Speaker 3: to go ever? Sixty six?
- 22:53Speaker 2: How do you spend this? How are you going to
- 22:54Speaker 2: spend the trees? I guess is the question? Or do
- 22:57Speaker 2: you even Rico at six six? Way too cheap? Rashad White,
- 23:01Speaker 2: assuming Bucky's out, way way too cheap, like he almost
- 23:05Speaker 2: seems like you almost have to play those guys. Yeah,
- 23:10Speaker 2: sort by projection. Here you got Tayo, so you're probably
- 23:13Speaker 2: playing those two and then one of these guys seven
- 23:17Speaker 2: hundred dollars. McCaffrey's cheaper than Taylor eight chance eighty one
- 23:22Speaker 2: hundred empty and a pretty good spot eight k. Yeah,
- 23:28Speaker 2: assuming assuming BLUCKI is out like I don't see how
- 23:31Speaker 2: you just don't play those guys, and maybe that's what
- 23:33Speaker 2: it is. You play Lawrence, you play the cheap defense.
- 23:36Speaker 2: I don't know if this bill will work out and
- 23:37Speaker 2: you don't, I mean have to say, but if you
- 23:40Speaker 2: play the cheap quarterback, the cheap defense Rico and Rashad White,
- 23:44Speaker 2: you're probably just able to load the wagons for your
- 23:47Speaker 2: RB three and wide receiver.
- 23:49Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you are. Like it's very similar build in
- 23:52Speaker 3: the sense of like we're playing pukon fandle too. There's
- 23:54Speaker 3: a lot of money that you can do it. Rico
- 23:57Speaker 3: at six sixes, I mean just auto locked there. Rashaud
- 24:00Speaker 3: White is really strong at six eight, there's no doubt
- 24:02Speaker 3: about it. But with him being a better DK play
- 24:05Speaker 3: always with the full point instead a half point, and
- 24:08Speaker 3: just being only able to play three running backs. It's
- 24:10Speaker 3: like last week where you can't miss at running back.
- 24:13Speaker 3: So if you have the money for CMC at nine
- 24:15Speaker 3: nine to five, or Jacob's at eight seven or Javante
- 24:19Speaker 3: at seven eight, like, I'm fine with any of those three.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Now you're probably only playing one because you're playing Rico
- 24:25Speaker 3: and then White at six eight, but you also have
- 24:27Speaker 3: Jalen Warren, who's all the way down to he's six
- 24:31Speaker 3: point two k, so that six hundred savings. But Warren
- 24:35Speaker 3: is a phenomenal, phenomenal play like this offense almost revolves
- 24:39Speaker 3: around him. The Browns are tough up front, there's zero
- 24:42Speaker 3: doubt about that. So I do prefer White for six hundred.
- 24:45Speaker 3: I can probably get it, but Warren strong at six
- 24:48Speaker 3: two and again, like what you do at wide receiver
- 24:50Speaker 3: two and three might dictate are you playing White, Rico
- 24:53Speaker 3: and Warren and playing all the gps or are you
- 24:55Speaker 3: picking two of those three Rico being one one of
- 24:58Speaker 3: the other two, and then spending up that running back three.
- 25:01Speaker 3: So very similar decision for DraftKings and FanDuel at running
- 25:04Speaker 3: back at all of them.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Yeah, talked about Puka ninety eight hundred. It looks like
- 25:10Speaker 2: a big price tag for a wide receiver on FanDuel,
- 25:12Speaker 2: but again league of his own. I mean you're looking
- 25:15Speaker 2: almost like when you look at projections, projected an entire
- 25:19Speaker 2: touchdown more than like the next guys five to six
- 25:23Speaker 2: fantasy points.
- 25:23Speaker 3: Have I ever seen that? Since we've started doing our
- 25:26Speaker 3: cash off.
- 25:26Speaker 2: It's always close, man, it's within a couple. I mean,
- 25:29Speaker 2: there's been some separators, but this is like a touchdown
- 25:33Speaker 2: better than the next guy, and it's pretty consistent no
- 25:36Speaker 2: matter where you're looking, whatever site you're using for projections,
- 25:39Speaker 2: it's all going to end up in this range. JSN
- 25:42Speaker 2: is up there though. Nine K. I think, you know,
- 25:44Speaker 2: probably just better DraftKings play for sure, but we might
- 25:48Speaker 2: have all the money in the world. Talked about ABUCA
- 25:51Speaker 2: eighty one hundred Oh okay, gosh, yeah, the price is
- 25:55Speaker 2: bad here, real bad. You got Jakobe Myers at six k.
- 25:59Speaker 2: If rock Bouers doesn't play, which is kind of looking
- 26:02Speaker 2: like he's not gonna like Myers. He didn't have a
- 26:05Speaker 2: big game last week, but six k.
- 26:07Speaker 3: All right, Myers digs Olave digs five nine five nine.
- 26:13Speaker 2: I guess Myers probably, But man man.
- 26:18Speaker 3: I will say at first look, this is definitely not
- 26:20Speaker 3: one of my favorite cash weeks because I think you're
- 26:22Speaker 3: doing a lot of coin flippies one v ones two
- 26:25Speaker 3: v two's picking a receiver in a range that they
- 26:28Speaker 3: all look pretty similar. Like that's what I be forced to.
- 26:34Speaker 2: Spend somewhere you probably don't want to spend, I guess
- 26:37Speaker 2: is what it comes down to. It's like you.
- 26:41Speaker 3: For a tight end you're playing either Fergut seven, Warren
- 26:43Speaker 3: at six eight, or Trey McBride at six four. So
- 26:46Speaker 3: right there, you're already guaranteeing a spend there. Spend some
- 26:49Speaker 3: there you have to, but it's still not even like
- 26:52Speaker 3: a huge spend, still not enough like get the two.
- 26:55Speaker 3: So you're gonna pass up on really good value. I
- 26:57Speaker 3: guess that somewhere, whether it's like shod White and do
- 27:01Speaker 3: you pass up on that? Do you pass up on
- 27:03Speaker 3: these really cheap wide receivers, Myers McMillan, a lave digs
- 27:10Speaker 3: all like, way.
- 27:11Speaker 2: Way too cheap? Do you pass up on that? Uh?
- 27:14Speaker 2: Do you pass up on Trevor Lawrence who's way too
- 27:17Speaker 2: cheap and forced more of a spend at quarterback? Do
- 27:22Speaker 2: you pass on the Raiders and go to like the Steelers?
- 27:26Speaker 2: I don't think you do. That's when it comes down
- 27:30Speaker 2: to maybe yeah, yeah, that's what it's going to come
- 27:36Speaker 2: down to. So it's pretty clear, but I mean it's
- 27:38Speaker 2: really bad price. FanDuel has done a better job. Let's
- 27:41Speaker 2: see with Vanduel. The only spot they do a good job, Okay,
- 27:44Speaker 2: they do a really good job pricing the top end
- 27:46Speaker 2: quarterbacks is Russian quarterbacks they get them up there, they
- 27:49Speaker 2: get the high volume running backs way up there, and
- 27:53Speaker 2: then they get the high volume wide receivers up there.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Then everything else is underpriced. So that's kind of where
- 27:58Speaker 2: we're at with Vanduel. And they do a good job
- 28:01Speaker 2: with the tight ends, good the good tight ends. Everything
- 28:03Speaker 2: else is just way too cheap though.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Yeah, the most obvious great plays are really expensive. But
- 28:08Speaker 3: when you leave off still like waddles a lot, like
- 28:11Speaker 3: receiver ones at arrange that they just shouldn't be, it
- 28:14Speaker 3: changes things. So back to kind of like just the
- 28:16Speaker 3: quarterback we were saying, Lawrence so cheap, So what like
- 28:20Speaker 3: something that you can look at Trevor Lawrence and Stefan
- 28:22Speaker 3: Diggs or no, no, Trevor Lawrence and George Pickens or
- 28:29Speaker 3: Herbert and Stefan Diggs.
- 28:35Speaker 2: I don't know, it seems like the same, you know
- 28:37Speaker 2: what I'm saying. It's like I don't know, it's like
- 28:39Speaker 2: you're just in both spots, like you're just spending to
- 28:43Speaker 2: spend likely yeah, and you gotta do it. So I
- 28:47Speaker 2: don't know, maybe it's like you just play, like find
- 28:50Speaker 2: a way to play. See I guess for me, like
- 28:54Speaker 2: where do we see the biggest difference in like the
- 28:57Speaker 2: top end versus some of these like mid here plays
- 29:01Speaker 2: and maybe it is wide receiver you just overspend for
- 29:05Speaker 2: I don't know who's who's the next guy JS Luca pick, Yeah,
- 29:09Speaker 2: something like that maybe. Or do you find like Jonathan
- 29:14Speaker 2: Taylor and McCaffrey teams that you like. So there's there's
- 29:17Speaker 2: there's some options. I mean it's not great, but yeah,
- 29:21Speaker 2: I guess that's kind of kind of where we're at.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Any uh any anything to add on or final thoughts.
- 29:26Speaker 3: Because I think tight end, like right now, I've probably
- 29:28Speaker 3: would be more likely to take the six hundred savings
- 29:31Speaker 3: with McBride from FERG whereas McBride's two hunder more on DK.
- 29:35Speaker 3: So that's one of those easy natural hatches we're talking.
- 29:37Speaker 3: You can take the lower of the two ferg on DK,
- 29:40Speaker 3: McBride on FANDUL quarterbacks are similar.
- 29:44Speaker 2: In ferguson the volume right now is just insane. So honestly,
- 29:47Speaker 2: probably better suited for DK as is.
- 29:50Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I think you're probably right there. Defense does
- 29:53Speaker 3: right now look pretty strong. Raiders thirty eight hundred with
- 29:56Speaker 3: the mid price three k, you have to spend more
- 29:58Speaker 3: with mid price two K. I believe Raiders was thirty
- 30:01Speaker 3: two on DK, so it's easier to go there. I mean,
- 30:03Speaker 3: if we're already plugging in Pooka, Rico, Raiders and Trey
- 30:08Speaker 3: McBride again, I think you could play furg though, Like
- 30:11Speaker 3: there's a core right there. It's the running back, three,
- 30:14Speaker 3: the receiver two and three quarterback. I think we're all
- 30:18Speaker 3: narrowed down to pretty Maybe we live in a bubble.
- 30:21Speaker 3: Maybe it's just the people watching kind of see it
- 30:22Speaker 3: the same and other people make mistakes. That's why I
- 30:25Speaker 3: had to head's filling random head to heads. It's always
- 30:27Speaker 3: the best in dfs.
- 30:29Speaker 2: Yes, very key, all right, well, yeah, it should get
- 30:33Speaker 2: you on the right path. And then, like I said,
- 30:35Speaker 2: make sure we get over and ship at nation dot com,
- 30:37Speaker 2: where we'll have our cores for fan duel, DraftKings cash
