  [SPEAKER_00]: What up, everyone, John McSales here.
• 0:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm your host and NFL fancy today's show.
• 0:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: And right now we're doing some tight end ranking for week seven.
• 0:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Ted End remains in my favorite position in fantasy.
• 0:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: I kind of called the secret sauce.
• 0:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's the best way to get that additional edge over your opponent.
• 0:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people like to shock on streams of positions.
• 0:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they're going to be starting, you know, Pat, fire, mouth or dolled and shalt shake Ferguson.
• 0:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to be starting, you know, drop hours towards Kittle.
• 0:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Just quickly the fancy for tight ends.
• 0:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's gotten pretty, pretty standard.
• 0:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you know, power is is climbing.
• 0:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's the tight end for, but honestly, missing for two games.
• 0:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's an absolute monster.
• 0:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like Lee's your tight end one.
• 0:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's a guy I've been big on for, you know, the last couple seasons.
• 0:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess that took the L last season because he had a leaky squad of touchdown, but he's been an absolute monster.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 0:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's got five touchdowns.
• 0:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's great, but with now with JJ McCarthy is in a game as Winston is he going to be able to continue being great because obviously jamis is like us for receiving weapons so.
• 1:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: McCarthy looked great now it's now it's a totally new thing obviously you're so playing like they sat at one but.
• 1:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know he'll be the Titan one in another four or five weeks.
• 1:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Traimic Bride has been fine.
• 1:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's getting tons of receptions, right?
• 1:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: 49 receptions, 7 or anyone else.
• 1:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he's only got three touchdowns with the F-14 to something last year.
• 1:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he's taking a little bit of a hit.
• 1:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kittles ramping up, right?
• 1:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's absolute machine, five touchdowns.
• 1:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's a monster, Monday, and I football.
• 1:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Leportal looks great.
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Warren's struggled.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's still the 10 and six.
• 1:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's mostly default, you know, default kind of ranking.
• 1:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's only got 213 yards, which is absolutely terrible.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like Michael Mayer, the second pet end on the Raiders has 266.
• 1:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but if we're just going to look at it towards the ranking this week, obviously, Bowers is one versus the Rams.
• 1:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's Bowers, he's whatever, you know, he's a monster.
• 1:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kiddo's going to be great, we've ride likely.
• 1:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: These are probably the top four.
• 1:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mustard, the port is right there.
• 2:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, he was getting on that, you know, almost nearly 100% route participation after we like we two week three I thought he'd be better by now, but I guess it's the Matthew Bowling really emerging as his two-per-star Websever along with Christian Watson Crafts has been delegated to the third option whereas he was the overall tight end tube before he got hurt last year The Colson Lovelin finally showed signs of life, so he's the accurate pretty much a must start, you know, with Caleb back that bears off as looking great.
• 2:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: The paths defenses is kind of vulnerable
• 2:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, I'm not starting lovelin' over like the Leporto, you know, kiddo any of these guys, but if you're outside that or Dallas, Goddard, I'd probably start over lovelin' because Dallas, a Tana Ricky look okay, but it's just Dallas.
• 2:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's gonna look great for Dallas, so like, Goddard, I absolutely love Goddard.
• 2:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'd be starting over almost anybody this week, you know, other than magas spread the top four.
• 2:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kelsey's kind of falling off.
• 3:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Seattle is a little vulnerable to tight ends.
• 3:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kelsey's a guy I'm out looking at the place was he had Seattle at his age.
• 3:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's really many matchup dependent or at home, maybe in a night game.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Higbee turns first since it's going to be more of a ramp up.
• 3:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: We saw Devante Adams out.
• 3:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: Higbee's a great, great play this week.
• 3:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, right.
• 3:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: They love their three tight end sets.
• 3:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he can easily be even that second option.
• 3:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, next to Puka.
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, he's look really good.
• 3:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, heat.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe he's get eight targets.
• 3:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: Bring home six.
• 3:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
• 3:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Last week he's four for four, we're only 22 yards.
• 3:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: But we'll four that he had 83, 67, 62.
• 3:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I think he's a guy.
• 3:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Love.
• 3:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Uh, join Johnson started really hot.
• 3:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's fallen off.
• 3:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: He had zero catches last week.
• 3:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's pretty bad.
• 3:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, good match against the giants, right?
• 3:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: That whole Saints passing offensive
• 3:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: So Jones is a guy I probably stashed with a bench and wait, doesn't see the scenes again moving again.
• 3:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Carol Fanon is probably the best maybe soft more tight on right now.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm considering how the lovelin struggle more in struggle.
• 4:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he's got one catch in each of the last two games.
• 4:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, the Browns offense is just is a nightmare.
• 4:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think conception is going to return this week, which will take some targets out of him.
• 4:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: But fans still like the matchups, not bad.
• 4:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Instantency, right?
• 4:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: They should be able to put up points.
• 4:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hawkins is interesting, right?
• 4:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: He had that.
• 4:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Absolute monsters, the tight end one two weeks ago, and then he had one calf for seven yards, right?
• 4:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: So.
• 4:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Coming off the buy in the is a team you get throw on right pets obviously is a nightmare He's look better though, right?
• 4:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's got five grabs each of the last two games and three-cush fams But I didn't realize he scored two touchdowns last week.
• 4:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's unbelievable.
• 4:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: So pits I guess you ride when he's hot Obviously Niners are elite rush defense elite team overall, but Atlanta should be throwing in that game so if you rode if you were able to ride kids last couple weeks congrats for he did nothing
• 4:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: The group of guys, I was, you know, the like tight ends, right?
• 5:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, Shulps Ferguson, I guess Andrews and then FireMouth.
• 5:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, you have a guy who's playing the matchup, right?
• 5:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: You got Henry playing the Bears.
• 5:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's a nice spot.
• 5:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: FireMouth at the Saints, especially with Pittsburgh's Weber Seabers banged up, Robyn Wilson and Michael Pittman.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Steve Obernard, look great.
• 5:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you know far enough is a guy I'd be I would I would mind streaming nice match up only a two for 11 but he had he had three touchdowns combined in the two game before that.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: We go even further down because second he's a guy I always had a leg big game right there playing Baltimore he scored three or four he is only reception last last game was attached to him.
• 5:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's not a bad spot here, but, you know, Kate Otten at Baker Place.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe Caroline and that could be a sneaky shootout.
• 5:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jake Ferguson, obviously, I don't, you know, he's just done really nothing all season.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: He gets a couple of grabs for, you know, less than 20 errands.
• 5:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's probably a little further down.
• 6:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mark Andrews is a guy who's one touchdown and one cuts us week.
• 6:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, the thing is since he's been historically terrible versus tight-empty last couple of years.
• 6:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe he's a guy you shoehorned in over like John Johnson or maybe Fanon, or I do you just play in the matchup.
• 6:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Shelts is a guy who's massively getting downgraded because he just keeps getting weapons back, right?
• 6:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: He hasn't scored this season, even though he had this 12 matches a week too.
• 6:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's like obviously our top guys are great craft for playing because Detroit, right?
• 6:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's a shootout.
• 6:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Love when we're playing after, you know, you finally what scored last week.
• 6:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was the, these are tight end four.
• 6:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: So hopefully he built some momentum.
• 6:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: God, we love the notes out of that.
• 6:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: The guys I'm trying to shoehorn in or fit.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Mark Andrews made me from the matchup.
• 6:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Lamar is probably not going to play.
• 6:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not great.
• 6:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kits since he's hot, but obviously that nine-minute matchup is is
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's the general white guys, right?
• 6:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: There's Henry Verschicago, so see the Romeo dobs out, easy ground struggling.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe Greg May turns to turns to his tight end, right?
• 7:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's going back to back games.
• 7:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's had at least 40 yards in three straight.
• 7:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Henry's pretty seeking option.
• 7:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he's a guy I would definitely move up into the top 10.
• 7:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Michael Mayer, I guess you got it.
• 7:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: He always got it.
• 7:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: they get about him right he's at 80 plus and two last three obviously powers is going to eat that ramp is match up isn't maybe sneaky good because they got those great corners are really good against the run game could be a past first game you know playing catch up so
• 7:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: But here's a guy like more than, you know, Hawkinson, Fanon, Julian Johnson.
• 7:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Take these a guy.
• 7:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really shoe-warning to that close to the top eight that almost must start.
• 7:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, and then go with down is just, you know, can't need to be so fun, you know, fun guy to, he had that crazy thing, you know, he's a time and four and week three.
• 7:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he's had zero catches two catches one catch since then, especially if they get 80 Mitchell back with Elmar Cooper back.
• 8:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Steve's a guy, I'm probably in to ease more just of a stash.
• 8:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let's see here, anyone else that we like?
• 8:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: That might be Seaky Seaky Seaky Seaky.
• 8:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, let's just see, Cal Seaky.
• 8:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: He was with Titan 18, Titan 33, and in 11, he's got two touchdowns on the season.
• 8:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's just, I mean, I guess with her she writes out, you can make an argument, because the way Seattle plays defense they do trying to, they do cover the deep on the sidelines and kind of giving the middle, so maybe maybe Kelsey gets six for 40 or something and a PPR league that could be decent.
• 8:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: But,
• 8:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: What would I be doing with tight end right now?
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would if we're doing by lows right close to lovelin after that game baby you you know well maybe he starts heating up last season he did nothing beginning and then he did up late we haven't really seen a Chicago offense cooking outside a week one and last week right so if they're gonna be putting up 3035 a game lovelin should be a key part of that because you know Rob as I'm a great burden is emerging the clea framing experiment seems to be over
• 9:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: and then Higby, Higby for short-term fix.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: He might even be on the wire right till Terence Ferguson.
• 9:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: I said he's going to take a few weeks to ramp out.
• 9:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: I obviously would never trust Pits, but maybe Trimbe Bride, kind of a by-low, right?
• 9:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's, you know, he's had seven grabs in every game, which is nice, but he's just not scoring, right?
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's been outside the top 12 and two of the three last games.
• 9:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: and the schedule is, you know, pretty nice this week down here.
• 9:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can throw on and Dallas next week.
• 9:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe even provide to guy, am I trying to shoot, you know, throw the crown jewels at just it's again a must win game for that next week versus Dallas because he could go, you know, two touchdowns for one 50 sets just a tenant ranking.
• 9:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: So check back for a wide receiver rankings.
• 9:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then that'll be it for a week.
• 9:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: So.
