  Ball system's gone clear the left. What's up, everybody? Big Marley three
• 0:39
  from ship at Nation here to break down the week seventeen NFL Afternoon slate for
• 0:44
  you guys. Before we get into that, I want to mention that our
• 0:47
  friends over at Drafters are back in action with Playoff Best Ball. They have
• 0:53
  a three dollar contest and a twenty dollars contest available to draft in right now.
• 0:59
  And that big twenty dollar contest is a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
• 1:02
  prize pool with fifty thousand dollars going to first place. If you sign up
• 1:07
  with promo code ship It, they will match your first deposit up to one
• 1:11
  hundred dollars. And we will be doing a couple live drafts in the next
• 1:15
  two weeks or so, so I hope to see a few of you in
• 1:17
  there. All right, let's get into this three game afternoon slate. The
• 1:23
  first game is the Seahawks as three and a half point home favorites over the
• 1:30
  Steelers, and we have a forty two point total in this one. I'm
• 1:36
  fine stacking up either of these teams or just using a piece or two from
• 1:41
  each side, but this is a game that I have some interest in Mason
• 1:45
  Rudolph had twenty Draft Kings points last week and he is only five K,
• 1:49
  so if I need to pay down, then I'm fine going with him.
• 1:53
  If that is the case, then I'm looking to stack him with at least
• 1:57
  one, if not both, of Deontay Johnson or George Pickens. Pickens will
• 2:05
  probably be the higher owned of the two though, after breaking the late last
• 2:08
  week with thirty eight and a half DraftKings points, and then I'm also fine
• 2:14
  tossing in Pat Fryermuth into those Rudolph stacks as well, and he should go
• 2:19
  a little bit overlooked after putting up zero last week. And really, those
• 2:23
  are the only three pass catchers that I have any interest in rostering on the
• 2:28
  Steeler side. Aside from them, it is just the running backs. I
• 2:32
  prefer Jalen Warren at fifty five hundred dollars, but if I need the extra
• 2:38
  five hundred that I'm fine moving down two Najie Harris at five K, and
• 2:43
  then I'm comparing the Steelers DST with either of those running backs. So those
• 2:52
  are all the Steelers plays that I will have on my playerpool this week.
• 2:55
  On the Steeler side, Gino Smith will be back again, and I do
• 3:00
  prefer the Geno side if I am stacking up this game. If I am
• 3:05
  using Geno, then I want him stacked with probably two of his wide receivers.
• 3:10
  DK Metcalf would be my favorite of the three if I can't afford him,
• 3:15
  But Tyler Lockett is fourteen hundred dollars cheaper and he had eleven targets last
• 3:20
  week. And then JSN is one of my favorite punts on the slate with
• 3:23
  or without Gino. I think forty eight hundred dollars is a solid price,
• 3:28
  and he's been getting more and more involved in the offense. And then Kenneth
• 3:31
  Walker is questionable, but if he does end up playing, then he will
• 3:36
  probably be one of my favorite running back plays on the slate and I'm fine
• 3:39
  using him with or without Gino. If he does not play, then that
• 3:45
  is gonna move Zach Charbonnay too closer to a core play at forty six hundred
• 3:51
  dollars, and I would expect him to get most, if not all,
• 3:53
  the running back work on the team. And then I don't see me paying
• 3:57
  up for the Seahawks, So that's probably it for this game. The next
• 4:03
  game is the Bengals at the Chiefs. The Chiefs are seven and a half
• 4:09
  point favorites and they have the highest team total at twenty six. I expect
• 4:15
  the Chiefs to be the chalk at basically every position on this slate, so
• 4:19
  that would be the reason to get away from them if you're looking for one.
• 4:24
  But Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback on the slate. He is seventy
• 4:29
  five hundred dollars this week, and if I am using him, then I
• 4:31
  am locking in one or both of Rashi Rice at wide receiver and Travis Kelce
• 4:38
  at tight end. I expect that to be a popular three man stack,
• 4:42
  but it's the best three man stack on this board. And then we are
• 4:46
  waiting on the running back news in this one, with Isaiah Pacheco needing to
• 4:51
  pass concussion protocols. If he plays, then he will probably end up being
• 4:57
  one of my favorite running back plays on the board. If he sits,
• 5:00
  then that is going to move Clyde Edwards Hilaire and too closer to a lock
• 5:04
  button play for me at fifty three hundred dollars. And I would like him
• 5:08
  with or without Mahomes, and that's probably it. But if I am looking
• 5:13
  to pay down for one of these three K type plays just to fit Mahomes
• 5:17
  and Kelsey into my roster. That I'm fine with Richie James Junior or McCole
• 5:25
  Hardman. They're both three K minimum and Hardman was just activated to the fifty
• 5:30
  three man active roster today, So those are the offensive plays I'm cool with.
• 5:35
  And then the Chiefs DST is very in play as well, and I
• 5:40
  mean I definitely like them because I don't care for much on the Bengals side.
• 5:45
  Jamar Chase is questionable, but that's the news I am waiting for to
• 5:48
  roster these Bengals guys. If he does play, then I'm fine using Jake
• 5:53
  Browning at quarterback and I would stack him up with Chase. If Chase ends
• 5:59
  up sitting, then I think the only Bengals player that I would even have
• 6:02
  any interest in rostering would be t Higgins. I do like Higgins with or
• 6:06
  without Chase on the field, though, and he has fifty DraftKings points the
• 6:11
  last two weeks with Browning at quarterback, so it's really Higgins or past for
• 6:15
  me. I guess you could go to Joe Mixon if you want to,
• 6:17
  but I would rather pay for the running backs priced around him instead, and
• 6:21
  I might even prefer going down to Chase Brown and a losing game script at
• 6:27
  low ownership over Joe Mixon. So those are the guys I am looking at
• 6:32
  on the Bengals side, and then the last game is the one that I
• 6:38
  have the least interested in. The Broncos are three and a half point home
• 6:41
  favorites and the Chargers have the lowest team total on the slate at seventeen.
• 6:47
  We have Easton Sticks starting again for the Chargers at quarterback, but Keenan Allen
• 6:51
  and Josh Palmer are both out this week, so I'm not gonna be using
• 6:57
  any stick on this slate. And the only charge that I plan on making
• 7:01
  my playerpool are going to be Austin Eckler at sixty seven hundred dollars, and
• 7:06
  this is the cheapest he has been in years. He doesn't really look like
• 7:10
  the same guy he was in the past couple of years, but sixty seven
• 7:13
  hundred dollars should get a lot of work on the ground and should also be
• 7:15
  one of the top pass catchers in this week's game as well. So I
• 7:19
  like Eckler running back, and then Gerald Everett at tight end should be the
• 7:24
  lead pass catcher in a great matchup, and he has had eight targets in
• 7:29
  each of the last three games. I don't really have much more interest in
• 7:33
  the Bronco side either, with Jarrett Stidham at quarterback and Courtland Sutton being out
• 7:41
  this week, so that really just leads me to Javonte Williams at running back
• 7:46
  and then Jerry Judy at wide receiver, but he is questionable this week with
• 7:50
  an illness. And I'm also fine punting with Marvin Mims Junior at thirty five
• 7:56
  hundred dollars, especially if Judy sits and Mims plays, but Mams does have
• 8:01
  a Q tech as well, so we will have to keep an eye on
• 8:03
  that. Other than those guys, it's just the defenses from this game.
• 8:07
  I'm fine with the Broncos or the Chargers, but I do expect the Broncos
• 8:11
  to be much more popular, so maybe the Chargers are a good pivot and
• 8:15
  we can stack up an Echler with the Chargers defense instead. But that's about
• 8:20
  it for me on this slate. My full player pool is posted over at
• 8:24
