[SPEAKER_00]: Good morning friends and enemies and today's video we are going game by game through every single game all 16 of them for the week Once late and we are throwing every single fantasy relevant wider receiver into a bucket of sits of starts of mustards of Dubflexes of risky flexes you name it everything in between we did the same exact thing for running back to yesterday We will link that in the show notes if you want to check it out
0:23
[SPEAKER_00]: If you want to skip all the nonsense, you can go get our rankings right now on bdge.co.
0:28
[SPEAKER_00]: That's our membership.
0:29
[SPEAKER_00]: You also get access to our private SIT start Q&A every single Saturday.
0:33
[SPEAKER_00]: First one coming up this Saturday.
0:34
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
0:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's hop into the vid.
0:36
[SPEAKER_00]: If you watched yesterday's video, you saw our new ranking system a lot of y'all.
0:39
[SPEAKER_00]: loved it if you are watching on your computer or the TV for those y'all on mobile.
0:44
[SPEAKER_00]: This was a little bit tough for you guys to see as I heard from the comments I work you know pretty late last night trying to improve the readability for y'all and that will continue to get better and better as the year progresses
0:54
[SPEAKER_00]: But even if you are a mobile, I promise the information that I spew out of my face whole is what matters for you.
1:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So, same as yesterday, you know, we'll go through each matchup starting with Thursday night football.
1:05
[SPEAKER_00]: And we will give you the weather reports.
1:06
[SPEAKER_00]: We will give you the practice and injury reports as they are updated to this minute.
1:11
[SPEAKER_00]: We are starting with Dallas and Philly, the game tonight.
1:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Thursday night football kicks things off.
1:16
[SPEAKER_00]: So before we rank any of the players, let's check the practice reports for the game.
1:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Perry on Winfrey on the Cowboys defensive line.
1:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Otherwise, Trayvon Diggs looks like he's a full go and he will be participating, which is a big boost to the Cowboys secondary.
1:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of the Cowboys secondary, we do expect AJ Brown to fry a ass.
1:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's going right into the must start tier up there.
1:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Good matchup.
1:38
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not overthinking that one.
1:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Devante Smith, I'm actually going to throw into the dub flex tier, and the reason I'm doing that is one, we see a little bit of a weather concern here.
1:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Some rain looks fairly likely during the game.
1:50
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got some wind, 10 miles per hour.
1:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Devante Smith typically plays the secondary piece to AJ Brown, of course one, AJ Brown is on the field.
1:57
[SPEAKER_00]: You can also see that the cowboys are eight and a half point underdog.
2:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So the game script is not going to go in the way of the Philly pass catchers for the most part.
2:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Devante Smith still will probably have a pretty strong line here, 55 and a half receipts.
2:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also going to give you two of my favorite plays for the week at some point during this video.
2:14
[SPEAKER_00]: You want to sweat it out with me during week one, but Devon A Smith is not one of them.
2:18
[SPEAKER_00]: However, yeah, the lines are okay for him 55 and a half compared to AJ Brown's 70 and a half any better any time.
2:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Touch down line.
2:25
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's going to go to the dub flex still feel good about him because the match was good, but games crit might get away.
2:29
[SPEAKER_00]: On the flip side, of course, you know, CD lamps are first round pick, despite the matchups being brutal here, you know, eagles 26 in fantasy points allowed to the wide receiver position 31 and EPA per pass and 30 second in points for him allowed to oppose and offences.
2:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's just a brutal matchup anyway.
2:45
[SPEAKER_00]: You want to flip the script there, but CD lamps are first round pick.
2:48
[SPEAKER_00]: You're starting to every single week.
2:49
[SPEAKER_00]: George Pickins is where things get.
2:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, a little bit shaky to be honest with you, he's going to probably land in the Dubflex category next to the Vante Smith, you know, again, the matchup is tough.
2:57
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the first time we're getting to see Dak CD George Pickins on the field together, but 47 and a half game total should be one where both teams are scoring points.
3:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, Dallas is eight and a half point underdogs.
3:09
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to have to throw the ball.
3:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't see them having any success on the ground.
3:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Jemontta Williams, trying to get past Jalen Carter is going to be a fucking joke out there.
3:15
[SPEAKER_00]: And George Piggins actually has a slightly higher line than Devontley Smith, those yardage wise.
3:20
[SPEAKER_00]: So I could see him getting seven or eight targets and it's almost like a damn career high for the way that he operated out in that Pittsburgh run first offense.
3:28
[SPEAKER_00]: So Piggins is going to go into the Dubflex category.
3:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'll be honest, man, he's he's teetering between Dubflex and shaky flex.
3:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think there are probably a decent amount of options that would be better than him just because the matchup is a little bit crazy.
3:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Anything could happen on Thursday night football.
3:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's move to the Friday night matchup in Brazil.
3:45
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got Kansas City at the Los Angeles Chargers.
3:48
[SPEAKER_00]: The chiefs are a three point favorite in this one.
3:52
[SPEAKER_00]: No weather concerns.
3:53
[SPEAKER_00]: If we check the practice reports, the only player that it looks like is not going to be shooting up for this one is the chief's rookie Jalen Royals.
4:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Hollywood Brown is a full go.
4:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Najee Harris is expected to go all that good stuff.
4:05
[SPEAKER_00]: So we've got some interesting flex options in this game for sure.
4:08
[SPEAKER_00]: When I think of the top guys like Aladdin McConkey, I mean, again, he's an early round pick for you.
4:14
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no way that you're not starting and he's going to he's going to jump up into the most dark category for me.
4:18
[SPEAKER_00]: You should see a ton of volume in this game in a game where 46 and a half point total.
4:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of think of these teams as, you know, maybe not as high flying offences and maybe more of a defensive battle, but Vegas has them picked for some points in this one.
4:31
[SPEAKER_00]: And as you can see, Kansas City's defense is not as ferocious through the passing game as they are against the run here.
4:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Xavier word these the next, you know, sexiest name on the list here, and he's going to go into the feels good category.
4:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I think as long as Rossi Rice is suspended, which is the first six games of the season.
4:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Where are these going to be a dude that you're going to want to get in your line up more often than not?
4:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to move myself over to the bottom right here, make my ass round, though that ass in a circle.
4:57
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's move to some other flex players here.
5:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So Keenan Allen, you know, going to take over that slot roll for the most part for the chargers.
5:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's going to be a pretty high volume snap guy here.
5:07
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to say he's a dub flex for me, because I don't really know what Keenan has left on the field.
5:11
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm going to throw him into the shaky flex category.
5:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, you could definitely do worse than Keenan right now.
5:16
[SPEAKER_00]: a legit chemistry for a long time since we're came to leaky now was his, you know, number one target leaves for a year.
5:22
[SPEAKER_00]: He's probably still got a little bit of gas left in the tank and I imagine he's a lot more motivated being back in LA than he was in that, uh, future Chicago offense there.
5:29
[SPEAKER_00]: So you can do worse in keen and Allen for show.
5:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's see what his line is for this game.
5:33
[SPEAKER_00]: 38 and a half, not great, not great, not great at all.
5:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Marquis Brown.
5:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he's going to go, he's going to be the first player I put into the rather not category down here.
5:40
[SPEAKER_00]: When I look at Mark, he's brown.
5:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he is we haven't seen anything from him with with the chief.
5:45
[SPEAKER_00]: So he might just be past his prime.
5:47
[SPEAKER_00]: He missed most of the summer with the injury.
5:49
[SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't practicing too much until the later part of the summer.
5:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Barely saw him at all last year.
5:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I just I just think for the most part, things are kind of pushing towards a direction for Hollywood Brown, Racketsy, and being a huge backseat player.
6:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean,
6:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess you could do worse, just because Rossi Rice is out and he's capable of hitting a big play and he's given any given stretch, but I imagine if they're gonna dial up big plays and this one is probably gonna go in the direction of worthy over Marquis Brown.
6:13
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's gonna go into the rather not until we see something out of him.
6:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Quentin Johnson, I think he's probably gonna fall into that same category for me.
6:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he'll end up being a starter and I think he'll run a lot of plays and there will be games like last year where he just kind of popped because he's a very good athlete and you can target him down the field.
6:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But I also think there's a chance that we see, you know, some Kyandre Lambert Smith sprinkled in some Tray Harris sprinkled in and stuff like that where Quentin Johnson, if he's not an 80% snap guy like there's no way he's touching your line up here and then there's no one else that we are thinking about for fantasy.
6:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving to the Sunday Slate of Games, we have these Saints as six and a half point underdogs to the Arizona Cardinals in New Orleans in the dome a 43 and a half point total a lot of a verse of cards I I you know this was something I've kind of been talking about throughout the summer I think the Cardinals have a
7:06
[SPEAKER_00]: a very, very good chance of being a very, very improved defense.
7:11
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're not a defense that I necessarily look at anymore and on paper, I'm like, yeah, I can't wait to get my guys into the lineup.
7:17
[SPEAKER_00]: We obviously don't know, you know, how this situation at quarterback is going to play itself out.
7:20
[SPEAKER_00]: We saw a little bit of Spencer Rattler last year and it wasn't something that left us with a good taste in our mouth.
7:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So for
7:27
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of ay in this passing offense, I mean, a lot of ay is going to be a shiki flex for me.
7:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Rashiji heat, I know a lot of people like him, I'm going to throw him into the rather not category though for me.
7:36
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not a guy that I'm looking to get into my lineup in week one.
7:39
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a big play guy and I just, you know, I don't really want to rely on Spencer Rattler hitting on big plays.
7:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I also forgot to check the practice reports for this one.
7:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Do we have any players with DNPs?
7:48
[SPEAKER_00]: We have Trevor Pending on the offensive line for the Saints, a DNP with the toe.
7:53
[SPEAKER_00]: So that is something to monitor.
7:54
[SPEAKER_00]: the rest of them were limited on Wednesday in practice.
7:58
[SPEAKER_00]: And for the most part, for you guys, just like a basic rule of thumb.
8:01
[SPEAKER_00]: If a player starts off the week, limited on Wednesday, 90% they're playing on Sunday.
8:08
[SPEAKER_00]: If you can get off the start of the week with a limited practice,
8:11
[SPEAKER_00]: very, very, very high likelihood that you are playing.
8:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, there could always be a setback throughout the week that that's pretty much the trend I've gathered for doing this for many years.
8:20
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're limited on Wednesday, you're very much on track to play.
8:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, any sort of setback can happen throughout the week that pulls them off the injury report.
8:27
[SPEAKER_00]: But the MPI Wednesday does not, you know, it's not the end of the world.
8:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't mean they're not playing.
8:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But if we see DNP, DNP, DNP, then they are 90% out of that game, whichever depending on the offensive line,
8:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Michael Wilson, Brandon Cooks, Devon Valle, the goat, none of them are startable in fantasy.
8:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously speaking, Devon Valle, dealer no deal on the trivia channel goes live Friday.
8:50
[SPEAKER_00]: We're back, baby, week one, tomorrow.
8:52
[SPEAKER_00]: One PM Eastern time.
8:53
[SPEAKER_00]: We go live for deal and no deal.
8:55
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
8:55
[SPEAKER_00]: So I know some y'all are trivia fucking heathens out there.
8:58
[SPEAKER_00]: It's coming back.
8:59
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
8:59
[SPEAKER_00]: You could wipe the drool off the side of your mouth.
9:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Marvin Harrison Jr.
9:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Now he's probably, you know, the most interesting player on this list for these games here.
9:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Marvin Harrison Jr.
9:08
[SPEAKER_00]: A decent rookie year.
9:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Weird chemistry with Kyler Murray.
9:12
[SPEAKER_00]: He bulked up, which I'm not going to lie.
9:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know that I feel like that that was a great move for him.
9:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think like,
9:18
[SPEAKER_00]: We need to see him be stronger or physically imposes will against corner backs.
9:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I almost feel like I would have liked to see him maybe drop some weight.
9:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe get a little bit more shifty.
9:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe get a little bit more elusive out there.
9:30
[SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, I'm not one to judge your body shame right now.
9:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I think on paper, the matchup is good.
9:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think the secondary for the Saints could be okay.
9:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Koola and McKintrie could be a player this year.
9:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So, could see some issues there.
9:41
[SPEAKER_00]: But overall, I think more of you drafted him relatively early.
9:44
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's the Saints defense.
9:45
[SPEAKER_00]: They're in the dome.
9:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll throw him into the dub flex category.
9:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's move to Atlanta and Tampa Bay.
9:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Godwin's obviously not playing Darnell Mooney.
9:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Looks like he's going to be active for this game if we look at the practice reports.
9:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, a lot going on with this one.
9:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Chris Godwin obviously is not going to be playing in this one.
10:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Darnal Mooney, limited practice, which tells us that he's very, very likely, shooting up for this one, K-Dot and back at practice as well, limited.
10:08
[SPEAKER_00]: So it looks like he's going to be going to Vita Vaya, and Tristan Worfford, you know, Tristan Worfford's out for this game.
10:13
[SPEAKER_00]: But Vita Vaya as a DMP could be a huge, huge upgrade for the Atlanta offense.
10:19
[SPEAKER_00]: But from the passing game, K-Dot and is back.
10:21
[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, not going to overly move anybody.
10:24
[SPEAKER_00]: During the money expecting to play, I mean, this is the environment you want to be in right Tampa Bay Atlanta NFC South matchup 46 and a half point total.
10:30
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a defense that you, you know, that you want to be thrown the ball again.
10:33
[SPEAKER_00]: So, during the money's going to be a dub flex for me, break London is a must start for me.
10:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Mike Evans, of course, is a must start.
10:39
[SPEAKER_00]: He's probably going to go fucking bonkers.
10:41
[SPEAKER_00]: What's his line out right now?
10:42
[SPEAKER_00]: 71 and a half with a plus 115.
10:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Any time or Drake London is 78 and a half of the plus 130 any time or you love to see it Where was Darnell Mooney at Darnell Mooney's at they only have his any time or up at plus to 60 a mechagbooga his lines probably juicy 58 and a
11:00
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a big number.
11:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it doesn't seem like a crazy number right now on paper, but that's a very big number for a first time player.
11:08
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna be honest with you, I think I have a Google all the way up is like a top 20 wide receiver in my rankings right now.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Those, again, are available on bdge.co for big dog members.
11:17
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the only place that you can see my actual list numerical order of rankings.
11:22
[SPEAKER_00]: But if I got a boooka, like he's going straight into my lineup this week, I mean, you don't get much better than this Atlanta Falcons matchup.
11:28
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, in good weather, week one, people are going to be ripping, no godwin, no jail McMillan, like this is the time for a boooka to just show out and show that that hype has been real throughout the course of the summer.
11:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's going right into my lineup.
11:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Carolina Jacksonville, we've got a little weather update up there.
11:44
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a slim chance of a classic Florida pop-up shower or storm, but the coverage looks low so it would likely end up
11:50
[SPEAKER_00]: drive.
11:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So not overly concerned about that one when we look at the practice reports.
11:54
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got Ichi out there for the Panthers offensive tackle is a DNP.
11:58
[SPEAKER_00]: He is doubtful for this game.
12:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So a downgrade to their offensive line.
12:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I got to say, got a lot of injuries on the O line.
12:03
[SPEAKER_00]: We got Robert Hunt limited.
12:05
[SPEAKER_00]: We got Damian Lewis limited.
12:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Like those are some
12:07
[SPEAKER_00]: players out there, but the fact that they were limited does mean that they are likely to go, so not overly concerned with the offensive line out there, nothing else notable for this game.
12:16
[SPEAKER_00]: This is another one which is beautiful matchups on both sides.
12:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Brian Thomas Jr., of course, is going to go right into the Mustard category with a 77.5
12:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Tent McMillan and Travis Hunter for me are both going to go into the field's good category.
12:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't necessarily know that you can throw anyone we've never seen play directly into the must-start tier, but as you can see, they both just have beautiful matchups.
12:40
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, you know, for teams that are not necessarily like high power, high scoring offenses, 46 and a half game total is pretty high.
12:46
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the same as the Tampa Bay and Atlanta game.
12:49
[SPEAKER_00]: They're in Jacksonville relatively good weather.
12:51
[SPEAKER_00]: For Tet, you no longer have Jalen
12:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know who else is gonna get targets there besides him and Xavier LaGET, Hunter Renfero is back on the team, but I mean, they cut him.
13:02
[SPEAKER_00]: They obviously don't think that highly of him.
13:04
[SPEAKER_00]: So Xavier LaGET, I actually think you could do a lot worse than him because the target consolidation is gonna be a lot slimmer.
13:10
[SPEAKER_00]: And last year, they had him kind of playing that technique mill on a roll, which is not what he's like really capable of.
13:15
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a lot better than another position.
13:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And I actually think LaGET is extremely serviceable flex given the lack of target competition.
13:23
[SPEAKER_00]: In Carolina right now, Diami Brown's another one that I think you can put into the shaky flex category.
13:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously all the targets are going to go to BDJ and Travis Hunter for the most part, but Diami Brown's probably going to be on the field for a lot of snaps and this one he's a downfield playmaker can kind of pop off at any time.
13:36
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a big time field stretcher back in college at UNC, from my bowl knowers out there, blind at 24 and a half.
13:42
[SPEAKER_00]: But I will tell you my first top play of the week for the receivers right here, Diami Brown longest reception 14 and a half.
13:50
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
13:50
[SPEAKER_00]: This is my favorite wide receiver play over the week matchup is phenomenal game script should be great.
13:57
[SPEAKER_00]: They should be thrown the ball.
13:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're going to see Trevor Lawrence and this Liam Cohen offense just opened it up from the rip week one.
14:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think Diamie connects on just one pass of 14 and a half yards.
14:08
[SPEAKER_00]: And we lock this in as you could see you could see all of my plays here.
14:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything that I take and that is on the picking app.
14:15
[SPEAKER_00]: As you could see on this screen, you could see every play I take.
14:18
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no hiding.
14:18
[SPEAKER_00]: It is all out in the open.
14:20
[SPEAKER_00]: It is transparent.
14:20
[SPEAKER_00]: You could see how good or how terrible I am throughout the year.
14:23
[SPEAKER_00]: You could literally track everything I take throughout the entirety of the season.
14:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Completely free.
14:28
[SPEAKER_00]: This is on the picket app.
14:29
[SPEAKER_00]: You could see there in the top left.
14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of cutting off the logo there.
14:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Let me minimize this first sec.
14:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, this is pick it.
14:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So I will link pick it down below.
14:36
[SPEAKER_00]: If you use code B D G E when you get on there, it's free.
14:39
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't got to put a credit card in or nothing like that.
14:41
[SPEAKER_00]: It will automatically follow.
14:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I think guts account, but you could find my account through him.
14:45
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's all branded account, but you could look for me.
14:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I'm just at Nick or Colano on this app.
14:50
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, this was like a social bet tracking app and you could look at your calendar like what you've won, what you've lost over the last couple months or days or whatever.
14:57
[SPEAKER_00]: And you can go follow any of your favorite creators.
14:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So pick it up, you know, if you want to trail me, if you want to take everything that I take, go take the Army Brown and of course, you know we had to pay the shit out of Kyle puts under 17 and a half, that motherfucker not bringing in an 18 yard pass.
15:10
[SPEAKER_00]: What do we down?
15:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but go down to pick it up, use code BGE when you get on there to sync your books and to go follow me.
15:17
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's move to Sincy and Cleveland.
15:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is going to be another another game where you want to get everybody that you should be getting into your line up into your line up.
15:25
[SPEAKER_00]: We got wins around 10 miles per hour sustain.
15:28
[SPEAKER_00]: That's maybe enough to mention, but probably not quite enough to make any real impact.
15:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Any practice report updates that we need to know might call their defensive tackle was a DMP so that could be a little bit of an upgrade for a guy like Chase Brown.
15:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody else was limited.
15:43
[SPEAKER_00]: to play, but we'll kind of keep an eye on that throughout the rest of the week.
15:47
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what?
15:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't like love the matchup against Cleveland's defense.
15:49
[SPEAKER_00]: They're pretty scrappy defense.
15:50
[SPEAKER_00]: They're pretty good in the secondary for the most part.
15:53
[SPEAKER_00]: At least Denzel Ward is, but obviously we're putting Jamar Chase in the Mustard.
15:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think at this point, you got to put T-Higgins in the Mustard, where it gets interesting is the flip side of things.
16:00
[SPEAKER_00]: We got Joe Flacco as a starter, and we have Cincinnati with an absolutely atrocious, probably an understatement, a atrocious defense here.
16:13
[SPEAKER_00]: bordering on the Mustart category for me, but I'm going to throw him into the feels good.
16:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I feel as good about starting him as I do any of these guys.
16:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe right now in my rankings.
16:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I have him as my wide receiver 15, maybe even 14.
16:25
[SPEAKER_00]: So like he's up there.
16:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, 61 and a half is a strong line.
16:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Cedric Tillman actually really think he is a is a decent flex category as well.
16:34
[SPEAKER_00]: dealt with some injuries.
16:35
[SPEAKER_00]: He's last year, but you got to remember when it was James under center at QB and Tillman was in the lineup before he got hurt like he was getting real wide receiver one target numbers and and out producing Jerry Judy for a three four game stretch there now.
16:48
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Joe Flacco.
16:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So I do expect them to lean pretty heavily on the passing game, which I think there's going to be a decent amount of targets to go around.
16:55
[SPEAKER_00]: So I probably am not going to start him over any guys in the dub flex category.
17:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'll probably throw him into the shaky flex, but if I'm.
17:02
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if I'm ordering guys in this category, like, he's moving up closer to the top of it than he is to the bottom of it.
17:09
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Cedric Tilman, I think, is kind of a sneaky play for you.
17:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Andre Oshriva, she's going to go into the rather not.
17:14
[SPEAKER_00]: If we had a cone cat, he'd be there.
17:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Indie and Miami practice reports.
17:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Got almost nothing on the cult side.
17:21
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got a lot of limited players from Miami, we didn't cover it yesterday, but Devon H and was limited at practice.
17:27
[SPEAKER_00]: So again, that does kind of match the reports that he has expected to play on Sunday, the DNPs, Ethan Bonner, cornerback for the Dolphins, Darren Waller did not practice on Wednesday, so maybe he can get a limited in Thursday Friday, but I would not be holding my breath on that one,
17:47
[SPEAKER_00]: for the passing side of things and I'm not a guy that you can start right now because the starters out there are out peers who I don't want to start really at all so that actually just answers my question because I just said rather not but I do think there's a chance to come up so this this might be secondary might be like all time bad.
18:04
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't have any sort of quarterback help or depth and they add, you know, guys leave in the off-season Jalen Ramsey and they had guys get injured for the entirety of the season.
18:11
[SPEAKER_00]: So like, they are hurting on that side of the ball.
18:14
[SPEAKER_00]: But that being said, this is a high total, 47 and a half points that's probably an under I'm gonna take.
18:19
[SPEAKER_00]: But when I'm looking around at the rest of the players, Jalen Waddle, everyone wants him to have a bounce back.
18:24
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a cult secondary that I think on paper can be much improved.
18:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they dealt with a lot of injuries last year and it kind of like shook their secondary.
18:34
[SPEAKER_00]: All that, I think, kind of downplayed the personnel that they have on that side of the ball.
18:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they could be a good defense this year.
18:41
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think the matchup is decent for Miami.
18:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I really want to see them come out and like impose their will a little bit before I feel great about starting any of these guys.
18:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So, I do think with the total, no weather problems like coming out slinging week one, I'm probably going to put Jan Waddle in the dub flex category.
18:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Tyre Kills is going to go into the feels good category for right now.
19:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Josh Downs is going to be one of Daniel Jones's top targets off the rip.
19:07
[SPEAKER_00]: So, he's actually going to go into the dub flex category for me.
19:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Immediately, Michael Pittman is going to go into shaky flex category for me, because I think he's probably the number three target at this point behind Downs and Tyler Warren and we shall move on.
19:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Las Vegas, New England.
19:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the one big practice report that we need to keep an eye on here is Christian Gonzalez.
19:24
[SPEAKER_00]: He pulled his hamstring last week.
19:26
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a DNP on Wednesday.
19:27
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think there's a very real chance that we do not see Christian Gonzalez suit up in this one for New England, which would be a massive downgrade to their secondary and would make me feel a lot better about Jacobi Myers here.
19:38
[SPEAKER_00]: So, if Christian Gonzalez is out, like I think you've just got a throw, I think he has to be in the Dufflex category regardless, but Christian Gonzalez is out.
19:47
[SPEAKER_00]: He's very likely moving into the field's good category for me.
19:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Seth Von Diggs looks like he's a full go, not even on the practice report, and he should be the number one target against a pretty soft defense in Las Vegas out there.
19:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's actually going to go into the Dufflex category for me as well.
20:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is a game where he can come out and they might have a bunch of scheme
20:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody else, I mean, you're looking at just very, very shaky players.
20:11
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I want to see what the Dante Thornton has.
20:13
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a guy that, like, could make a very big place at a great preseason.
20:17
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a guy that you want to stash on the end of your bench.
20:19
[SPEAKER_00]: In case he makes that big player has that big week one, but I don't think you could start him at all.
20:23
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's a rather not.
20:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Pop Douglas is also going to end up being a rather not for me, but I mean, you could do worse.
20:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I suppose, yeah, but he's still going down here.
20:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Giants and Washington, we have the Giants as a five and a half point underdog, 45 and a half
20:36
[SPEAKER_00]: total.
20:36
[SPEAKER_00]: We have no real dnp's for the game, so it looks like both teams for the most part will be at full strength.
20:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Malik neighbors is a must-start.
20:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Terry McCorn in this matchup is a must-start.
20:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Darius late in that kind of feeling he could do worse than him in a matchup like this where they're probably going to have to throw the ball quite a bit, but of course he's going to go into the rather not category.
20:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Wandell Robinson, I think could be a shaky flex category for you, you know, I think Darrysley and Wandell are really more so going to be dependent on what your league scoring setting is.
21:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Like if it's full PPR, then he's a shaky flex and Darrysley is probably unusable.
21:07
[SPEAKER_00]: If it's not full PPR, then maybe you could flip the two because Wandell's not going to have yardage or real touchdown odds in any capacity.
21:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's see if he has anything.
21:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, plus 390, 37 and a half yards.
21:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Debo, I actually, I actually really, you know,
21:23
[SPEAKER_00]: This feels like a really good matchup.
21:25
[SPEAKER_00]: The giants have a ferocious d-line.
21:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm imagining Cliff King's Berry's gonna scheme up a lot of quick targets to get the ball out of Jane Daniel's his hands quickly.
21:33
[SPEAKER_00]: A terrible corner in missing almost the majority of the summer.
21:36
[SPEAKER_00]: So Debo's a pretty highly ranked guy for me.
21:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe he's a top 20, 25 guy for me this week easily.
21:41
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm actually gonna put him into the field's good category for week one.
21:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Jets at Pittsburgh, man, this is disgusting.
21:46
[SPEAKER_00]: There's really nobody that you want to start here.
21:49
[SPEAKER_00]: DK is going to get all of sauce Gardener.
21:52
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to get all of the coverage from the Jets secondary, like they don't have to game plan for anything except for DK MECF.
21:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm actually going to throw him into the shaky Flex category.
22:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I just don't think the matchup gets really any worse, Garrett Wilson.
22:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to throw him into the Dubflex category.
22:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, it's a pretty similar outlook.
22:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think Gary Wilson, DK McAfr are kind of guys that I don't really want either of them in my lineup.
22:14
[SPEAKER_00]: If I can help it, the jet's defense will be a lot better than this ranking suggests for DK McAfr down here.
22:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And I expect Gary Wilson to have more targets than DK McAfr, which is why he gets into the Dubflex category.
22:26
[SPEAKER_00]: But overall, I mean, they're total of 38.5.
22:28
[SPEAKER_00]: The game total is the lowest on the entire slate.
22:31
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just, it's just going to be a game you do not want
22:34
[SPEAKER_00]: and real quick, circling back to the practice report we have saws who is limited, so keep an eye on that, but it looks like he's going to play.
22:40
[SPEAKER_00]: The Steelers first round, uh, defensive line pick, Derek Harman's been out for a minute.
22:43
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not going to play.
22:44
[SPEAKER_00]: And this one, then Elijah Veritacker just suffered a season ending injury, unfortunately, which is obviously a massive blow to their offensive line.
22:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Denver and Tennessee.
22:52
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a chance for a shower.
22:53
[SPEAKER_00]: We will need to see radar closer to the game time for any specifics.
22:56
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a four o'clock kick off here.
22:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Practice reports.
23:00
[SPEAKER_00]: We got Nate Adkins.
23:01
[SPEAKER_00]: He is a DNP.
23:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Drake Greenlaw.
23:03
[SPEAKER_00]: He is a DNP.
23:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Dan Moore on the offensive line for Tennessee is a DNP.
23:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Those would be some big hits for those teams.
23:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Both Drake Greenlaw and Dan Moore.
23:12
[SPEAKER_00]: So keep an eye on those practice reports as the week progresses.
23:15
[SPEAKER_00]: So the first really tough decision to make here is Calvin Ridley.
23:19
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to see pretty much all of Pat Sir Tan.
23:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, Tennessee is eight and a half point underdogs, which means they are going to need to be in pass game mode.
23:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Immediately, the problem is the over under is only 42 and a half.
23:32
[SPEAKER_00]: which suggests that it's not necessarily going to be like, oh, we're playing from behind shootout mode like Dallas Philly.
23:39
[SPEAKER_00]: It's almost like we're just not expecting Tennessee to really score any points, which does make sense, given the matchup against Denver and how good their defense is expected to be.
23:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's going to be crazy and how high I was on Ridley, but you probably can't find a worse week one matchup.
23:54
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got, you know, a ridiculously good offense going against a brand new quarterback right now.
23:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So really for me, he's going to go into the shaky flex category.
24:01
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to be the very top of it, but he's still a guy that I'm like,
24:04
[SPEAKER_00]: shit fucking scared to start this week as the matchup is a trotius on the flip side the matchups pretty good for court and Sutton should be good game script should be able to move the ball with ease so he's gonna go into the feels good category for me The rest of these guys are gonna be rather nuts Marvin Mims, Ellic I amainer who are both slated to start to opposite their number ones
24:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Detroit and Green Bay.
24:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's check the practice reports.
24:28
[SPEAKER_00]: So we've got Nate Hobbs for the corner back spot for Green Bay, you know, they already got rid of Jair Alexander.
24:33
[SPEAKER_00]: So while I'm like, it's cool that they got Mike Parsons, who was limited and is looking like he's on track to play this week, there's secondary is going to be pretty fucking questionable, right?
24:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So Nate Hobbs, DNP, Jayden Reed, DNP dealing with the foot injury.
24:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if he's going to suit up, man.
24:48
[SPEAKER_00]: The practice reports on Thursday Friday are going to be important for this one.
24:51
[SPEAKER_00]: As you can see, a lot of red across the board here for Jamal Williams playing against the Packers Defense.
24:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Packers Defense clearly, one of the best against the past last year, and I think a lot of how to do it, which is how dominant they were on the offensive side of the ball, just running the ball with Josh Jacobs and controlling game script and all that kind of stuff.
25:06
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I mean, when I'm looking at the weapons in this game, Jamal's and Williams, I think, do I put him in the field's good category over under a 47 and a half Detroit
25:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually think Detroit's going to come out and look to immediately impose their will and be like, yeah, we don't care about Ben Johnson and try to run it up the throats of green bay right up right up the middle there.
25:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So I do think this could be one where David Montgomery gets a lot of work from here.
25:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Give gets a lot of work.
25:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to put Jamot into the dub flex category for now.
25:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also going to put Matthew Golden immediately into the dub flex category.
25:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a really, really strong start off the rip.
25:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Romeo Dobbs is also going to be a guy that's probably getting a hundred percent of the snaps.
25:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, both of them get a pretty big upgrade if Jain Reed is out.
25:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And even if Jain Reed is playing, I think he's going to be pretty severely limited with the stress fracture in his foot for however long he does play that being said.
25:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I like the upside of gold and way more than I do Dobbs.
25:54
[SPEAKER_00]: So Dobbs going to be a shaky flex guy for me.
25:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm on Rob, of course, is just a must start at all times.
25:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Isaac Tesla and Dantavian Wix, yeah, not Dantavian Wix.
26:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Isaac Tesla's a fun name to keep an eye on another guy that you can like kind of stash the end of your roster and see what happens, but he's not someone that you're putting into your lineup in week one.
26:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving to Houston at LA for 25 Eastern kickoff, we did have Christian Kirk with a random DNP, which we were not expecting, but he's
26:17
[SPEAKER_00]: clearly dealing with a hamstring element, which would open things up for some other players in this receiver core, but we will proceed as if he is playing Nico, of course, goes into the Mustart Pooka goes into the Mustart.
26:28
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a tough matchup for the, uh, for the receivers with the Rams.
26:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And I say that.
26:33
[SPEAKER_00]: because like one obviously the Texan secondary is incredible right you got Derek singly you got a bunch of guys that really just like came on last year and they became one of the like the most ferocious secondary is along with the defensive line of Will Anderson and all that kind of stuff so they're just a they're a team that's going to be really scary to play against this year.
26:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Puka is just one of those guys that I don't think I'll
26:53
[SPEAKER_00]: ever be nervous to play because of his role in the Rams offense like he's just never going to be that pure outside extra receiver that you have to worry about matchups.
27:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Sean McVeys continuously just scheming him, moving him around, putting him in motion, putting him in the slot, like getting him against matchups against a third corner back and you
27:08
[SPEAKER_00]: getting easy separation, so just never scared to play Puka on the flip side, Devontta Adam.
27:12
[SPEAKER_00]: So his lines at 56 and a half, that's right around like the Devontta Smith area.
27:16
[SPEAKER_00]: And I will say, because of the matchup, the over under 43 and a half, so when you think of like, oh, you think of Nico Collins and CJ Stroud and Stafford and Puka and all these guys, you kind of think of like this high scoring affair.
27:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we should give more credence to the fact that both of these defenses are probably really good.
27:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm actually going to throw them off the atoms into the dub flex category.
27:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know that I feel great about his matchup, especially, you know, week one things just starting out new offense, new quarterback, all that kind of stuff.
27:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel a lot better about Puka here.
27:42
[SPEAKER_00]: If Christian Kirk goes, he's going to go into the shaky flex category for me.
27:45
[SPEAKER_00]: If he does not go, uh, I still don't really know what the split up of snap is going to be between Jason Higgins and Xavier Hutchinson.
27:51
[SPEAKER_00]: So Higgins, the more exciting name, he'd still be a rather not for me.
27:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Seattle and San Francisco.
28:00
[SPEAKER_00]: shit.
28:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, uh, let me scan this real quick and just feed you anything that actually matters.
28:05
[SPEAKER_00]: There's only 2 DNPs here.
28:07
[SPEAKER_00]: So nothing to actually worry about here.
28:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Joanne Jennings, they did just give him my $3 million incentive boost on his contract.
28:14
[SPEAKER_00]: So actually, you know, if Joanne Jennings is going to play, he's going to suit up.
28:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I, I'd like that as someone who drafted Joanne Jennings, because that does mean he's likely going to be pushing for statistical output, right?
28:24
[SPEAKER_00]: You didn't get the new contract.
28:25
[SPEAKER_00]: You didn't get what he wanted, but they gave him a 3 million on top.
28:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if the incentive is team base or player base.
28:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm assuming it's more player base, but that does mean he's way more likely to fight the injury that does mean he's way more likely to fight for yards and stats and that's all we fucking care about in fantasy football.
28:39
[SPEAKER_00]: But I got to be honest, I don't love the matchup.
28:41
[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing in Seattle.
28:42
[SPEAKER_00]: The point total is 43 and a half Seattle secondaries very good and year two of Mike McDonald I think could be a really really good defense out here.
28:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So Joanne Jennings, he's not a guy I'm looking to get immediately into the lineup.
28:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of want to see what the target dispersal between him and
28:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Ricky Pierce all kind of comes out to in week one.
29:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel better like Joanne Jennings has just now missed so much time.
29:03
[SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't it's not a huge impact in the fact that like he obviously knows the playbook.
29:07
[SPEAKER_00]: He's been in San Francisco for a while, but conditioning kind of concerns me a little bit.
29:10
[SPEAKER_00]: That being said, there's so little target competition in San Francisco right now.
29:14
[SPEAKER_00]: The wider receiver position.
29:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel pretty good about Ricky Pierce all out of the gate.
29:18
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to throw him into there Jackson Smith and Jigba.
29:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I imagine he's going to get a lot of the attention from San Francisco's secondary.
29:24
[SPEAKER_00]: But at this point, you know,
29:26
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no way you're actually sitting him Cooper Cups the only other player to really talk about here He's not a must sit for me.
29:31
[SPEAKER_00]: He's definitely not a must start for me I'm just gonna throw him into the shaky flex category.
29:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Just see how this Seattle offense ends up Spurning out points Sunday night football.
29:39
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got you know one of the goat matchups buffalo against Baltimore game total of 50 and a half which I believe is the highest on the slate Which should mean like oh we want pieces of the players in on this team, right?
29:52
[SPEAKER_00]: But the wider severs
29:53
[SPEAKER_00]: man, they just don't really like make a big impact for most of these teams in terms of like being able to be predictable with them when we look at DMPs we have Isaiah likely DMP very unlikely to play in this upcoming week one game if he's not already ruled out and then you have Tridavius White who is a DMP, you know, he's on the older side, but good to see Clueless Shakir back in practice at full after having the high ankle sprain during the summer so he looks like he's going to be a full go Shakir, you know, they're just really tough matchups
30:22
[SPEAKER_00]: super super legit, right?
30:24
[SPEAKER_00]: They added Malachi Starks with their first round pick to play safety next to Kyle Hamilton.
30:29
[SPEAKER_00]: They also obviously added Jair Alexander in the second area.
30:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Like this is going to be a fucking ferocious defense.
30:34
[SPEAKER_00]: So she's just based on who they're playing against.
30:37
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to go into the Doug Flex category.
30:39
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to be the only build that I feel comfortable starting out of the gate.
30:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I like the addition of Josh Palmer.
30:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I like the addition of Keon Coleman.
30:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Coleman's going to be a very, very shaky flex and almost feel weird, throwing him into the same category.
30:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like a Calvin Ridley.
30:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I think for Josh Palmer and Keon Coleman, they're both going to be rather nuts for me until I see something different.
30:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Because even down the stretch, I know Keon Coleman was dealing with some injuries last year, but down the stretch, like he was getting very, very little playtime.
31:02
[SPEAKER_00]: And almost no targets here.
31:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Zay flowers.
31:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the bills have a pretty good defense, but like he's the one guy feel good about.
31:08
[SPEAKER_00]: playing the Widership Reposition for both the more in week one.
31:11
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to go into the feels good category for me.
31:13
[SPEAKER_00]: His lines up at 57 and a half plus 185 for TD.
31:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like his setup this week.
31:19
[SPEAKER_00]: On the flip side, I don't know what DeHop's going to be in this offense.
31:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe he gets involved in the red zone area, but both him and Rashad Bateman are both guys I would rather not start in week.
31:28
[SPEAKER_00]: one.
31:28
[SPEAKER_00]: And we have the last game of this slate Monday night football.
31:31
[SPEAKER_00]: We got Minnesota at Chicago 43.5 point total Vegas is kind of thinking what I'm thinking here.
31:38
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it's exciting on paper.
31:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to get sloppy.
31:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I think both of the defenses are probably going to outplay the opposing offenses here.
31:47
[SPEAKER_00]: You got JJ McCarthy brand new quarterback.
31:49
[SPEAKER_00]: You got Caleb Williams and the bears a brand new offense playing against a very, very tricky defense.
31:54
[SPEAKER_00]: One that has now had all offseason to prepare for week one.
31:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So Brian Flora has just had the last three months to get ready for Chicago and Ben Johnson has plenty of tape and film on Detroit's offense last year.
32:06
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think this could be sloppy at least for the first quarter, two quarters and obviously that's going to affect the rest of the game here.
32:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I'm probably going to take some some lower props in this game.
32:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't take them yet, but again, if you want to follow and see what I do end up taking, I sink my books to the picket app pretty frequently there.
32:22
[SPEAKER_00]: So if you go follow me, I'm picket link down below.
32:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you want to tell any of them, I take all of them on MGM.
32:28
[SPEAKER_00]: If you use code BDGE, when you download the MGM app, you can get up to $1,500 back if you brick your first bet.
32:35
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, we don't brick, but if you brick, if you decide to fade me and brick that
32:43
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's look at some players here.
32:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Adam Thelon, I kind of like his return because we have Jordan Addison not gonna be playing.
32:50
[SPEAKER_00]: We got no practice report game, obviously, because this is Monday, so their practices get pushed back a day.
32:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I honestly think like, I think Thelon can go into the shaky flex category.
32:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he'll be like a player off the rip.
33:00
[SPEAKER_00]: When I look at DJ Moore and Rome, I honestly think because of the matchup, I'm like a little bit scared to throw them into the dub flex category, because when I think of dub flex, I'm like, these are guys that I feel good about flexing.
33:11
[SPEAKER_00]: These are guys that I feel legitimately like, oh, if I have them in that, you know, first flex, second flex spot, I feel pretty good about them in a week one.
33:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not gonna lie.
33:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, despite how much I wanted to draft Rome at Dunesay this off season, I think for like right now, I'm gonna throw him into the shaky flex category.
33:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a very tough secondary to throw the ball against it.
33:29
[SPEAKER_00]: You could see just a lot of red and orange across the board here.
33:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Minnesota secondary was one of the very, very best in the NFL last year.
33:35
[SPEAKER_00]: And Chicago's is no snooze fest either.
33:37
[SPEAKER_00]: So shaky flex when we go Rome,
33:39
[SPEAKER_00]: DJ Moore, I think, could be interesting.
33:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I probably like him a little bit more than Rome.
33:43
[SPEAKER_00]: In week one, I think I have him about six spots hiring my rankings.
33:46
[SPEAKER_00]: So out the gate, I'm probably going to throw him into the dub flex category.
33:49
[SPEAKER_00]: So probably have more scheme dub touches and get the ball in his hands early and get that game kind of going.
33:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even just have to ask him to ever send.
33:55
[SPEAKER_00]: He's obviously going to go into the must start category for us.
33:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is the entirety of the rankings all 16 games.
34:02
[SPEAKER_00]: As always, I will be
34:03
[SPEAKER_00]: doing this every Wednesday, every Thursday for running backs.
34:05

34:22
[SPEAKER_00]: You got the top tier mustards.
34:24
[SPEAKER_00]: We got the feels good.
34:25
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got the dub flexes down there.
34:27
[SPEAKER_00]: We have got the shaky flexes.
34:29
[SPEAKER_00]: And we've got the rather knots.
34:31
