- 2:01Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 2:01Speaker 5: Never again? Never got out with no backwards hat. The
- 2:04Speaker 5: worst week seven, worst mainslate of all time. But I'm
- 2:08Speaker 5: gonna be wearing this jersey. Excuse me anytime the Jets
- 2:11Speaker 5: is on the slates. Pretty fun showdown.
- 2:14Speaker 6: Game, I think.
- 2:14Speaker 5: Right here, we have some pieces of news. The Hockinson questionable,
- 2:18Speaker 5: Pooka questionable. It seemed all week like Pooka wasn't gonna play.
- 2:22Speaker 5: Some optimism this morning. I'm still not expecting them to though, Hockinson,
- 2:26Speaker 5: I don't think plays either, but we will get all
- 2:29Speaker 5: that news with an actives. Geez, I g ate some
- 2:32Speaker 5: almonds before the show token right now, so that's not
- 2:36Speaker 5: sitting well. But yeah, excited for a pretty good game
- 2:39Speaker 5: and Jets. You know he's gonna go off again.
- 2:43Speaker 2: I never heard this one. I like this one from
- 2:44Speaker 2: Johnny where your hat the direction you want your life
- 2:46Speaker 2: to go? You know me, my friend I talked about
- 2:49Speaker 2: it last week. Always forwards, baby, always up. We love
- 2:51Speaker 2: to see it all right. We got Vikings at the Rams.
- 2:54Speaker 2: Could be a good back and forth. Vikings took their
- 2:56Speaker 2: first l last week. There's been some crazy rumors around
- 2:59Speaker 2: the tradings off with Cup and situational stuff there. Hoop,
- 3:02Speaker 2: I'll bring it in first to you just for the
- 3:03Speaker 2: grand scheme overview. First thoughts on this game and what
- 3:06Speaker 2: we're gonna see. I'm a title by the way. I
- 3:08Speaker 2: know we can do if then scenarios, but it feels
- 3:10Speaker 2: like Pooka Nakua and TJ. Hawkinson again just the thought
- 3:14Speaker 2: early on the afternoon, but feels like they're not going
- 3:16Speaker 2: to be in. So I'm going to look at it
- 3:17Speaker 2: that way for right now, and obviously if things change,
- 3:19Speaker 2: will have it up over on the site.
- 3:21Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the Puka thing kind of came out
- 3:24Speaker 3: of nowhere where like, oh, he might play today, and
- 3:28Speaker 3: I don't know, really no follow up information on it.
- 3:30Speaker 3: And then Hawkinson, I think Hockinson probably has a more
- 3:33Speaker 3: realistic chance than Pooka, but we'll see. And for the
- 3:36Speaker 3: sake of the show, I mean in most of the
- 3:38Speaker 3: conversation is going to be I guess assuming both those
- 3:41Speaker 3: guys are out. Obviously, everything over at Ship and Nation
- 3:44Speaker 3: will be updated as soon as we get news, and
- 3:47Speaker 3: there's a chance we don't get news on this until
- 3:49Speaker 3: inactives come out, you know, an hour and a half
- 3:51Speaker 3: before before the game starts. So something to monitor throughout
- 3:55Speaker 3: the day would have a little bit of impact definitely
- 3:58Speaker 3: on the slate whether or not, you know, if those
- 4:01Speaker 3: guys do happen to play. But like I said, we'll
- 4:03Speaker 3: update all our content and we'll be in the discord
- 4:06Speaker 3: discussing the impacts of those guys if they.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Are potentially in. But it's a good appealing game. I mean,
- 4:12Speaker 4: we've got a.
- 4:13Speaker 3: What forty eight total relatively close spread. Cooper Cupp coming back,
- 4:18Speaker 3: which definitely makes a Rams offense way more potent, i'd say,
- 4:21Speaker 3: and obviously improves the prospects for Matthew Stafford. And then
- 4:25Speaker 3: on the Minnesota side, you kind of know what you're
- 4:28Speaker 3: gonna get. I mean, Justin Jefferson, absolute stud, Aaron Jones
- 4:32Speaker 3: having a hell of a season, Sam Darnold playing really
- 4:35Speaker 3: solid football. I'd say, you know, in terms of the
- 4:38Speaker 3: captain conversation, it might be a pretty narrow pool for
- 4:44Speaker 3: me because I think it just might be one of
- 4:46Speaker 3: those guys going off like a Justin Jefferson, Aaron Jones,
- 4:49Speaker 3: Kyron Williams, Cooper Cupp. These are two offenses that, for
- 4:53Speaker 3: the most part, like man, it's usually one of those guys.
- 4:57Speaker 3: And I guess maybe you could throw like Jordan Addison
- 4:59Speaker 3: into the like he said, some big games over the
- 5:01Speaker 3: course the last couple of seasons, But it just seems
- 5:05Speaker 3: like at the end of the night, it's probably gonna
- 5:06Speaker 3: be one of those four Jefferson, Aaron Jones, Karen Williams
- 5:11Speaker 3: or Cooper Cupp. So we'll discuss it all obviously here
- 5:14Speaker 3: as we go on throughout the show.
- 5:16Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'm gonna talk some quarterback captains too.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Both these guys can spread it around, and I'm not
- 5:19Speaker 2: as scared about these other guys. Even Jefferson himself this
- 5:22Speaker 2: season three games now, where you thought he's gonna break
- 5:24Speaker 2: a main slate showdown much different, but he just gets
- 5:27Speaker 2: you that twenty twenty go like he just capped, and
- 5:29Speaker 2: so it's not like he's going to be because it's
- 5:30Speaker 2: a totally different slate. But just to say it, I
- 5:32Speaker 2: don't think it's got to be all him. I also
- 5:33Speaker 2: think Cooper Cup conversation's interesting because he could end up
- 5:37Speaker 2: being overwhelmed. A lot of talk title about they have
- 5:39Speaker 2: to showcase this guy. I don't think you have to
- 5:41Speaker 2: showcase Cooper Cup for any trade. People know who he
- 5:44Speaker 2: is already. You don't need to showcase him. If anything,
- 5:47Speaker 2: you may want to keep him healthy. If your ultimate
- 5:49Speaker 2: goal is to get him in there. He'll still be involved.
- 5:51Speaker 2: He's back. That's exciting. But what's your thoughts just early
- 5:54Speaker 2: on Grand Scheme overview before we get into full on
- 5:56Speaker 2: captain talk.
- 5:57Speaker 5: The first thing that stood out I've seen it multiple
- 6:00Speaker 5: multiple people on the industry, is this line was surprising.
- 6:03Speaker 5: The Vikings have been so good seeing them at three,
- 6:06Speaker 5: and now it's two and a half on DraftKings. So
- 6:08Speaker 5: usually when I see Lions that I expect maybe be
- 6:10Speaker 5: a little wider, I usually I'm like, man, what am
- 6:13Speaker 5: I missing? And I lean into like the opposite of
- 6:16Speaker 5: what I initially thought. So I'm like Vikings like best
- 6:19Speaker 5: bet out there, Minustery minus two and a half. I
- 6:21Speaker 5: circle back, I'm like, man, this feels like a big
- 6:24Speaker 5: trap game. They're going on the road coming off a
- 6:28Speaker 5: tough loss against the Lions. The thing for DFS broad
- 6:32Speaker 5: Slate Overview, we know three threes will be very, very
- 6:35Speaker 5: popular today. I do think four to two rams might
- 6:38Speaker 5: be a little more popular. I think it'll be pretty close.
- 6:40Speaker 5: But I like five ones on both sides for sure,
- 6:42Speaker 5: since I think they'll both be under owned if people
- 6:45Speaker 5: want to go more balanced. When I noticed that captain
- 6:48Speaker 5: five captains we have like ten percent and above, and
- 6:51Speaker 5: then after that it seems pretty low ow. If you
- 6:53Speaker 5: want to play a Jordan Atison to have some interest
- 6:56Speaker 5: in a DeMarcus Robinson, a two to two at well,
- 6:59Speaker 5: all of them will be relatively low own. It's gonna
- 7:01Speaker 5: be Jets, it's gonna be Cooper Cup, it's gonna be
- 7:04Speaker 5: both running backs and then Sam Darnold. I think you
- 7:07Speaker 5: mentioned the quarterbacks if you like them both. I like
- 7:10Speaker 5: them both too, and I came in planning on playing
- 7:12Speaker 5: them both because they do they both have options to
- 7:14Speaker 5: spread it out a good amounts. And if Jefferson does
- 7:17Speaker 5: only get you like twenty points and Darnald goes for
- 7:20Speaker 5: three hundred and three touchdowns, he probably is the guy
- 7:22Speaker 5: up top instead of Jefferson at half the ownership there.
- 7:26Speaker 5: So I do think I'm gonna be like who more
- 7:28Speaker 5: concentrated at captain. I will mix in like the lower
- 7:31Speaker 5: own pieces, will be skill positioned guys like DeMarcus, like Addison,
- 7:35Speaker 5: like to to two guys that I still think have
- 7:37Speaker 5: twenty plus point upside. But I don't think I'm gonna
- 7:41Speaker 5: be playing like. I'm not going kickers, I'm not going defenses.
- 7:44Speaker 5: I'm not playing the blake Korums, the ty Chandlers of
- 7:47Speaker 5: the world there.
- 7:48Speaker 6: I'll mainly be using them in the flex.
- 7:50Speaker 5: And you definitely be saying all the time showdown, you
- 7:52Speaker 5: can leave money another slate.
- 7:54Speaker 6: You definitely can leave money, and I'll be doing that
- 7:57Speaker 6: just that.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that break down. A couple of things
- 7:59Speaker 2: stand out and I'll say, first off, though people always
- 8:01Speaker 2: wondering to you know how I if I like the slate,
- 8:02Speaker 2: don't like the slate, I talk about it, tell you
- 8:04Speaker 2: how it is. I would say this is a Goldilocks game,
- 8:06Speaker 2: not too hot, not too cold, just right the way
- 8:09Speaker 2: I think this slate would spice up a little bit,
- 8:10Speaker 2: as if we did get Poop and nakoua in or TJ.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Hawkinson or something, and then it really starts to flip
- 8:15Speaker 2: around and some more tough decisions can be made. Other
- 8:18Speaker 2: people have already made their lineups that could be behind
- 8:20Speaker 2: on thought process or using value plays that may not
- 8:23Speaker 2: be as good anymore, mixing up combinations of wide receivers
- 8:26Speaker 2: that maybe they should be separating now, things like that.
- 8:28Speaker 2: So definitely think there's a lot of process to this
- 8:30Speaker 2: slate to see as the day goes on, We'll have
- 8:32Speaker 2: you covered at ship at Nation, but Hoop, I'll go
- 8:34Speaker 2: back to you. The other point title game that I
- 8:36Speaker 2: really liked was the spread Like it does seem nuts,
- 8:39Speaker 2: but I would expect to see a lot of three threes,
- 8:41Speaker 2: a lot of four twos. Anywhere there's uncertainty, people will
- 8:44Speaker 2: just go to the four. On the other side and
- 8:46Speaker 2: the two on that not as many five ones and whatnot?
- 8:48Speaker 2: Is there anything from that that you see, Like, how
- 8:50Speaker 2: do you sort of see this game going here? Because
- 8:52Speaker 2: the Vikings were really good till they lost the last one,
- 8:55Speaker 2: but before that really solid.
- 8:58Speaker 4: Uh.
- 8:59Speaker 3: I kind of like the in the spot it does
- 9:01Speaker 3: it does seem like a good spot for the Rams.
- 9:03Speaker 3: I mean, getting Cooper cutback is it's massive like in
- 9:07Speaker 3: we saw Obviously a lot of time has passed, but
- 9:10Speaker 3: week one when they face the lines, like with Cooper
- 9:13Speaker 3: cupp in there, it was a competitive game like he
- 9:16Speaker 3: he changes the dynamic of this entire team. Kieran Williams
- 9:19Speaker 3: has been good obviously, Matthew Stafford like so, I think
- 9:23Speaker 3: it is a pretty good spot for the Rams. I
- 9:25Speaker 3: think we do see a competitive, high scoring game within
- 9:29Speaker 3: a touchdown and probably you know, fifty real life points.
- 9:33Speaker 3: I think we get that tonight, which is very fun
- 9:35Speaker 3: for fantasy purposes. So I'm going to be building like that.
- 9:38Speaker 3: I'm gonna be building a high scoring, competitive game. That's
- 9:42Speaker 3: how my teams are going to look tonight. And just
- 9:45Speaker 3: one other note, I mean, I guess it might be
- 9:48Speaker 3: somewhat I don't know, it's probably still fifty to fifty,
- 9:51Speaker 3: but I think TJ.
- 9:52Speaker 4: Hockinson like might end up playing.
- 9:54Speaker 3: I think it's definitely more like I don't want to
- 9:56Speaker 3: harp on the injury stuff, but I do think like
- 9:59Speaker 3: every projection side it has him like in, So I
- 10:01Speaker 3: think there's a pretty solid chance that he does indeed play.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Yeah, the news was out on him like a little
- 10:08Speaker 2: earlier than the Puka stuff came out of the wind,
- 10:10Speaker 2: and this was, you know, a week and what do
- 10:12Speaker 2: they I think on October they activated him early earlier October.
- 10:16Speaker 4: And so I was like this window thing, you get
- 10:18Speaker 4: the twenty.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Question and that's kind of the setup. We'll have to
- 10:24Speaker 2: wait and see on that. I guy Kenny's in the
- 10:25Speaker 2: chat earlier said Onslaught vikes zero belief in this Rams offense.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Maybe a lot of talking here too, like our guy
- 10:31Speaker 2: Naid's is on it Cup season. You know, new Ones,
- 10:35Speaker 2: Cup gonna smash tonight, love Cup, Puka, smoke and mears.
- 10:38Speaker 2: Like I said, I think a lot of people like
- 10:40Speaker 2: Cup and they're excited to get him back tonight. Gerald.
- 10:42Speaker 2: These are always out on my ex account, so the
- 10:45Speaker 2: tidbits will be up later on. But just to note
- 10:46Speaker 2: that I don't see much else in there, so we
- 10:48Speaker 2: can get it right into it tight. I'll let you
- 10:50Speaker 2: kick it off because whop alreadys you know mentioned how
- 10:51Speaker 2: he's gonna be tighter at captain. You kind of equit him.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Is there anything else you want to talk about? The
- 10:55Speaker 2: one I would kick your way is the Aaron Jones stuff.
- 10:57Speaker 2: Really good matchup nursing a hamstring thing said, But I
- 11:00Speaker 2: mean he was fine, thirty five yard touchdown out of
- 11:02Speaker 2: the gates in that tougher matchup last time, and then
- 11:04Speaker 2: also sort of splits the difference. We know that on
- 11:07Speaker 2: the Viking side the two most popular captains are going
- 11:10Speaker 2: to be Sam Donald for the price savings and Justin Jefferson.
- 11:13Speaker 2: So I think Aaron Jones a little bit interesting there
- 11:15Speaker 2: as well. He'll get ownership, but it just seems like
- 11:17Speaker 2: he's getting less than Donald and less than Jefferson.
- 11:19Speaker 6: Go ahead, I love yeah, I love that.
- 11:21Speaker 5: To start it off. Aaron Jones great out of the backfield.
- 11:25Speaker 5: You saw him break in his hand, he looked. I mean,
- 11:26Speaker 5: he's always beat up, so earlier, like the first half
- 11:30Speaker 5: of the season and even any part of the regular season,
- 11:33Speaker 5: you got to be mixing in your backup running backs
- 11:35Speaker 5: and trying to limit his touches to some extent to
- 11:37Speaker 5: keep him healthy in the playoffs.
- 11:38Speaker 6: But he's minus one time to score.
- 11:40Speaker 5: And what I like what you said most Justin Jefferson
- 11:43Speaker 5: will probably be double his ownership roughly twenty percent captain
- 11:46Speaker 5: or Sam Darnold might be ten percent, Aaron Jones might
- 11:50Speaker 5: be ten percent. So you do leverage. That's like thirty percent.
- 11:53Speaker 5: You're leveraging off the passing game. If Aaron Jones runs
- 11:56Speaker 5: two in, he's minus one time to score. Absolutely loves
- 11:59Speaker 5: starting with that. I'm gonna play Justin Jefferson. He's probably
- 12:02Speaker 5: gonna be the highest on captain. He will be the
- 12:04Speaker 5: highest owned captain. You guys know the drill. He's the
- 12:07Speaker 5: best receiver in football. He should have a field day here.
- 12:10Speaker 5: If you want to get underweight, it's a game theory,
- 12:12Speaker 5: it's an ownership thing. Will not call you crazy.
- 12:15Speaker 4: What I found.
- 12:15Speaker 6: Interesting is Kien Williams.
- 12:18Speaker 5: He's minus two twenty five to score, which is by
- 12:21Speaker 5: far the best right here. Yes, he is expensive at
- 12:24Speaker 5: eleven two, but I mean Jefferson's eleven eight. So it
- 12:27Speaker 5: is hard playing both of them in the same team,
- 12:29Speaker 5: especially if you do captain one of them. It is
- 12:31Speaker 5: possible we'll get to value you talk about. But I mean,
- 12:35Speaker 5: as much as I love Jefferson, he's six hundred more.
- 12:38Speaker 5: Kyan Williams has double the touchdown prop. I like Kyt
- 12:43Speaker 5: Williams a lot. I like Cooper Cup a lot too,
- 12:45Speaker 5: but I think Kyn's my favorite captain with Aaron Jones.
- 12:48Speaker 5: Jones because of the leveraging off Karen Williams only ten
- 12:51Speaker 5: percent minus two twenty five to score getting all the
- 12:54Speaker 5: running back touches. I'm hoping the running backs one of
- 12:57Speaker 5: those two probably are on the optimal Give me Jefferson,
- 13:00Speaker 5: I'm obviously playing Cup.
- 13:01Speaker 6: If he's coming back, I expect him showcasing.
- 13:04Speaker 5: What I take out of that is I expect him
- 13:06Speaker 5: to be pretty much back to his full role. I
- 13:08Speaker 5: think he maybe could have played last week as well,
- 13:10Speaker 5: so I'm not very worried about that. And anytime you
- 13:13Speaker 5: get Cup at ten percent in captain, we know his upside.
- 13:17Speaker 6: First couple of weeks he absolutely went off.
- 13:19Speaker 5: So outside of them, I'll let you mainly touch on
- 13:22Speaker 5: the quarterbacks. I do plan on playing both of them,
- 13:24Speaker 5: and you can staff multiple pass catchers.
- 13:27Speaker 6: Three of them, maybe even four.
- 13:29Speaker 5: There's cheap options, punt tight ends and stuff I throw
- 13:32Speaker 5: in with them.
- 13:33Speaker 6: The last ones.
- 13:34Speaker 5: Jordan Addison's the main guy at seven K that I
- 13:37Speaker 5: think I'll play at captain. Just a wide receiver too
- 13:40Speaker 5: across from Jefferson that has all the upside in the world.
- 13:43Speaker 6: They're double teaming Jefferson.
- 13:44Speaker 5: If it's just an Addison day, why couldn't he be
- 13:47Speaker 5: the highest score on the slate at seven K. When
- 13:49Speaker 5: you do go there at captain, you can get very
- 13:51Speaker 5: different leaving chunks of money, etc.
- 13:54Speaker 6: So yeah, like DeMarcus Robinson two to two.
- 13:57Speaker 5: Maybe I'll have a couple percent of them, but the
- 13:59Speaker 5: main focus for me both running backs, both wide receiver ones, Addison,
- 14:03Speaker 5: and I'll mix in quarterbacks.
- 14:05Speaker 6: I do prefer Darnald.
- 14:06Speaker 2: One thing I'll say before I kick it to hoop,
- 14:07Speaker 2: just the Addison thing. I like that take. I think
- 14:09Speaker 2: he needs have a big game, though, I think he
- 14:11Speaker 2: needs two touchdowns almost. I wasn't gonna fully say it,
- 14:13Speaker 2: but I think that's kind of what it's gonna be. Otherwise,
- 14:15Speaker 2: I think it's a high possibility we see Darnald up top.
- 14:18Speaker 2: You know, Jefferson's gonna get his you know he could
- 14:21Speaker 2: have another pass to Aaron Jones or something like that.
- 14:23Speaker 2: So if Addison has it, that's great, But it just
- 14:25Speaker 2: feels like he's gonna need to have the big, big
- 14:27Speaker 2: game in order to be all the way at the
- 14:29Speaker 2: top with the totals. If it was a low scoring
- 14:31Speaker 2: game and you, for some reason see that, then yeah,
- 14:33Speaker 2: of course he can sneak in beat Jefferson. Let you
- 14:36Speaker 2: fit other stuff all those factors. But I see scoring
- 14:38Speaker 2: in this one mostly. That's how I try and look
- 14:40Speaker 2: at it, So I think for that that actually leads
- 14:42Speaker 2: me to think it's more possibly gonna be a guy
- 14:44Speaker 2: like Darnald spreading it around and Addison catches a piece
- 14:47Speaker 2: of that. So good call out, but made me think
- 14:49Speaker 2: of that. The other thing is Kenny mentioned it here. Hoop.
- 14:51Speaker 2: I'll kick this one to you because I saw two
- 14:54Speaker 2: stats today thinking to talk speaking of our guy Jerald
- 14:56Speaker 2: talking about the Tambo's tidbits. It's not gonna be in there.
- 14:58Speaker 2: I'll give it a year, but I think it's nine
- 15:01Speaker 2: touchdowns for Karen Williams already this season, so he's been
- 15:04Speaker 2: in the box a ton. Hence the prop that makes sense.
- 15:07Speaker 2: Price is factored in here. He's almost seventeen k we're
- 15:09Speaker 2: talking captains right now, sixteen to eight. And the other
- 15:11Speaker 2: thing I saw though is his pass catching has actually
- 15:14Speaker 2: gone down, even with injuries to all these pass catchers,
- 15:18Speaker 2: but his red zone usage is massive. He has I believe,
- 15:21Speaker 2: ten more red zone touches than the entire team combined
- 15:25Speaker 2: after him. That's how often they're giving it to him
- 15:27Speaker 2: in the red zone. So you talk about opportunity ceiling,
- 15:30Speaker 2: floor ceiling, all of that. Give me your thoughts on Kyroen,
- 15:33Speaker 2: and then give us your other captain's thoughts as as
- 15:35Speaker 2: we go through it here.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, he's definitely running good with the touchdowns,
- 15:38Speaker 3: there's no doubt about it. But it's all it's an
- 15:41Speaker 3: opportunity based game, and he's going to continue to get
- 15:43Speaker 3: those opportunities. There's a drive at the end of last
- 15:46Speaker 3: game where they're using Blake Korm and they got down
- 15:49Speaker 3: to the one and they immediately bring Kyron in. They're
- 15:51Speaker 3: not going to let anyone else finish off these drives
- 15:54Speaker 3: in the end zone.
- 15:54Speaker 4: It's going to be Kyen Williams.
- 15:56Speaker 3: So the opportunity is going to continue to be there
- 15:59Speaker 3: for him, which I think is the most important point.
- 16:02Speaker 3: So Yeah, just love him because the multiple touchdown upside. Now, yes,
- 16:07Speaker 3: if he doesn't continue to get these touchdowns, the fantasy
- 16:10Speaker 3: scores aren't gonna.
- 16:11Speaker 4: Look that good.
- 16:11Speaker 3: But man, it doesn't look like the opportunity is going
- 16:13Speaker 3: anywhere else. Cooper, Cup, Aaron Jones, Jefferson, like you've talked about,
- 16:19Speaker 3: those are the main four the quarterback conversation I think
- 16:23Speaker 3: is interesting. I don't have a ton of interest in
- 16:27Speaker 3: Stafford just because I just don't see him spreading it around. Now,
- 16:30Speaker 3: if Nikua is in, all right, maybe I do consider
- 16:35Speaker 3: Stafford a little bit more because then you got Cup
- 16:38Speaker 3: and Pouka, you know, probably in the red zone. If
- 16:40Speaker 3: Pooka's in, I'm guessing it's gonna be in these high
- 16:42Speaker 3: leverage situations in the red zone, inside the twenty, that
- 16:45Speaker 3: sort of thing. So then maybe I would have a
- 16:47Speaker 3: little more of Stafford. But if Puka's out, I don't
- 16:50Speaker 3: have a ton of interest in Stafford because I think
- 16:52Speaker 3: it's probably Cup that gets there. I guess kind of
- 16:55Speaker 3: Sam Darnold the same thing, Like if TJ. Hockinson is in,
- 16:59Speaker 3: I have more interest in Sam Donald captain teams because
- 17:03Speaker 3: there's more options in terms of where he can throw
- 17:07Speaker 3: the ball in a higher likelihood for him, kind of
- 17:11Speaker 3: spreading it out a little bit. So I guess I'll
- 17:14Speaker 3: probably play Donald either way, but I'll probably play more
- 17:17Speaker 3: of Donald in the captain if Hockinson is in, and
- 17:20Speaker 3: then the Jordan Addison thing, just because he's like the
- 17:23Speaker 3: cheapest I probably want to go at captain. He does
- 17:26Speaker 3: have big playoffside, does have multiple touchdown upside, and the
- 17:31Speaker 3: teams will look a little bit different with that saving.
- 17:33Speaker 3: So outside the main four, Addison and then you know,
- 17:39Speaker 3: probably Donald, like I got I got to see when
- 17:41Speaker 3: I go to Bill, but they would be the next
- 17:42Speaker 3: two in line for me in the captain spot.
- 17:45Speaker 2: Yeah. So just twenty seven minutes ago, now it says
- 17:49Speaker 2: Rams wide receiver likely to play on Thursday Night Football.
- 17:53Speaker 2: In a promising development for the Rams wide receiver Poopkin
- 17:55Speaker 2: to Coo Upp, heears on track to return for Thursday
- 17:58Speaker 2: Night Football against the Minnesota Vike. So, you know, designated
- 18:02Speaker 2: a return from ir earlier in the week. Knee seems
- 18:04Speaker 2: to be progressing well. It sounds like there is a
- 18:07Speaker 2: possibility he could be back here tonight, Hoop. So that
- 18:09Speaker 2: would sort of go to your original point of maybe
- 18:11Speaker 2: it's Stafford at load of no ownership compared to the
- 18:14Speaker 2: other four captains in Darnald Jones, Jefferson, and Cup and
- 18:18Speaker 2: even Kyroen. To be honest, it's probably sixth in line
- 18:20Speaker 2: at that point. So any extra thoughts you wanted to
- 18:22Speaker 2: add on that one quick?
- 18:25Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the reports, I don't know, it makes it.
- 18:29Speaker 4: It makes the game more interesting, Let's let's say that much.
- 18:32Speaker 3: And it makes it more interesting for fantasy when we're
- 18:34Speaker 3: waiting on news a lot of time in these primetime games.
- 18:37Speaker 3: I mean this year there hasn't been a top like
- 18:39Speaker 3: Week one when Christian McCaffrey was.
- 18:42Speaker 4: The surprise and active. We haven't had a lot of
- 18:44Speaker 4: that this season.
- 18:45Speaker 3: So James go too, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean there
- 18:50Speaker 3: was some indication there, but yeah, the news is good though.
- 18:53Speaker 4: It makes it.
- 18:54Speaker 3: You know, if you're on top of it, you're able
- 18:56Speaker 3: to analyze it and digest it could create.
- 18:58Speaker 4: A little bit of an advantage or adage.
- 19:01Speaker 3: So I'm excited that there's something that we're waiting on,
- 19:04Speaker 3: uh you know at this point of the day.
- 19:07Speaker 2: Yeah, just wondering if there's anything else. I couldn't find
- 19:09Speaker 2: too much more. We'll have to wait and see, but
- 19:11Speaker 2: it was, you know interesting. Nonetheless was to bring it
- 19:15Speaker 2: up more. We'll have to wait and see if someone
- 19:17Speaker 2: say five k on FanDuel.
- 19:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just gonna check price. That would that
- 19:23Speaker 3: makes that makes a little interesting for sure.
- 19:26Speaker 4: DK.
- 19:26Speaker 6: Let's just talk quick.
- 19:27Speaker 5: If he isn't ten to six like he's priced like
- 19:29Speaker 5: he's normal Pooka coming off no injury cup eleven, Kyried
- 19:33Speaker 5: eleven two, Jets eleven eight.
- 19:35Speaker 6: I don't know how I can click that large field stuff.
- 19:38Speaker 6: I get it, you're going to click at Tampa we click.
- 19:41Speaker 3: Yeah, it would have to be I mean it would
- 19:44Speaker 3: be Stafford captain teams where twelve in the flex is
- 19:50Speaker 3: good enough or something like that, where where we think
- 19:52Speaker 3: it's like, you know, a non high scoring slate would
- 19:55Speaker 3: would be if you're building that that sort of way.
- 19:58Speaker 4: But it's it's.
- 19:59Speaker 6: Hard to pay six for a guy that you want
- 20:01Speaker 6: to fall from.
- 20:02Speaker 4: I know, I know, but you know we've seen those slates.
- 20:04Speaker 4: You know that. I brought up the Alvin Kamara thing.
- 20:07Speaker 4: He was the most expensive. He got twelve.
- 20:09Speaker 5: He was you know, you think fifty is getting put
- 20:11Speaker 5: on though twelve talling work in the fifties, the fifties
- 20:14Speaker 5: on the board.
- 20:15Speaker 4: Well, I know that's what I'm saying.
- 20:16Speaker 3: So the way, yeah, the way I'm doing, I probably
- 20:18Speaker 3: don't get there, but it is.
- 20:20Speaker 4: I mean, you're past.
- 20:21Speaker 3: I mean, if you're playing him, you're sacrificing Justin Jefferson shares,
- 20:25Speaker 3: you're sacrificing Aaron Jones shares, you're sacrificing Kyro Williams, you're
- 20:30Speaker 3: sacrificing Cooper cup shares. So he's got to outscore some
- 20:34Speaker 3: of those dudes. And yeah, it's probably a fade.
- 20:37Speaker 2: Yeah, get top man in the flex maybe, but you
- 20:41Speaker 2: know up top, no chance, Like it's just we'll see.
- 20:43Speaker 4: Think.
- 20:44Speaker 3: Yeah, the only way I could envision myself playing him
- 20:47Speaker 3: is a Matthew Stafford captain team if you think it's
- 20:51Speaker 3: a low scoring game.
- 20:52Speaker 4: And like again, now like twelve is good enough in
- 20:55Speaker 4: the flex.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Did you have a comment on this one, Hoop, This
- 20:58Speaker 2: gets talked about all the time. Rams are act be
- 21:00Speaker 2: making calls trying to find a trade partner. They're going
- 21:02Speaker 2: to showcase him tonight like no other if they're trying
- 21:05Speaker 2: to trade them away.
- 21:05Speaker 4: That's one of those things that's just impossible.
- 21:07Speaker 3: I mean, it's impossible to know and like you know,
- 21:11Speaker 3: you really have to go in the heads of the
- 21:12Speaker 3: coaching staff and the GM and stuff like that.
- 21:15Speaker 4: I mean, it's just you just got it.
- 21:17Speaker 3: Gotta play him as if you think he's healthy and
- 21:21Speaker 3: I can't, can't really build on that sort of thing.
- 21:23Speaker 2: Can go ahead, they.
- 21:26Speaker 6: Do it anyway. I mean if they want to win.
- 21:28Speaker 5: Stafford literally just looks at Cooper Cup anyway, like that's
- 21:31Speaker 5: the offense.
- 21:32Speaker 2: So I was gonna say, it's the worst taking all
- 21:33Speaker 2: of football. Sorry to my boy new Ones. I love him,
- 21:35Speaker 2: but this is the thing. That's not why if he
- 21:37Speaker 2: gets feature tonight. Maybe it's a Stafford goodbye party that
- 21:40Speaker 2: he wants to feature him for that. Maybe it's because
- 21:42Speaker 2: they move the offense. Whatever, it just means he's going
- 21:44Speaker 2: to be more owned because people believe that. Please tell me,
- 21:47Speaker 2: where is the DeVante Adams trade party. Where's the DeAndre
- 21:50Speaker 2: Hopkins trade party. There's no such thing because you don't
- 21:52Speaker 2: need to have one. People know who Cooper Cup is.
- 21:55Speaker 2: If you're using them tonight, it's not because they're showcasing
- 21:57Speaker 2: the trade. It's because Cooper Cup's healthy. They want to
- 21:59Speaker 2: win the foototball game. So if you want to play
- 22:01Speaker 2: him jam him in. All I'm saying is it's a
- 22:03Speaker 2: very high chance he's gonna be over owned because people
- 22:05Speaker 2: are using that narrative to feed that way. And there's
- 22:07Speaker 2: just tons of other guys that we already talked about
- 22:09Speaker 2: that you can use them the site. I'll wait till
- 22:11Speaker 2: we get closer to Locke to get a better feel.
- 22:13Speaker 2: We'll have it featured on the site. But I hope
- 22:15Speaker 2: that it makes someone like kyn be less owned. I
- 22:17Speaker 2: hope that it makes guys like Stafford and Aaron Jones
- 22:20Speaker 2: be less joaned in the captain spot. All that stuff.
- 22:23Speaker 2: That's where you get you know that it's not a
- 22:25Speaker 2: tidbit though. It's just so the worst narrative in all
- 22:27Speaker 2: football because there's never there's never coming out parties for
- 22:30Speaker 2: guys that have been in the league for that many years.
- 22:32Speaker 2: It's he there's a thing called a physical when they
- 22:35Speaker 2: get traded, they have to pass it. So they don't
- 22:37Speaker 2: even need to know if he's healthy. They just know
- 22:38Speaker 2: his name. They know what they need for their team
- 22:40Speaker 2: and what they're willing to trade. And if you haven't
- 22:41Speaker 2: seen this season, guys are getting these dudes for like
- 22:44Speaker 2: fourth round and fifth round picks, so it's not like
- 22:46Speaker 2: there's some high trade priority. It's just fixing up their
- 22:49Speaker 2: salary cap and everything that got going on their side.
- 22:51Speaker 2: So nothing else for me to add a captain but title.
- 22:54Speaker 2: I'll kick it back to you, who kind of just
- 22:56Speaker 2: gave his quarterback thoughts waiting for news seeing how it
- 22:59Speaker 2: plays out, how that work up top. Similar in the
- 23:01Speaker 2: flex obviously, but just your thoughts a quarterback and any
- 23:04Speaker 2: other thoughts you want to add at running back.
- 23:07Speaker 5: Well, I think I told myself I just got to
- 23:09Speaker 5: tail you at quarterback captain, so you just you're fine
- 23:11Speaker 5: with both of.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Them back, I thought, who broke it down really well there,
- 23:15Speaker 2: I would prefer it more. I do agree with who
- 23:17Speaker 2: obviously less Stafford, because the situation with him is when
- 23:21Speaker 2: you already have guys like Kyron. Kyron could be his own.
- 23:23Speaker 2: You could do a one to five tonight, just talking
- 23:25Speaker 2: roster construction quick. You could do a one five with
- 23:27Speaker 2: Kyron and five Vikings because Kyron could do if those
- 23:30Speaker 2: red zone opportunities pop up and it's just him and
- 23:33Speaker 2: it's expensive to fit him and cup et cetera. There's
- 23:36Speaker 2: a possibility of that. So I'm more fine with it
- 23:38Speaker 2: the way it would get spread around like that, so
- 23:40Speaker 2: it would be Stafford with a couple of guys run
- 23:43Speaker 2: it back on the other side or something like that.
- 23:45Speaker 2: Darnld just fits to me because when you've got he
- 23:47Speaker 2: could check it down to Aaron Jones. Tons of work
- 23:50Speaker 2: to Jefferson, but it's still Jefferson's expensive to find his
- 23:53Speaker 2: way all the way to the top, and we're already
- 23:55Speaker 2: gonna have that in our portfolio anyway. Everybody is Addison
- 23:58Speaker 2: would spread it around any of those backups. And then
- 24:01Speaker 2: obviously if Hawkinson or even if he's not, Munt can
- 24:03Speaker 2: catch balls like you could still stack him up two
- 24:05Speaker 2: ways as well. He could run ten fifteen yards twenty
- 24:08Speaker 2: yards on the ground. That gets you another one and
- 24:10Speaker 2: a half two points three up top and the captain
- 24:12Speaker 2: at one point five x on two. So there's ways
- 24:15Speaker 2: to get to these guys, no problem. But I think
- 24:17Speaker 2: I'm gonna be tighter beyond that. The one guy we
- 24:19Speaker 2: didn't mention, and if you're done with I mean, you
- 24:20Speaker 2: can talk more on quarterback and running back, but I
- 24:23Speaker 2: don't have a lot of running back at all. But
- 24:24Speaker 2: one thing we didn't mention up top was two two
- 24:26Speaker 2: at well. Obviously this gets, this gets you know, got
- 24:29Speaker 2: a little bit if Nikua is in as they say,
- 24:31Speaker 2: and I just saw the latest one too, by the way,
- 24:33Speaker 2: they did add a caveat barring setback. So again we'll
- 24:37Speaker 2: wait for those warm ups inactives. We always post them
- 24:39Speaker 2: right away in our discord, so any members will have those.
- 24:42Speaker 2: But yeah, that's just another thought there.
- 24:43Speaker 4: Title go ahead.
- 24:45Speaker 6: Yeah, and especially with the quarterbacks.
- 24:47Speaker 5: Last thing on that nine k for Stafford, nine to
- 24:49Speaker 5: four for Donald, Aaron Jones is nine to six. But
- 24:52Speaker 5: after that you're paying over one thousand more for Cup,
- 24:55Speaker 5: two thousand more for Jefferson. So even if Jefferson Cup
- 24:58Speaker 5: Kyron do outscore them raw points wise, if it's still
- 25:01Speaker 5: close that Donald and Stafford can get there. So quarterbacks
- 25:05Speaker 5: still are underpriced. And I definitely made the mistake early on.
- 25:09Speaker 5: I X too many quarterbacks captain and just jam Moore
- 25:12Speaker 5: skill position, and you've had me circle back. So yeah,
- 25:15Speaker 5: I'm good with both quarterbacks, prefer Darnald there too. Running
- 25:18Speaker 5: backs I'll mention for flets. Obviously, Aaron Jones and Khyro
- 25:22Speaker 5: in a great plays, but they both have very obvious backups.
- 25:27Speaker 5: And when I say very obvious, like Blake Korm is
- 25:29Speaker 5: the obvious backup.
- 25:30Speaker 6: But man Kyron snapsch here is so good.
- 25:32Speaker 5: Eighty six percent in week five, eighty nine, Week seven, ninety,
- 25:36Speaker 5: Week three, like.
- 25:37Speaker 6: Seventy nine's is lowest of any of the weeks. If
- 25:40Speaker 6: he is.
- 25:40Speaker 5: Out Blake like if he gets hurt or somehow Blake
- 25:44Speaker 5: Korm finds the box, he's plus four to seventy five.
- 25:46Speaker 5: He's good leverage and arrange that DeMarcus Robinson will clearly
- 25:50Speaker 5: be higher on at three K six hundred more. And
- 25:53Speaker 5: then it becomes even better at TJ. Howkinson's out, because
- 25:56Speaker 5: Johnny Munt at two point ak would then be a
- 25:59Speaker 5: lot more popular.
- 26:00Speaker 6: The value COREN four hundred less would be a pivot
- 26:03Speaker 6: right there.
- 26:03Speaker 5: So it feels really weird to say I like Korm
- 26:06Speaker 5: Moore if TJ. Hockinson's out, but because a lot of
- 26:09Speaker 5: ownership goes right in that range, he becomes a better pivot,
- 26:12Speaker 5: and pretty much the same thing you can say with
- 26:14Speaker 5: Ty Chandler, like I like Ty Chandler a lot more
- 26:16Speaker 5: than Aaron Jones even at or a lot more than
- 26:18Speaker 5: Blake Korn even at the price because of Aaron Jones
- 26:21Speaker 5: handy and just how much. He's been injured in the past,
- 26:25Speaker 5: but man, Aaron Jones outsnapped him. What was the snaps
- 26:28Speaker 5: last week? It was a lot more surprising than I thought.
- 26:31Speaker 5: Seventy two percent for Aaron Jones, eighteen percent for ty Chandler.
- 26:35Speaker 6: CJ. Ham mixed in a little bit too.
- 26:38Speaker 5: I don't know, man, it's not even like he's gonna
- 26:40Speaker 5: be low owned, because I think he's gonna be higher
- 26:42Speaker 5: on than the defenses.
- 26:44Speaker 6: De Marcus will be probably a little higher owned. I
- 26:46Speaker 6: don't know. I'll throw it back to you, Tam. I'll
- 26:48Speaker 6: play some ty Chandler. I don't love it though.
- 26:50Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the one they said korm was gonna
- 26:52Speaker 2: get touches and then it was like ninety seven to
- 26:54Speaker 2: three or something for Kyroen. That just don't tell that
- 26:57Speaker 2: like it's always different. Some coaches do tell the truth.
- 26:59Speaker 2: More of another good follow on X's coach Speak Index.
- 27:02Speaker 2: You can pick up some tidbits on there and whatnot.
- 27:04Speaker 2: But I will say there is something about the Kirene
- 27:07Speaker 2: thing that worries me a little bit more besides just
- 27:09Speaker 2: the touchdown regression and who maybe I'll kick it to
- 27:11Speaker 2: you on This is also the if it's the short
- 27:14Speaker 2: week they're coming off, they got cut back, they maybe
- 27:17Speaker 2: get Nikua back. There actually is reasons to take away
- 27:21Speaker 2: from him. And he's eleven two hundred even in the flex,
- 27:24Speaker 2: and I know you like that side, so you're gonna
- 27:26Speaker 2: already build your lineups accordingly. You're gonna have some of
- 27:28Speaker 2: him and Captain or you're gonna have you know, lineups
- 27:31Speaker 2: with him regardless. But got to just think about some
- 27:33Speaker 2: of that stuff, especially with Nikua coming back at least,
- 27:35Speaker 2: I think what's your thoughts at the running back position?
- 27:38Speaker 3: So yeah, obviously you got the clear plays in Jones,
- 27:42Speaker 3: in in Kiren.
- 27:43Speaker 4: I mean you're gonna want to get them in regardless.
- 27:44Speaker 3: I mean, no matter who's in or out, Hockinson, Pooka,
- 27:48Speaker 3: like you're gonna want to play those guys. I mean,
- 27:50Speaker 3: the workload is absolutely insane. The thing I just struggle with,
- 27:54Speaker 3: and again I haven't built teams and I'll be building
- 27:56Speaker 3: them after and as well be reflectly in the content
- 27:58Speaker 3: is like these back up running backs like they just
- 28:02Speaker 3: haven't been needed at all Showdown basically all season long.
- 28:06Speaker 4: And you know these guys are a little bit cheaper.
- 28:08Speaker 3: Thirty six for Todd Chandler Blake Korm twenty four. But like, really,
- 28:12Speaker 3: what is what is their upside? You know, what are
- 28:15Speaker 3: you hoping to get out of these guys?
- 28:17Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 28:18Speaker 3: It's like they have two guys in front of them
- 28:20Speaker 3: that could play all but a few staffs during this game,
- 28:23Speaker 3: and I don't know. They're still gonna get owned, like
- 28:26Speaker 3: Todd Chandler's gonna get some ownership, Korn's gonna get a little.
- 28:29Speaker 4: Bit and Ageah at the end of the day.
- 28:31Speaker 3: You know, maybe I do get some of these guys
- 28:34Speaker 3: because I need it to get more Jefferson Captain stuff
- 28:37Speaker 3: like that, but I don't love it. So I'm gonna
- 28:38Speaker 3: make sure if I do play them, it's gonna be
- 28:41Speaker 3: extremely capped. It's gonna be under under the field, like
- 28:44Speaker 3: they just the backup running backs just have not been
- 28:47Speaker 3: needed for Showdown, and they're they're at a disadvantage to
- 28:51Speaker 3: like the cheap wide receivers. I mean cheap wide receiver,
- 28:54Speaker 3: I mean you get three catches, you kind of get
- 28:56Speaker 3: three points. These backup running backs are coming in and
- 28:58Speaker 3: getting three carries, like you still have to do something.
- 29:01Speaker 3: So always more times than not to go side with
- 29:04Speaker 3: like the cheap wide receivers over these cheap running backs.
- 29:07Speaker 4: It's just they just haven't been needed all season long.
- 29:12Speaker 2: Yeah, the you know other question title I'll kick it
- 29:14Speaker 2: to you and you could take it to wide receiver
- 29:16Speaker 2: is like even I think the Garrindo slate for our
- 29:19Speaker 2: boy Hebrew Cheetah. Wasn't that a blowout and a Mason
- 29:22Speaker 2: injury and it still didn't get all the way to
- 29:24Speaker 2: the top. It was second best lineup. So it's like
- 29:26Speaker 2: you almost think.
- 29:28Speaker 5: I think Arrendo got there in the flex. I know
- 29:30Speaker 5: Rio had him. I could be wrong, I guess, but
- 29:32Speaker 5: I think he was on the.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Winner in the It was like one of the last
- 29:35Speaker 4: plays of the game, like.
- 29:38Speaker 2: He'll know. But I'm almost positive Rio was gonna I apologize.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Rio was gonna have the third best lineup. He was.
- 29:43Speaker 2: He was happy it didn't cost him three hundred K
- 29:46Speaker 2: and it was like thirty K because he would have
- 29:47Speaker 2: the he had the third best lineup. I think he
- 29:49Speaker 2: only made you.
- 29:50Speaker 5: Think you're right because he had one hundred yard bonus
- 29:52Speaker 5: and he had negative two yards that ninety nine.
- 29:55Speaker 6: He went for a forty five.
- 29:56Speaker 2: Yeah, because I was trying to I think, like Bigsby
- 29:59Speaker 2: in London. But to Hoop's point, that's all is going
- 30:02Speaker 2: off like you really haven't seen it. And I love
- 30:03Speaker 2: that call out that he had. It's like a backup
- 30:06Speaker 2: wide receiver, a random wide receiver that comes in could
- 30:09Speaker 2: be like a thirty yard catch for a touchdown. You're
- 30:12Speaker 2: all those points. You're ten points just on that. Even
- 30:15Speaker 2: when a backup running back comes in and just vultures
- 30:17Speaker 2: a touchdown, it's six and then it's like cause they
- 30:19Speaker 2: get nothing for the carry, they just walk it in
- 30:21Speaker 2: one yard, six there and change. So it's like that's
- 30:24Speaker 2: the setup where we haven't seen six pointers be needed.
- 30:27Speaker 2: Or they get three carries for thirty yards three points.
- 30:30Speaker 2: Those catches come with yards that Hoop's talking about. If
- 30:33Speaker 2: it's three for thirty, it's six points for the backup
- 30:35Speaker 2: widecerire Maybe not enough, but the point is they just
- 30:37Speaker 2: rack them up quicker. So I definitely think that's somewhat
- 30:40Speaker 2: interesting about it. And yeah, we've already had the talk.
- 30:42Speaker 2: I know some people are joining us later because we
- 30:44Speaker 2: did go a half hour earlier today, but stay tuned
- 30:47Speaker 2: for that part. You'll get excited when you hear it's solid.
- 30:49Speaker 2: I gave a really good take on that we you
- 30:51Speaker 2: probably heard it already title wide receivers, go ahead.
- 30:54Speaker 5: Wide receivers easy. On the Viking side, it's Jefferson, Addison, Naylor.
- 30:59Speaker 5: They run any widors three receiver sets is almost all
- 31:02Speaker 5: of them. I mean, Jefferson's the best receiver in football. Addison.
- 31:06Speaker 5: You get some leverage off of Jefferson, and I mean
- 31:09Speaker 5: he's priced fairly.
- 31:10Speaker 6: I definitely like him.
- 31:12Speaker 5: Naylor, he's the one that feels most definitely overpriced, and
- 31:15Speaker 5: that'll reflect an ownership like he could be sub ten percent.
- 31:19Speaker 6: I like him more.
- 31:20Speaker 5: I think if there's no Hockinson, because I think they'll
- 31:23Speaker 5: run more eleven personnel with Hockinson came back, I think
- 31:27Speaker 5: probably twelve personnel would be used more and then Naylor
- 31:30Speaker 5: would be off the field, so that would hurt him.
- 31:32Speaker 5: But regardless, I mean, like who doesn't like the back
- 31:36Speaker 5: of running backs, which totally makes sense. Overspending for a
- 31:39Speaker 5: low owned receiver I think also makes sense with Naylor,
- 31:42Speaker 5: and he's found the box before, so definitely makes sense
- 31:45Speaker 5: in like Darnel captain teams as well. I doubt I
- 31:47Speaker 5: see myself go Naylor up top rams side. I mean
- 31:52Speaker 5: it's interesting without with Cooper cup coming back Winnington Also
- 31:55Speaker 5: he's out. I mean, damn near was out last week
- 31:58Speaker 5: as well. We're in a couple of routes. Everyone knows
- 32:00Speaker 5: the story about Week seven. But with Cooper Cup back,
- 32:04Speaker 5: like everyone is just expecting, and I think probably the
- 32:07Speaker 5: case is it's DeMarcus Cooper and to two and three
- 32:10Speaker 5: receiver sets. But Cooper runs a lot of his routes
- 32:13Speaker 5: out of the slot. Tyler Johnson's more of like an
- 32:16Speaker 5: outside receiver. So I'm definitely gonna be playing some Tyler Johnson,
- 32:20Speaker 5: and I'm not convinced like it's just gonna be DeMarcus
- 32:24Speaker 5: two to Cooper Cup getting eighty plus percent of the
- 32:26Speaker 5: snaps and Tyler Johnson getting pretty much nothing.
- 32:29Speaker 6: I know last week was different.
- 32:30Speaker 5: There wasn't Whittington, but Tyler Johnson outsnapped two to ninety
- 32:34Speaker 5: one percent, seventy eight percent, fifty to forty three. Very
- 32:37Speaker 5: interesting stuff, especially when you're looking at a big, big
- 32:41Speaker 5: ownership discount. So I'll be playing four and again I'm
- 32:44Speaker 5: assuming Cooper Cup or Pookah's out for all this. If
- 32:46Speaker 5: Pookah's in, then you probably don't get to Tyler Johnson.
- 32:50Speaker 2: Man, I really hope assume he's in now with these reports,
- 32:54Speaker 2: unless still not in.
- 32:56Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know. I'm still was it just Tom?
- 32:59Speaker 6: Was it just the one report? As Chefter said anything.
- 33:02Speaker 4: There's a couple people. I think it's pretty I think
- 33:04Speaker 4: it is.
- 33:05Speaker 3: Yeahif fifty at worse, Honestly, I think it's a heart
- 33:09Speaker 3: real yeah, And I don't know.
- 33:11Speaker 5: I guess I'll throw it back, like if he plays,
- 33:14Speaker 5: I don't think he's going to be close to one
- 33:15Speaker 5: hundred percent.
- 33:16Speaker 6: He hardly practice. This all came on lads, temmy.
- 33:19Speaker 5: If you guys think if he plays, he gets that
- 33:22Speaker 5: and then because that's huge with what to do with
- 33:23Speaker 5: like a Tyler Johnson.
- 33:24Speaker 2: Well, that's why I was what I was trying to say,
- 33:26Speaker 2: and you just sort of let into it there. That's perfect,
- 33:28Speaker 2: Is what I'm saying. Is I hope he's back because
- 33:29Speaker 2: I hope this report is true, because then I'm still
- 33:31Speaker 2: interested in those guys. I'm not gonna just leave them
- 33:34Speaker 2: out of my pool now, and I hope others do
- 33:36Speaker 2: because that would be the upside there is if people
- 33:38Speaker 2: just say, well, if he's back, he must be healthy
- 33:40Speaker 2: enough to play and let's roll him. It's just he
- 33:42Speaker 2: literally just got back but they did say he was
- 33:44Speaker 2: ready to come back. That's why they activated him to
- 33:46Speaker 2: be ready to come so to show up and come
- 33:48Speaker 2: back to the team. So I would just say, I'm
- 33:50Speaker 2: not seeing any other reports, but I see at least
- 33:54Speaker 2: two reports about it, and the last one caveatd it
- 33:56Speaker 2: with barring a setback. So we'll have to wait and
- 33:59Speaker 2: see what happens in warm. But if you're already happy
- 34:01Speaker 2: to be building with those guys anyway, which I am,
- 34:04Speaker 2: then it's not I'm not gonna have to change anything
- 34:05Speaker 2: with or without. I mean good shape if he's out.
- 34:07Speaker 2: Last second, I mean good shape if he's in, because
- 34:09Speaker 2: I still think those guys are gonna be involved and
- 34:12Speaker 2: still be in the mix tonight, So hoop. I don't
- 34:13Speaker 2: know if you want to have anything else to add
- 34:15Speaker 2: to that, but even assuming he's in, I still have
- 34:17Speaker 2: interest in those guys behind him.
- 34:19Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean I kind of agree with with
- 34:22Speaker 3: what you guys have laid out at this position. The
- 34:24Speaker 3: Viking side, it's very easy. Jefferson Addison Naylor, and I
- 34:29Speaker 3: like Naylor because he's kind of an unknown and he's
- 34:32Speaker 3: priced up a little bit too at sixty two hundred,
- 34:34Speaker 3: which should keep his ownership and check great play for
- 34:36Speaker 3: those Donald Captain teams. You've gone Donald Captain. I think
- 34:40Speaker 3: Naylor is a great guy to include in there, but
- 34:42Speaker 3: I'll be playing him regardless. And then on the Rams side,
- 34:46Speaker 3: obviously Cooper cup Nicky is going to be very difficult
- 34:50Speaker 3: to click at ten six if he does play, But
- 34:52Speaker 3: I'll be playing the other guys regardless too, to Robinson
- 34:55Speaker 3: and and Tyler Johnson. So I really don't have much
- 34:58Speaker 3: more to add on. I agree with what you guys
- 35:01Speaker 3: have said so far.
- 35:02Speaker 2: All right, I'm with you take it into tight end then,
- 35:04Speaker 2: because we talked about the Hawkinson thought and you feel
- 35:06Speaker 2: pretty comfortable with him. I think at least you know
- 35:08Speaker 2: you can talk if this then that. But Parkinson on
- 35:11Speaker 2: the other side popular last week, Hawkinson if he's in
- 35:14Speaker 2: or out, and then Johnny Munt the punt he's in
- 35:17Speaker 2: there at twenty eight hundred. Any thoughts of the tight
- 35:19Speaker 2: end position.
- 35:21Speaker 3: Yeah, So, I mean, you know, these are prices that
- 35:23Speaker 3: we probably need in our lineups. Like Parkinson kind of
- 35:26Speaker 3: busted last week. He was popular, but at forty four
- 35:28Speaker 3: hundred with a lot of high end guys, you're gonna
- 35:31Speaker 3: have to play some of him, and again, to me,
- 35:34Speaker 3: it doesn't matter whether Pookahs in or out. I'm gonna
- 35:37Speaker 3: have Parkinson at forty four hundred. The Viking side is
- 35:41Speaker 3: I guess somewhat interesting. Hockinson sounds like he's back. Like
- 35:47Speaker 3: if Hockinson is out, Month probably ends up being what
- 35:50Speaker 3: one of the more popular plays on the slate at
- 35:51Speaker 3: twenty eight hundred by far, I mean the very clear
- 35:56Speaker 3: standout value.
- 35:57Speaker 4: Which you don't have a ton of right now.
- 35:59Speaker 3: So if I somehow Hawkinson is out, then Month becomes
- 36:03Speaker 3: very popular twenty eight. But if Hawkinson's in, I still
- 36:05Speaker 3: have interest in Months, So I'm kind of hoping Hockinson's
- 36:08Speaker 3: in and then I can still play mon. I mean,
- 36:10Speaker 3: he's gonna have a role. Hackkinson's not coming back to
- 36:13Speaker 3: one hundred percent snaps. There are scenarios where they use
- 36:16Speaker 3: both of them.
- 36:16Speaker 4: So I like Month regardless, and then you have like
- 36:20Speaker 4: a bunch of cheap dudes that you could potentially play
- 36:22Speaker 4: Oliver long Allen. I want to avoid most of that stuff,
- 36:26Speaker 4: to be honest with you, So these tight ends are
- 36:30Speaker 4: kind of necessary, like we need these prices in our line.
- 36:34Speaker 4: That's Parkinson at four to four.
- 36:36Speaker 3: Hockinson you know, probably better suited for Darnold captain teams.
- 36:41Speaker 4: Uh, you know, I don't know.
- 36:42Speaker 3: It's hard to know what his workload's going to be
- 36:44Speaker 3: coming back, and then I'm in a month regardless Hockinson's
- 36:48Speaker 3: in months, probably a low O play.
- 36:50Speaker 4: If Hawkinson's out, month's going to be very popular.
- 36:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with that, and I think you know
- 36:55Speaker 2: the Parkinson's side too. You can talk about it, you know,
- 36:57Speaker 2: just in the flex with or without a stafford and
- 37:00Speaker 2: you still use him. He's forty four hundred priced right
- 37:02Speaker 2: there with the Kickers I think are five and fifty
- 37:05Speaker 2: four hundred on this slate, so you know, something to
- 37:08Speaker 2: be said for that. I don't know how title if
- 37:09Speaker 2: you remember this from it was either like last year
- 37:12Speaker 2: or the year before, Hawkinson's gonna play limited snaps. He's
- 37:15Speaker 2: only gonna play when we need him, and then he
- 37:17Speaker 2: had ten catches ten catch I.
- 37:20Speaker 4: Do remember that. Yeah, that was very painful.
- 37:24Speaker 2: What do you think about that title? And then any
- 37:26Speaker 2: other thoughts at the tight end position?
- 37:28Speaker 6: Yeah, I would.
- 37:28Speaker 5: I would take it because I'm gonna play howk because
- 37:30Speaker 5: he's sandwich right in between both kickers five four five
- 37:34Speaker 5: k Like you mentioned hots five to two gonna project
- 37:37Speaker 5: worse than them. So it's just natural right there. You
- 37:39Speaker 5: really could only need one touchdown and that could outscore
- 37:43Speaker 5: the kickers. You obviously want a little more. But yeah,
- 37:45Speaker 5: I hope that's the case. And again, if he's out,
- 37:47Speaker 5: Johnny Munz would be very popular value and Josh Oliver
- 37:52Speaker 5: would also be fine.
- 37:53Speaker 4: Right.
- 37:54Speaker 5: I agree with a lot of hoops said like Parkinson's
- 37:56Speaker 5: good on that side. Someone did ask about like thoughts
- 37:58Speaker 5: on Long. There's also Davis Allen. Those guys are definitely
- 38:02Speaker 5: gonna be in my pool. The more teams you build,
- 38:04Speaker 5: I think they should be. If they're only playing a couple,
- 38:07Speaker 5: you don't necessarily need it. But I just don't see
- 38:10Speaker 5: any real plays sub one k then Hunter Long and
- 38:14Speaker 5: Davis Allen both tight ends. They did get on the field.
- 38:17Speaker 5: You can tell me if you see any other plays
- 38:19Speaker 5: down there. But last week, sixteen snaps for Long, twelve
- 38:22Speaker 5: snaps for Allen is one catch or two catches enough
- 38:26Speaker 5: more slates than not.
- 38:27Speaker 6: It has not been enough down here.
- 38:29Speaker 5: But if Jefferson goes off for forty, Cooper Cup gets
- 38:31Speaker 5: you thirty, whatever it may be, and it's a Stars
- 38:33Speaker 5: and Scrubs and the mid tier kind of bus. Maybe
- 38:37Speaker 5: that's when two or three is enough for Allen. Again,
- 38:39Speaker 5: it hasn't worked on the stuff. But really, if you
- 38:41Speaker 5: want cheap plays down here, it's really backup tight ends.
- 38:45Speaker 6: Like, it's not Ronnie Rivers.
- 38:46Speaker 5: It's not Brandon Powell, it's not Cody Schrader, it's Allen,
- 38:50Speaker 5: it's Oliver, it's long and good luck.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Yeah. I actually I think tonight comes all down to
- 38:57Speaker 2: which a lot of slaves do. But like specifically about
- 38:59Speaker 2: these punts we're talking about, Tonight's gonna to me, it
- 39:01Speaker 2: all comes down to roster construction and money left on
- 39:03Speaker 2: the table. I just don't eat like a Davis Allen
- 39:06Speaker 2: will pop and show up a little bit because he's
- 39:08Speaker 2: two hundred bucks. Obviously that's more likely to make something
- 39:11Speaker 2: work than a twenty eight hundred dollars month. Even though
- 39:13Speaker 2: we like Munt and just talked about. My point is
- 39:16Speaker 2: it's what you said, sixteen snaps they're getting, then they
- 39:19Speaker 2: gotta get a catch. Then they got a catch or two,
- 39:21Speaker 2: get one that's valuable enough and all of this. And
- 39:24Speaker 2: the thing about a guy like that tonight is it
- 39:26Speaker 2: only fits in the same lineup everybody else has with
- 39:28Speaker 2: that same person, Like, you're not necessarily gonna get a
- 39:32Speaker 2: unique Davis Allen lineup because a lot of them are
- 39:35Speaker 2: gonna fit Cop kyn Justin, Jefferson, Darnold and wherever you land.
- 39:39Speaker 2: And so there's gonna be enough of those combinations that
- 39:41Speaker 2: it doesn't really unlock as much for me as what
- 39:44Speaker 2: you might think. So, yeah, I have a lot less
- 39:46Speaker 2: interest in that tonight, and I'm more like on the
- 39:48Speaker 2: hoop side with or you mentioned it too, But like
- 39:50Speaker 2: if Hawkinson's in, I'm in on him, but I would
- 39:52Speaker 2: still play Munt Even though Hawkinson's in, I'm not gonna
- 39:55Speaker 2: go away from it. It actually just makes them so he's
- 39:57Speaker 2: probably lower owned, and I'm still gonna have more interest
- 40:00Speaker 2: in the kickers. People you know continuously hate on it
- 40:02Speaker 2: and say it ruin Showdown and all this. It's like
- 40:04Speaker 2: literally the game that we play. You know how it works.
- 40:07Speaker 2: You know the quality or no quality of these quarterbacks.
- 40:10Speaker 2: Things break down, the defenses aren't good enough to stop
- 40:13Speaker 2: them in areas they can kick field goals from sixty
- 40:15Speaker 2: yards away now, So I'm not sure why it's so
- 40:18Speaker 2: confusing and mind blowing to everybody, every slate when kickers
- 40:21Speaker 2: just kick fifty yarders all day. It's what they do
- 40:23Speaker 2: for a living. So I'm gonna keep playing them if
- 40:25Speaker 2: they're gonna keep pricing them this way, same way I
- 40:27Speaker 2: play quarterbacks up top if they're not gonna price them
- 40:29Speaker 2: at ten, five hundred and twelve thousand and whatever. They
- 40:32Speaker 2: have the ball every possession, essentially either handing it off
- 40:36Speaker 2: or throwing it, they get the most touches. It's a
- 40:38Speaker 2: fantasy game. So yeah, I'm interested in these kickers still
- 40:41Speaker 2: a little bit more. But I like your Hawkinson call
- 40:43Speaker 2: specifically just because he splits the difference on the two
- 40:46Speaker 2: kickers title, So I do kind of like that as well.
- 40:49Speaker 2: The Vikings kicker is getting tocked up, new Ones is
- 40:51Speaker 2: back with a good take all of a sudden. Yeah,
- 40:52Speaker 2: he's certainly a good kicker here. So we'll give news
- 40:55Speaker 2: his credit when it's due. Shout out to our guy
- 40:57Speaker 2: Bja in the chat man him and real decent nights
- 41:00Speaker 2: last night in the NBA streets. But you know, bj
- 41:03Speaker 2: all the credit to Reo he gave for the showdown streets.
- 41:05Speaker 2: So those guys doing their job out there love to
- 41:07Speaker 2: see that, just crushing it, doing what they do best.
- 41:09Speaker 2: So that was awesome. The NBA is back. We've got
- 41:12Speaker 2: you covered for everything over at Shipping Nation. If you
- 41:14Speaker 2: guys haven't checked it out. I know a lot of
- 41:15Speaker 2: these new viewers here on the MAO Media network, a
- 41:18Speaker 2: lot of sites. We posted from the account the other
- 41:19Speaker 2: day charging seventy to eighty nine bucks a month for NBA.
- 41:23Speaker 2: Only eighty five bucks a month. We're not scared to say.
- 41:26Speaker 2: The price at Shipping Nation gets you everything NFL, College football, PGA, NBA, NHL, MMA, NASCAR.
- 41:33Speaker 2: It's got MLB Showdown. Shout out to our guy BJ
- 41:37Speaker 2: doing all that for the playoffs. He won twenty seven
- 41:39Speaker 2: grand last week on an MLB Showdown slate. His exact
- 41:41Speaker 2: core was on the site. And then you also get
- 41:43Speaker 2: the education courses. You also get the discord and you
- 41:46Speaker 2: get our optimizer ship demizer for NFL, PGA, NBA, MMA, NASCAR,
- 41:52Speaker 2: everything like that. So eighty five bucks a month, best
- 41:55Speaker 2: deal in the industry. Don't even need a code. You
- 41:57Speaker 2: go right to the site and just click the banner
- 41:59Speaker 2: for eighty five bucks in your locked in at that price?
- 42:01Speaker 2: Who kick it back to you, kickers? Does he kick
- 42:03Speaker 2: it back to you kickers? The defense? What do we got.
- 42:07Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, defense, I'll be kind of doing the
- 42:09Speaker 3: same thing. I don't anticipate getting a ton on building
- 42:12Speaker 3: for for there to be scoring in this game, and
- 42:14Speaker 3: you know, defenses can still get there in scoring games,
- 42:16Speaker 3: There's no.
- 42:17Speaker 4: Doubt about it. But I don't know.
- 42:19Speaker 3: Defense just not going to be big for me and
- 42:22Speaker 3: whatever I get, I get. Kicker, though, I think is
- 42:24Speaker 3: interesting because I looked around at a few spots and
- 42:28Speaker 3: obviously ours as well, and you know, we're showing relatively
- 42:31Speaker 3: close ownership between both of these kickers, and I think
- 42:34Speaker 3: it's probably because of the price difference. What it's only
- 42:38Speaker 3: four hundred. Yes, I don't understand. Is it because people
- 42:41Speaker 3: like playing home kickers better? Because it's Rashard guy appears
- 42:44Speaker 3: to be an absolute stud, like he has not missed
- 42:47Speaker 3: all season long. He yeah, maybe it is Riker or yeah,
- 42:54Speaker 3: I don't know, maybe someone in the check And I
- 42:56Speaker 3: don't know. I did watch the Viking Lions Viking games.
- 42:59Speaker 3: I should should know, but yeah, I'm I'm with I'm
- 43:03Speaker 3: going for shards. I have no idea, but fifteen sixteen, fifteen, sixteen, seven, twelve, eleven, like,
- 43:11Speaker 3: so he's been double digits four or five has not
- 43:14Speaker 3: missed yet this year.
- 43:16Speaker 4: Like, man, if the ownership is going to remain relatively
- 43:19Speaker 4: close between the two, I'm going with what are we saying, Ricord.
- 43:23Speaker 2: We say will rocket We're going back to the NHL,
- 43:27Speaker 2: will rocket for He's going to crush for us.
- 43:30Speaker 4: I love it.
- 43:34Speaker 3: I love that. Actually our guy would know, our guy
- 43:38Speaker 3: would know. He goes Tambo's correct, what is it right?
- 43:41Speaker 4: Right?
- 43:43Speaker 5: He typed it out like he probably said it out loud,
- 43:45Speaker 5: like this type.
- 43:46Speaker 2: And like a record, he keeps typing x.
- 43:53Speaker 4: So record.
- 43:54Speaker 3: I'm hoping the ownership remains close between the two because
- 43:56Speaker 3: I'm going I'm definitely going big on our guy, Riker.
- 44:00Speaker 3: I mean, it hasn't missed this year. He's got a
- 44:02Speaker 3: big leg, four or five double digit fantasy point games.
- 44:06Speaker 3: And the other dude, I'm definitely gonna play him too.
- 44:09Speaker 3: But man again, I don't look at you don't need
- 44:12Speaker 3: to go and look at the game logs and the
- 44:14Speaker 3: box scorers, but I do for kickers because I want
- 44:16Speaker 3: to see, like are they getting opportunities? Oh for one,
- 44:19Speaker 3: oh for all, didn't kick one in Week five, made
- 44:23Speaker 3: four out of five, so that was this one good
- 44:25Speaker 3: Week fifteen. But that's the only time he's been over
- 44:28Speaker 3: double digits all season long. So I'm gonna play both,
- 44:31Speaker 3: but I have a strong preference to our guy Riker Nice.
- 44:35Speaker 2: I just got another screenshot here from my guy Danny Pettiford.
- 44:38Speaker 2: I'll let kay Gould get off the hook where I'm
- 44:40Speaker 2: gonna screenshot this one. Tambo is correct, another one, man.
- 44:44Speaker 2: I just keep finding them. They're setting themselves up for
- 44:46Speaker 2: success here title anything you want to add at Kickers
- 44:49Speaker 2: and D's or anything else you want to talk about
- 44:51Speaker 2: with that, if not any other thoughts on the slate.
- 44:54Speaker 2: Now that you sort of put all the pieces together.
- 44:57Speaker 5: We're showing twenty percent or less than all four of them.
- 44:59Speaker 5: I would surprised of Pickers a little bit higher on,
- 45:02Speaker 5: but still all very fair price tags, a bunch of upside.
- 45:06Speaker 5: How do we not go Riker nowadays? So after all that,
- 45:09Speaker 5: so definitely in on him, and defenses are just low owned.
- 45:12Speaker 6: They're pivots down there.
- 45:13Speaker 5: If you don't like backup tight ends, if you don't
- 45:14Speaker 5: like Blake Korham, if you don't like Ty Chandler, well
- 45:17Speaker 5: you got to say money somewhere, you're probably gonna be
- 45:19Speaker 5: clicking on one of those defenses then, so they'll be
- 45:22Speaker 5: in the pool.
- 45:23Speaker 6: I'll be playing all four like usual.
- 45:25Speaker 5: Final thoughts, Well, I came into the show making Puka
- 45:28Speaker 5: and TJ. Hockinson weren't going to play. Leaving the show,
- 45:31Speaker 5: it sounds like I guess the lean is they do
- 45:34Speaker 5: both play. Regardless that Pooka plays, I'm not gonna play
- 45:37Speaker 5: him in the flex or the captain unless Sean McVay
- 45:40Speaker 5: literally came out and said Puka is one hundred percent
- 45:42Speaker 5: ready to go, he's normal. If that's the case, I
- 45:45Speaker 5: would lean into it at low ownership. I don't see
- 45:47Speaker 5: that being the case. Hockinson stuff more important, Johnny Muttin
- 45:52Speaker 5: would become very very popular down there. If Hockinson does play.
- 45:56Speaker 5: I like them sandwich in between the kickers then the
- 45:59Speaker 5: Puka stuff also, like if he's out, I feel even
- 46:02Speaker 5: better about Tyler Johnson as wide receiver four with the
- 46:05Speaker 5: other guys. But even if he's in, I will mix
- 46:07Speaker 5: and match them like you said, but again three three
- 46:09Speaker 5: is very popular. Four to both sides. We'll get some ownership.
- 46:13Speaker 5: Five ones I will be embracing and then always leave
- 46:15Speaker 5: money on the table and show Now, yeah, I.
- 46:17Speaker 2: Like the onslaughts a little bit more tonight because it
- 46:20Speaker 2: is easy just to go four two or three three.
- 46:22Speaker 2: You know that if McVeigh comes out and says I
- 46:24Speaker 2: might go the opposite, we've already established McVay is a
- 46:27Speaker 2: certified liar. So maybe if he says he's one hundred percent,
- 46:30Speaker 2: I'm out. If he says Pooka is probably only gonna
- 46:32Speaker 2: play a little bit, you know, we're just getting them
- 46:33Speaker 2: back into the swing of things. Maybe boost him up,
- 46:36Speaker 2: you know, I gotta play. We got a rocket ship logo,
- 46:38Speaker 2: we got Will rocket Rashard, we got Will Rekers ownership.
- 46:42Speaker 2: Gonna rock it up after the show. I might have
- 46:44Speaker 2: to rock it him up right up to the Captain
- 46:45Speaker 2: slot oop, and this is the guy put the man
- 46:48Speaker 2: on the moon. What do you think?
- 46:50Speaker 3: Definitely shipping it for us tonight. I mean, we gotta
- 46:53Speaker 3: get Will Reiker is getting the job done for the
- 46:56Speaker 3: chip in Nation community tonight.
- 46:57Speaker 4: I'm with you.
- 46:58Speaker 2: Man said he's a beast. Everyone else is in on him,
- 47:02Speaker 2: So I like that call.
- 47:03Speaker 4: I think that's yeah, to be honest.
- 47:05Speaker 3: I mean, just looking at it, people don't dig into
- 47:08Speaker 3: kickers all that deep. They're saying he's fifty four hundred,
- 47:11Speaker 3: that they're seeing this CARDI dude at five k and
- 47:14Speaker 3: man if it's going to be close in ownership, like yeah,
- 47:17Speaker 3: give me our guy rekerd all day long.
- 47:20Speaker 2: Yeah, Kicker captain works in a game like this. Yeah,
- 47:22Speaker 2: I like that. Call nads before we get to the

- 48:28Speaker 2: We're leaving this up monthly. All access. It gets you everything,
- 48:31Speaker 2: so all the stuff we've got shipdemizer, the optimizer for
- 48:35Speaker 2: all these sports. You get all the content, mainslate and
- 48:38Speaker 2: showdown across the board. Best price in the business we
- 48:41Speaker 2: talk about all the time. But the most affordable, most
- 48:43Speaker 2: valuable content in the entire DFS space. This is the key.
- 48:46Speaker 2: Everybody loves that they're getting behind it. If you go
- 48:48Speaker 2: to join the nation, it's very easy to do it.
- 48:51Speaker 2: It's all access, the ninety nine dollars plan. You're getting
- 48:54Speaker 2: it for eighty five. There is better deals the longer
- 48:57Speaker 2: you go. If you want just football, you can get
- 49:00Speaker 2: get the deal on that. You can use the code
- 49:01Speaker 2: NBA fifteen knock down the monthly price a little bit
- 49:04Speaker 2: on either. And then if you want just the data,
- 49:07Speaker 2: we also have it. So you can just get the
- 49:08Speaker 2: projections and ownership, but you don't get the discord and
- 49:10Speaker 2: you're missing out on a ton of the content. The stone,
- 49:13Speaker 2: all the core reports, the player pulls, the slate plan,
- 49:15Speaker 2: the stack rankings, all of that, busting into the next intro.
- 49:21Speaker 2: All right, hoop anything else you want to add or
- 49:23Speaker 2: otherwise you can go.
- 49:23Speaker 3: To FanDuel Men So FanDuel, the pricing is i'd say.
- 49:29Speaker 4: Much softer compared to DK.
- 49:31Speaker 3: We do have Jefferson at sixteen k and then Carol
- 49:34Speaker 3: Williams at fifteen to five, but after that it is
- 49:37Speaker 3: very soft. Donald at fourteen thousand, that's very cheap, Aaron
- 49:41Speaker 3: Jones at twelve very cheap. Cooper Cup at twelve thousand,
- 49:45Speaker 3: very very cheap. So like Donald Jones, Cup, I would
- 49:49Speaker 3: say very underpriced. Jordan Addison at eleven so only one
- 49:53Speaker 3: thousand dollars cheaper than Cup and Aaron Jones. I have
- 49:56Speaker 3: to imagine Addison probably doesn't get much ownership because of
- 50:01Speaker 3: how closely priced he is the next group of guys.
- 50:04Speaker 3: Uh our guy Rocket Rashard Riker Rocket Riker eighty five hundred.
- 50:09Speaker 4: Cardi is also eighty five hundred.
- 50:11Speaker 3: So another situation there where you know, we're just we're
- 50:14Speaker 3: riding with We're riding with Riker tonight, and eighty five
- 50:17Speaker 3: hundred for kickers, that's not bad coming down a little bit, Naylor,
- 50:22Speaker 3: seventy five hundred stands out as a cheap play, but yeah, overall,
- 50:26Speaker 3: just say it's much softer pricing over here than on DraftKings.
- 50:31Speaker 2: Yeah, Kenny knows Pendal sucks rushes over there. That's that's
- 50:35Speaker 2: my line. So yeah, it's certainly true. I don't like
- 50:37Speaker 2: their format. I've been, you know, on record plenty of
- 50:40Speaker 2: times with that. But by the way, stepping it up
- 50:42Speaker 2: in the NBA streets, we talked about having NBA coverage
- 50:44Speaker 2: having some fun with it so far already, I mean,
- 50:47Speaker 2: that is some stuff. They've been putting some good tournaments
- 50:49Speaker 2: up in the NBA streets, So definitely think that's interesting title.
- 50:52Speaker 2: Any final thoughts from you on this slate before we
- 50:54Speaker 2: get out of here, Well.
- 50:55Speaker 5: Fando Puka is five K two, so talk about soft
- 50:58Speaker 5: if Puka is in I mean leave chunks and chunks
- 51:02Speaker 5: of salary. Fade Pooka do something like that to get different.
- 51:05Speaker 5: Defenses will be lower owned on FanDuel, even a wider
- 51:09Speaker 5: gap from Kickers. So if you want to get different there, TJ.
- 51:12Speaker 5: Hockinson feels expensive if he plays nine k if you
- 51:15Speaker 5: want to lean into that other than that, yeah, I
- 51:17Speaker 5: agree with what Hoop said and oh final thoughts talked
- 51:20Speaker 5: about the five ones if you want to get different,
- 51:22Speaker 5: leaving chunks of money. But I personally, usually I don't
- 51:25Speaker 5: build into actives anyway, some weeks I do because it's
- 51:29Speaker 5: pretty obvious.
- 51:29Speaker 4: Today.
- 51:30Speaker 5: Personally I won't be because this Hockins and Pooka stuff
- 51:33Speaker 5: is very very important. But if you think they both
- 51:36Speaker 5: play build like that can always adjust. Tamba always takes
- 51:39Speaker 5: the discord whenning actives are out, which is very helpful.
- 51:41Speaker 6: I appreciate that, Tampa.
- 51:43Speaker 2: Yeah, of course this is interesting, justin coming in with
- 51:45Speaker 2: the goods man. Nothing about this guy, oh captain, Oh,
- 51:48Speaker 2: captain man, this guy's been hanging out with Sidney Sweeney.
- 51:51Speaker 4: Man.
- 51:51Speaker 2: This guy's really getting the job done. So let's see
- 51:53Speaker 2: if you can do it again tonight. We'll talk about
- 51:55Speaker 2: that more over in the discord. We'll have it up
- 51:57Speaker 2: on the site with all the content that goes up,
- 51:59Speaker 2: putting him with you know what do we have. We've
- 52:01Speaker 2: got it all covered for you here. We'll have the
- 52:02Speaker 2: projections and ownership, we'll have the stone, we'll have the
- 52:05Speaker 2: core report, which is going to be Hoop myself title
- 52:08Speaker 2: for cash, and then our guys Scarface as well. Nads
- 52:11Speaker 2: puts his stuff up. Sometimes real comes through in the
- 52:13Speaker 2: clutch bunch of members sharp members was putting stuff up
- 52:16Speaker 2: in the discord Hoops playerpool. My slate plan. We'll have
- 52:19Speaker 2: you guys covered for everything and more when it comes
- 52:21Speaker 2: to showdown. If you want to check out the course,
- 52:23Speaker 2: you can check it out on the site. Just put
- 52:24Speaker 2: your email in get the first lesson sent to you.
- 52:26Speaker 2: This is a good way to get involved if you
- 52:28Speaker 2: are looking to get and get better at dfs and
- 52:30Speaker 2: step your game up. Hoop final thoughts on this slate
- 52:32Speaker 2: before we get out of here.
- 52:33Speaker 3: Yeah, one final thing that I was just thinking about.
- 52:35Speaker 3: So if Pookah's in and TJ. Hawkinson, I mean, we
- 52:40Speaker 3: don't have a ton of stable value now. We had
- 52:43Speaker 3: talked about a wide receiver where you know, we're fine
- 52:45Speaker 3: still playing those rams cheap wide receivers, but there's a
- 52:49Speaker 3: lot of risks there, so maybe like these high end
- 52:52Speaker 3: captain guys like Jefferson and Cupp, their ownership comes down
- 52:55Speaker 3: because there's really not a ton of value. So it's
- 52:58Speaker 3: one thing to know going into night and going into
- 53:01Speaker 3: too roster construction, but it does make it, you know,
- 53:03Speaker 3: more interesting and provides a potential edge.
- 53:06Speaker 4: Definitely, so excited for this game.
- 53:07Speaker 3: And obviously, like we always talked about, we get our
- 53:10Speaker 3: content up nice and early so you're able to digest
- 53:12Speaker 3: it and you get in the discord and ask any
- 53:13Speaker 3: additional questions that you may have.
- 53:15Speaker 2: Yep, that's the plan. It's gonna be good. Check our guys,
- 53:17Speaker 2: Stephen Neighbors. I meant to bring him up earlier. He's
- 53:19Speaker 2: excited for his gear as well on the way, so
- 53:21Speaker 2: appreciate you. Lots of good stuff going over at the Nation.
- 53:24Speaker 2: Check us out ship at Nation dot com. That's gonna
- 53:27Speaker 2: do it for this one guys, for whop title and
- 53:29Speaker 2: for myself to tech and tambo let ship it
