[Music] [Applause] [Music] n [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] n [Applause] [Music] a [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] [Music] alrighty let's get into it shall we greetings and salutations everyone my name is Andrew kiroff and Welcome to our Tuesday waiver wire Q&A for the 2024 fantasy football season as we approach week two again the results of week one concluded last night and as we approach the waiver wire that is going to be running later tonight tomorrow morning we want to go ahead and make sure that we're all on the same page in regards to the potential pickup and or drops that we are making so over the course of today's live stream I'll be answering questions in that regard if in fact you do have a question either type it in the live chat or send it in a super chat it's up to you as to whether or not you need your priority in order to get out of here it's up to you in that regard but when you do include your scoring format half PPR full PPR standard any other additional context as to what kind of League you play in maybe a super Flex maybe a double Flex all of that information in terms of context will make it easier for me to answer your question uh but outside of that I think we're good to go uh it seems like uh a lot of people I've said it in the chat presidential debate or waiver wire live stream question mark yeah um you know there there are more pressing matters and my waiver wire is way more important at this current moment in time okay so first and foremost for those of you joining us welcome hope you guys are doing well uh there's not many of us in here so this will be easier for me to just answer everybody's questions to the best the myability so we're going to go ahead and begin with Dylan Lou who sent in a Super Chat really quickly and he said I'm in a 12 team league in a full PPR Fields Cima Gibbs Garrett wil DJ Ferguson rashy rice I have Jaan Johnson Caleb Williams Naji Harris and tank Dell Etc on my Ben on my bench any moves I should make so considering you lost Ferguson uh the question is is there an opportunity for you to go get you know maybe Isaiah likely if there is I would explore that opportunity uh is there an opportunity to pick up another quarterback besides Caleb Williams maybe you you know swap him for a baker Mayfield considering the upcoming ease of schedule and the potential of him putting up good you know big performances throughout that span of time uh in comparison two Fields you can kind of swap back and forth based on matchup but outside of that I mean you've got a pretty solid roster across the board in my opinion and pretty good depth uh but those are the two questions that I ask back in response to your team just to kind of get yourself in the correct position now I see Mike uh you know I'm going to go ahead and pop up the live chat on screen just so we're all aware okay so uh can I scroll up that far no it doesn't let me scroll up that far anyway Mike said Mason or likely I think depends on if you're a Christian mcaffrey manager if you are a Christian mcaffry manager let's probably in make sure that our running back is insured for the remainder of the season if you're not Isaiah likely is probably the more valuable of the two uh let's see here so Jay says pick two in a full PPR okay listen if we're picking starter sits uh I think we're a little too early but as of this current moment in time I'm playing Nai Harris and Ford Ridley's on my bench uh I'm screwed of the tight end position Maurice what exactly are you screwed over like what you got too many injuries what's the deal J Dobbins are likely I'm good at running back and I have got her yeah it's probably a likely play in this circumstance then unless you think you can get more value out of picking up JK Dobbins and trading him likely is probably your uh your best scenario there does Christian mcaffrey play or not I'm lost uh um so lost in this circumstance I ranked today's running back rankings video in the manner in which I'm assuming that Christian mcaffry doesn't play because they don't need him to beat the Minnesota Vikings and if in fact uh the statements that were made by Kyle Shanahan after the game in the postgame press conference are true in regards to Christian mcaffry didn't feel 100% he was good sometimes and other times he didn't feel great and we didn't want to go you know and and push him to play if in fact those statements are true and he's still not 100% there then Mason will probably end up playing this week now if in fact Christian mcaffry plays fantastic we're throwing him in our lineup and he's an automatic start but I I just wanted to go ahead and rank Jordan Mason today in the running back rankings video just so that we have context as to where he would be lined up against the rest of the field in the absence of Christian mcaffrey uh Tyler Johnson or Parkinson it depends on what kind of a w do you need a tight end or do you need a wide receiver ultimately both will have value because of the absence of Puka AA but it depends if you need wide receiver depth flex play or a tight end on your roster um Bombay Blitz says trade Jordan uh sorry Jerome Ford for Chris Godwin my other running backs are Barkley chimra and Aaron Jones yeah I mean look if you need the wide receiver depth I don't mind it at all let's go wondering if I should bench more or London for flowers this week tomorrow's W wide rankings video we'll give you the answer uh Cima on the bench question mark question mark stop it who would be talking to there's somebody here that somebody said they were benching CRA uh shout out to the commissioner uh nacho okay very well presidential debate okay okay um does Mason does Mason like burrow or jd5 better I don't even know what this is um but burrow versus Jaden Daniels I'll take Jaden Daniels especially this week speak your peace sends in a Super Chat thank you speak your peace says I just tra traded Lamar Jacobs and Pacho for a uh Anthony Richardson Mixon and Kyon Williams okay so you traded the number four quarterback from a number five quarterback then you traded mixon's going to have to live up to it so as of right now because of the Jacob SL you know the scenario with Jordan love missing time I could understand why you made this trade but mixon's really going to have to live up to the potential of Jacobs and Pacho rest of the season for this to work out cuz kirn's going to Anthony Richardson's going to it's just a matter of can mix and compete with these two obviously the first game was relatively promising so going forward we're just going to have to continue to hope that Mixon can stay healthy and uh you know continue to ball out as he did in week one which I don't think is out of the realm a possibility in terms of his consistency all right let me go ahead and scroll down here uh I need to change the chat to the live chat just so it doesn't glitch out on me it just glitched out on me I I broke it I I messed it up oh there we go okay so I shine 101 since Super Chat thank you aan appreciate it says sup Drew rest of season JK dobins or Tai J Spears I think it's relatively simple I'd rather have JK Dobbins rest of the season uh is on the wire my super Flex league as my rb3 PPR uh is Dobbins schedule gets tough after week two thanks listen it doesn't really matter after the the schedule change if he's going to be given somewhere between 12 to 15 potential opportunities per game for the remainder of the Season as a you know I guess part-timer or split share of this backfield he deserves to be on your roster rather than Spears I know that Brian Callahan did come out and say that they want to give Spears more touches but evidently he's still going to be the number two in comparison to Pard and Pard will probably be the the you know the running back that they're going to use in between the tackles and also Pard in my opinion is a better receiving back but nonetheless uh between the two yes I'll still take Dobbins schedule wise again it's just a matter of is this offenseive line and is this offense a whipped enough to take on those matchups I think they'll be fine I'm not too concerned about it as it currently stands why is Lazard not on your waiver wire targets because the video that I posted yesterday was before the Monday Night Football game every waiver wire Monday video is before the Monday night game so that is primarily why otherwise if I was to rank Lazard I'd probably put him ahead of rashed Shahed probably as my number three wide receiver pickup behind Brandon Cooks Demarcus Robinson and it would be Lazard number three drop Keon for or Shaquille for Bowers I had Ferguson yeah I mean you're probably going to need to have to drop one of these two in order to get more tight end depth in this scenario you're probably going to drop Shakir yeah probably I mean even though I don't love it I think you kind of have to and then you pick up the Bowers uh play and then once Ferguson goes onto the out designation you can then put him on your IR and then pick shakure back up uh I need another running back and a full PPR I'm torn between Madison and Bucky Irving does Madison have more upside just nervous about the injury and Raiders offense um listen I think in a PPR format he's just more he's more of a value because you can start him on a weekly basis because of the fact that you know they're going to be in a lot of negative game scripts this year and they're going to give him targets he played more snaps than zamir white so as long as that continues to Trend in that direction Madison has more value in a full PPR format accordingly and otherwise Bucky Irving barely got any es until they were already up 16 to 20 points in that game Logan Fischer says is dle droppable for a guy like rasid shahida Robinson if you need the wide receiver depth I don't have an issue with that uh why is okay so we took care of that answer uh AR15 or stad rest of season I had AR-15 ranked higher anyway in the preseason nothing has changed uh based on their performances from week one nothing has really shifted in my mind in terms of their overall potential of production in that in that kind of circumstance thank you for the question all right let's see here Jamie says which running back can I get for Dobbins and Reed Gibbs tier maybe I don't think so I mean look if if you can find a team that is super desperate that can Overlook the fact that Reed is not going to have Jordan love for the next four weeks potentially even more if you can find a team that can Overlook that uh and you they'll give you Gibbs then by all means take advantage of it otherwise I don't think um yeah I I don't think you'll be able to get a Gibbs level player for that kind of compensation obviously we're trying to sell Reed high off that you know huge performance but um if you're playing in a sharper League I think it'll be difficult to get a Gibbs type player for that kind of compensation let's see s night says end 10 team full PPR League quarterback is Herz running backs is JT Connor Ford javante Warren very well Wright w uh why receivers are ajb Devonte Adams DJ Moore Roman dun flowers makoni tianis Ingram first waiver priority do I pick up Dobbins or likely um considering you have pretty good running back depth already but it never hurts to have an additional okay so here's the thing this is my suggestion I would probably say you're more inclined to pick up Dobbins but if you think you can flip likely for a better running back than Dobbins in a trade then you would do that otherwise I don't have an issue rostering and starting Ingram for the remainder of the Season he's been a top five tight end for each of the last two years he'll continue to maintain within that kind of value Prospect as for likely again you only pick them up if you think and you know for sure that you can flip them in a trade for a running back than Dobbins otherwise Dobbins is most likely the answer because eventually I mean look considering Warren is dealing with an injury javante is in a disaster right now Ford is going to eventually get his workload cut a little bit once we get the return of Nick chub whenever that is uh Dobbins would be the better long-term play because you need that running back depth for potential injuries and/ or bi weeks coming along here would you pick up GD likely or Parkinson uh I mean at this point it's likely and then Parkinson then GD I don't really want to deal with GD at the moment again touch down upside isn't really relevant with his potential up you know yeah within his overall play primarily because it's either Jaylen Herz or sequan Barkley scoring in the Red Zone nobody else and that's kind of been the deal over the course of the last couple years it's either Jaylen Herz or the running back that are going to consistently score those touchdowns Jaylen Wright season uh more like Jeff Wilson Jr season perhaps uh let's he Justin McMillan says I need a running back in a full PPR I'm tone between Madison and okay so we already took care of this one we'll take the Madison overall situation there Brian Thomas Jr must start in four Team league yes should I try to trade Derrik Henry uh for what his coach said I mean you you can take that at face value but I know they're going to run the ball more with him I know that for sure I'm not too worried about it all right Dave I see that you sent in the Super Chat let me goad and answer Dave's question drop D for Chase or chase Brown for Dobbins yeah either of the two I'd be comfortable with if I was to select one of the two I'm probably dropping D before I TR uh drop Chase Brown so yeah that will probably be the guy that I Dro in this circumstance thank you for the question Dave appreciate it all right let's see here we had a rod who says in a 10 team full PPR League I need a flex pick one I mean listen setting lineups on a Tuesday is pretty bold but very well uh between those three options in a full PPR scoring format I'm playing Neighbors this week neighbors is my play against Washington's terrible secondary do I trade Devonte Smith for Marvin Harrison I would yes please what's what's up Ajax I'm going to call you Ajax ajx is just you know it's it doesn't flow off the you know the tongue as easily Jonathan R is up here let me see what he has to say Andrew I need to replace love is Baker Mayfield gonna go uh be good enough I mean what are what other alternative options do you have I mean really at this point um considering the situation you're in I'd say yes his upcoming schedule is pretty nice in my opinion again he plays Detroit this week it's expected to be the highest scoring game they're going to be a negative game script he'll be throwing for the entire time last time against Detroit three passing touchdowns 349 passing yards and in the following weeks after um if I'm not mistaken let me see here if I go ahead and pop this open let's go Buccaneers schedule they have the Broncos then they have the Eagles then they have the Falcons I mean again I think they're all relatively good matchups in terms of secondary play not being the greatest Within These well I would say the Eagles is probably the weakest secondary of the bunch then it would probably be the Falcons second then the Broncos third but nonetheless um I think they're relatively good matchups based on game script going forward for them all right let's see here scrolling back down we had a A-Rod question again thank you ack appreciate that uh we had a question that came in from Leroy who says trade was proposed to me for achan Coleman team offered either Chase Moss or cup Moss uh thanks for all that you do man no problem okay Leroy so here is the okay so as it stands the question is what kind of running back depth do you have to be able to lose aan and what kind of wide receiver depth do you currently have do to where you need one of these players so if it's me right now for for sure I'm taking this Chase and Moss spot right here I'll take these two Chase is going to be a top five wide receiver by the end of the season so I'm still going to believe in that idea and I'm still going to cash in on this right here okay Cooper cup Moss listen between Cooper cup and Chase I there's still a great preference in the in the favor of chasing this scenario for me as the weeks prog again he's going to continue to elevate his overall you know play uh which I'm not too worried about so really in a bubble this is what I what I'll tell you but in a specific in a specific situation where you give me the full context I might have a different answer for you but for now we'll leave it as such Wayne Wayne says Baker redeemed himself I mean I don't think he needed to redeem himself per se he was great last year uh what does it say hey Andrew I went zero RB in this uh this year okay the and only have side backs like Ford and JK very well do you think uh it's good trading Aman ra for pukaa and Marvin Harrison Jr and then swap one of the other wide receivers for olava Higgins for a wide receiver upgrade okay that's a okay hold on there's there's a lot of info there so you're thinking about trading Alan raw to get puka and Marvin Harrison Jr and then subsequently trading puka Naka to go get olve or Higgins um if you need the depth sure but you're in a zero RB like what why would you need to get wide receiver depth if you're already in a zero RB aren't your wide receivers already stacked across the board and additionally if you're going to trade wide receiver like Alan raah away wouldn't you try to get a running back in exchange because of your zero RB circumstance that's the only questions that I have is a reaction to that because I would think in a zero RB scenario you've drafted three stud wide receivers and you really aren't going to play anybody besides them um you know this season I have hen uh so for Jeff Wilson or Madison Jeff Wilson probably but again that that is an insurance pickup it's not really something that is going to be played under the assumption that of course hn is healthy uh obviously hn and moer are both on that like kind of injury thing but they have to be on there considering they play on Thursday they probably won't practice but they'll probably play the game so in this scenario I'm not really using a waiver spot I'd like to keep my continual rolling priority on literally neither of those backs I'll just let it roll uh and then if if they survive the waiver uh running then you go pick them up afterward I don't think I'm wasting my waiver priority on one of those two backs Wilson or Madison in this scenario my other running backs are single Terry and shanet yeah that's pretty rough scenario here but for again as of right now I'm not really wasting the the waiver priority on one of those potential options uh let's here Francisco thank you very much for the Super Chat sends the following should I trade lamb and Ridley for Garrett Wilson and James Cook it's a 14-man and current running backs are Stevenson and Javonte Williams I still have London and Nico Collins I wouldn't make that trade I think it's man look here's the thing I know that you're Des ah you're really desperate for running back huh uh Francisco I think it really depends on what is available at running back off the waivers because I think trading away lamb is going to hurt a lot he he is your your your pillar that is your entire team you invested in him and he's going to be fine going forward sure he didn't score a touchdown this week but you can bet your bottom dollar he's going to start really tearing apart the league in in the next couple weeks here so as of right now I kind of want to keep lamb but if there's nobody else available because of the 14 team format and you're stuck with Stevenson and javante and javante is pretty much a broken leg at this point um you might have to and that sucks but again it's very much so dependent on what is available step Dres thank you very much says uh thanks uh to you I picked up and played Mason and won how bad is Christian mcaffry injury I mean it's bad enough to where they hold him out but I also think the fact that he limited he was limited in practice last week does say that there's progressing signs of him improving otherwise he wouldn't have practiced right also would you Flex Pitman over Ford this week uh Pitman against the Green Bay Packers secondary which again I think you could take advantage of that secondary over Ford versus Jacksonville in a full PPR I probably would um but in a half stand I I don't find myself very much so inclined to do so hey uh hello Andrew low priority on waivers zamir white owner should I try to grab Madison and lock up the backfield also are dowle and hubard droppable dle I don't know if he's Dro I don't think either of those two are droppable look hub's going to be the starter for the next couple weeks if you find yourself looking at at your matchups and thinking I'm never going to use hubard in the next four weeks I don't need to utilize him and you know by the time I do need to utilize him Jonathan Brooks is already going to be back at that point you can then just go ahead and ship hub off D I'm still going to keep just in case in this scenario uh if you'd like to drop hubard and pick up Madison just to lock up that backfield just in case anything happens in the coming weeks I don't have an issue with that at all okay my YouTube chat just broke again uh we're going to get to you know what I'm going to do this really quickly just so I can refresh and make sure that this thing is starting to work again for those of you who are joining us today thank you welcome hope you guys are doing well it's a Tuesday night and we are trying to answer questions before waivers run of course so if you guys have any questions please be sure to go ahead and type it in the chat or send in the Super Chat and make sure to include your scoring fromat it's greatly appreciated additionally if you guys haven't yet already click the like button down below it is greatly appreciated in terms of supporting the channel and continuing the growth of the channel again I think we recently hit 86,000 subscribers again can't thank you guys enough appreciate it okay so questions that were sent in that uh require priority in terms of super chats deadstock says good wide receiver SL tight end have Montgomery and bejan Robinson and need another running back would you drop jsn and AD Mitchell for bsby Bucky Irving Madison or Jaylen Wright Montgomery and beon and I need another running back would you okay so as of right now um out of the group I probably end up dropping between between those two wide receivers you have jsn and AD Mitchell I I feel okay dropping ad Mitchell and picking up tank BBY that I don't have an issue with at all if you had like aan or moer and you were like hey I want to pick up Jaylen wght or Jeff Wilson Jr at that point I'd be okay with it but in terms of depth for long term I think tank bsby works for the drop of AD Mitchell there dead stock thank you Dave sends in a question thank you Dave I appreciate it Dave says in a half PPR in a 10 Team league I have Dak lamb London Smith etn white Andrews rice Brandon Brian Robinson Jr Addison Chase Brown d here any way to improve who do I Target I mean as it currently stands um Brian Robinson Jr had a great week rice was great Andrews is okay but I think it's a matter of giving it a little bit of time and he'll have himself you know decent performances going forward Rashad white is great etn is fine Devon Smith yeah I mean look at this point you've got a really strong base roster your bench are guys that are you know going to have upside D Chase Brown again they're still trying to win their jobs give it some time I wouldn't you know give up on them yet give it like four to five weeks before you you know fully give up on one of these running backs that is still getting 50% of the overall workload in that back field and still trying to uh work for more of it as it currently stands if you're trying to make a huge upgrade I mean the question is do you have an opportunity to go pick up likely if not then really you just stick with what you have I think you've got a pretty strong base of a roster and I'm not trying to trade away any two for ones because I want to keep the depth because that really is where you're strength lies within your team Dave thank you for the question okay so let me go ahead and scroll back down hopefully this live chat wants to work for me okay it is somewhat working yeah somewhat working okay so let me go ahead and pop the the chat back on screen uh considering it is somewhat working shant let me get to your question right now and then we'll continue on with some of the questions that's above that Sean thank you very much he says hey man what do you think about uh who do you think I should drop for Trey Benson corm dle or okay um between all of these options if I'm dropping one of them I'm pretty set at running back and I Resa Pacho and chimra look here here's the thing Benson and corm are purely handcuff options in the case that if in fact we do end up seeing an injury to James Connor or you know kyen Williams they have value until that takes place neither of them have functional value as a starting option so if you're thinking hey I I need to have another Flex option on my bench and there are players like JK Dobbins out there then sure we can drop a Benson and go pick up you know drop corm Benson and go pick up you know Dobbins to give you more depth going forward obviously you're pretty stacked at running back with these three options and they'll pretty much run for you the rest of the season um but yeah if if I'm looking at it currently I'm not dropping Deontay or D I think they have more value these guys are the the lottery tickets and you're either holding them and playing out the lottery or you're selling your ticket and having somebody else pick it up in exchange for depth that you can Implement now that's if you need the implementation of a depth player as it currently stands Charlene says Andrew uh what are your thoughts on alen Lazard he's got a pretty good rapport with Aaron Rogers the last season that they played together was 2022 in Green Bay in that season Alan Lazard and a half PPR finishes wide receiver 32 I'm not saying he's going to be able to accomplish that high of a level of production this season because once Mike Williams getss healthy that will impede his overall potential of upside but I do believe for the next coming weeks here considering Aaron Rogers has a familiarity and of course a report already built with Alan Lazard that is something to keep an eye on and potentially take advantage of for the coming weeks um I mentioned it earlier when somebody asked me why it wasn't Alan Lazard included in your waiver wire video on Monday it's because the video was before the Monday Night Football game before the breakout of Alan Lazard to an extent so if I was to rank him I probably as it currently stands I'd probably even Brandon Cooks is number one between Demarcus Robinson and Lazard I could go 50/50 on it and then it would be Shahid as the number four option after those two um let's see here 10 team full PPR should I start okay start questions again uh we'll be later on in the week as of right now we're just going to try to focus on waiver wire because I haven't even started preparing wide receiver rankings for tomorrow so I haven't even looked into haven't watched the games yet uh for the wide receiver position just yesterday was focused on watching running backs and just skipping all the pass plays just so that I can focus purely on that position so tonight we'll be wide receivers Brian says I want to pick up likely off of The Wire who should I drop for him in a PPR Watson dobs mlin or Ferguson I'd keep Ferguson on roster it's probably I mean whoever Watson is is that Deshawn Watson I mean I don't know what other Watson there is a Justin Watson um Christian Watson if it's Christian Watson we probably keep him and we'll drop dos um yeah that's probably what it is probably Christian Watson we'll drop dobs for likely in this scenario Brian uh should I start the goat Alan Lazard or Brian Thomas Jr probably Brian Thomas Jr as it currently stands hey Andrew in a full PPR is it worth dropping single ter Moss or Sutton for Dobbins longterm um Sutton saw a lot of targets bonix is only going to get better single ter or Moss for Dobbins that's really good question I think in the long term I think I'm depends on what kind of scoring you're playing a full PPR look in a full PPR it gives single ter the advantage because Dobbins is not I mean it's not implied that he's going to get himself a lot of receiving work I mean like single ter is coming off a week in which he had four receptions on five targets if that number continues to stay consistent there it's going to be hard for single Terry not to be a top 30 back in fantasy Zach Moss currently the starter it's tough at this point I I don't want to drop any of those guys do I feel strongly enough about Dobbins to tell you to drop them no and that's why I hesitate to do so okay let's scroll back up here Francisco at a followup says uh Francisco again top thre uh J what is this okay we have Justice Hill Madison Madison as in Alexander Madison with two okay yeah it's not D but it's t anyway uh of those three options okay so let's go back up to Francisco's really quick question Dave we took care of you yeah that's right okay Francisco lamb Ridley 14 team still have these options yeah okay so if those are your available running backs on the waiver wire uh you probably I mean you'd probably go pick up Madison but starting him every week is going to be a disaster so you I mean again you might have to just bite the bullet here and and make the trade and get that James Cook part going for the remainder of the Season which hurts but kind of kind of the scenario you're unfortunately in as it stands um let's see here let me scroll up Palmer or Cooks I'd probably rather have Cooks as of right now considering the Ferguson injury olave or Monty for Wadd olave and Monty for Wadd uh no I'd rather have a and Monty I think I think I Mis phrased the question earlier I meant after receiving puka and Marvin Harrison Jr do you think I should trade ol oh I understand now or Higgins for a running back upgrade yes cons well here's the thing is it smarter okay so here here's my okay legitimate suggestion considering puka is going to be on the injured reserve and Higgins is still injured you cannot trade Marvin Harrison or olve neither of them are coming off of big weeks here so if you were to sell them in a trade you're pretty much getting Pennies on the dollar of value based on where they were drafted so in this scenario that you've painted for me puka goes to your IR Higgins is still injured so you could technically try to sell Higgins for running back value but you're not trading Marvin Harrison or olve until either of them have big performances to where you can sell them to the value that they're actually at rather than what they're currently sitting at with a Downs slope of a you know pretty terrible week one performance thank you for the clar clarification sorry if I misread the question that maybe that was on me probably was on me I try to read these questions so fast that half the time I don't even know what I'm saying uh question start Raheem moer Joshua Palmer tank bsby or Curtis Samuel or Chris even okay no I'm not I'm not interested in starting any of the wide receivers for the Green Bay Packers outside of jayen Reed um again with with Malik Willis it's not going to be pretty Curtis Samuel didn't play much still dealing with that injury tank bsby doesn't have much PPR upside Josh Palmer or Raheem moer don't love either either of them because moer again is still dealing with an injury and is on a short week so mayy less snaps and Joshua Palmer he he dropped a touchdown so maybe if he catches one this week could be of value I mean that that's probably the best play of the bunch unfortunately in a full PPR format let's see here will 825 Liam games thank you very much William appreciate it full PPR 10 team or sorry 10 person League got a deal to trade Devonte Smith and Jordan Mason for Rashi rice they have Christian MCA should I do it I have JT and Connor I honestly think I would like to get more out of the trade that being said I do believe that in a full PPR Rashi rice is probably an upgrade from Devonte Smith that being said it's not that much to where I'm like you're you're making a fantastic trade you're fleecing I'm like I want something else I don't know what it is but I want maybe I want more like obviously because it's the Christian mcaffrey Man manager uh they value Mason the most so unless they have any other wide receiver option that you can go after if that's the best deal you can get I don't have an issue with it I I do I do believe that Rashi is going to be a upgrade to Devonte in a full PPR format especially considering he's the number one receiving option technically as of this current moment in time for his respective offense but I would have loved a little bit more than just Rashi but still good value um let's see here Chris says would you start Fields over Stafford this week Fields against Denver or Stafford against the Cardinals I probably end up playing well huh look again I haven't even watched film yet for quarterbacks again this is generally for waiver wire questions but as it currently stands if I was just objectively tell you right now in a bubble who I'm starting I probably end up playing fields what we Andy Dalton going to be the starter for what for the Carolina Panthers never unless there's an injury he'll never come in um let's see here where is this next question moss and Godwin for Adams and Stevenson yeah I'll take the Adams and Stevenson side I don't have an issue with that sounds good to me any recommendations that I should do with Jamar Chase I want to trade him but I don't know what if you're going to trade Jamar chase you better get Justin Jefferson back Alan Ross Brown back hey AJ Brown if you don't get a first round pick in exchange for Jamar Chase you've made a mistake right that's that's kind of the objective truth of it I drafted him in the top seven eight I better get back a value player that is in that range now if you're getting back multiple players in exchange then it becomes a little bit trickier as to what kind of a suggestion I make based on obviously you need a wide receiver in return but also more compensation on top of that uh let's here Smooth Criminal says trade pits and Pard for King Cade jaon and Swift trade pits in par for k k javante and [Music] Swift okay so here's the deal pits and King Kade preseason value back toback as for trading PA for Swift and javante javante is in the doghouse right now for me at least that was one of the worst weeks I could have potentially ever saw javante you know producing additionally Swift decent opport but it was severely outplayed by parul's efforts if you need the running back depth you make the trade because overtime javante and Swift will be of more value and service to you especially with Spears getting more touches going forward but as it stands pits and Kade are identical value it's just a matter of which of the running back combos you prefer if you need the depth you take the depth otherwise you you just hold Pard Watson or Shahed probably Shahed until again with Jordan love out you know Watson's is not really a startable option I was going to pick Mason uh but my opponent has uh but my opponent he has Christian mcaffrey but I need to find a replacement for puka interesting um why don't you pick up M well look the question is the only reason I guess in your scenario you would ever pick up Mason is if you can trade him to the guy that you're playing this week and steal a wide receiver off of his team that otherwise yeah you're kind of stuck in a position to where you probably need to Prior has wide receiver because of your puka situation there unfortunately uh let's see here scrolling down after Smooth Criminal we have Justin thank you Justin says in a full PPR Justice Hill or Alexander Madison off of my uh waiver probably Alexander Madison Justice Hill again uh he had himself a pretty solid week in week one but that's primarily because again they were in a negative game script and they were throwing the ball 42 times in that game often times the boltim Ravens don't even get you know near that number and they won't for the remainder of the Season until they get into games in which they are of course pushed to the Limit or going to straight out lose which again the Baltimore Rens don't lose very many games throughout the season the Vegas Raiders are implicated in nearly probably being underdogs for the remainder of season every game we'll have to wait and see but Alexander Madison has more value than a full PPR as it currently stands how are we feeling about chuba hubard uh a dart throw late rounds but uh looking for insight as of right now not looking great if that Carolina Panthers offense doesn't significantly improve like sooner rather than later uh we may never see any legitimate value out of chuba hubard until of course the return of Jonathan Brooks and by the time Jonathan Brooks returns he's just going to outright take the job because of how poorly poort you know chuba hubard and my sanders are playing but again I I wouldn't even blame chuba hubard like the offensive line was getting throttled because they're just stacking the box and saying hey go ahead try to beat us with your arm Bryce young you're not capable let's see here scrolling down to elements thank you elements says in a half PPR 10-man League two Flex uh running backs very well okay two Flex running backs are JT James Cook Gibbs moster Chase my wide receivers are Allen dos cup flowers John what is this Josh Palmer is getting Mason with the number one waiver a good idea okay so here's the thing in your scenario considering the running backs you have on roster I would suggest one thing only you would only ever pick up Jordan Mason if you were going to flip it and trade it to the Christian mcaffrey manager if you do not believe that there is a possibility in which you can do so and get enough value back I would probably suggest you hold your number one waiver spot because in future weeks there's probably going to be other injuries and other scenarios in which you are going to need to hit the waivers and having the number one priority for the remainder of the Season until that moment arises is probably going to be of value to you so unless you can flip the Mason pickup for an actual commodity that you can trade for with the Christian mcaffry manager or somebody else that's interested it's probably in your best interest to hold which again it's tough to hear in week one but again you got to remember it's a marathon Christian mcaffrey for Mixon and tank no I'd rather just hold Christian mcaffry there uh Doan let's see here okay scrolling down pick up likely for Jalil if you're going to drop Jalil mlam that's fine I mean I don't love it he touched the ball 15 times which is I mean ridiculous but hey I mean you need the tight end upgrade so you might as well I mean if that's the worst player on your bench I think you're in a pretty good spot Dynasty how much Fab are we dropping unlikely in Dynasty I think it's different than in a redraft I think in a redraft in order to okay look in a redraft right now I think that there is an objective truth that if you legitimately want to for sure get him you're going to have to spend 30% of your fap which is a ridiculous number but I think that is probably what it's going to take because it's still week one and because of perhaps a lot of the overreactions that are going to occur because of the tight end position playing poorly again you got to remember guys like Mark Andrews Travis Kelce Evan Ingram Dalton King Cade all played poorly additionally guys like Jake Ferguson David and joku did not play well I mean shoot even lorta didn't have a good week so because of all of that there may be an in you know an increase in the potential of someone saying Hey listen likely's young Mark Andrews is getting old in a dynasty League I'm going to spend even higher than that don't be surprised but in a redraft I think 30% is probably going to be the the average number that we see tonight after it runs which is pretty pretty crazy but at the same time I don't blame everyone for you know freaking out because again when you play one fantasy league you don't watch too much fantasy you don't watch too much football overreactions happen and you know I'm here to help even if even if you do spend 30 on a tight end of that caliber because it could end up ping out you never know he may end up being a top you know five six tight end by the end of the season and it's all worth it maybe even more you know Cory Miller thank you says I hate my team after week one I have Goff Conor Aaron Jones Ford Alman ra London olve KD Bucky Keon Coleman I'm in a 12 team league would you s what do you suggest that I do how can I make this team better I'm going to be honest you don't have that bad of a team bro I don't know what you're talking about you gotta okay sure Alman Ros Brown Drake London Chris olve they did not play well but do you think that's going to be a consistent thing for the remainder of the Season objectively ask yourself do you have to just look in the mirror and be like do I actually believe that Alan Ross Brown London and olve and KD are just going to be bums for the remainder of the year if you think that's the truth trade them all away get rid of them tonight start hot cake selling but I'm telling you objectively you just got to chill you got three great running backs all of them scored double digit fantasy points all of them found the end zone via rushing touchdowns KD's still fine he's going to have up and down weeks like he does every season gof may have not had the greatest game but that's what you drafted you drafted G Jared Goff you didn't draft Anthony Richardson so there's a huge difference there outside of that don't worry about your wide receivers man the panic I understand it I can empathize with it but be realistic all right Dave sends it a question says I asked earlier but I just wanted to make sure very well drop Chase brown or D yeah between the two it's probably dropping Dole in this scenario for Dobbins or likely both okay yeah let's do both I mean I don't think you're going to get both but in this scenario uh uh what it say have Andrews or just sit tight ah I see what you're saying Dave let me go let me I me I need to find your question Dave from earlier just so that we're on the same page so Dave you said you're in a half PPR that's your team you have Mark Andrews any way to improve this team so considering your scenario considering you have etn Rashad white Brian Robinson Jr Chase Brown d and then you additionally have the opportunity of getting Dobbins or likely if I'm you I probably just go get likely unless you can unless you could objectively say that you you can pick up Dobbins and then flip him in a trade I don't think you need the running back depth based on looking at your roster right now so it probably is dropping someone like d in order to pick up Isaiah likely there Dave thank you XF Franklin says I have puka AA and Christian mcaffrey I need Mason or JK Dobbins uh in this scenario it's tough because you want them both but you need to ensure the security of your number one investment of Christian mcaffrey and unfortunately because you didn't have him on roster before you are now at the mercy of having to utilize your waiver spot in order to get him so in my opinion if it's me if it's my team I'm securing the insurance of my running back because even after Christian mcaffry returns there's nothing that says that he won't reinjure or re-aggravate the injury to where Mason is going to fill into his position and continue to be a 20-point running back considering of course how great he played last night and how he'll continue to play well with all the talent that Stacks around him so you're kind of you're in a position to where you have to pick up Mason unfortunately um let's see here what does it say how Bradley did I mess how badly did I mess up uh drafting Trevor Lawrence over Jaden Daniels yeah it's a pretty big O pretty big oof to say the very least um Joe says would you trade Devon Anan for Dobbins and Jordan Mason sorry dobs excuse me I'm assuming you meant Dobbins though because it's not going to be like yeah it's going to be dos Dobbins excuse me uh no I'm I'm Gonna Keep hn until the day that it the House of Cards fumbles and crumbles um in your scenario Joe probably go pick up either Jeff Wilson Jr or Jaylen Wright that probably be your insurance policy pickups just in case of course nothing to say that it's going to be a problem Powerhouse sends in a Super Chat says how much Fab on Dobbin worth as it currently stands I think it depends on what you need if he's going to be your immediate starter I'm willing to spend upwards of 30% legitimately uh if you're going to be in a position to where um you know that other people are going to be spending that much you might have to push even further than that but at that point you may be over investing with 100 total Fab 40% is a little overzealous I think I think in order to secure it it's like 25 to 30% maybe even 31% just to be sure but I think that is the range um if you in a position where you have depth and you don't need Dobbins then why spend the 30% when you can hold it for another player because injuries will happen for the remainder of the season but yeah if you're in desperate need of a running back you're like Hey listen I've got javante and I got Swift and I'm in trouble then maybe we can go ahead and uh take the Dobbins play for maybe somewhere between 25 to 30% depending on what you know your league mates are going to do and how typically they react like if I'm you I go back to last season's League I go into transaction trends and I go and I go back to week one of last year and I see how much people bid on Kiren Williams and then correlate that to potentially what the numberb is going to be this week out of Dobbins Steph Drake says I have both hen and moer in a half PPR would you pick up Jaylen Wright yes you probably should Jaylen Wright and even maybe uh Jeff Wilson Jr to be honest okay um let's see here scrolling down Joe follows up and says would you trade Devon Anan for JK Dobbins oh yeah we already answered that question so yeah I wouldn't I keep Devon hm Diego says should I send Mason and burrow for Allen to the Christian for Allen like as in as in Josh Allen or Keenan Allen because there's a huge difference if you're going to get Josh Allen in return yes please and thank you should I be worried about burrow I saw a video earlier today uh Brian that unfortunately didn't look great um during that game because I mean I literally only watched the running back rushing attempts yesterday I haven't even watched burrow himself in the throws that he made or even the wide receiver play uh there was a lot of wrist moving for burrow didn't look comfortable out there which is a little bit concerning but again the Bengals start slow expect them to start two 0 and two and then in week three they're going to get back on track um let's see here where art thou raising Souls says would you trade rice for Marvin Harrison Jr I probably would uh I understand that there is a little bit of a hesitation SL risk to it if you don't feel able doing it and your heart's not fully in it don't do it but me personally I I do believe in the talent of Marvin Harrison okay let's see here should I pick up Mayfield or jadden Daniels it's Jaden Daniels rushing upside in a four-point per passing touchdown league is the Pinnacle of success for Fantasy should I trade Christian mcaffrey and Lamar Jackson for AJ Brown Kenneth Walker and Caleb Williams I don't want Kenneth Walker so or sorry not Kenneth Walker I don't want Caleb Williams what is this Caleb Williams is not going to do anything for me you can't start him so in this scenario you're basically like at the mercy of whatever is available at in your waiver wire I mean again it depends on what's available do you have Jordan Mason are you trading him away because you don't have Jordan Mason what's the deal here more context is probably required in this scenario okay let's see here okay before I continue to answer some of these questions which I will want to thank you guys for joining us today again uh just going to be live streaming here for the probably the next I don't know 30 minutes or so answering as many questions I can prior to the Waiver Wires running tonight if you guys haven't yet already do me a favor click the like button down below additionally if you guys have not checked

patreon all of the content that is available there again is is all of that I'm offering in this scenario and much more so if you're interested there's links down in the description to both of those thank you very much for the support I appreciate it okay so let's go ahead I know that Jonathan just sent in a question let me answer that question then we'll continue on with some of the prior questions that were sent in 12 men one point per reception we have Jaylen Herz Jamir Gibbs Devon Anan AJ Brown Amari Cooper King Cade Palmer worthy Warren Chase Brown Korum Tamm Hill pulk Wright drop 30 Fab unlikely if not who do I drop and add I don't know what's available in your league but considering your starting tight end is concade I don't think you need to drop 30 Fab unlikely unless you're in a scenario in which you're like I'm going to get likely and then flip him for an improvement on an alternative position so for example if you're going to say hey Andrew I don't like Amari Cooper as my wide receiver too what I plan on doing is spending 305 Fab on likely then taking likely taking Amari Cooper and then upgrading a wide receiver I would say two thumbs up let's go for it or or picking up likely getting likely getting worthy going after another wide receiver that's the only reason that I would say you're sending it because otherwise I'm keeping can K as the starter going forward is Wix droppable as long as again considering there's no Jordan love I would say yes as of right now what trade value do you think I can get out of Kiren or Josh Jacobs Josh Jacobs I think it'll be a little bit more difficult to sell at the moment considering of course Jordan love is going to be missing a significant volume of time uh Kyon Williams don't trade him do not trade him if you're going to trade him you trade for a top tier running back legitimately you you can't trade for anything less if you're going to trade Kiron and you're going to ask for a running back in return you better be getting someone of the caliber that is in that top tier conversation you better be getting back bejon Bree Hall Jonathan Taylor saquon Barkley you got to get one of those otherwise I don't even want it don't want it uh Andrews or likely this week wait till Wednesday sorry Thursday's video quarterback and tight end rankings will'll have that answer thank you very much um okay scrolling up we had Cameron Kaplan who sent in a question let's go ahead and answer Cameron's question which Rams wider receiver Whittington rased Shahed also available um no I'm not picking up Whittington I would much rather pick up Demarcus Robinson or um Tyler Johnson th those are the two and it would be in that physical order Demarcus Robinson one Tyler Johnson 2 wington would not really be on my radar in this scenario um so yeah Demarcus Robinson if not him I'll just take Shahed or Alan Lazard what's your thoughts on K rest of season he'll be better he'll be better again listen last season he had 74 receptions on 90 targets so the idea of him getting back into a position to where he's going to get very similar numbers is not out of the realm of possibility especially considering again there is no Stefon digs hog of targets that is going to be garnering 10 to 12 per game so with those overall opportunities spread out to the remainder of the offense there is more opportunity for King k to have viability on a consistent basis I understand week one was a you know bum week but look at the entire board not a single one of these tight ends had a compelling performance outside of the three tight ends in fantasy who scored over 10 fantasy points only again only three it was Isaiah likeley who were all trying to get after Foster Maro and Kyle pittz outside of those guys Kelsey Andrews Ingram canade McBride en joku um Ferguson Godard Schultz tesm all of them bums so don't worry week one not the greatest tie end week but week two will be better I can assure you that and if it's not we're we're all we're burning it down uh let's see here hey Andrew what do you think I can do to improve my team uh from the waiver wire my leag is at full PPR and I'm uh my starting team is Jaden Daniels saquin Gibbs cup Pickins Kelce and Montgomery the flex is Higgins and zamir white as of right now I probably look to try to see if you can get JK Dobbins if you can if he's available off your waivers again I don't know what is available on your waivers don't really have the context to that but I think if you were to pick up doin it wouldn't hurt you I mean obviously you're not going to start him over Gibbs or saquin but in terms of you wouldn't even start him over Montgomery really you don't even need to pick him up unless you're going to trade him that's really it that would be it otherwise I'm not picking up likely I I start Kelsy for the remainder of the Season here and it's a pretty strong team across the board Pickins is your Wiest link but even then he saw pretty good usage with Justin fields which I really didn't anticipate to see uh let's see here do I use what the heck does it say wait wait where did it go message retracted all right well standard chimra Dobbins etn or Aaron Jones need uh one great sir what do you mean need one are you starting one or are you benching one what's the deal waddle on Thursday I have Debo Pitman yeah we're going to play waddle that's not an issue Debo probably plays again this week but Waddle's your number two of the available options you have there Jonathan let's he Timothy thank you very much says where does Lazard rank in waiver priority and is chuba droppable chuba is droppable ask for waiver priority amongst the wide receivers under the assumption that Brandon Cooks is available he's number one if somehow Jameson Williams is available he's number one so Jameson one Brandon Cooks 2 Alan Lazard Demarcus Robinson are tied for three4 five would be Shahed six would then be an amalgamation of a bunch of available options that you can decipher through but ultimately it's probably like vond Del Robinson as the next man up that's kind of the order that I'm I'm thinking of off the top of my head would you keep Dustin Hopkins or pick up Boswell I'm okay picking up Boswell until that offense for the Cleveland Browns is significantly better I'm not really interested in uh you know sending out their kicker there they looked I mean they looked terrible obviously it was the matchup but um I'll give it a a couple weeks before I I send the kicker back out there Andrew said should I be worried about auk and burrow auk I'm not worried about burrow they start slow it is a it's just a common yearly occurrence the Bengals haven't won a game in week one or two since 2021 so they're going to start slow they're not going to have a great week this week maybe look for an alternative option to start instead of burrow this week then henceforth after that we can start to reimplement him back into the starting lineup based on the matchups uh but as for auk no worry again we we anticipated him to be at a lesser State because he missed all of training camp and of course I mean the guy wasn't even supposed to play full snaps he was supposed to be limited in that game so I'm not too worried about BR at all I mean again he dropped a touchdown otherwise you'd be celebrating right uh Andrew Clark sends in a question says I have de DeAndre Hopkins and pulk as in jayen pulk should I drop both or one of them for dorge Cooks wand Robinson uh V Lazard Tyler Johnson and okay Indianapolis or Chief's defense rest of the season I'm not going to objectively say one defense over the other but if I was to pick between the two I'd rather have the Chicago Bears defense rest of the season as for this upcoming week I'd rather have Indianapolis Colts defense that being said um as for your prior question here DeAndre Hopkins pulk I'm willing to drop pulk and probably go pick up someone of the caliber of cooks if you can do so otherwise DeAndre Hopkins is probably a keep as it currently stands he didn't really play much obviously still dealing with that injury once he's able to get back to a full status um I wouldn't want to drop him because I don't want to miss out on the potential value that kind of revolves around him in this scenario um let's see here do I use my first waiver pick on J or JK Dobbins or Allan Lazard or likely team is Kyler Pacho Kenneth Walker JJ M mhj cup pits I mean really you don't need anything like your team is so ridiculously stacked but if I'm in your scenario here if I'm in your position I'm either picking up Jameson Williams or JK Dobbins with Kyle pittz there I don't think you need Isaiah likely unless you're going to pick up likely to trade him I don't think you need Lazard so it's either Jameson Williams or JK Dobbins and considering what you have available on roster uh I'm probably more inclined I mean your wide receivers are not going to change JJ Marvin Harrison and cup are going to start every effing week Kyler or what is it Kenneth Walker Pacho and Brian Robins junor oh if it's me I probably end up picking up what's the format if it's like a half PPR I probably pick up the running back and in Dobbins if it's a full PPR I probably go after J there all right GV I'm GNA answer your question here in a second let's go ahead and do that GV says Ford or J Jaden re in a full PPR 19% frb unlikely yeah listen I don't know if that'll get the job done I think you'll probably need more um but go for it if that's if that's where your limit is go for it I I think you'll probably need more though especially if you are competing with somebody who has Mark Andrew on your on their team or if somebody has like Dolton Schultz like they went ahead and they drafted no tight end and they're like yo I need one this is it I'm I'm dropping the I'm you know unloading the mag on it otherwise for your primary question Ford to read I'll probably end up playing Ford this week uh let's here failures no option thank you very much for the generous Super Chat says team is a full PPR I have Kyler Murray Ken Walker David Montgomery Garrett Wilson Marvin Harrison Jr McBride bench consists of Swift Addison Brian Thomas Jr Jordan Mason radun and Zeke where can I improve I mean as it currently stands the fact that you have three Arizona Cardinals scares the crap out of me uh because they're very much so reliant on the fact that Kyler stays healthy if anything happens obviously we're in shambles uh and your season's over that being said David Montgomery's fine Kenneth Walker's fine under the assumption that he's healthy if in fact you have an opportunity of picking up Zack shanet I would suggest you do so this week additionally you're probably looking to trade Jordan Mason to the Christian mcaffry manager in order to try to get a running back or wide receiver addition to your team you don't need to in you know improve on quarterback or tight end you've got top eight options at both positions it's just a matter of trading Jordan Mason to get additional depth at one of the wide receiver or running back positions and then also try to see if you can pick up um someone like Zack sharan so if I'm you I take Mason I take one other player I go to the Christian mcaffry manager I send a two for one trade tried and improve and then with the one available bench spot I'm picking up Zack shonet tonight if in fact you don't want to waste a waiver on it because you think he'll still be available at 3:00 a.m. once waivers run then you can wait for that Andrew would you trade up um let's see here and be topheavy or have depth throughout the year I'm always about depth I think depth is I mean it's so vital unless you think okay look here's the thing depth is only super valuable when you play in a in a extremely deep League when I'm talking about like 12 teams to 14 teams not too many bench spots you need to have applicable depth that can jump in at any given moment if you're playing in a league in which you're in a eight team 10 Team league you don't need depth topheavy and just blast teams every week that's how you got to play it but that's only in team in leagues where you have eight to 10 teams apologize for the profanity I just it felt highly necessary in that moment Robert let's see your full PPR waivers Dobbins or Mason again you're only going to pick up Mason if you can 100% guarantee that you can pick him up and immediately trade him to the Christian mcaffry manager for an improvement if you are the Christian mcaffrey manager then you're just picking him up outright hey Andrew thanks for all the advice and help would you start between Gibbs chimra and Dobbins this week half PPR uh Flex currently Reed beautiful Hey listen uh this is a great question I posted a video earlier today in regards to my top 40 running back rankings for week two of the 2020 24 fantasy football season do me a favor go check out that video click the like button down below and subscribe to the Channel all right but no seriously I did post the video if you want My reasonings on it you can go ah hit that but otherwise it's Gibbs and Chima as your your two starting running backs probably flexing Dobbins in that scenario their handle LJ what's up says Andrew one three out of four my week once consider yourself lucky LJ consider yourself lucky that is not a commonality uh Mr TR Soso says Stafford Baker or fields and Deontay Johnson or Sutton I'll take Sutton as of right now uh between Baker and Fields and Stafford are you filling in for Jordan love if that's the case I probably just take Baker there and I'd ride with him if you're just looking for just hey I want a backup rest of the way I'll pick up fields I would have said Stafford if puka was healthy legitimately but that's the biggest issue that I have is that he doesn't have puka and they play Arizona this week which they're going to be running the ball down their throat um let's see here should I pick Ronnie Rivers up over Blake korm probably not because if in fact Kyon was to ever go down korm would be the next man up it wouldn't be Rivers would you drop Keenan Allen for Alan Lazard no no I wouldn't especially with the Roma dunesday dealing with a knee injury I wouldn't 11 targets for Keenan Allen kind of something I don't want to ignore I look for another alternative option for a drop we love the profanity you may but we is a blanket statement you know what I mean I have Kiren Jerome Ford Byron Robinson and Aaron Jones my wi receiv room consists of CD lamb rashy rice Cooper cup leaport is my tight end with t DJ in the IR I'd like to trade Jerome before he's AR uh okay if you're going to trade Jerome Ford you go and try to are you going to try to trade for a running back if you're going to try to trade for an like a a running back in exchange you're going to go after players that didn't perform well if you're going after wide receivers you're going after players that didn't perform well but you're also going after teams that don't have running back depth like you go find the manager that has Jerome Ford javante Williams DeAndre Swift and you go and say hey look I have this very pretty piece his name is Jerome Ford and he's going to continue to put up these numbers look at Andrew's video he said it all offseason Jerome Ford last season was averaging you know close to 12 fantasy points per game and a half PPR over the course of weeks third three through 17 when he was healthy and that was also while splitting touches with Kareem hunt and it seems like there's no Kareem hunt in this back field so as it currently stands there's a lot of value there try to sell it to one of those guys try to see if you can get a wide receiver or running back P depending on what you need in return because again you're pretty stacked across the board don't really look like you need a wide receiver it's it's Pro I mean you really don't need either of the positions but you'll take whatever you can get all right let's see here KB thank you very much says saquon is my rb1 JT is my rb2 should I trade JT uh for an upgraded wide receiver dude if you're going to trade JT you better be getting back stud wide receivers I mean I'm talking about first and second round wide receivers that were selected like if you're going to trade JT get back Garett Wilson in a full PPR outside of that um really shoot like what are we doing right otherwise no if you're going to make it a one for two where you're getting two wide receivers back I better be getting back Drake London and Chris ol something like that I better be getting back a stack of of monsters otherwise I don't really want to sell JT unless I'm getting back a pretty dominant you know victory in terms of the fashion of the trade drop MTH for Parkinson I don't have an issue with that assuming you need to start Parkinson this upcoming week I don't have an issue with that uh Rai these free agents Lazard cooks and uh D Robinson yeah Cooks would be number one most likely Demarcus Robinson would be two and then Lazard would be three the only reason Demarcus Robinson sits ahead of Lazard is because Mike Williams will get more utilization going forward and so will Garrett Wilson more targets therefore Lazard will eventually kind of filter out uh Demarcus Robinson will still continue to have value in the absence of Puka and even when puka nakua returns there may be an opportunity in which he could once again unfortunately reag gravate the PCL injury and then miss more time so then Demarcus Robinson continues to maintain his value Kevin Smith says he says we as well all right I understand okay so this I'm just going to start ripping off you know bombs no I'm just kidding uh I appreciate it thank you guys Christopher says uh drop the moo for Parkinson yeah again like I mentioned earlier we'll make that move especially assuming this is your starter like if you're going to need to start him this week let's do that let's do it now and and let's not have to worry about it for the future uh Julian thank you very much for the Super Chat says CD Lam auk and McBride only accumulating 20 points wrecked me this week yeah I know that's that's rough but I can assure you just just remember last year okay I'm telling you just give it a couple weeks auk was averaging 14 points per game McBride was averaging 11.8 points per game cidi lamb was averaging 19 no sorry 20 and a half points per game and these are all half PPR numbers it's only more accelerated in a full PPR they're going to be better CD lamb last season was averaging over 20 fantasy points per game per week so it's a it's a rough look Julian but it's just week one it was the fourth preseason game of the season uh the quarterback I mean look it's one of the lowest scoring week ones of all time let me go and actually look this up really quickly I know that the broadcast on Monday night did say that it was the uh fifth lowest passing yards in the last 20 years of the NFL season in week one but I also want to check in terms of total touchdowns scored um how many touchdowns were scored in that game for the Jets the Jets scored three and how many touch Debo scored one uh Mason scored one let me see uh NFL how many touchdowns were scored by the 49ers total as an offense I'm not talking about special teams or defense or anything like that um let's here they scored two okay so the Jets did score yeah three got it okay so in this scenario that's five touchdowns um so 71 yeah that's that's not bad that's it's closer to 2022 imagine 2023 Week 1 61 touchdowns scored this year 71 so imagine how terrible week one of last year was and we're complaining now imagine um we'll be fine just give it time thank you all right let's see here M manyi sends in a question M many says drop Deontay Johnson for Lazard Shahed Robinson or Madison I'm not going to drop him for Madison if you're going to drop Deontay Johnson you better get a wide receiver in return I'm probably leaning towards either Robinson and or uh Lazard kind of up to your preference as to what you believe between the two I'm kind of leaning towards Robinson uh but if you like the idea of Lazard and and the report that he's already built with Rogers in the past I don't have an issue with that uh yeah dropped the f bombs I mean listen man uh I don't like doing it but it is what it is what are your thoughts on Marvin this week they play against the Rams he should be significantly better let's just let's just put it that way if it's listen I am knocking on every door this week and asking if they want to trade Marvin Harrison before it you know before the performance that will make him an untradeable piece occurs which will happen in due time been an hour with the same question LOL please help Andrew sorry kamakazi kamakazi says in a half PPR I have Richardson Pitman London Bree Hall Josh Jacobs actually let me throw this on screen so I don't have to read the whole damn thing out loud um kamakazi question okay uh Deon Johnson Myers uhuh who should I Target on the waiver to improve wide receiver running back I mean as it currently stands considering you have Pitman London Bree Jak uh single Terry de Johnson listen if if I was in your spot I probably end up trying to go and get um yeah if I'm in your position kamakazi and Dobbins is available I'll take Dobbins if Dobbins is not available and the next best available player is potentially Brandon Cooks I mean I think you can pass on it and just continue to build up the waiver priority if it's a Fab League then at that point I'm okay putting a bid in for potentially maybe like 5% maybe 6% maybe seven if if you're feeling spicy tonight and dropping like you know one of these other potential options for him for Cooks but outside of that not really too interested um let's see here has Isaiah likely sorry have Isaiah likeley need running back depth what are the backs I should Target that are realistic that okay here's the thing realisticness is irrelevant as to what I tell you the value of is of Isaiah likely going forward is purely based on what teams are willing to give you for him so so even if I tell you Hey listen Julian what you need to be doing is going out and trying to trade it Isaiah likele for running backs who underperformed in week one therefore what I'm looking at is the potential of can I go take Isaiah likeley and a running back on my team and go try to trade for let me think about this who is the caliber that we want because you're not going to get any of the the the hot shot so you're pretty much so like even if I tell you yo go take Isaiah likeley and go get Naji Harris right unless that that team needs the tight end it needs Naji Harris you know what I mean like uh needs the tight end more than they need Naji Harris or unless you go to a team that really needs tight end and has the running back depth to kind of even meet your stipulations of what you need on roster and what they're willing to give you it's tough it's just a matter of like what are they willing to give you and when I look at the running back performances of week one like again realistic is not it's I just hate the word vocabulary wise in this scenario because I just don't think it applies like if I'm going out there like I'm trying to trade for Josh Jacobs right now 11 points poor performance sure but then I'm going to wait until Jordan love comes back and I'll eat whatever I'll tank the next couple weeks of mid performances to get the upside I'm trying to get Travis etn right now I'm trying to get Derek Henry right now you know like these are the guys I'm going after as to whether or not you're capable of getting them because I'm not going out and trading for Zach Moss I don't have an issue you know an interest in that I'm not going out to trade for I mean you you can't afford any of these other backs you're not going to trade for Kenneth Walker or Alvin Kamar at that point you're just you're out of luck unfortunately but yeah unless you're going to trade for backs that have underwhelming week ones you know James Cook J you know yeah James Cook Josh Jacobs Travis etn Derk Henry letter rib Naji Harris I guess is the most realistic to be honest okay let's go ahead let's update this couple more Super chats came in just want to answer them really quickly first one comes in from mango who says drop Addison or shanet for likely considering Addison is probably going to be put on the questionable tag on all of our platforms until he's designated out because he most likely will miss this upcoming week I'm more inclined to drop Addison pick up likely then later in the week try to pick up Addison again and immediately put him on my injured reserve keep sharnet just in case of course Kenneth Walker injury is more serious than anticipated I'd like to have the starting running back of the Seahawks going forward if possible Xavier per sends in a Super Chat thank you Xavier first on the waivers should I get Mason olave or okay first and foremost uh before I get to the second question olave are more rest of season who do you have higher in your rest of season rankings as it currently stands I'd probably say I have ove ranked higher rest of season still like just like I had before the season started I'll keep olav in that scenario as for Mason you only pick him up if you're a Christian mcaffrey manager with a number one waiver or unless you believe you can pick him up and flip him in a trade otherwise if you pick up Mason and you waste your number one waiver wire and you don't get a trade out of it and you don't get anything out of it quite frankly and mcaffrey ends up playing in week two you've done yourself a major diservice and yes you'll still have Mason for the remainder of the season and you will I'm not going to even say it you're going to hope that something terrible happens to mcaffry but unless you have the ability to swap him in a trade or unless you have mcaffrey I don't think you're wasting the number one waiver I don't know if it's technically maybe waste isn't the correct terminology uh but yeah you're just not going to utilize it for something that's not going to immediately help and impact your team okay uh um I think we're good to go let me go ahead and answer a couple more questions let's see here we had a couple super chats that were sent in after Xavier per we had Kevin Smith who says full PPR first all my waivers drop DeShaun Watson or sorry drop Deshawn Watson for Mason or likely I'm stacked a wide receiver my quarterback is Goff no tight end required or are there any other suggestions again if you have Christian mcaffrey you pick up Mason if you do not have Christian mcaffry you can pick up Mason but only if you can arrange a trade in which you are sending him away for you know some sort of running back or wide receiver depth if that if neither of those are accomplishable I'm picking up likely I will I will use the number one waiver to pick up likely and regardless of whether it's required likely could either become in a full PPR format your Flex or somebody else after week two let's say for example worst case scenario can Kate has another terrible week one catch for two yards what do you think the concade manager is going to do come knocking at your door and saying yo I need Isaiah likely what do you need what do you want all right give me Kade and something else boom so likely's probably your play unless again you fall into the blocks of needing Mason for a reason Thomas sends in a question says in a PPR Hill at tight end okay T Hill at tight end being offered Bowers likely and Ingram for my tank Dell wide receivers are Marvin Harrison rice London and Dell do I take the deal or wait out with tesm I think waiting out with tesm isn't a bad approach I think what you're being offered in terms of Ingram or likely for tank is not a bad deal um so if I'm in your position I want to know what your wide receiver four would look like if you got rid of D because again once bye start to hit once injuries start to hit you will need a fourth wider receiver that is you know at least somewhat reliable to be able to throw into your lineup and at least get a solid performance out of them if not a better you know a great performance uh but in this scenario if I'm in your position I don't have an issue trading tank Del for for likely or Ingram um obviously likely is the hot hand and the the sexy name on the Block but in in the form of trading tank Del for Ingram I don't have an issue with that especially if you don't want to wait out for Hill but if you do I don't have an issue with that you can pick up somebody like Kobe Parkinson this week hold your team and if in the future you then feel like all right maybe it's time to then move for tight end then you move but by the time you get there tank Dell may have a good enough performance to where you may be able to get a better tight end in in exchange right so maybe patience is the approach in this scenario rogo sens it a question thank you rogo says sup Andrew in a standard half PPR scoring format dropping Philadelphia for Los Angeles charterers defense very well thumbs up for that owle for Parkinson or Shahed opponent uh opponent needs a tight end has Ferguson good picks question mark who else should I drop look in this scenario um I think you're you would do yourself a favor in terms of picking up that Los Angeles Chargers defense I also think that it's probably in your best interest to yeah try to negate your opponent for this week getting a tight end of the caliber of Parkinson so I don't have an issue with that at all um as for your current roster as to suff that you could drop I mean you have Higgins you have Shakir you have Swift you have Chase Brown I'm not dropping any of those um what is available on the waivers consist of Hollywood Brown Hollywood Brown I wouldn't mind picking him up and throwing him on my IR if he's still given the IR designation I don't know what PL platform you play on and whether or not that's the case but outside of that I'm not touching anything else on the waivers there rogo thank you keep Elliot or pick up Boswell says M money rupy or Santos um I like Elliott he was great last year he's been great so far this year if you're looking for even more upside um I would suggest going after one of those three wi you would go after one of the three kickers in that scenario who were playing indoors I guess Blake groupy is going to play indoors this week uh but I don't like the match up against the Dallas Cowboys could lead to more field goals for groupy Boswell is going to play in Denver which again relatively comfortable for the kicking position more potential length to those kicks Santos has always been a great kicker top three last season of fantasy I think you're you're okay with Elliot but if you want to pick up one of those three I don't have an issue with it I think they're all great options I don't I don't really uh feel strongly about you have to pick up this person or X Y or Z person primarily because it's very much so going to be a weather game as we progress uh would you do Bowers for Swift if you have Ferguson as your uh as your tight end Backup backup tight end H would you do Bowers for Swift so you're getting Bowers under the assumption that wait hold up wait wait um inderjit do me a favor and explains this to me do you are you getting Bowers or are you getting Swift that's the real question here because that's that's my confusion as it currently stands Jaden Oliver says any moves Josh Allen J uh what is this jir Gibbs Kenneth Walker Brandon auk CD lamb doton King Cade DeAndre uh sorry Devonte Smith DeAndre Smith that's not the right name uh Ravens defense Brandon Aubrey want to know as it currently stands I don't really see any there's really nothing to move for Jaden Oliver you got a really solid team across the board I know King K didn't play well in week one needed auk needed lamb but they're going to get better over time don't don't worry about it uh Maz space says drop my only tight end TM Hill for likely yeah I'll take that I'll take that thank you uh we had a followup from Interjet who said I traded Drake loner for DK n don't love it but let's hope for DK to play well I mean again the trade is done Jason says Flex one PPR pick one Aaron Jones or Jerome Ford I'd rather play Aaron Jones in a full PPR I mean sorry in a full PPR I'd rather play Jerome Ford there's more receiving upside potential there and again it's not as difficult of a matchup in comparison to Aaron Jones going up against the uh 49ers this week Christopher K says should I uh should I pick up likely Cooks Lazard Shahed Mason or Alexander mad I have conc with Kean Allen at the flex also have cup Wilson Gibbs and Ford as it currently stands um I would I'd probably pick up Isaiah likely in this scenario I think he's the most valuable if Dobbins was there I'd probably tell you to pick him up but he's not so in this scenario likely is the most valuable you could probably use him as trade bait and get a lot out of him you would only ever pick up Mason in this scenario Christopher is if you're the Christian mcaffry manager and considering you didn't mention Christian mcaffry in your message I'm assuming you don't have him and I'm assuming that you wouldn't pick them up because you wouldn't guarantee to be able to get a trade uh that would get you a piece like likely back so in this scenario likely he it's probably your pick up there Christopher indit says I'm trading Bowers for Swift I see what you're saying now I have Ferguson as my backup but Ferguson's injured that is the issue so unless you're going to go pick up another tight end afterward and you have the bench space available to do so Bowers is probably the best tight end option that you have and going forward unless you're going to get Isa likely off the waivers it's probably in your best interest to keep Bowers in this scenario while we're going to see an extended missing time from Ferguson due to the uh the MCL sprain that he sustained in the game against the Cleveland Browns okay

the description all of the information there within the 2024 fantasy football champion tier with rankings weekly uh you know private Discord ask me questions all that kind of jazz if you guys are interested thank you very much I greatly appreciate it okay uh we had a question that came in from Jorge Jorge Where Art Thou question oops let's not do that let's go ahead and let's do this F jge okay Jorge let's see where art thou your question goes as follows hi Andrew in a full PPR are Mark Andrew and Jaan Johnson sorry in a full PPR tight ends are Mark Andrew and Jaan Johnson also likely is available on waivers but I'm currently fifth on the waivers any other waiver options I'm thinking of dropping hubard and to pick up a tight end as it currently stands in your position I would start Andrews for the remainder of the Season until otherwise noted uh Jawan Johnson's a solid number two but I'm not really interested in I mean you would only ever drop hubard if you are four running backs deep and he's your fifth uh but yeah if if you're going to drop him it would and you're not going to get likely you probably have to go after Kobe Parkinson or shemer in that scenario but even then going after another tight end really isn't necessary because I think Mark angel will be fine going forward all right let's see here King Kade or Parkinson King Kade Ingram or Bowers rest of season I'm still going to stick with Ingram one week does not change the rankings guys okay let's see here start Pacho or Marvin Harrison Pacho for sure Pacho is gonna be listen guys if aandre Stevenson can run through that Cincinnati Bengals defense imagine what Pacho is gonna be able to do I mean goodness gracious it's going to be an absolute it might be a Slaughter I don't know crispy says hey Andrew hope all is well with you I love the work uh by the way quick question I have Anan should I pick up Jaylen Wright or Jeff Wilson Jr this week Ravens or Chargers uh full PPR I'd rather have the Ravens defense and then additionally on top of that yes try to pick up Jaylen Wright and or Jeff Wilson Jeff Wilson was active in Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars which leans me in his Direction in terms of who would be the next man up in this backfield uh if Jaylen Wright was active then it would make me more confident going his Direction but considering uh he wasn't jayen Wright will probably be the latter of the two that I'm suggesting so I'll I'll go ahead and pick up Baltimore and pick up Jeff Wilson just to be you know just to be insured with having a piece just in case hn and or mostard are out on Thursday what do we do with ad Mitchell what do sorry what do you think about ad Mitchell he'll get better over time but once Josh down Josh Downs returns that's going to impact him for those of you guys who have open uh you know IR positions on your bench go pick up Josh D tonight don't use a waiver on it just let waivers run and then afterward pick him up let's see here we had a question that came in from Taco wait what is this oops I'm trying to do this here we go is there anything there okay nothing there perfect okay scrolling down Taco where are we at here Taco says the following in a 12 team full PPR leag should I be looking to trade kyn Williams and if so why should i t uh who should I Target no do not trade KY Williams keep him you're good to go um or does puka being hurt boost kyon's value kyon's value is boosted based on what happened on Sunday night what happened on Sunday night is that Blake Corin played zero offensive snaps therein lies the designation in the Declaration that it's kyen Williams season therefore today he's my number one running back for week two he's going to torch Arizona this weekend uh if you are in the business of trading for players guys KY Williams is the running back I'd like thank you Andrew says in the 12 team full PPR League burrow Naji chimra lamb auk waddle pretty good wide receivers there KD at tight end what position would you Target on The Wire uh as it currently stands I probably in your scenario probably be looking to try to get JK doin if if potentially available otherwise maybe going and getting a little bit more depth a wide receiver maybe with a Miss Williams assuming is available outside of that I'm not really interested in anything else I'll let the waivers run and continue to let uh the waiver priority move up the board assuming it's not a Fab League KB sends in a question says Brian Thomas Jr Ford or London in the flex um as it currently stands I'd like to give Drake London another opportunity so that's probably where I'm going in the direction of thank you for the question KB all right guys I think that's where I'm going to call it I do appreciate you
