we're good hey everybody and welcome to the fantasy fullback dive brought to you by the good people at the rotto Street Journal Paving your way to Fantasy Glory acting as your lead blocker for Fantasy Excellence making all your football related fantasies come true I'm your host Nat the truth Jones with me as always The Wolf of Roto Street himself and we are in our speed this is this is the speed show this is the one where we're trying to hustle hustle hustle get done as close to kickoff as possible and we're playing with like half an hour 35 minutes something like that the last game just ended we got to see two undefeated teams lose to two teams that were just absolutely massive underdogs real shocker Eagles turned it over five times and just fell to the Jets and of course the Browns knocked off the 49ers earlier wolf how you doing you ready yeah let's Dive Right In as you said we got no time to waste we're gonna hit all our risers fallers injuries we're going to try a new format tonight where we go position by position as well see if that helps it flow quicker of course we're trying to get you all the good stuff without skimping as well and we'll have our early recap we got the 4M games just kind of wrapping up as you were hinting at so we don't have exact snap counts and complete UT usage from there but we'll hit as many snap counts and interesting things the 1 PMs and then we'll scan those box scores real fast and then hit you with the early week seven wave of wire ideally in 30 minutes or less let's dive in huh right uh and like we said before we we got a Sunday night football game and it it figures to be a real Massacre so we still want to try to get you there on time but I don't have a lot of Hope for the Giants all right let's get right into it like wolf said we're going by position so we're going to start quarterback the obvious guy to start with is probably Tua he completed 21 out of 31 for 262 and three touchdowns in their weak six win against the hapless Panthers probably could have had more than that sat a lot of the fourth quarter which I was happy to see as a twoa owner and just a decent human being because obviously like the guy should if if if the games out of hand get him off the field um you know he could have had even more points than he did I think he ended up scoring 28 fantasy points for me but I mean he looked really good what can I say and the the Dolphins offense rolls as we all expected it to yeah he really just a low-scoring quarterback day in general too so Tu might end up being the high scorer of the week while you said only playing three quarters really just impressive offense it continues to just steamroll at levels that we have not really seen very often Jared gof also steamrolling 353 yards two scores now David Montgomery a bit banged up when we get to injuries we'll dive in a bit more but they might need lean on Goff even heavier he just looks great so poised this is his team this is his offense they love him there love to see it for him uh just going back to the comment on Tua maybe being the highest scoring quarterback of the week don't sleep on Josh Allen uh yeah murders that's that's a fair point so far though I think he's in the clubhouse with the lead Desmond Ritter had a pretty good game too yeah you didn't hear me wrong that's Desmond R Ritter getting a shout out in the risers studs category 28 out of 47 for 307 two touchdowns and to go along with three picks in their 2416 loss to the commanders you know three interceptions is never a great look but if you look at just the overall fantasy production he actually is a pretty good fantasy game uh for a quarterback especially this week yeah he's the the fourth highest scorer quarterback as of now with the Eagles game wrapping up Jaylen Herz did come in second but only 22 points on draftings at least for jayen Herz so no real Blow Away performance Jared gof was the QB leader to second Desmond Ritter fourth on that list and the only other notable guy I guess is Derek Carr you did get benefited from that 300 yard bonus on DraftKings 20 DK points for him uh but still just kind of mediocre just good to see him though slinging the ball a bit more onto fallers at the quarterback position Kurt cousin without Justin Jefferson you'd think that maybe this offense would stay afloat and continue to Pepper in just one game who don't want to freak out but 181 yards just one score very mediocre day especially when you're add in a mixed a lost fumble there so tough day without his main guy and we'll talk about the wide receivers when we get there and the pass catchers who really ate up the work nobody it just was much more vacant not the offense that we've come to expect and of course you don't think they're G to be as high powered with with Jefferson as they were um with him without him but ultimately just a a tough tough performance from this Vikings team and we're gonna take the other side in that game that you were just referencing with the the Vikings uh you know I wrote a a scathing article saying get rid of Justin Fields when he had that good game like two weeks ago uh then he had an even better game just about the next week um and now he came back and and now he's the Justin fields that I was writing about he went six for 10 58 yards and a pick he also ran eight times to 46 yards now he did get injured in the third quarter but I mean he was doing nothing and it was against a Vikings defense that's really been pretty terrible this year so uh pretty unimpressive on both sides of the ball in that game yeah I was expecting a real big shootout we did not get it sorry Chiller if you're tuned in right now he asked me for my highest over under that I felt most confident about 44 four and a half was a smash with two of these offenses peing obviously Justin Jefferson going out but I figured they could still maintain Court here with bad defenses and no we got nothing there just awful on both sides of the ball and as you said he did get hurt Justin Fields so you don't want ever be like oh he's a follow just because you he look just didn't look good he was bad when he it was that worry turn 58 yards passing in the third quarter yeah not good not good not good for Brock py either just 12 of 27 under 50% of his passes 125 yards and one touchdown a pick just gross three carries for seven yards as well really missed mcaffrey there down the stretch yes it's a good Browns defense but this was the worst we've ever seen Brock party look other than that playoff game where he didn't have an elbow so definitely a concerning performance for him but I imagine they get it right back on track I'm not overly concerned with this one everybody was kind of missing for the the Niners I me their kicker missed a field goal and he had missed just one of the craziest upsets and then the Jets game like you said what a wild Sunday of football insane you know those are the games what what the those are the scores of games when stuff like that happens it was 19 17 in the Browns Niners game 1412 in the Jets Eagles game or 1814 or something like that anyway um Joe burrow he was underwhelming and it says right here underwhelming but looked mobile and it's funny I had exactly the same thought when I watched him he went 24 out of 35 for 185 yards two touchdowns and a pick they did win in an ugly game all these scores are the same 17 13 over the Seahawks I thought this one would be much more high-scoring also but I specifically remember a play I don't I think it was in the third quarter or something he got flushed out of the pocket he ran all over the place like evading people evading people and then he completed like a three- yard pass or something but I I remember the exact play that the least exciting cap off to the best we've seen burrow moving around the pocket yeah I think you you summarized it perfect not a great statistical day but good to see him moving around that way better days are ahead just good to see says he's felt as healthy as he ever has this year H it's good to see that actually play out despite the stats not necessarily matching it yet eyeball test was passed for that sense Baker Mayfield 206 scoreless yards in a pick one of the worst performances we've seen out of him you know kind of crumbled in back-to-back days against the Eagles then this the only couple big tests they've had they've failed but still an impressive Bucks team overall on the year but definitely a lackluster day for this passing attack raning out the fallers and quarterbacks and I even know we can't really I don't this guy could fall any further but 24 out of 33 for 200 yards and a pick in the Patriots 2117 week six loss to the Raiders they are terrible and he is terrible and I don't have anything else to say about it anything else would just be twisting the knife you got anything I think is a good point he had nowhere further to fall I just imagine we're not even gonna see him next week I think it's time for the bench we'll see Malik Cunningham or Will Greer or something else for this Patriots team is the lost that he had bad drops around him you know he we should have won that game so I don't want to sit here saying it's all Max fall it wasn't function it's time to just clean house and just and move forward yeah I don't I don't want to dump on him for this either but but I mean it was just it it's just really bad is this the worst Patriots team in your life it's up there yeah it's it's certainly up there I I've been very spoiled as a pass fan so yeah I remember like some years probably when you were like three years old or something when they were like one and 15 got stuff like that when they when their coach was Dick mcferson or whatever right they were awful but this is the worst team I've seen of theirs and you know certainly since well before Brady right exactly so most of my football life was Brady even before that was bledo which wasn't so bad so yeah this is this is as pathetic as I've seen I in terms of injuries at the quarterback position Justin Fields as we mentioned he was stinking it up anyways but then did head into the locker room X-rays were negative on his hand so he's going to get an MRI on Monday to see if there's any other damage but hopefully it sounds like at least he avoided broken bones we don't know if ligaments will be intact I think everything should be okay there though and then Jimmy Garoppolo did not return against the Patriots it was a back injury he's just been getting kind of slammed all over the place this is his second injury of the Year Hoyer did come in filled in admir 162 yards a touchdown H one pick as well but looked okay it was interesting they went to Hoyer and not oconnell who had started that previous game I figured the rookie might get another burn but no they they wanted to give Hoyer the Revenge game I guess yeah I heard Jimmy G actually went to the hospital so oh did he wow okay I didn't realize it that serious I I saw that headline I didn't click on the article but I mean it sounds like he got messed up pretty good wow pretty bad um all right let's talk about running backs risers SL studs I mean this is the highest fantasy score of the week and it's just this Dolphins yeah this Dolphins offense just CHS them out Raheem moard filling in quite capably for Devon Anan who was out for I think it's going to be four weeks yeah mo mo gets the nod he played well behind Anan last week but this week he 17 rushes 115 yards and two touchdowns he also had three catches for another 17 and another touchdown and he got you know we talked a little bit about H Jeff Wilson's Back goal line work whatever I was not worried they they gave it to mostard on the goal line multiple times uh when they could have gone to Wilson and he did punch it in so just absolutely you know great game for moster best game anybody had all week they' proved they can plug and play you actually commented their backup Ahmed also managed to score a touch down during garbage time in the fourth quarter so if you play running back for the Dolphins except not Jeff Wilson so far um You're Gonna Eat Well Jeff Wilson was inactive today truth so we don't want to come on he did not end him on the field so no no Wilson did not play today he ended up on the so uh so we will see when he comes back but indeed it was definitely the moster show today and as you mentioned still another 10 points 11 points for aded he was a guy hyped up as a sleeper so not bad he ended up pulling through for you guys if you use svin Amed today but yeah moer was the absolute show 41 of the 67 snaps him and Ahmed did run similar routes does make you wonder is Ahmed worth waiver wire stab probably not I do think Jeff Wilson will be back and this is why you have to hold on to Jeff Wilson I wrote about augment and just the backfield as a hole coming into the the week truth and they had the 12th most carries in the league but the most yards most rushing touchdowns most yards per carry it is the most fertile run environment that is possibly out there so yes whether it's moer Jeff Wilson if Salin oan is ever making starts any piece of this back field welcome and it sounds like achan will be back after his four weeks it's not GNA be something that lingers was the latest report there so if you can somehow Buy Low or if that owner is struggling and need something and you can go get HM man you're G to have yourself a League winner come to your stretch run should he stay healthy Trav just another game four touchdowns now across his last two weeks 55 yards two scores not a huge day efficiency wise because it was 18 carries just for 55 yards but did have three catches for 28 looks explosive looks more decisive etn has definitely been uh the duck could feed us and Crow on this one truth I remember me you and mo we came up we filed on the duck and he is emerging Victorious here so if you're listening duck shout out to you you were definitely right on ET and he is the man in this backfield and should have been a early second rounder at latest yeah he was I admit it chuba Hub 19 rushes for eight 88 yards and a touchdown also had a catch for two yards usually their starter is Miles Sanders he's been out this is better than pretty much anything miles Sanders has put up absolutely yeah and he out snapped rash Raheem black sheer who was the other only other running back seeing any time he out snapped him five to one so I don't know may be encouraging but I mean I mean I the Carolina's gross all around but you know this is actually encouraging if you're looking in a running back lightly League you could do a lot worse than chuba hubard right now yeah you got to wonder if they keep the keys in chuba hub's hand after this was like you said better than anything we've seen out of my sanders he this is the third year Trend now of him getting significantly more efficient and and just looking better eyeball testwise and three straight years I I was really impressed with what sh chuba Hubbard was doing and there was a worry Black Shear might get the third down touches and make this more of a no 27 of the 42 routes went to chuba hubard like you said 53 of the 68 snaps as well for chuba H he was a dominant 80% touch 80% snap dominant workload so if we get most uh rather mil Sanders out again chuba hover a high end I had him at running back 20 seven spots above the ECR feeling pretty good about that one end up paning up pretty big Alvin Kamar another one of those days where just looked mad but it's hard not to put him on the Riser list because he just gets so much work 19 carries 68 yards nothing great or impressive with that but also another eight targets seven catches for 36 yards and in terms of expected fantasy points he now leads the NFL since returning in expected fantasy points he's underperforming that because he just he doesn't look hopeful for a more explosive Kamar after all the training camp reports was he's got his feedback he doesn't look quite as bad as he did last year but this is not the Kamar Kamar of old the role is still very valuable though and he's putting up decent fantasy numbers because the volume is just monstrous uh this is a kind of gross running back situation here Alex Madison dominated the workload in the Minnesota backfield backfield but I mean he did that rushing 18 times for 44 yards that's less than two and a half yards a carry he also added four catches for 28 yards uh he was second on the team in Targets this this seems more like a commentary on just how awful they were but he did dominate the workload and the snap count and everything else cam Acres rushed once for eight yards so that was not too exciting although his his yards per carry was like three times higher than Madison so I don't know maybe they should maybe they should have given it to him a couple more times but yeah we talked about the Vikings and and how bad they stunk up the joint that was passing game and running game so yeah it was just a matter of it had been getting closer and closer to a a 6040 last week it seemed like Acres was earning more and more work and he he's always looked better than Madison ever since he's been on this team he's been much more efficient was again today even though it was just two touches But ultimately Madison was much more entrenched at that starter 45 of 57 snaps 20 of the 33 routes he was pretty much the every down back I still think Acres though despite this discouraging usage he just again passes the eyeball test more this is I I want to say a high powerered offense but without Jefferson man like you said this was a definite downgrade overall as a unit but Madison seemed to be that Workhorse tough to figure out what's going on here with this Cleveland back want to hear your thoughts yeah 17 carries 84 yards for four looks really good too I mean yard bags against one of the best run defenses I saw some cuts out there this kid is this kid's impressive I really like what you're watching it run two catches seven yards as well uh but the workload was definitely closer to a 5050 here Kareem hun also looking really good 12 carries 47 yards and a touchdown and again against the 49ers this is no joke of a defense and he also had three catches for 24 yards and seemed to get more of that short yard yardage work Ford was the primary third down back got more of those snaps but cre hunt did get three of the four short yardage uh snaps there third Downs did again get dominated by Jerome Ford eight of the the 12 snaps there so 75% go to him but certainly more involvement from hunt it kind of became a thing where hunt and Pier strong were about like 40% of the work combined and then Ford was 60% before now it just was hunt was like 40 Ford was 60 so a little bit more clear-cut roles it makes hunt who got dropped in a lot of leagues intriguing especially again because he's got that short yardage role that does put a little bit of a thorn into Ford's side if he's not GNA get those goal line Looks those touchdowns because he had scored some some decent amount there looks like Hunt's back in that role and he was rumbling I don't know did you see much of that game like hun kind of had a couple powerful runs there hun looked good but I mean I thought Ford Ford looked really good too I think I'm a Ford owner I I was one of the people that that blew all my money that week to get him it was you know he was the the flavor of the week that week and I got him and I don't feel bad about it I mean he's good he's a starting running back on most people's fantasy teams even now even sharing the workload yeah I'd agree Brian Robinson he rushed 10 times for 31 yards this was another gross game the the commanders and the Falcons he did add had two t uh two catches for 25 and a touchdown his he did score on a 24 yard screen pass other than that he pretty much did nothing he's rushed for 45 yards or less in three straight games and you know we were high on him for a little while he is really stunk up the joint recently yeah he was supposed to be on the uh the me guys not a b guy though Ken Walker was 19 carries 62 yards so I guess a m in terms of efficiency but yet another touchdown that's now I I believe his six score on the season fourth touchdown from the one yard line he has been a rock solid you know fifth sixth rounder we've dealing with that ribb andry in Camp what one of the better values in the league and especially 56 of the 73 snaps dominating the work more involved in the passing game as well 27 routes that was a season High well over 50% of the routes this is an every down back in an offense that's towards the top half of the league and certainly likes to give him cap off chances so great game there for uh for Ken Walker and certainly great involvement in role as well uh did you got kyen Williams here do you do you want to talk about his 4M game I don't know his number we'll do a 4M box score scan at the end of everything like we always do all right so well let's get into the Colts then their running backs actually had a pretty close to even split in the backfield Jonathan Taylor uh who played 33 out of uh the 78 snaps I believe he rushed eight times for 19 yards that's gross adding five catches for 46 I saw I think the one really good play he had he had a catch for like 20 yards or something like that um it did not look impressive I have to say Zach Moss rushed seven times for 21 yards which is only marginally better he also had a touchdown they lost that game to the Jags this was another one of those just like you these games all were kind of the same they were all just like lows scoring like no one did much games he did add six catches for 38 yards um and it says here obviously he scored the touchdowns great but there's no denying that his role took a huge hit with the return of Taylor Moss was dominating the back field and now he's basically 5050 sharing time but neither one of them really did much it seems like seems like one of them could still win the Back Field if they did something exactly you got to imagine the money all that will eventually favor Taylor and they will turn over the keys the record Moss is making it hard though he is clinging to this role he's still really effici he scored that touchdown looking good as a receiver I think the big reason why he ended up out snapping Taylor today only by five though much closer margin than last week when it was nearly 80% Moss yet again uh but the reason why it was two minute drill is where we really saw Moss Domin and that kind of makes sense he's been with the team longer he has more familiarity with when they're really T putting that no huddle offense out there I do imagine Taylor will eventually get worked in and just encouraging to see how involved both these guys were as pass patchers that probably wouldn't have been the case with Anthony Richardson and even though I like Richardson as a whole for this offense The Backs probably benefit probably a pretty big big time here when the unan that vulture of Anthony Richardson plus the dump offs from Garden menu he really targeted the position heavily today both Patriots running backs another just mess interesting like it's not really a riser or Faller just kind of wanted to note that both of them scored touchdowns ra Andre had 10 carries for 46 in a score 24 yards on five catches an okay day for him you know the best day we've really seen from him in a while goes to kind of show you how bad his season's been and then Zeke seven carries 34 yards and a score as well he did have a 75 y called back uh so ultimately that was uh disappointing for him his stats could looked a whole lot better we go to the Faller section and we we did one of the ones probably should have been in the fallers section but anyway bers Duds bejon Robinson Tyler alir they both ran the ball 13 times bjan got 37 yards out of it he did add five catches for 43 alir rest for his 13 times he got 51 yards um what was interesting is that they tried several times to punch the ball in from short yardage with alir and he he' never made it neither one of them looked too good I mean he's been referred to alir has been referred to a bunch of times as a thorn in the of bejon Robinson owners I would say that is an apt description although like I said neither one of them did much yeah just annoying to see how aler continues to be involved especially at the stripe like you alluded to bejon though saving his value with the receiving role no Patterson at least getting mixed in then it could have got real ugly it seems like that we don't have to worry about anymore still though you'd love to see him get a few stabs at the goal line especially with aler struggling there right now Joe mixing another day with almost all the snaps and another day with Oham production he was our lower of the week and it's kind of what we expected 12 carries 38 yards ew three catches 24 yards just a day it's just nothing good about Joe Mixon right now even though he's the a dominant Workhorse in an offense that seems to be ascending I still think he's an intriguing by low they have the buy this week b gets fully healthy in my mind and and maybe they come out of the buy flying on all cylinders and it is still an expected role it's one of the best in the leagues he's just not doing much with it I don't know that he will but I don't know that you have to pay much to get him either way the Bears running backs did about what I assumed they would do which is nothing Deontay Foreman 15 rushes 65 yards one catch for two yards darant Evans who was their change of pace back rushed nine times for 32 and he also had a whopping one reception for a whopping two yards not a whole lot else to say no not much there uh ultimately it just kind of goes to show when rosan comes back the door should be wide open for him to take back over this back field uh while khil Herbert is on the the IR as you got moved to earlier this week and then Keat Mitchell the guy we want everyone to stash the speed the lightning doesn't get a single touch doesn't see the field today in London for the Ravens I still if you have the space you could hold and see if this gets into fruition but at this point they seem very satisfied with Edwards and Hill even though it's a gross M committee it doesn't I don't know we'll see with Kei Mitchell if he can hold one more week and see if if this was the first time he was potentially going to be activated is still an undrafted free agent though I don't know that he's ever going to get Force onto the field even though we all want to see him because he looks so good in the preseason he the third fastest 40 I get all that but at the end of the day if he's not going to get on the field it doesn't M you don't want to burn a roster spot too much longer on I personally cut him so I can move tank Del to my ir and pick up somebody to stream myself so you can drop Kei Mitchell at this point the dream seems over consider him dropped although thank you for like the 35,000 clicks we got seriously we appreciate it um the Bucks running backs also stink Rashad white rushed seven times for 26 yards caught three balls for 12 yards that was no good of course now I mean the the Bucks scored six points so you know obviously nobody really did anything but uh yeah running backs were a real dud this week horrible and in terms of injuries David Montgomery less than the game in the second quarter rib injury did not come back to the game certainly something the Mony fell on the ball looked pretty awkward when that happened not great at all and then the big one of course though is Christian mcaffrey oblique injury did not return to the game against the Browns he tried to re-enter then left again went to the locker room and cleared discomfort uh I would be shocked if he doesn't rest for at least a game or two the Craig Reynolds for the lion situation of course Jordan Mason look like he will probably be the blow itall type of waiver wire pick depending on what this injury looks like for Christian mcaffrey certainly something to monitor we're about to head two wide receivers wolf pack as we get over there please do do consider that thumbs up button it really does help us it gets out to more people if you're new around here consider subscribing to the channel as we make that climb to 5K would love to hit it this year and you guys have been great so far so love to have more and more of you with us on to wide receivers wide receivers the Timeless Adam th 11 balls on 13 targets 115 yards in a touchdown in that ugly week six loss against the Dolphins that we alluded to before I mean I you know like he he you know he's he's another guy who's just completely unsexy and he has been forever he's always been unsexy but the guy the guy's a really really good NFL professional receiver he especially I mean he catches tons of touchdowns and he's clearly the security blanket for whoever happens to be playing quarterback it was Bryce young in this instance uh for the Panthers in comparison DJ CH caught three balls for 26 Jonathan Mingo caught two balls for 21 obviously the aerial piie belongs to Adam Thelen I wide wide Mar we've seen this before too with aging veterans that Larry Fitzgerald is a good example where dominant a really good outside receiver seemed to be kind of struggling and then gets moved to the slot and just has a Resurgence for a year or two Adam feeling he's no Larry Fitzgerald but we're seeing that kind of similar Arc here with him it beautiful to see and I'll just confess my worst fantasy sin of the year so far after his week one D and I have D he was one of my my most owned guys in best ball he's he's carrying a lot of teams right now love him I cut him in week one after in my main League one catch like six-yard performance I was like a this offense looks so bad I thought he was gonna be the main bin wasn't at all see you later oh man if I had him in my league I might be five and0 at this point so I just gotta get that off my chest a heartbreaker I'm not perfect so sad very far from it let's put it that way and certainly Adam D being cut is one of the big glaring concerns of mine right now Jaylen watles nine targets 51 yards on seven catches and a score not to be outdone by of course Tyreek Hill though going for what 160 touchdown head catches just did a back flip in the end zone yeah got flagged for the flip yeah awesome oh man he is just so damn good uh this offense is so damn good what a great Unstoppable passing attack talked about Desmond Ritter earlier well he was throwing to Drake London a decent amount that's a guy that like has been really disappointing I would have to say up to this point he got 12 targets he caught nine of them for 125 yards 12 targets tied a career high for him and um the nine ctions the 125 yards also career highs so I don't know if you're looking for a bright spot here we have always thought that London had the talent we're kind of waiting for him to break out this a pretty good game yeah it's really never been an issue with him it's just a matter of how game specific it is when they have to throw they keep the air under the ball he looks good he's been targeted before but nothing like this some of those catches too huge degree of difficulty contested grabs the the moves of an alpha I mean honestly you give this team a quarterback that could actually sling it more often he would be a top 12 potential receiver so so talented just can't wait for him to finally get unleashed the right way Jamar Chase six of 13 targets just 80 yards but man that whopping 37% Target share better days are ahead and they have the easiest schedule down the stretch run so I think Chase if his owner is freaking out at all or he hasn't had the best of starts that one monster last week otherwise he's been me if you can somehow squeak I know you're not going to be able to buy low but buying below what I think the rest of the season will be for him which is maybe the best player in fantasy at certainly a wide receiver if you can get him on this by week his owner Hur and definitely try to take a plunge Garder M muu has played significant minutes significant snaps in three in four games this year and in three of those games Michael Pitman has seen at least 11 Target he got targeted 14 times today caught nine of them for 109 yards so he is the clear number one option here especially when menu is in there but I mean really all the time but especially menu looks to him more and more and more they did of course lose that game we talked about that Josh DS was second on the team in targets and got the only passing touchdown of the day that minu threw he caught five balls for 21 yeah so at least you got in the end zone kind of bailing you guys out for streamers there me included 32% rostered certainly a guy to be looking at on your Waiver Wires if he's out there Brandon IU 10 targets 37% share that's all good four catches 76 yards pretty mediocre leaves you wanting more but with Debo banged up with mcaffry banged up he might be the ultimate bane of this offense for a week or too so definitely seems like he's trending upwards the share was there the production didn't follow I think better days will be head if he gets 10 targets more consistently second time this season Terry McClaren was targeted at least 11 times he was targeted 11 times today caught six of them 81 yards not bad not amazing but encouraging that he's getting those that many looks from s yeah after last week that was Logan Thomas seeing the 11 looks at least from getting mcen as involved as he should be ni Collins leading the team and receiving four catches 80 yards six targets not exactly a hog day but good to see him at the top of the leaderboard no tank Dell still getting it done okay uh but he'd like to see a little bit more actually to be honest take the next one wolf I'll be right back olve gets 10 targets seven catches 96 yards just overall seeing the trend upwards for Deshaun uh rather uh Derek Carr there 353 yards the piie is is growing as the AC joint heals a bit more and ol was back to that main vein of the attack Amari Cooper caught four balls on eight targets for 108 yards in the Browns week six shocking win over the 49ers and this is a Niners defense that was no joke and it was also PJ Walker under center for the Browns that's right PJ Walker and I have to admit I was really pulling for the Browns and I was really pulling for him especially after that Deshawn Watson just didn't play again so yeah I know that that was such a great win and Cooper looking QB proof you can get this done with PJ Walker honestly he's been at his worst when deshun Watson's playing uh just to show Walker wouldn't ruin Cooper if we have to lean on this for future games I said that in the broadcast today glad to see it It ultimately came through uh for you folks eight targets for Tyler Lockett six of them for 94 yards the guy is just sitting and churning and continuing to go DK meaf did out Target him with 10 but he was far less productive with just four catches 69 yards he had a tough hit on his hip that was already injured entering the game he had to go off the field for a bit came back in it did not seem overly limited but just something to monitor that he has been a little dinged up throughout the year we've just had kickoff in Buffalo we probably got about 10 more minutes of material guys we're GNA finish up the wide receivers tight ends real fast Wolf's GNA throw a little bit of a early waiver action at you uh I am watching the game here I'm sure I'm sure all of you can see the game also if you want to but if you're still gonna hang with us for the next 10 or so we sure do appreciate it I gotta say I thought that DK he caught four balls for 69 in that game every time I I was watching it seemed like he was catching the ball it's it's to me it seemed like he had like 120 yards yeah and just like you know Alpha dogging guys all the time so that that surprised to his numbers were that low yeah Christian Kirk who's become just a real steady reliable fantasy guy I mean I have him in my starting lineup he like I I've rolled him out the last couple weeks caught three balls for 49 yards and a touchdown okay I'll take that I'll take that I'm running I'm wide receiver light I'll start that guy gets me 12 points I was happy with it cool he was out targeted by Ingram and Ridley but I mean you know he he made it into the end zone again I'm not complaining yeah Curtis Samuel four catches 42 yards in a score back-to-back day you this is third straight useful day third straight day with a touchdown the guy just getting it done over the middle of the field Howell has clear trust in him he's probably what we were hoping Johan doson was going to be who is certainly one of the biggest followers on this list and just in the NFL uh but Curtis samel a riser in his in in within Dotson's just complete plummeting here all right going to the Duds we we've talked about every manner of the Vikings team sucking so we might as well talk about the receiver specifically you and I do they won too so if you're a Vikings fan watching talk about the team like they won we get it just fantasy-wise what a disappointment compared to what we're used to well it reminds me of a couple weeks ago when we were talking about all those insane numbers from uh Devon Anan and then we were like oh by the way the Dolphins got blown out in that game yeah anyway uh the Vikings pass game so you and I one of our disagreements we had on Thursday it was a mild disagreement but we didn't agree on this I said I liked Osborne more than Jordan Addison well the answer was they both were pretty bad I think that you ended up you would have ended up going with Addison you would have gotten a couple more points because he did get into the end zone but here's here's their staggering stat stat lines Addison caught three balls for 28 and a touchdown Osborne caught four balls for 48 so it's not like either one of us was setting the world on fire with these picks Addison did have a slightly better Fantasy game Brandon poell also caught three balls for 20 yards so uh yeah nothing to be too happy about if you're a Vikings fan and again they won they did they won but just a fantasy fan of the Vikings not enjoy we did see T.J Hawkins who lead the way with eight targets six catches 50 yards even he kind of underwhelmed as the target leader there and as mentioned Alexander Madison seven targets were actually second on the team which is another reason to be a little bit worried about this post Justin Jefferson attack it was only one game but also was against a pretty weak secondary of the Bears so something to just be a little bit little bit hesitant there t Higgins we kind of mentioned one of the worst uh picks of the year so far two catches 20 yards four targets not really a decoy but not really a great full-time role either just the buy is here let's hope he's better but I'm not trying to buy low and this just feels like a cursed player this year that I'm not trying to have a any piece of right now I mean DJ Moore had a g five balls on eight targets for 51 yards most of his damage came and it's not much damage but most of his damage did come in the fourth quarter when Tyson bent is that how it's pronounced bent bent know anyway well he was he was he came in when Justin Fields got injured you know not ideal maybe playing for a backup rookie quarterback but it's not like he was doing anything with fields in this game I mean they they did have one or two big connection games this year but let's face it overall DJ Moore has been pretty disappointing but he did have that one just insane Fantasy game that's elevated his numbers for the year he had two in a row and that's why I kind of put him on the ball like 25 and then 45 they like back to back weeks it was looking like this offense was finally finding its dride it just a whole the entire offense taking a massive step back including I mean those were the ones right well Fields has had two games too they're the same gam exact right and so I mean they're tied together I mean you know unfortunately yeah unfortunately for Sher Calvin Ridley just eight uh four catches 30 yards eight targets led the way on the team but very weak production and a very burnable matchup you we just saw DeAndre Hopkins putting up 150 yards and 11 catches against this Indianapolis secondary so you we wanted a lot more from Calvin Ridley it doesn't seem like he's going to be a true Bonafide wide receiver one more like a middling wide receiver two at Best in consistent you Kirk's been the one that's really been actually steady for this offense for the majority of the year so definitely disappointing effort for Calvin Ridley despite pacing the team in looks yeah I really liked Ridley in the preseason too but right right now I'd almost I think I'd probably rather have per Elijah Moore time to cut him four balls on seven targets for 19 yards that's all I got to say I mean he was second targets behind Amari Cooper he put up 19 yards I think I'm done with this guy he there's no reason to keep holding this guy I caught him a while ago about three weeks ago but he's still about 45% rostered no waste of space waste of space as Johan Dodson 70% rostered time for him to kick to the dirt uh no catches one target should have caught it it was right there for him he had all the field in front of him it would have been a long touchdown and and he should have had it he just looks completely lost out there uh not looking well and and I mentioned Mike Evans I benched him for I I I bench rather Derrick Henry for him did not come through for me four catches 49 yards on 10 targets that was not the right play Godin ended up out producing him six catches 77 yards uh on seven looks there though so Heavens led the way in looks but ultimately Godwin did more damage with him two injuries on wide receivers one a lot more significant than the other Debo Samuel was ruled out of the game against the Browns he was injured shoulder injury um and they say that it's not too serious so hopefully we'll see Debo back right away obviously losing him as a weapon losing mcaffrey as a weapon having every possible thing go wrong and then they still lost by only two points to the Browns the Niners will be okay and it seems like this injury is not too bad Alec Pierce also got knocked out of the game with the Jaguars with a shoulder injury we don't have much more information on that yet no not at all let's move to the tight ends wrapping up Riser studs and injuries we got Kyle pittz yeah we we've bashed this guy enough now backto back weeks six targets four catches 43 yards a score not to be outdone Janu their coexisting here also had five targets four catches 36 and a touchdown it's going to be sketchy we don't know that we can consistently rely on it it requires them to be playing from behind but we're at least seeing that when they are behind and when they have to throw at least there is going to be something there it's just a matter of how are the games gonna flow for him today it worked out well and both these guys coexisted and I do think you can feel better about starting either one of them including pits moving forward dton Schultz took advantage of the fact that Nico Collins was locked in a battle with Marshon Latimore he caught four ball on seven targets for 61 yards and a touchdown we've seen how low the bar is for tight end production in fantasy this year this qualifies as a monster game yeah three straight weeks now with quality stats for Dalton Schultz I think he could be in every week's starting he's about 50% rostered so check your leagues there terms of follows we mentioned that Hawkinson a little disappointing as the main vein 50 yards on six catches even more disappointing was George KD one catch two Targets one yard the worst day he's ever had in his career as a starter tough tough sledding for George KD today and tough for the next guy on this list yeah Logan Thomas he caught one ball for two yards huh doubled up K well right very similar I also just want to say you know yeah howison was a little disappointing I think it's doing a real disservice to the guy to call him a disappointment and then call George KD a disappointment one of them caught one ball for one yard yeah I mean that that is just gri it's just terrible just terrible anyway that does it for tight ends you want to talk about a couple of these line injuries before we go on and uh hit some waiver guys yeah and the 4M BLX score will quickly scan as well but Trent Williams did go down as at Lane Johnson to the most important tackles in football we saw how much Under Pressure Jaylen Herz was Brock pie was both those guys it let I mean two of the biggest upsets of the day I'm not saying the tackles were the key only reason for the loss but they were definitely getting higher pressure rates without their two St tackle there so certainly worth noting there how depending on how long that will linger moving to the 4M box scores and as we said we'll fact this is right after those games wrap up so we don't have the exact snap counts some of that usage that we were talking about we just wanted to make some notes of anything that stood out from these 4M games uh so just quickly first looking at the Rams and Cardinals games I thought Keon Ingram playing far more work than everybody's going to Amari Dem marado everyone thought he was going to be the prize waver wire possession Keon was the starter he got the carries 10 carries 40 yards didn't do a whole ton with it but certainly I don't know what the exact snaps will be he definitely was the lead back here though two catches for 11 yards as well just three Touches for de marado definitely a disappointing performance for him hopefully you did not stream him I said to go to Solin Aid instead of either of these guys that did end up being the right play in the receiving game it is worth noting Michael Wilson we'll talk about him with the waivers as well but leading the team with three catches 62 yards on his four targets Maris Brown definitely a disappointing effort with four catches uh 34 yards and then Trey McBride out producing Zack Zs maybe there's a a shifting of the Guard here McBride definitely has more juice as a player four catches 62 yards compared just two for 22 so definitely disappointing for Zs there if you were starting him and then on the Ram side Kyon Williams what a monster day 20 carries 158 yards and a touchdown and he only had about I think he had like under a point in the first half he really lit it up in the second half they let him go and man did he Thrive I just this was one of the first times I really got to watch him extensively and I loved what I saw he is a hard-nosed runner very good fit for the Zone scheme Cooper cup though seven catches 148 yards and a touchdown can we talk about him for a second like good is he's he's so good I mean he just is he's been back for two games and what did he go like eight for 118 last week and and would you say seven for a buck 48 in a touchdown he's so good like you know we talk about you know Tyreek is the best receiver in the league or like sometimes we'll say it's Jamar Chase or it's Justin Jefferson I've never wavered from if he's healthy it's Cooper cup yeah I just think he is I think he is so at least in terms of fantasy production reliability if I'm building a franchise I probably would rather have Tyreek orer but all all I'm saying is when he's healthy there I don't think there's a better wide receiver than him I'm not saying I wouldn't take those guys over him if I were actually start a team I would but yeah he could easily this point on be the best receiver in fantasy especially with Jefferson's injury there's there's no doubt about that it did come at these F of Puka you last week they coexisted perfectly h four catches 26 yards seven targets were second high on the team but little concerning downturn I'm a puka owner here I'm a puka Stan I would be trying to buy low though I do I do think they'll coexist better than this the looks were there for puka they just barely missed on a couple especially one touchdown look so he could get there AJ Brown 130 moveing into the the Eagles losing to the Jets 14 to 20 AJ Brown 131 yards on seven catches this is now his four straight game with at least 125 yards this guy's an absolute stud and again came at the expense of Devonte Smith we were higher lower Hail Mary he was our lower look even with a banged up jet secondary didn't do a ton five catches 44 yards Swift was pretty disappointing today 10 carries for 17 yards did involve as a receiver eight catches 41 yards did score as well so he naed himself out with the receiving usage it's honestly awesome to see as down as it was as a rushan performance for him to see that he could also buoy the value out with a receiving game he's he's locked an rv1 every single week uh great to see that we did get game get mix in a little bit there but not to a overly concerning rates so that was my takeaways uh from this Eagles team Jaylen Herz even on a bad looking day overall three picks he still was the number two quarterback in fantasy as of right now GF the only quarterback outscoring him so it goes to show you how damn like he can be bad and he'll still be great in fantasy unlike Zack Wilson who can just be bad and always be bad but yet he let a win so why should I pump on him eight targets uh actually rather 12 targets eight catches for Garrett Wilson that's is I believe he's averaging 11 targets a game maybe even more than that after this performance 90 yards on it so he has been actually Zack Wilson proof this year a very hard thing to do uh he he's playing well I am not I'm not going to sit here and try to tell you that Zach Wilson's good I'm not g to do that but I do just want to say just in a vacuum they're three and three they've beaten the bills and they've beaten the Eagles yeah so and they lost and they lost to the Chiefs like 23 to 20 they could have beat the Chiefs on Su could have beat the Chiefs look at look at their resume they played like the best three teams arguably I mean other than maybe the 49ers in the NFL and they beat two of them and they should have probably beaten the third one and Zach Wilson's been their starting quarterback every single game how good is that defense huh that it's really what it is it's the defense but he's at least playing serviceable he's not killing them with bad turnovers and and ruining the field position game he's playing smarter ball and he's slinging it out better and at least he's getting it Garrett Wilson as well as Bree Hall who dominated the workload yet again 12 carries 39 and a touchdown but also five catches 54 yards through the air you'll love to see him getting used that way the true three down back he is just a great another encouraging feather great defense that he's facing there the Eagles to be a top 10 running back against them he was one of our higher lower Hil Mar's definitely came through for us we mentioned ra mandre and Zeke both scoring touchdowns Zeke almost having a a huge day with a 75 y called back the big other takeaway for the patch though is 10 catches on 11 targets for Kendrick Bourne he has had a special relationship with Mack I just don't know how long Mack's gonna be lasting here I wonder if he's gonna get benched at this point but it was good to see Kendrick bour regaining that value that we saw in week one where he dominated really nobody else close to him the next closest guy was Stevenson with six targets uh all the other receivers just complete and distant thirs Hunter Henry we thought could be a reliable tight end one catch seven yards three targets not nothing else other than Kendrick Bourne ra Andre here and even then it's pretty thin uh you don't want pieces of this offense typically and we mentioned Garoppolo got hurt Jacobs 25 carries 77 yards he's been an absolute Workhorse this year but he's been so damn inefficient those long runs not there as they had been the years past this week two catches 16 yards we had been getting better receiving involvement for Jacobs just a hoam medday for him and really the entire offense five catches 61 yards and a touchdown for Meyers the big thing is again out producing Devonte Adams who had just five targets two catches 29 yards seven targets for Myers leading the way not typically what you see even Michael Mayer actually out targeting Devonte Adams six targets for him catches 75 yards a talented kid rookie there out of nor Notre Dame he should be on that way list too so Michael Mayor a guy to keep your eyes on as well oh and then the lion I guess we uh quickly mentioned already David Montgomery got hurt Craig Reynolds did not do much 10 carries 15 yards no scores but did haul in two catches for 28 yards could be a viable streamer given how good this offense is it was more so just the Jared goof show right now the highest scoring quarterback 353 yards two touchdowns uh one of them to Aman rossin Brown 15 targets 12 catches 124 yards and a score and then Jam Williams hauling in a 45 yard bomb great to see him com to life that could be this springboard he had some nice run blocking too you stuff that Dan camell get really fired up about could see him really quickly demanding that every Tom roll we did see him get the same amount of targets as Josh Ryals three catches 50 yards the other big takeaway he's not going to show up fantasy scoring wise leaport just four catches 36 yards but a whopping 11 targets you know I hate that he didn't do more with them but if you see your tight end getting 11 targets you can't feel too bad about about it even though the day was not huge for him all right let's get into the waiver wire real quick uh it's 8:40 right now about nine and a half minutes to go in the Buffalo Giants first quarter it is scoreless right now Jordan Mason at 5% Eli Mitchell at 28% the obvious that the reason those guys are on the list is is pretty obvious with the oblique injury to Christian mcaffrey we don't know how serious it's going to be we don't know if he's going to miss time if he is going to miss time we don't know how much that's going to be but you you introduced me to the term of value holes San Francisco running back is obviously like a major league value hole these are the guys most likely to be filling it if mccy misses any sort of significant amount of time so obviously you know take a stab at one of these guys if you think you know just take a stab roll the dice see what you can do you could do a lot worse yeah we'll definitely have more info on Tuesday I go live 7 PM come to that waiver wire show where we'll get a little bit of a better sense of what mcaffry status is it does seem like Mason the one you want here he played 15 snaps after the injury compared to just two for Eli Mitchell he definitely ran better as well five carries for 27 yards and a touchdown this is backb back weeks here for Jordan Mason with a score the first time though we've seen him play significantly had a Jordan Mitchell Mitchell I mean Eli Mitchell rather here in Mason a 92 and a half PFF grade over these last two seasons I know it's been limited work but he's been really impressive he's a favorite of Grant Cohen one of our guys uh the beat writer there for the 49ers so I really like Jordan Mason if he's going to be uh the lead back here it's looking like if mcaffry is gonna miss any time it's his job to have after him though the next guy on my list would be Kareem hunt he's 36% rostered 12 carries 47 yards in the score running hard looking solid the line in general blowing this 49ers impressive front seven off the ball so great to see this team regaining what they do best three catches for 24 yards as well for Kareem hunt uh the other guy back you want to look at is potentially Keon Ingram he clearly started ahead of Amari de marado he had 12 touches compared to just three for de marado only 20% roster so the reports of him being ahead on the depth chart for kte Ingram were very very much true so definitely something to check there uh if he's out there in your league getting a starting running back and an offense that's not great but certainly can ride a Workhorse you could do worse as a plug-in streamer maybe Craig rynolds also a streamer as well 1% rostered here uh It ultimately comes down to what David Montgomery status is but we know they're not going to want turn the keys completely over to Gibbs even if he is back and Montgomery's out and there's a chance both of them are out in which case Craig Reynolds would be a top Ben running back too potentially the guy has gotten it done when he gets used so something you consider there those are all the running backs we have on our early waiver wire list do you want me just keep ripping through them the next few I'll actually I'll be right back I gotta go take care of something real fast go ahead absolutely sounds good H jsn Jackson Smith and the jigu 48% roster there's a decent J he's not out there in your league although in some of the competitive leag League zond I've seen him dropped he had it the bye last week had done nothing yet the lowest a dot in the league not a a huge day today ultimately had five targets four catches 48 it's his best professional day though so far and 52 snaps compared to 57 for meta 56 for Lockett he was the big thing out there for 39 of the 42 routes he tied Lockett and that ca for rout share so it was clear they schemed him up more for coming out of the buy he didn't do much to disappoint him too again yards four catches his best day H could Pedra had a touchdown mixed in there so it's tough to toss him in quite yet but great to see that jsn is playing right now and if anything happened to either of those lead guys could be a monster for now it's a tough Target share to contend with but I still believe in the talent remember this guy outplayed out produced Chris olve and Garrett Wilson on the same team rashed Shahed 85 yards touchdown big play threat two catches six targets it's a three straight weeks now with six or more targets it doesn't get a ton of the balls hauled in but when he does it seems to be a big play we we said 350 yards for Derek Carr the passing pie is bigging bigger and growing here with him getting healthier Derek Carr and shahid's been a big part of it 62 of the possible 75 snaps there so he is close to an every down player uh behind of course Thomas and Al but the big play threat here looking solid um there for that that that was rased Shahed moving the banners here Wilson leading the team in receiving four targets three catches 62 yards dropped by a lot of people after last week's dud still think there's a chance Maris Brown gets moved at the trade deadline either way we know Wilson has it carved out a role he about at every snap player today uh we he can get done over the middle of the field deep down the the sideline and we've seen two touchdown days out of the kid so if he got dropped by an impatient owner still think he is well worth rostering and then at tight end you mentioned Trey McBride taking over for Zack Herz who is a big fer this week four catches six 62 yards and five targets for Trey McBride looking very very solid out there and wanted to toss out again the we're talking about another rookie tight end um ultimately Michael Mayer there for the Raiders six targets five catches 75 yards a team high in yardage big 32 yard catch making tackles breaking tackles looking great after the reception just like he did with Notre Dame so big stuff there for Michael Mayor nice week as well and then the last one to toss out there is quarterback Garder mchu if you're in a 2qb league or need to buy a weak fill in wasn't pretty but he did throw the ball a whopping 55 times 33 completions for 329 yards one score the three picks were gross can't say it was pretty he took a bunch of sacks a lot of them including one fumble on those it just were his fault he was holding the ball too long but they ultimately what we were hoping to see they kept the the pedal to the medal they kept the pace flying around in 55 pass attempts is no joke the defense continues to blow as well so we know they're going to have to Chuck and keep Pace with other people good to see MCH if you're desperate for a QB L Anthony Richardson who's likely to be out for the year is the latest report here another reason why mchu is on this list he could do you can do worse than a team running the the fourth most plays in the NFL passing the ball right now at a top five overe expectation rate too menchu's got the weapons he's got the arm there'll be better days ahead in my opinion that's it right that's all of it we'll back Rosary drill.com where you can find all our recap I'll update the rest of season Big Board tomorrow I'll have my week seven rankings out there for
