The Fantasy Footballers Podcast with your host, Andy Holloway, Jason Moore, and Mike Wright. Oh, welcome in. It's a wonderful day. In the neighborhood? Neighborhood, City.

I thought you were doing a little Mr. Rogers action. Training camp. Wednesday, August 19th, the fantasy footballers podcast. Back with you. Mike, the fantasy hitman Wright, is present, accounted for varying degrees of facial hair. You never know these days. What's going to happen? The rest of your hair is long. Your face hair is short. That's what they call it, face hair. Your face hair.

It's a teen wolf situation. Jason Moore also here. Nice face hair, Jay. Thank you. I've been working on it for a while. I am just, I don't know if you guys know this. I am so excited for tomorrow's episode. Why is that, Jason? Tomorrow's my guy's episode, and I am a red day. Oh, man. Today would have been a good day. Had...

Brooks accepted any of my trade offers that I assaulted him with in our dynasty league. Well, if they were as good as what you gave me, I don't blame you, Brooks. But he did not. And so I'm dealing with rejection today. We have a great show for you. We're doing some buy-sell, talking about Mark Ingram, which I think will be valuable, important, looking forward. We all watched episode two of Hard Knocks. Oh, yeah. Got the juices flowing. They put the pads on for the last...

Four minutes of the episode. The helmets. The helmets on. Yeah. Oh, man. That was fun to watch football. I think the last thing on this earth Mike wants is any sort of pads and coverings because A.J. Dillon won't be wearing those short shorts anymore. And Mike, I mean, AJ Dillon was. Oh, crap. Someone on the Rams. Oh, dang it. Somebody else had quads that you approved. No, no, no. But someone. Oh, Keenan Allen. Keenan was rocking the short shorts, my man.

They're making a comeback. And also, to all the haters out there, those L.A. Rams jerseys and helmets looked hot. They were hot. I agree. Yeah, the helmets and the jerseys are great. They're great. I'm not, you know how the Hard Knocks has their big, like, logo banner, and it's like Los Angeles, and they got the Chargers? And then they got that RAM. That one is still, that one's still not quite grown on me. All right. Looks a little bit. That's okay. Like some clip art or something.

But, you know, the helmets are amazing. It's modern. Sure, sure. All right. You can find us on YouTube. YouTube.com slash the fantasy footballer. Subscribe. Click that bell.

It's time for some buy sell. Buy or sell. Presented by pristine auction. All right. Buy or sell. Mark Ingram 11 total touchdowns in the upcoming 2020 season. Buy or sell 11 total touchdowns last year.

Case you're curious, Mark Ingram had 15 total touchdowns in 15 games. He was a touchdown machine. Including five receiving touchdowns on only 26 receptions, which I don't know if you know this. That's not happening again. That's not happening again. I'm sure that has never happened to before. Correct. So this is an interesting stat line because Pristian auction has given us the option to buy or sell and I don't know what to do.

Because I have Mark Ingram stat it out, and I have him right at 11. I have him on 11 touchdowns as well. I've got him down for nine rushing and two receiving. I'm eight rushing, three receiving. But yeah, I mean, so Andy, you're going to have to be the one to buy or sell here. Now, to pull back a little bit, if we have him at 11, that is a great year. There's been a lot of talk on the Twitter sphere about the touchdown regression that will come for Mark Ingram.

That is true. But if he regresses to 11, he is still a value where he's going in drafts right now. If Christian McCaffrey had that same efficiency in the passing game, he would have had 22 and a half receiving touchdowns last year. No, I'm buying. I'm buying Mark Ingram with 11 total touchdowns. I'm not certain that regression will happen for Mark Ingram and the touchdown totals. Like, I mean, this is one of the best offenses in football.

Lamar Jackson's touchdown efficiency was insane last season. A lot of people expecting that to go from 34, 35 touchdown, or what do you have? 34 last year. To go back down to 25, 26. 36 last year. Passing? Yes. Okay. So I think that there's every opportunity for Mark Ingram to go double digits rushing touchdowns again, 10, 11, 12. They're talking up J.K. Dobbins.

in Baltimore. Dobbins is great, but I do think that rookie year, when you get down near the goal line, the efficiency they had with Mark Ingraham, I don't see why they would take the vet off the field in that portion of the field. He's always had a nose for the goal line. I think Mark Ingraham is, I think he's got that job on lockdown. And I love Dobbins. He's the future there. The question mark for Ingram, to me, is just outside of touchdowns.

What's the volume look like? What does the yardage total look like? Is he more of a touchdown dependent? You start him. He scores. You're happy. He doesn't score. You're not happy type of player, which depending on how you're building your roster, you might be fine with a running back like that at the value point. A running back like that in the second round, you're not happy about it. But Mark Ingram, who is often a fifth, even sometimes a sixth round running back.

Then, yeah, I'll take the chances. Forty third in routes run among running backs second in receiving touchdowns. Oh, he's very good. I'd be certain that those numbers come down in the receiving game. Well, I mean, imagine being near the goal line. And then Lamar Jackson is rolling out. What do you do? I mean, it's not a coincidence that you have this incredible rushing quarterback who can then.

Just as they collapse to sell out to stop him, which they have to do, he throws the ball forward a foot and Ingram takes it the rest of the way. So that's why I've still got him with three receiving touchdowns. That play is going to work. Yeah, and again, they had a pretty decent season, guys. I don't think that they have a real reason to bring Mark Ingram off the field. They paid him as an offseason acquisition. They're going to use them up, you know, that running back shelf life. And Ingram's just.

a machine. Speaking of pristine auction, Mark Ingram signed Ravens jersey $44 yesterday. They're doing a, tomorrow's the last day of their fantasy week where all of their memorabilia auctions, they have a special auction for fantasy football stars, including Mark Ingram. Bidding starts at $20. So you can actually, that's basically stealing product away from pristine auction. Check them out. Pristine auction.com. Use the code ballers. It's new news.

News and Notes from Around the League. The biggest news is obviously the My Guy episode tomorrow. Oh, yeah, huge news. I'm not to say that this episode sucks, but tomorrow's is so much. No, no, this episode is actually great, but it does suck. Compared to the My Guys episode, which has not even been recorded yet. Right, like if those were the only two episodes, this one is the worst. Yeah, they made me listen to that crap. What a dump.

It might be the worst just because of this news. The Eagles have listed Miles Sanders as week to week with a lower body injury. That scared me a little bit. That was pretty loud. The news or the alarm? Both. Very loud news. Miles Sanders week to week. This was like mere moments after yet another, you're the guy, heist train. Deuce Staley.

He's treading on some dangerous waters here, getting people this pumped up for Miles Sanders. I posted in our Slack channel. I said, oh, man, I'm getting those Changayley, CJ Spiller. We're going to give him the ball until he pukes vibes of either this coach is now the most, like Deuce Daly's will be the most beloved man in all of fantasy football if they, in fact, follow through and give Miles Sanders all those carries. Or he.

gets, you know, most of them, and people will be not pleased with Mr. Staley. If you go back to our fire and ice, I was championing for the truth of what Duce Staley was saying. I believe it wholeheartedly. I think Miles Sanders is an absolute top pick. He's a great first rounder. He's going to be a great back. The one way that gets derailed is his body. Is a week to week lower body injury? Is his body isn't able to sustain what they do.

want and plan to give him. And obviously he missed a little bit of time last year. And now week to week, it's, it's certainly not what you want to give you confidence that he can handle the workload. No, it's bad. And Boston Scott wasn't available. So Corey Clement is running with the ones. That's what we have in Philadelphia. Welcome to Philadelphia again. Excellent. Land of the Greg wards and Corey. We're back. We're back, baby. It sucks. And all the hype for Miles Sanders, it's at a level that's.

Christian McCaffrey ask of, you know, what he can do in this offense. And now, like Jason said, you don't get to use him as a workhorse that he's hurt. I look forward to knowing what this is because, you know, is this an MCL sprain or is this a hamstring? There's, you know, a lower body injury is all we know as of this recording. I don't like that. I want more deets. Mike Garofalo is the one that reported it first. Lower body injury. His.

take was, quote, I don't sense any great concern, but he'll miss some time as the team is making sure players stay as healthy as possible. It's a good philosophy for most teams. It's week to week. The great news is he has, you know, week to week until the season starts. Yeah. Nick Chubb is in the concussion protocol, which is what all concussions lead to. Yep. We do have some time there as well.

Ryan Fitzpatrick, the clear starter right now in Miami. As expected. You could get some real run with Devante Parker early in the year, even if things get murky later on. This was the dead last offensive line last season. They are ranked dead last going into this year, but there is some significant investment on that offensive line so that could transform during the season. Preston Williams, practice with no restrictions on Monday.
