Carson Palmer and Andy Dalton and even at Derek Carr, who I really do like this week, even though everyone seems to be on board with him. Yeah, he's, I believe, one of our starts of the week today, too, in the show. So let me, I got about a minute left. I want to give you the chance. Are there any other values guys people should know about? Give us the Gary Barnages of the world today, Chris. And we won't hold you to that kind of perfection standard. But who are some guys that are sticking out there for you?

52:16 ↗

Certainly Cleveland hasn't been able to stop the run. Melvin Gordon, 6-8. I like Danny Wood at a little bit cheaper. He's 6-1. I think Carlos Williams is almost a must-play this week at 6-3. It doesn't look like LeShall McCoy is going to play. And, you know, we're trying to be contrarian, we try to be a little bit different. And I thought last week, well, you can't play Joseph Randall and you can't play Devante Freeman because everyone's going to have them. Well, if you had them both in your lineup, you ended up with 60-plus vandal points in your way.

52:40 ↗

So I think Carlos Williams is a nice play this week. I also think Latavius Murray, who I touched on. Cooper at 7-2. If you want to stay away from Cooper, you think everyone's going to go, Cooper, why not Crabtree at 5-8? I don't think Chicago can really cover anyone. Michael Crabtree at 5-8. I still like James Jones at 6,000. Moncrief I touched on last week. I like him at 6-3. Alan Robinson, a guy to throw out there at 6-5. I think, you know, the Colts are going to put up some points, and I expect Jacksonville to try to do the same. If I'm going to look at a Gary Barnage, it might be Kobe 5.

53:09 ↗

Cleaner 4-9. He seems to have good games when Dwayne Allen's not around. And I do like Ty Montgomery. I want a piece of that Green Bay offense. Aaron Rogers going back, as I mentioned, he's going to be a popular play too, going back home at Cal, playing in San Francisco, a team that passed on drafting him. I know sometimes it's nothing, but sometimes these players do have chips on their shoulder. They want to prove something. Not like Rogers needs to. I was going to say if Rogers is proving something, we're talking six, seven touchdowns because the normal Rogers not proving something is about four or five. Absolutely.

53:38 ↗

If you want to take a shot on somebody that is going to save some budget, save some cash, I think Time Montgomery could be that guy at 4-7. Obviously, James Jones may be a popular playing club as well. Yeah, and Jason will like hearing that Time Montgomery name. So, hey, we really appreciate you coming on the show yet again. Great insight. We've been pointing people to you for DFS. What's your Twitter handle?

53:59 ↗

It's at Chris Meenie, C-H-R-I-S-M-E-A-N-E-Y. I appreciate you guys having me on the show, and thanks for everything. All right, take care, Chris. We'll talk to you next week. All right, buddy. Cheers. All right, thanks again to Chris Meany for joining us on the show today to talk some DFS. A lot of good insights there. Gary Barnage was such an incredible pick last week. Chris Meany is a meanie when it comes to picking DFS guys. Wow.

54:25 ↗

Well, you didn't really put that together very well. That was a bumper sticker. You could have said Meany. Meany is the man-e. He's the man-y? That would be worse. I think we're digging on our hole here. Let's get. Jason, you go. What? Chris Meany's slogan. Oh, all right. Chris Meany is so awesome. Mail back. I thought we were digging the hole and making it worse and worse. Success. You dropped a nuclear bomb in the hole.

54:59 ↗

Weren't you an improv guy once? You destroyed the world. Yeah, that's my background. And you said that you never didn't get laughs. No, I thought we were digging the whole worst. I think mine was the worst. Agreed. All right, welcome to the mailbag section. If you have a question, go to the website, the fantasy footballers.com, click to submit a question button.

55:18 ↗

And we will answer it. We'll do our best. We get through as many questions as we can every week. We know you have your own fantasy face-off questions on your team, who to start, who to sit, who to sign off waivers, those type of things. You can also call and leave us a voicemail, message 302-464 TFFB. All right, John in Florida wants to know who should he start in his flex. Jordan Reed or Richard Matthews against the Jets defense. I'm going to play, oh, man. I play Jordan Reed. I'm going to play Jordan Reed. Yep.

55:48 ↗

He gets tons of targets. Two goal on targets last week. Didn't come down with him, but he'll get targeted. Yeah, and the Jets defense, man, that's a tough match. Is your opinion on Jordan Reed changed when D.Jax gets back, which might be next week? No. I think it stays similar. All right, Marty in Bodymore. Bodymore. Body more.

56:10 ↗

I probably know how it's pronounced, but I'm going to read it that way. Really enjoy the show. I have Macklin and Moncrief as my two options at the flex spot in a PPR league. Who are you taking? I'm going to go with, even with Andrew Luck's shoulder, my start of the week in Moncrief over Macklin. I don't like the Cincinnati matchup that Macklin has. Moncrief. Give me Macklin and give me a water bed if you want it. I try to make one Jeremy Maclin bet per week. Yeah.

56:40 ↗

And I'm glad to accept them. Sure. I mean, he was dominant last week. Eric and Murrietta, California. I don't care. It counts. Hey, guys, I love your show. Quick question for you. In a standard league, would you start Ruben Randall or Brandon Cooks? Ooh. It's easy for me. You're at Cooks? Yes. It's not easy for me. I'm, I hesitantly go with Cooks, but I don't. I go with Buffalo defense? Yeah. Yeah, I'm going with Cooks.

57:09 ↗

All right. I just am very disappointed. Jason, what did you say? I said cooks, yeah. Kirk wants to know he has an RB and a flex spot open with the following available. Foster, Gore, Moncrief, is that? I assume is Charles. Johnson. And Devanta Freeman. Hmm. Arby and a flex spot. Well, Foster, you got to play if he starts, right? Yeah, it's either Fostering Gore or I think Gore and Freeman. Yep, I can dig it. Does it change at all if it was the PBR?

57:37 ↗

No. No, because Freeman's going to get targets. Yep. All right. We also want to remind you about our fantasy football community at join thefoot.com. You can go on to join thefoot.com, join the community. We've got over 600 people in there. We added some funny goals. Oh, we need to talk about this goal. There are certain goals that can be met that make us do ridiculous things like.

58:00 ↗

do an eight-hour Twitter bench, which will happen next week. Is shortly approaching. We have just added another goal because there has been, we've taken notice. We've taken notice of Foot Clan complaining of our paleness. Yep. And people think, well, you're in Arizona. Shouldn't you be very tan in Arizona? The sun. No, because you die. You go outside and you die. You want melanoma go outside. We get winter tans here, okay? Not summer tan. We all have.

58:30 ↗

timers like the government hands on a timer that every time you go outside your timer starts clicking and if it reaches a threshold you know you're going to die yep so you have to get back inside yep and we're also in here doing fantasy football 24 hours a day so we don't have time for that they're getting to the point if we reach our next goal the three of us are going to get spray tans oh it would be so

58:52 ↗

Terrible. And we will document it. And we will be... Are we going to get the, like, person... I believe we're calling this... We're calling this goal the spray tan slash Hasselhoff. Yeah, we got to... Yeah. We'll just come in and do a show like an oompa lumpa. Just completely orange. That's also known as the Trump. Yeah. Yes. I have concerns of... I have done very well. Of my beard. Like, what do they do for the... People have praised me.

59:18 ↗

Yeah, I know. I don't know. It should just wash out of the beard. Or maybe they put like one of those medical things over the beard. What I want to do is I want to get the orange spray tan and then shave and then just have a white beard. Have a white skin beard. Oh, man. There you go. So let's make this happen. Jointhefoot.com. We'll answer that question. Forget about the budding community of fantasy players and the insights that you can get.

59:45 ↗

We'll be back here next week talking about everything that's happened this weekend and my hopeful victory over Mike. And we have the standing versus waterbed. Oh, that's right.
