Got him at 24 myself. That's right where I have them as well. It is also a coincidence that the last three games, the Eagles have been slowing things like it, it's slowed down for the team. It's not running on all gears. I don't know. They need to get rid of Golden Tate. Yeah, maybe. Or maybe they need to target their number one wide receiver a little bit more.

56:50 ↗

Would you rather flex Josh Adams or Alshan Jeffrey? Josh Adams, his snaps growing the last four weeks, 29% 31, 55. Yeah. Nice. And then 62%. I would definitely lean Josh Adams. The fact that his workload has increased. 22 carries last week. 22 carries last week there at home. I would go with the volume that is known over Alshan. Mike, your start of the week was.

57:17 ↗

Rule 86 himself. Jordan Reed. Yeah. Third most passing rounds last week. Yeah. At the tight end position, 8.6 targets per game since week 8. Colt McCoy has resurrected him for fantasy purposes. He was just starting to get going with Alex Smith, too. I mean, I just mean it speaks more to, yes, Cole McCoy resurrected him, but I think he was also getting a little healthier. Yeah, it takes times for the floppy toes. Dude.

57:46 ↗

To start solidifying. We grow bones again. I also, I'm going to throw a name out there that sounds gross, but I think Josh Doxon could have a pretty good week. Six for 66 last week with Colt McCoy. The Philadelphia Eagles secondary is gone. You know, I would not be surprised if Josh Doxon got it together, had a nice fantasy out this week. Right now, Jason, I just want to confirm this for the, for the foot clean.

58:12 ↗

You believe that Josh Doxon is a good player. Are you trying to goat me into playing him against you in our dynasty match? Who are your other options? I'm not going to tell you. I thought this might be a con. No, this is not a con. I do think Josh Doxon could be a good play this week. You could argue he had his best game as a pro last week, even though he didn't have the touchdown, just because of his involvement. Yes. It was different. And it was with a new quarterback. If that quarterback is actually using him as his number one wide receiver target against a team who is

58:42 ↗

near dead last against the wide receiver could work out. We got to jump into Daily Dose. I need a Matt Bryant update from Jason Moore. Oh, yeah. Matt Bryant is doing great from what I can tell. He's been resting. Now, he's your boom, boom, super locked and loaded. Oh, totally ironclad, man. Now, other news. Other news. Other news.

59:04 ↗

He hasn't practiced in two days. He's very, very, very questionable for the game. Yeah, like I said, he's resting up. He's got a big game, a lot of boom, boom kicks. Here's what I would do if I was a Matt Brian owner. Okay? I'd probably grab someone else. I would probably, I mean, he's going to be great. He's going to do excellent, but definitely grab another kicker just to be, you know, be on the safe side. Yeah, that makes sense. The Daily Dose. Brought to you by draft.

59:36 ↗

All right, it's another episode edition of the Daily Dose. Episode edition. That's what we call them now. Jason, he's defogged. Yeah. What do they call it in the car? I actually did defraud. Defrost? Defrost. There you go. He's defrosted. I've defrosted. When things are frosted and fog, it's two very different elements of weather at play. You have fog on the inside because of the cold on the outside. It took an hour. Right?

60:07 ↗

Yes, that does happen. It took an hour and 45 minutes from the end of my workout. It's because of your heat mixing with the cold of the outside. Until I was able to cool down. So one hour and 45 minutes post workout. Is that a new record? I'm a human. No, that's pretty normal. That's just part for the course. So for this daily dose, we are.

60:26 ↗

Limiting the matchups. We're not going with all of them. We're going with the afternoon and the possible primetime games. And, oh, Andy fell right into the trap that I was hoping you would fall into. I took that my homes. What a trap it is. What an idiot. When you fall into that trap, 37. Down at the bottom, there's like, you know, a three-course meal and a bed. Like, you fall in that trap, it's like paradise. Okay. So to me, I was just with the trap, there are, there's great quarterbacks.

60:56 ↗

Available. Patrick Mahomes is the clear number one option, but... So who did you go with then, Mike, after he took Mahomes? I took Kareem Hunt. Okay, so here's what's fun. After he took Mahomes... You fell into my trap. And Mike took Kareem Hunt. I thought, I'm going to take Tyreek Hill. And you know what? Let's make this crazy interesting. I took Travis Kelsey. You score. I score. So, Andy's not going to win.

61:24 ↗

As we have all of his receiving options. No, you're just, all your receiving options are nullified. I took James Connor and Matt Berita after, well, it looks like Hitman took Thielen. I did. And then I took Brita and Connor back to back in these primetime games. Yeah, Thielen, look, everything points to Thielen having a monster game. The New England Patriots, it's tough. It's tough sledding for them against slot wide receivers these days. And the only hesitance with him is,

61:53 ↗

The fact that we talked about it, Bill, Uncle Bill, it's pretty good at figuring out how to shut your number one option down. I just don't know if you can shut down Adam Thielen. All right, Jason, you, uh, I, uh, I was done with my wide receiver slash tight end. So now I've got to decide between, uh, running backs or quarterback. And I have my start of the week in Chris Carson, uh, back on my roster. And I'm going to put Josh Adams out there at home with the 22 carries last week.

62:23 ↗

So my running backs are full. Mike also took Echler before you took those two picks. I went ahead with Mike took Antonio Brown. And then I took Juju and Josh Gordon as my whiteouts. Mike, you're on the clock. Yeah. And man, what a world. We live in where we're doing this draft with limited games. And Andy and I grab Antonio Brown and Juju in the fourth round. I finished up my team with Kirk Cousins. So I have that cream.

62:52 ↗

or Kurt Cousins, Adam Thielen, stack. So my team is Cousins. Cream Hunt, Austin Echler, Adam Thielen, and Antonio Brown. I grabbed my start of the week at quarterback as well. Russell Wilson stacking with Chris Carson, Josh Adams, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelsey. So I got two Seahawks and two Chiefs. Interesting. Pat Mahomes, Matt Breda, James Connor, Juju Smith, Schuster, and then I went Josh Gordon.

63:19 ↗

All right. For a big game up there with Josh Gordon versus taking the chance with Stefan Diggs, the potential he could miss the game.
