blacklisting him like j brown like sammy wakins uh j brown sammy wakins or nelson agalore yeah that's what i mean nelson agor yeah there you go on the other side of the ball though give me sammy are you saying jason agelar versus sammy wakins bet yes are we doing another one oh water bed oh yeah give me all the bottom feeding bets i can get oh man i just

69:34 ↗

To me, I just want you to suffer at Sammy's hand. And I will take any chance in provision to do so. Yeah, that's fine. Nelson Aguilar is my wide receiver 60. What do you do on the other side of the ball with the wide receivers? Eli coming back. Stirling Shepard. The Eagles can be beat at the wide receiver position. It looked like they were starting to get things together and then New England and Miami.

69:59 ↗

came through and kind of I've found some cracks in the defense once again. I just bet on Nelson Aguilar. Are you realizing what you're waking up? What am I done? Every bet for me is only against Sammy. I didn't even put it into my head that I just bet on Nelson Aguilar to do something. All right. Sorry, Mike, to submarine the conversation. It's all right. I think you can play Shepherd and it's tough to.

70:29 ↗

get Darius Slayton in there who, like if Daniel Jones was the quarterback, I would have at least some mild interest in Darius Slayton, who's been very good as a rookie. But now with the switch back to Eli, I know he'll throw it to Shepard. And I know he'll throw it to Evan Engram, who is supposed to be back. I think Golden Tate's undervalued this week. And I would play masked by the concussion, but he's practicing in full. I would rather play Tate than Darius Slayton. Yeah, I would be willing to play Shepard and Golden Tate.

70:58 ↗

I'm not playing Darius Slayden, and this might be surprising. I'm not going to play Evan Ingram. I'm a little bit more worried about Evan Ingraham coming off of the injury. You know, this isn't a great plus matchup anyways. No, Eagles top 10 against opposing tight ends. Exactly. So in a difficult matchup, right off the injury, while there are other Jack Doyle-esque. And it's Monday night. I mean, your method with not playing Ingram is the...

71:25 ↗

Definitely the easiest one for fantasy owners. You don't need to have a Monday night backup plan. Right. I mean, let's just pretend you do going to Monday night and you've got Ingram and Dallas Goddard. And Ingram's active. Do you want to play? Who do you want to play? Right. If they're both active, I would probably prefer Dallas Goddard, but it's close. Now, let's say Evan Ingram is...

71:47 ↗

inactive and warmups. It didn't work out as well as they thought. And so he's gone. And now you're rolling Rhett Ellison against a really good top 10 tight in defense. Maybe Rhett. Is Rhett healthy? Well, sure. He's missed the past two weeks. Oh, Caden Smith. Yeah. Caden Smith. Who Caden Smith actually. Has Caden Smith run around with Eli Manning on the field before in his career? That I probably not. Can I tell you. Bye.

72:11 ↗

Yeah. I can tell you, though, that he had six for 70 last week. Ingram has upside that other tight-ins don't have because he's explosive. But you're also talking about, you know, you're splitting the pie up. Okay, well, you know, Shepherd's interesting. And Sequin needs. Oh, yeah. Nice enough. It was pretty good. But there's just too many, you know, Sequin, more targets. Shepherd, Tate, Slayton. And now you're talking about having an Ingram in a matchup that I don't like. It's just not.

72:40 ↗

Make it easier on yourself this week, I would say. There's some other streaming options that I prefer. Mike, do you wait on Ingram or do you just play Gisickey? You seem like the most sympathetic to Ingram starting. Because Engram, I mean, I'm a little biased because I drafted him into Dynasty League. So he has a soft spot in my heart because I've experienced the massive games that Evan Engram can give you. I think I would play Gisickey, though. Yeah, I mean, there's just still a chance that Ingram gets re-injured. Yeah.

73:13 ↗

Ballers on a Budget, presented by Fandul. All right, go to fandle.com slash ballers, enter the Fantasy Footballers Leaderboard series for this week. My ballers on a budget pick. It's Emmanuel Sanders at just 5,900 Buccaroos against New Orleans.

73:35 ↗

Emmanuel Sanders runs from the slot so often. I think it's over 40% of the time for San Francisco. He was on the field for 98% of snaps last week. I think he's being undervalued this week. Everybody's eyes on Debo Samuel. There's no reason this can't be in Emmanuel Sanders week, and he is cheap. So I'm going to take my shot on him against New Orleans. I worry because of the three-way pie split between Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders, and Debo about this. But at the same time, there's, you know,

74:04 ↗

If Latimore is really going to be more on Debo, who's been the breakout outside guy, and then you've got Emmanuel Sanders in the slot, it makes sense for, you know, look, you expect New Orleans to be able to score and have to have more fantasy going back and forth. I'm going to... He's 200 cheaper than your guy. He is 200 cheaper than my guy, but my guy is...

74:29 ↗

Boom bust extraordinaire. Zach Pascal at $6,100. If I'm playing in a tournament like this tournament with us at fandle.com slash ballers, and you're wanting to be in the top five or win the week,

74:46 ↗

Taking a cheap shot on someone like Zach Pascal against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You're talking double digit targets last week, a touchdown, plenty of yards. You can get that from him. You would take a cheap shot, Jason. Absolutely. Cheap shots to win. All right. Mike, your ballers on a budget pick. With Greg Olson dealing with the concussion, I am projecting Greg Olson to not play. So I will take the free square at the tight end position, Ian Thomas, who in relief of Greg Olson.

75:16 ↗

He barely played the game, but he came in immediately for four targets. Greg Olson has been utilized in this offense, and I think Ian Thomas is the primary benefactor at the position. If Greg Olson doesn't play, he's only 4,000. He is the type of guy you need to play to unlock the high-priced options. So I'll take Ian Thomas. I'll take my lumps. I'm not saying he's going to burn the house down with fancy points, but I'm saying he will repay you.

75:45 ↗
