Fantasy Football 2017 - Title Talk, Studs & Duds, Week 17 Waivers

Oh, man. I would grab Antonio Gates. I think I would too. Him and Philip Rivers has a, you know, they have a connection. Yeah, they've got that connection. He gets to play Oakland who has been terrible against the tight end on the season. That's where I think I would lean, but Eric Ebron is not a bad second place if Antonio Gates is not available. I agree. Okay. Outside of that, we're going to go ahead and jump into.

What, we got quarterback streamers now? You got to give them. Cool. Cool. What is a quarterback streamer anyway? Quarterback streamer is one of those players you can grab off the waiver. Full stream ahead. You know, I know we'll just leave that in there. And the thing is, is today's show has like two shows packed into one. That's a lot of drops to keep track up. Many Ladon. And many of you out there, you don't know this, but when I...

when I try to do a sound drop on the show, there's a lot of levers and dials involved. It's not as simple as pushing a button that has a label on it. The best part of this. Turn the crank and is that Andy Holloway is one of the most organized people I know in my entire life, and he refuses to organize the soundboard in a way that is manageable. You're dead on with that one. It doesn't make sense. It really doesn't.

And you all get the benefit. Full stream ahead this week. I'm going with Jimmy G. Oh, Jimmy G takes on the Rams. That's a handsome stream. It's a handsome stream. All right. Jimmy GQ against Los Angeles. He's just been good. And I think it'll continue against Los Angeles this week. He's going on the road. But if you need somebody, you know, it's slim pickings down below that 50% ownership line at the quarterback position. I'll go with Jimmy G. Yeah, I'm going to go with last week's pump the brakes on Tyrod Taylor.

which came through no touchdowns, but he's going to- 281 yards this past week. Yeah, which is a lot for Tyrod. And playing for a playoff berth. Yeah, he's got, you know, something to play for and going to Miami, I think he's going to be fine because of the rushing yardage. And I'm just taking the easy one here because you got to stay with this. I mean, you have to stay in the flames that is Blake.

Bortle. There's no way I'm playing Tyrod Taylor or even Jimmy G who I love over Bortle. Bortle's is the ultimate stream. He gets to play the Tennessee Titans. We just gave up four touchdowns to Jared Gough. Yeah. So Blake Bortles is to play. And just in case your waiver wire is very shallow. Joe Flacko was at home against the Bengals. They are playing for the playoffs. And Joe Flacco has been a very usable fantasy quarterback. And Jacoby, where's the beef?

Brissette is at home against the Texans. So they are solid consolation prizes, I think. I agree. Week 17 with Jacoby Brissette at quarterback. That is a fantasy football nightmare. That's what you get for playing week 17. That is absolutely accurate and true. Yeah, there you go. That is it for today's episode. We'll be back tomorrow. We'll talk about some playoff scenarios. And we'll get into the mailbag and do a bunch of other stuff on tomorrow's show, including pump the brakes. And look, congratulations.
