Fantasy Football Podcast for Week 10/11

He almost, I'll need to look at his numbers going throughout the years, but he almost seems like an every other year guy. Oh, because he had that 20 touchdown year. And then the next year, he didn't really score at all. And then the next year was, he had another huge year, which was last year, the first Chip Kelly year. So I'm putting it, it's all, I'm all in on Shady McCoy next year. Yeah. Every other year for the win.

There you go. So, uh, let's, uh, let's actually move on here. Yeah. Put me in, coach. Raw! Yeah, let's talk waiver wire. Big time of year right now. We already talked about C.J. Anderson earlier. He's on our list. Say the fantasy pros. That's right. Yeah, yeah, no, I will. We, uh, we grab the consensus rankings here from fantasypros.com, our favorite fantasy tool. It's a great site. It'll...

rank uh it'll compile all the lists from all the experts give you a good consensus rank that you can head into your waiver wire with and so we got that list we're going to talk through it a little bit ourselves um see which guys that we like and uh at the top of that list i love it i love seeing that guy at the top oh john brown john brown his name may be rather ordinary but his game is rather extraordinary

I liked it. I liked that very much. And I liked the announcer voice that you wanted to. Yeah, John Brown, all he did was come in and save the day for Arizona. Way more targets than Michael Floyd this week. Yeah. And boy, the sky's the limit for this guy going forward. Dynasty leagues, lock them up. A hot stat. For those worried about... I like hot stats. For those worried about Drew Stanton, Drew Stanton has thrown three touchdown passes this year. Oh, I wonder who there's two. All three.

are to John Brown. Oh, snap. So it's not like John plus B equals. Hey, backup quarterback. There you go. Mike, the hitman, the fantasy hitman dropping it. Backup quarterback running with a guy who is running with the second team. A lot of rapport with John Brown. And John Brown can just burn it. He can just burn it downfield. Looks like Marvin Harrison to me. Plays like T.Y. Hilton.

Yeah, I think they got a winner there in Arizona. Really nice pick. After we're done ranting about our guy, let's talk fantasy practicality on him. He is still a wide receiver three boom bust. Yes, I would agree with that. If you need a guy, though, that can give you one big play, I'd much rather be running John Brown out there than I would, I don't know, a middle of the road guy like Ruben Randall. Oh, I'm done with Randall. Yeah.

put out before the Monday night game. So if we're talking receivers, I would put Jordan Matthews at the top of my waiver list. Is he available? Yeah, I think he's pretty available. In a good amount of leagues? I can check on that. Yeah. So next on the list under John Berner Brown is C.J. Anderson, who we've talked about a little bit. Got to give him a shot. You have to add him. That could be a complete. Wow. Jordan Matthews is, guess it's ownership percentage.

40 something. 25% on ESPN leagues. Yeah. So there you go. Grab him. Anderson could be a complete waste of your waiver spot. This is the time of year. I mean, you've got to go for it right now because he is a, he's not just a. He could win your league for you. Yeah, he's a game changing. He could be the No Sean Moreno of this year. Could be. Cecil Shorts is next, and he actually gets a. This was before the news. Yep.

So I would actually add him as well before John Brown. Absolutely. Cecil Shorts had a big week and Alan Robinson is out. Yeah, so all those targets got to go somewhere. And Cecil Shorts is a very gifted receiver. He just is equally gifted at getting hurt. And here's the thing about him. You can probably snag him if you have a bench spot. He's going into a buy week. Yep. But he's the guy that moving forward,

Here's what we know about Jacksonville. They lose, and they lose a lot. And Blake Bortles gets to stretch his arm out for the second half of most of these games. So Cecil Shorts is a guy to consider Kyle Rudolph comes off the injury. Hopefully you were smart and grabbed him. Maybe. I don't know how I feel about him having a lot of relevance in the next couple weeks. They play Chicago this week. Oh, so free touchdowns for everybody?

It looks that way. Have they said if they're going to ease him in, though? I imagine if he plays, you've got to think he's completely ready. Gotcha. Other guys, let's see, on this list that we like. Sims, the jury is still out. They'll give him a shot. Still like Devante Adams a lot, even though he was not used hardly at all in that Bonanza Green Bay explosion of everyone and everyone's grandma gets touchdowns.

against Chicago. Yeah. Alfred Blue, the Foster says he's, yeah, Foster's expected to play, but he's probably expected to get hurt again. Anybody else on this list that you? Only other guy was going to mention was they threw, somehow they put Marcus Wheaton on that list, but did not put Martavis Bryant? His ownership is probably up. I think.

You know what snap counts were on them? No. They were both 59%. Yeah. So it's going up for Bryant of late. But I guess you're right about his ownership percentage. I think their threshold is 60% on Yahoo. You know, his percentage is 60.4%. There you go. So there you go. So that's why he wasn't on the list. The only interesting name for me is Damien Williams, the backup running back for the dolphins, just in case Lamar Miller is unable to go. Sure.

Yeah, Thursday night game. So for the Miller owners who are in desperate scramble mode, he might be a guy to hold on to... Not Thomas. No. No, I'm not... Fumbulitis. I'm not starting Daniel Thomas. A... And there was a resurgence of Brent Selleck. I don't... Is that Sanchez... That's just... Just the game? Outlier. You think? I do. Okay. I think you got to give it a couple games before we would see anything else. Is there anybody else that's really...

Standing out to you, let's get into the fun stuff here. Starts of the week. Starts of the week. Everybody's favorite section. We give you one start from every position. Mike and I both give you one, and you can choose to go with his or the better option, mine. Last week had some hits and some misses. That's right. Some big hits. I don't have the list in front of me.

I know Sanchez was a big hit for me, and our defense is both just destroyed. Yeah. I think I had Arizona and you had the Ravens, I believe. But anyway, so. Pretty good week on a few of them. We try not to throw obvious starts, even though, like, hey, you know who actually could make this list now? Aaron Rogers. LaShawn McCoy. Oh, you're right. He could. He's finally eligible. Sheesh.

All right, so quarterback, I'm throwing out Teddy Bridgewater versus the Chicago Bears. The Vikings are coming off a by. Kyle Rudolph is said to be back. Chicago has given up 11 touchdowns in the last two weeks. They are the first team since the 1927 Rochester Jayhawks to give up 50 plus points. A big Jayhawk guy. Yeah, you are. I know. You got one of their old leather jerseys. I don't know why they're leather.

My quarterback start of the week, I'm going with RG3. I'm going to take Robert Griffin the 3 versus Tampa, mostly because Tampa gives up passing touchdowns. Two plus TDs to quarterbacks every game but won this year, 27th versus the pass. And coming off the buy, a little more rapport with his receivers. I like what I see out of RG3 this week. That is bold. At least I have a case for win. I'm still very tepid on Griffin.

My running back, I'm going with Frank Gore. I don't like it. That's fair? I mean, I'm just saying. No, that's fine. I thought about him and I don't like it. Frank Gore looked, he looked pretty good in that Saints game. He looked more goryan, if you will. That's what the word is, yeah. It's a real word. Look it up. He's playing the New York Giants.

Now, I'm not sure if you remember what happened to the New York Giants this past week against a Seattle team. But they've given up a running back touchdown in all but two games. Now, I will preface this with Hyde. Hyde also had a touchdown last week. I thought he looked really good, too. He did look good, and he could take the work, but I still think that they will go with the veteran.

and he'll get his touches, and I think Gore scores. I like it. I went with Amad. Gore scores in seven years ago. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, that's why they call you. The hit man. Ahmaud Bradshaw versus New England. Amad Bradshaw versus New England. This is a bit of a gut call, but New England gives up a lot of points to running backs, and the odds of a shootout in this game, I'm looking forward to this game. This game and...

the Green Bay game are going to be fantasy gold for a lot of players, I think. And so you've got guys, you know, I just think Andrew Luck's going to have to throw the ball a lot. And when Andrew Luck throws the ball, Bradshaw is out there in pass protection. He's on the field. He takes screens. He gets it around the goal line. I like Bradshaw. I can see that. Andrew Luck does throw the ball about 84 times a game. It's ridiculous. And he's coming off a bye, too. So moving on.

Wide receiver. This goes along with your RG3. I'm taking the likely thrown away into the garbage, because that's what he's been all year. Pierre Garsohn. They're playing Tampa Bay. They're the worst fantasy defense against receivers in the league. People might not remember this, but Garsohn was either one or two.

and caught passes last year. I can't remember. Oh, he was great. And he was with RG3. Yeah. And maybe Griffin, I'm hoping Griffin, he's shaking some of that dust off, and he can start getting Garsohn involved in those short little slant routes. Nice. I like it. I'm going to go with maybe an unexpected pick here. This guy killed this last week. I know. I know. I'm going to go with Muhammad Sunu this week.

Um, New Orleans is not great against the past. It's true. I like Sunu to bounce back. He's double digits in fantasy points in six of his eight games. Yes, AJ Green's back in the mix, but I just think I'm betting on Marvin Lewis and that team having a bounce back game. Am I 100% sure? No, I'm not. Because that was a really bad performance last week, but Sunu might be somebody that, um,

I think he's a good start this week. I have still not forgiven Marvin Lewis for what he did to me and my teams and my time on Thursday night. I'm not sure when he will get out of the hitman doghouse. Yeah. But it is a... Sunu's been great all year. That is just... That is hard to go from the...

the awfulness of, I think he had three points in our league. Yeah, that passing offense just wasn't functioning. And going back to him. Tight-in pick? Anyways, so tight-in, I'm taking another guy. I'm surprised at this. But I can see why. I mean, the game. One, I'm trying to get, tight ends are difficult in that there's, I mean, there's five or six guys who you start every week, and then just a bunch of hurl of rock had a,

at a piece of cow dung and hope one gets a touchdown. I'm going back in on this Washington, Tampa game because they both have just not very good defenses, which leads to points. I'm taking Austin, Seperian Jenkins, the new triple threat, triple name, triple threat. Last week was 5 for 30 and 1. I don't know what his targets were off the top of my head.

But I know that Washington has allowed, in the last two games, six plus catches, 75 plus yards and a touchdown to the tight end position. And it was nice to see McCown get Jenkins involved. I know Tampa really likes him. They like him so much that they got rid of Tim Wright at the beginning of the year. He got in a little trouble this week. Tim Wright or Jenkins? No, what did he do?

He Instagrammed his touchdown celebration when they were getting beat up. But I like the pick. Yeah. So let's stream him out there. Yeah. For me, I went with a, I took a leap. I'm going Kobe Fleener against New England. He came on a little bit last game. This is a gut call. New England isn't exceptionally good or bad against the tight end. They're right in the middle of the pack. But this is a gut call. If you want to trust Andy from the fantasy footballers.
