Fantasy Football Podcast 2015 - Week 14 Matchups, Daily Dose, Mailbag

But again, seven catches in the past two weeks, you know, 80 yards in the touchdown on the one, 63 and a touch on the other one, and a terrific grab in the end zone too. This guy's a really, really talented player. And I remember listening to you guys earlier in the year talk about how he could be last year's Odell Beckham Jr. A guy who has suffered an injury, missed the first few weeks, takes a little bit of time to learn the playbook, get in there, get a feel. So, I mean, I like him a lot at that price point for sure. And let's wrap it up with some tight ends. What are you doing?

to fill that void now that the man Rob Grunkowski is out. He's very unlikely to return this week. What are you doing there? Yeah, the tight-end position, I mean, again, it's safe with Greg Olson. He's always really safe. You're going to pay up for him 6-6. You know, I do like Travis Kelsey. I just think San Diego is just not a great secondary. On the flip side of that, I still like Macklin. People are not given Macklin enough love because of Varet. But, I mean, Macklin has been really good the past two weeks.

Another guy. Scott Chandler's another guy I'm going to go to. $5,800. Why not? He's still got a lot of looks with Brady. I do like Austin Sparing Jenkins and maybe just kind of under the radar guy. And it's interesting because we'll see what some Fandall. If you check out the Fandle show, we talk about some ownership numbers on Friday. So check that out on our YouTube page. But I like Ty. I like this Thai guy from the Giants. A Thai fighter.

Yeah, I mean, why not? He's getting a lot of looks. You know, over the past three weeks, this guy's got 14 catches, 70 yards, 74, 56, close to 20 targets of the last three weeks. The only thing is he hasn't been able to find the end zone. So I'm going to go tie. All right, just a quick question to wrap it up. Would you go tie or would you go Wilson in Seattle? Wait, in Seattle. Oh, Luke? Canadian boy, is that?

Is that a Canadian question for me? Yeah, just a special for our friends of the North. Yes, I think I would go tie. I really do. I think there's this more safe. Luke, I don't know. I'm not a huge fan. He's got a lot of L's in his name, though. He's got a ton of L's in his name. Can you explain the double Ls to us? We do not understand it. Yes, yes, I know the double L Wilson. You Canadian.

I would go tie in that situation for sure. But I do like Russell Wilson. He's been really hot lately. The last three games, 11 touchdowns just shy of 1,000 yards, no interceptions, 100 on the ground, a Russian touchdown. So if you do want to go to Seattle's stack, it could be a contrarian play for sure if you plug in double L Wilson. So it's so big thank you to Chris Meaney from the Fantasy Sports Network. I'm getting pointed out. I was just to say we got Nando lined up for next week. Yeah. He better bring it.

And he's pumped. He told me, I was there with him last week. We were watching football. He said he's going to go on the fantasy footballers, and he couldn't be more happy. And then we've got to get Pat back on, too, so tell Pat that he's to be expecting a phone call. We're just going to invite your entire channel onto our show and have a big party.

Well, we love you on the channel. Pat, they said that expect a phone call in the future they want you on. Me? No, you don't want any further to me. All right, so big shout-out. Chris Meaney. Thank you so much, and we'll talk to you next week, man. No problem, guys. Everybody, good luck, fantasy football playoff time, and good luck with your picks this weekend. Thanks for having me. All right, thanks again to Chris Meaney for joining us on this show, talking some DFS. You know, we missed him. We missed him, and I'm glad he's back. There was a hole in my heart. I'll be honest with you.

Yeah, it's back. It's cool. And Pat. All right. Even though this show's a little longer, we're going to answer some questions. Listen, listeners of sent in questions for this week, we think they're pretty important, so we want to answer some of those. Mailbag. If you have a question, oh, it's still going. It's really impressive after all the cheering you did at the Cardone game. I felt like a balloon just going down right there. Yeah, yeah, that's how we feel about you. The mailbag.

You want to submit a question. You go to the website, the fancy footballer.com, click the submit a question button in the upper right-hand corner. You can also call us. Leave us a voicemail question. We're going to answer a couple of questions. The phone number there is 302-464-T-F-FB. Let's answer a couple of those. As soon as I can pull them up. You know, if you call that number, sometimes... Hey, guys. This is my Minnesota here. Love your show. You guys are great. Question is this weekend.

I have to choose a receiver here. I need to start. And I have Vincent, was it Jackson here of Tampa Bay or T.Y. Hilton of the Colts. I'm not sure which will be better. What's your advice? Thanks. I appreciate it. That's a close one. That is. I have Vincent Jackson at 24. I have Hilton at 20.

But you guys have them kind of in a different place. Jason has T.Y. Hilton at 29. Mike, you have him at 32, so that bumps him down. Consensus-wise, we have Jackson at 19, Hilton at 25. I like it. I would agree with that. Even if Vincent Jackson doesn't get the score, he's been catching such long passes that I think he's going to be safer. All right. Let's go ahead and hit another voicemail question right now. Salutation, fantasy footballers. This is Jared. I just wanted to call in and say thank you for the show.

The fantasy treats I have gleaned from listening to the fantasy footballers have boosted me to the playoffs in four leagues. Despite the fact that I started 0 and 4 in one league, and I'm now third, proving that everything that has happened can happen again in reverse. My question today is, I have Des Bryant in three of those leagues, and I want to know is he going to lose me my league if I play him? Or do I play players like Marty McBride, Eric Decker, Doug Baldwin, Doug Martin, Lamar Miller, John Brown?

Am I better off playing those type of players, or do I stick with Des and hope that he gives me one or two great games? Thank you. And one more note, thank you for the entertaining value of the podcast. The show has far-reaching effects. My family knows that on Sunday afternoons, when I break out in a David Johnson, they know that that moment of really pure insanity was inspired by the fantasy footballers. Well done. Thanks again for being one of the best podcasts out there.

biggest resource and reason that I am being successful in this crazy year of fantasy football. Have a great day. Well done. That's a pretty good David Johnson. I'll answer this question. That was. Not a bad David Johnson. Any follow-through with the uh-uhs. You got to do that. I'll answer this question since I just had Des Bryant as, you know, higher than you two. Number one this week, right? No, the answer to this question is.

Yes, he will lose you your championship weeks here. And all of the guys that you named in your list, I would start over Des Bryant. So I think my bet is just as much an indication on Jeremy Macklin this week as it is on Desk. Agreed. Everyone listed right there, I would start over Des Bryant without any question. All right, Jason and San Diego wants to know, week 14, should he start T. Yelden?

against Indianapolis or Todd Gurley against Detroit. You know what? I'm going to go with T.J. Eldon. I'm going to go, Todd Gurley. I believe that with the change of the offensive coordinator, they're going to give them the ball enough. And even though it's a Lions matchup, if you want to bet on one of these guys getting in the end zone, you have to go with Gurley. That's what I would do. End zone, yes, but better fantasy game I would go with Yilden. Mike has Gurley the lowest of us.

He's got him in the 20s, right? 27. All right. Ian in New Hampshire, and this week, do I start? Oh, look, T.Y. Hilton comes up again. Hilton at Jacksonville, Alan Herns against the Colts or C.J. Anderson against Oakland. I'm going to throw this out there. Some news broke during the show. Alan Herns is probable for the game on Sunday. That's my boy. I don't think C.J. Anderson is going to be listed as probable for Sunday. I don't think he will be. I would start T.Y. Hilton. And a probable tag for Alan Herns means that he is probably.

In my lineup. I concur, and that would be who I would go with. All right. Ethan in Detroit. Actually, this says Ethan is Detroit. Ethan is Detroit. So, Detroit, sweet show guys. Devonta Freeman is going up against the Panthers this week. Should I start Frank Gore against the Jags instead of him? No. I say no. Yeah, no. Both guys are going to finish.

probably near each other, but the baseline, you could have a bad game from Frank Gore that you're not going to get from Freeman. He just touches the ball too much and gets it through the air. Yeah, I agree with that. So that will do it for today's show. Good luck this weekend in your week 14 matchups, your playoff battles. Mike and I are facing off in a huge matchup, and the winner.

Of our battle plays the number one seed. The ingramless. The ingramless Jason Moore. And so it will be an exciting couple weeks filled with interdispersed depression. Yes, it was not the best start for my team last week with Larry Fitzgerald. Last night. Oh, did I say last week? Yeah. Last night. You're already moving on. With Larry. And I did have the Catman, the Arizona kicker. So he came through with a decent amount of points. Oh, my cat.
