Fantasy Draft Redo + Ride or Die, TNF Preview - Fantasy Football Podcast for 10/12

Unless it's an emergency. We're going to break glass at the end of a loss. I was at home watching the Cardinals game because it was the afternoon only three games left. So I was able to leave the studio. I was watching at home. And there was a play where dropbacked pass and immediately ran. It was a designed, you know, like the quarterback. I bet it worked. The quarterback draw. The second he started moving. I just screamed, yes! I know. Like, what are you? Like, I knew the play was going to work. You want to know why I knew the play was going to work? Because it would work every single time. Yeah. And he's faster than everybody else. Yeah. And they do. You want to know how else I know it works? Because I've seen it work every single time with Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Yeah, it's like a superpower. Yeah. And you use it like once or twice a game or when the clock is running out and you shouldn't use it. You'll call it then.

Yeah. No, this is like you've got a, you've got a bazooka to shoot it, something out of the air, and you're like, I'm going to throw rocks. You've got the superpower built in. I'm going to load the bazooka with jelly. Yeah, this is just not a, I'm kind of into that idea. Oh, that'd be good, a jelly bazooka? Yeah, all right. I feel like that's like a kid snack waiting to happen. Open your mouth. So, Kyle, I just looked it up. Kyla Murray is. Six points better per game with Hopkins. Well, he's going to be much better. And Rondale Moore just got back. Trey McBride, Zachertz, it's going to be, and the schedule's juicy. So are you saying you'd take Kyler over Herbert? I think I would. Is that because you feel like Kenan's never coming back? No, I'm very concerned about when he will come back as a hamstring injury. Those are terrible to come back from a re-agravated hamstring.

You've seen that derail a player's entire season. And the question was, I was going to ask, is like, have we seen Kyler Murray truly be bad when DeAndre Hopkins is on the field? No. He's been, that's when he was been truly alive. I have made trades with Justin Herbert to try to get Kyler on the cheap plus. I've tried to make that exchange. I think before you push that button. And we get out of here. I think that the lesson to be learned from so far from draft season to now being over a month in is the top quarterbacks should be drafted higher. We are so afraid of, I'm just saying they have been, you look at this draft. This is an outlier year, though. Last year, the difference between a top three quarterback and a top 12 quarterback was like a point. I understand what you're saying, but the problem is getting it right.

in years past. It's been not picking the right one. It's drafting Mahomes when it should have been Allen. It's drafting Rogers when it should have been Lamar. That's been the problem. At the very least, then Josh Allen, who was the number one quarterback two years ago and the number one quarterback last year and is the number one quarterback this year should not be falling into the third round. I agree with you. And that's smart. We should call that the Kelsey policy. I mean, really, he's the one who set that precedent at tied in where you're like, eh, you do it every year. You should probably be drafted there. And Josh Allen is, wins are going to stop. Yeah.

I don't know, 2026. Yeah? Just throwing out of a day down. All right. Thursday night breakdown. We are, we have that button, and they are playing on Thursday, so I'm obligated to click it. The drafting sportsbook line for the Washington commanders taking on the Chicago Bears is Washington minus one in Chicago. The overrunners 38 points. Let's keep it short and sweet, gentlemen. The disrespect. I know. The one and four team going. To the home of the three and two team being favored is just delightful. David Montgomery put them in your lineup. Yep. And then close the book. Uh, yeah. On the Chicago Bears. Oh, okay. I mean, guys, Colquette did catch some passes last week. Four for 45. Okay. Um, he's, Mike, would you like to play against Colquette or Tassum Hill? Uh, Cole commit. Yeah. I thought you were going to say, would I rather play against Cole Commet or.

or Kyle Pitts, and I don't have an answer. It's disrespectful. Real quick correction, guys. This makes more sense. I think J. Gris got in the show doc. The Bears are two and three, not three and two. Oh, okay. That makes far more sense. Yeah. Yeah. Jake is always trying to inflate his own wind totals. Well said. On the other side, look, Antonio Gibson is DED. JD McKissick is good for five to seven fantasy points every single week of his life. And then the real question mark to me is I am observing from the sideline here, the Brian Robinson experience because the bear's defense against running backs, it's not been great. I think Robinson will have more opportunity. I think there's going to be a natural increase in that opportunity. And this is the kind of game that stays close enough, right? They're not getting blown out of the water by Justin Fields and company. So I am watching from the sideline.

asking myself the question, do I have a flex worthy Brian Robinson at some point this year? TBD. Yeah, that's the question that should be asked and watched from the sideline. Like you said, I think Curtis Samuel is a player that can absolutely be played. He's leading this team in targets. I'd play him over Terry McLaren. I would as well. 11 targets, nine targets, 10 targets, seven targets, eight targets. He is involved. He's also had, what, eight rushing attempts on the season in a Good matchup here without Johan Dodson. Curtis Samuel is a very safe play. Let me ask a few quick questions. So Terry McLaurin against Chicago or Adam Thielen against the Dolphins. Adam Thielen, the matchup is great against the Dolphins. Terry McLaurin or Jacoby Myers against the Cleveland Browns. Jacobi Myers. Yep. I'm not jamming Terry McLaren into my lineup anymore. Okay. Let me try and go a little bit. Aren't targets an earned stat? That's what we say because it's his target share.

His lack of involvement last week. I mean, he's a good player. It's just 12, 10, 13, 2, 10. Let's see. And then, okay, then a wild one. Terry McLaurin or on the other side of the field, Darnell Mooney. Terry McClure. Terry McClure. Would you trade Terry McLaren to get Curtis, straight up? Oh, man, that's tough. I don't think so because I don't think so, because nor would I trade him necessarily straight up to get Jacoby Myers, who I think is. the same type, the same arc type of Curtis Samuel. Very consistent. You're going to get, you know, nine, ten points out of that player more often than you get out of Terry McLorn. But I don't think they're going to win you weeks. I still am hoping that Tara McLaurin, which we've seen from him before, can be a more dominant, you know, big output type of player. He has hit 75 yards in three of five games. Yeah, it's just very difficult to know. He's not scoring, though. Like when you roll the, the.

six-sided dice and or die and you have to land on one to get your Carson Wins game and the other ones all stink I mean I listen to the Ron Rivera conversation that is not an endorsement of Carson Wins no that is a very transparent very open it's his fault type of conversation a reminder check your waiver wire for who was dropped today Got to drop it like it's hot.
