Fantasy Football Podcast 2016 - Week 2 Matchups, Daily Dose, #FootClan Friday

Going down the list a little bit, I really do like the Bears this week against the Eagles. I like Alshan Jeffrey. He's not even a top 10 wide out in terms of pricing. He's only $7,800. Going up against what's going to be Eagles secondary is a little bit banged up. I don't think McClellan's playing, so they're going to have a seventh round rookie corner in there. I think Jalen Mills. So Jeffrey should get a lot of targets, a lot of play this week. I like him. Going down, Larry Fitzgerald is not priced properly, $7,400.

I know I said I didn't love Russell Wilson, but Baldwin's not priced properly either. $7,000 for him. If you thought Lasser's a fluke, it's not. This guy's just going to be a target machine. I keep going down the list. Jordan Matthews, who's encouraging to see him get a lot of targets. I think that could be a high score in game. Chicago, Philadelphia, 14 targets with Wentz, seven catches. He's less than $7,000. As is Marvin Jones yet again, he's going to be a target machine all year, $6,500. And I mentioned Flacco. I like Wallace. I mean, why wouldn't you just...

Roll the dice on Wallace. We saw exactly last week what he's going to do in this offense. Placo's going to take shots downfield with Wallace. So he's only $6,100. So I definitely would have Wallace in a couple of items. Love it. All right. Let's talk about some running backs. What's your situation? Your take on the field this week? Yeah, there's a couple of sticky situations. A couple running back by committees you want to stay clear of. You know, Freeman is still highly priced. I'm not digging that at all.

CJ Anderson had a really good game, and the Colts can't stop anybody. So I'm in on CJ at $7,800. He's a top three back for me, just overall in my ranks personally. DeAngelo Williams, again, is just going to continue to get a lot of play. And he's just amazing in that offense. It's just like Bell. It's like they don't even really miss them. And Bell's just fantastic. So those two backs, and then, again, if you want to save up, back to the Chicago Philly game, it's not a bad idea to stack. I mean, if you look at last week, some of the winning lineups, I mean, Cooks.

and Sneed were in lineups. Same with Latavius Samuri and Cooper. So I'm not opposed to Langford and Jeffrey. I think that's a pretty good combo. Last year, the Eagles gave up the most Russian yards on the ground. Corwell looked okay. He had a scoring touch against the Eagles. So Jeremy Langford's getting no love. And if there's no ivory, I'd roll a TJ Yeld. And you saw what Spencer Ware was able to do against that Chargers D. They're just going to be bad again. I think stop on the run.

All right. Do we have any Chris Meaney Magic for the tight end position? When I look them over right now, it makes me want to barf everywhere because there's just no one's standing out but the top guys. But do you have, you got any hidden gems for us this week? I don't know. No Gary Barnage is this week. I don't think, boys. Although I do think him, you know, McCallum being back in the offense is going to help Gary Barnage. Certainly they just seem to be on a really good connection.

But yeah, I'm with you, man. I just look at this tight end, all these lists and it's like, oh, like, I don't, I'm not, I'm not into any of them. Like, I guess Jason Witten, I go down the list here, 5-9, it's not like he's too expensive. He saw what Jack Prescott was doing. He was just 45 passes of the majority of them, right to Beasley, and right to Witt, and both of those guys, I think, are going to continue to get a lot of targets. So I'm in on Witton at $5,900. And then again, it's just like, you can't really trust these guys. You just can't. I mean.

Zach Miller, is he going to wake up in a decent matchup? He didn't really do much. And Jared Cook, a lot of people were in on him. There's a lot of inconsistency. I think if anybody has a flyer that not a lot of people will play, going back to that Baltimore game, Dennis Pitta, $4,800, and Kyle, and Kyle Rudolph got a lot of targets as well. But then it's just another shaky situation with Bradford being in QB and not Sean Hill. So there's a lot of uncertainty at the tight-end position, but I think Whitten is probably your safest bet. And what about a sleeper or two at the defense? Do you got anything loaded up there?

I think I'm going to pay up for this week, guys. Okay. I'm not going to lie. Panthers, Panthers against San Fran. I like that matchup a lot. You know, Denver's always a good D, but you don't want to do it. You don't want to roll the dice. Baltimore, $4,500 seems like an okay play. But I think it's safe to throw, spend up on D. Carolina, Seattle, just get them in your lineups. Love it. So that's Chris Meaney from the Fantasy Sports Network, giving you some awesome DFS fan dual lineup.
