Fantasy Football - The Fantasy MVP Episode! - Podcast for 8/28

They relied on him as a pass-catching running back. He is... Do you think that happens again in a new offense? I don't think he gets to 14%, but I'm just saying of the team saw it, that they can use him. They can check it down to Ken Walker. You don't have to go to your spare running backs as Seattle has done, you know, they did back in the past. The injuries in training camp are not great. I totally accept that. And Charbonnet, you know, The talk is he's looked better in preseason. Sharbonnet has looked great. But what really stood out to me was the blocking scheme. The Kubez system, the Kubex system coming into Seattle is very fascinating to me. I mentioned this yesterday that the team on their 53 man roster kept four tight ends and two fullbacks. This is a team that last year, they won 10 games.

They went 10 and 7, and they fired their offensive coordinator. And changed quarterbacks. Juddison two wide receivers. Right. This wasn't the system that they had success, but it wasn't the system that they wanted to run. And while Charbs is fine, like if he gets the opportunity, I think he will have some success. Kenneth Walker is a different level of talent. You know, the mistackle we've brought this up of, of he's essentially number one and just forcing this tackles. He's very good at the individual statistics on a per game basis. And so he's very good at those. Install an actual real professional blocking scheme and let Ken Walker do what he can do with his talent. He's being drafted in the fourth round. The level of work, like the workhorse rating that he's had over his career.

Generally speaking, that would be a second round pick. If you didn't have to worry about the training camp injury stuff, I think he would be going way higher, but it's there. He is practicing right now. The plan, ladies of the plan. They have a plan. I mean, that tells you. You have to have a plan. That tells you everything you need to know. Their head coach had to establish a unique, different plan to try to stop him from being hurt all the time. Jason, thoughts on Kim Walker. He is one of those players where I feel like where he's going in drafts, I will always take someone else because there's other guys I like in that range. And every time I go, man, I hope I'm not like I'm not confident that I'm not watching. Mike has a type though, doesn't he? Oh, Mike has a type. They're great when they're on the field. You just don't know if they'll be out there. It's a real boom bust. Christian McCaffrey, Ken Walker. When they're out there.

They're the best ever. And, you know, you play for first. And Mike really does. That's right. What is the, what is the statistical though? No, there are no, there's no one I have ever played fantasy football with more than Mike who has never finished between like three and third. Yeah. Like every, every year. I love biscuits, baby. You're either you're, you're, you're, you're in it and you're, you know, near that championship game. Or you are in danger of the punishment. Like that's, you are, you are playing with dynamite. All right. Let me let me. And you have a lot of titles. Let's play a game here. Um, percentage chance that Christian McCaffrey plays 16 or more games. Give me the percentage 10 or 16 or more. Yeah, I'm giving them a game. I'm, I'm, I'm giving them a game. I'm, I'm saying, like, sorry, not 16. Yeah, yeah, 16. I mean, 16 is like, that's what I'd say for almost all running backs. I'm good, like.

When a running back makes it two, 17 games or 16, they only miss one? Like, that's a great season. Okay, thank you. Just say like, just to be like, oh, he missed one game. I think you understand the point of my question. Whatever you define healthy as, if you define it as 16 games, I just want to know the percentage chance. I want to do some math here. Okay. Percentage chance of McCaffrey playing a full season by your definition. Is this for everybody or just Mike? It's just for Mike. Okay. I just want to see. Let's go at 15 games. I will put it at, I mean, that's like a 50-50 shot probably. Okay, 50%. Same question, Ken Walker. Ooh, I'll go under that. Let's go 40%. 40%. And then let's just for the sake of argument and historical analysis, T. Higgins. Oh, T. Higgins to appear in 15 games? Yeah.

3%. I guess I was just like I think what's coming through about the time you multiply those times each other. That's what I was like you're a gambling man but what kind of odds do you like because do you need all three of those guys to play 15 so win a title? Is that the is that the math equation or would you not stack these on a roster? No, I'm willing to stack them. I'm willing to go that math. I don't know if anybody out there is a mathematician. But 50%, 40%, 3%. Yeah, you just multiply those. That's all you got to do? I'm pretty sure. Why didn't you do it then? I thought that's what you were doing. This was your bit. Why am I being held accountable for your bit? Okay. I guess I wanted to figure out what the odds were that all three could be. Well, are we sticking with 3%? Because that's not a realistic number. Yeah. I don't know what actual. The actual percentage of them hitting. They have a high percentage chance of getting hurt, I would say. Yeah. But it's like if they.

If Walker plays 15, he's going to be, he will be a top 10 running back. If we gave T. Higgins a 40% chance, then there's an 8% chance. That all three say healthy? Okay, that's what I was looking for. Never tell me the odds. Never tell him the odds. Do you, yeah, yeah. So Ken Walker, you said if he's healthy, he's a top 10 running back? Is that what you said? If he plays 15 games, he'll be a top 10 running. So you're not threatened by Charbonnet as much, even though. No. See, I think the team loves Charbonnet. I think you can love him. Charbonnet. I think he's great for the system. I think he will get a lot of snaps. I am equally unafraid of Charbonnet from a standpoint of will Kenneth Walker be great for fantasy. He's probably part of the plan. Charbonnet is probably part of the Walker plane. Yeah. No, I agree. I think I think Charbonnet will get more work this season.

when Walker is healthy than he has in the past. Double-digit touchdowns, Mike. Do you see double-digit touchdowns for Ken Walker? Absolutely. Yeah, I can see all of that. I mean, again, I pass him in most drafts that I am in because where he's going, I still really like the other players on the board. And I hold my breath. And I guess at that point, I'm almost hoping that he's injured because if he's not, I have to play against him and he's going to be good.
