And then he was fumbling away. So they said, we're going to go to an undrafted rookie. Yeah, that's all true. So it wouldn't shock me if they said, okay, we're going to bury P. Ryan for this year. Jay Gruden came out and said that Chris Thompson will be begging for more touches and will not get them. That was the exact word. It's smart of it. No, it's smart because his injury history going back to college, Chris Thompson, they're using him.

55:22 ↗

perfectly, obviously. I mean, they're getting the value out of him. They're keeping him healthy. I think that's wise. Gruden is a crumudgeon, man. Yeah, that's true. Gruden, if you're not careful, you might turn it to Jeff Fisher. Just throwing that out there. Be careful, man. You may transform. Yeah. If you start seeing a few hairs on the upper lip of Jay Gruden, start to creep over.

55:51 ↗

That is... You need to run. You sell all Washington players. To be, to his credit, he's doing a good job with that team. And they've been competitive. The defense looks very impressive. And despite the fact offensive turnovers happen, they've managed to win some games and to find offensive strategies to let cousins kind of come along with these wide receivers. So I give them a lot of credit for that. As Mike said, all of our rankings, the week four rankings, they will, the initial.

56:20 ↗

rankings will be up on the website this evening on Wednesday here for week four. So check out that on the fantasy footballers.com. Check out that on. Very nice. And the tip of the day. Oh, it's a good tip. Drop it long as hot people. Waivers ran. Make sure you see and investigate who was dropped in your leagues. Yeah. You may be shocked to find someone that you want to add immediately. Tomorrow may become your favorite waiver day. Yeah.

56:47 ↗

because of somebody that's been dropped for the new hotness. Maybe somebody went after Mercedes Lewis. And all of a sudden you can snag a Ben Watson after the bad week. And just, you know, if you need a tight end, maybe that works out for you. And just, weird things happen. I had someone on Twitter, reached out and said, Jordan Reed got dropped in my league. Do I pick him up? Of course. Don't even ask me that question. I'm the anti- Jordan Reed guy. But yeah, if I can get him for free on waivers, his ceiling is where.

57:14 ↗

very few other tight-end ceiling. Absolutely. And we do want to remind you that if you want the premium projections for each week, as well as the flex rankings, and now the consistency rankings that you love in the ultimate draft kit are now part for the 2017. It is awesome. They're now part of join the foot.com. Yes. Join up. Sports show.

57:36 ↗

Help us out get these things over at join the foot.com. But I was asked the question of who's a good buy low candidate. I think they wanted my top five. And I hopped right into the consistency charts because it was so easy to see like who's a guy who just had a bad week. You know, he had a bad week this week, but he was good before that. And you could just scroll down, see the colors. It was awesome. I loved it. All right. That is it for today's episode. Thanks for tuning in.

58:00 ↗
