FA Frenzy Continues + Snap Goblin Returns, Watson Watch! - Fantasy Football Podcast for 3/17

Because I don't want to be surprised by hidden. Gotcha. I think it's hidden. Okay. Well, anyways, the news, the Buffalo Bills signed J.D. McKissick to a two-year, seven million years. That was where you're supposed to do it. That also fits because J.D. McKissick is not a Buffalo bill. Washington chose to match. And because you were in that negotiation period where no one could actually sign.

He is back with the Washington Manders. J.D. McKissick will reprise his role of the snap and target goblin. There it is. There we go. Smooch is back to Washington. So Antonio Gibson, RIP, three down back, Antonio Gibson. But the honest truth is here. Gibson is still close to.

what he was last year. A lot of his targets and things did come when McKissick was injured. Carson Wentz not completely a checkdown type of a quarterback. So there should be some real concern for Antonio Gibson getting targets, but he will still be the lead runner, and he'll get a whole bunch of attempts. He'll get the goal line work. But that sliver of hope that you saw, like, holy crap.

It really could happen this year. Gibson could be a true three-down guy end up in the top five. That's probably not happening now. Kyle wanted to know if we're comfortable with Gibson as an RB1 for your team in fantasy. I am not. I'm not comfortable with Antonio Gibson as my RV-1. Beyond the McKissick news, it's also he's been historically injured. And you wonder when the team is going to.

make commitments to take that load away so he stays healthy. I would not feel comfortable with him as my one right now. I'm fine with him as my RB1 in the situation of adding the context that he's not my first draft pick. I'm not taking Gibson in the first round. As much as I love my champion, who is, he is a benevolent champion. I don't know if you saw how excited he was on Twitter that McKissick was coming back to the Manders, but it seems that they've...

that they bro down over there. But Gibson in the first should not happen. If you're talking, I get a high, super high level wide receiver one in the first round. And then in the back of the second, Antonio Gibson comes to me. I'm okay with that as of the right now. Gibson was really, really good at the end of the year. Yes. 1,200 yard pace, 8.5 touchdowns, 53 reception pace. Yeah, that probably is not.

Yeah, all is not lost. The 42 receptions, I don't know that'll hit that mark again, but it should be in the low 30s. Yeah, I'm part of that. McKissick was gone for five weeks. Yeah, that potential. That sweet, sweet potential. All right. And I wanted to like you, J.D. Right. I wanted to be your friend. I was super pumped for you to go to Buffalo. Was he going to Buffalo? And then he realized, wait, I have a chance to play with Carson Wins. Yeah. I got to go back.

Yes. He's like, who? Coral mustard with the candlestick. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills, who have to be a top three odds on favorite to win the Super Bowl? No, I'm going back to Washington. Can I be honest with you? I didn't think that the Washington salamanders were going to lean this heavy into the mustard color. I feel like they've gone very mustard heavy. I think that's a wince choice.

He's like, give me whatever you got that kind of pulls in the mustard. If you're talking about the coat, I thought the word was he said he already had that thing. I'm sure he did. I'm not joking. Oh, really? Yes. Oh, well, he probably stands in front of the mirror pretending he's going into the Hall of Fame with that. With the jacket that he had for the press conference, I believe I saw the report that he said he already had that. Yeah, but that bomber jackets got a lot of mustard in it, the one that they had him wear before, unless that's from his high school.

It wouldn't be as mustardy if you didn't have the compliment of the ketchup, though. Yeah, you wouldn't feel like you were a hot dog sandwich situation. Yes, hot dog in it. What are we doing, Manders? Two years in, they take two years to get a name, and we basically go hot dog. The amount of nicknames that we could come up with for this team. It's going to be a good year. And they deserve it. It's fun. We'll come up with some new stuff. Hey, guess what? Who doesn't love a hot dog? No, hot dogs are great.

I mean, vegetarians are probably not in on the hot dog. Yeah, they're out. Yeah. Well, they probably make some veggie dogs. Do they have impossible? Do they have impossible dogs? I don't think so. I don't know. Because it's impossible to replicate the deliciousness. It's not worth the gap between the impossible dog and the real hot dog is too big. It's overwhelmed. All right. Any more hot dog commentary? Kyle, you got anything for us? They're fine. Okay. This guy. This guy. I'm muting him.

Get out of here. Number two. Yes, thank you. All right, the Titans have released veteran wide receiver Julio Jones. Woof. They traded a second and fourth round pick to Atlanta for 31 receptions last year. I think they did get a sixth back, though, or something. Cool. Cool. I'm just trying to ease the blow for our friends in Tennessee. I tweeted yesterday the summarized careers of Julio Jones and A.J. Green, who.

Look, you talk about a mirror. Great careers. Yeah, outstanding. I mean, 13,000 yards plus for Julio, 10,000 plus for AJ Green. I think AJ Green has about 170 fewer receptions, but eight more touchdowns. But the way that they've mirrored each other has been incredible because they played with their original franchise up until last year, one year with a new team. Not great. Now what? I think Julio Jones will find himself another team.

It was a real, like, as it is with Julio, he gets banged up frequently, but he ended up missing a lot of time. And Coach Vrable of the Titans, I mean, he had no time for Julio Jones and his injuries and doing the wrong things on the field because he's not getting into practice. So the waving of Julio Jones makes complete sense. I do think he will find a job. What about Atlanta?

They need a wide receiver. What's amazing is like the best home right now for like Alan Robinson's probably the Bears and the best home for Julio is probably the Falcons. But that's big news. I mean, he could end up in Arizona. I'm not going to rule that out. I wouldn't rule that out either. Chris Godwin, not going to play on the franchise tag. Three year 60 million dollar contract. Nice. Get paid, Godwin.

They also signed Russell Gage to a fairly big deal, $20 million guaranteed, to come in. And look, they have an Antonio Brown departure, right? I mean, so you needed another body. And it's not just, I mean, Chris Godwin's coming off of an ACL tear. So will he be ready week one? That remains to be seen. But I think Russell Gage is a good player. He's not a number one. He's a very solid player. He's not a number one wide receiver. And that's not like,

That's not an insult. Yes. Very few players in the NFL are actually number one wide receivers. Look at what he did down the stretch. Like Gage made some really impressive plays. He had some solid production. And I think that this is a very good signing by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If you are Tyler Johnson, Truther. Not so good. That hurts. Yeah. That hurts. That ships sailing. If you were into Scotty Miller as maybe that.

That hurts. But the three-pack of Gage, Godwin, and Mike Evans with Brady. And they brought back Perryman, and they brought back Brate. Yeah, the camera Brate resigning is huge at this point if Gronk doesn't actually come back. Because O.J. Howard is gone. Yes, he is. So very interesting. Gage only 26 years old. You saw the amount of money that Christian Kirk just got being 25 years old. That's that prime wide receiver age, 25, 26.

All right, we have, we've got a lot more news to get into. Is anything new broken here, Brooksie? Not yet. Okay. Well, why don't we take a quick break and then get back into the news?

They don't have a lot of pass catchers that have pedigree right now. If we're talking about like dynasty, I would be far more interested in Harrison Bryant, who when he, Harrison Bryant's career, I don't think he had the draft capital.
