Hold Em’ or Fold Em’ - LIVE in New York City

Everyone wins. And when you win, know that you're actually the best. The best are the people that win in those leagues. Honestly, but like real advice would be back before the show really got going, I would conglomerate the rankings of people that I trust, you know, move some players around. And I would literally delete players. These are players that I am willing to be wrong about. It's perfectly fine. If they hit and I didn't draft them, fine.

But if they bust and I did draft them, fine. These are the players that I personally like. So that's how I would attack it, especially people are using the same rankings. Thank you, sir. Thank you for your question. Next question. Hey, ballers. What's it? Connor from the Long Island, New York. Oh, what's going on? It's never been referred to as the. It has tonight. Well, my question is, in a standard league, if you had the choice.

Between two running backs of similar ranking, like Marlon Mack and Carryon Johnson, would you prefer the more dynamic back on the weaker offense or the weaker pass catcher on the better offense? In a standard league. That's a great question. Great question. What do you think? For me. Marlon McLever. He's your guy, right? Well, he's my guy until further notice. Yeah.

I love both of these players, and in a standard league, I would still side with Caryon Johnson because... And the way that I... Oh, they want the drop. I'm so sorry. Yeah, the... Who wants to talk about Devin Funches? No. All right. That's my bad guy. We got it out of the same. Yeah. No more. But... Who wants to talk about...

All right, all right. Keep cool, keep cool, my baby. All right. Okay, we've done the, we've played the hits. Answering a question. Be serious. Philosophically speaking, you know, a lot of times people say they're willing to take the Derek Henry's much higher obvious with Marlon Max, the people that aren't going to be involved in the passing game as much. But the problem is sometimes those guys are not game script proof.

So even though they're not penalized by not being in their good games, they, you know, they're not penalized for not catching the ball. If they're down big in that game, sometimes they, you know, especially Marlon Mack, he's not as involved in the games that they're losing. They rely on Naim Hines. So Carryon Johnson, I think he is game script proof. He might not have the giant massive games because he's on the worst offense. I think it's...

Good advice. Yes. I did. Because it can be deceptive. If you're in a standard, you can be so focused on just taking these standard-oriented players, and then you don't know where to draft James White, or you don't know where to draft these past dynamic players later in the draft. They can be steals. A shout out to a great friend of the show, Scott Barrett, writes for PFF. He wrote up a great piece about Marlon Mack and how his production came in games were the Colts.

Not only one, but they crushed their opponent. And then when things were a lot tighter or a little bit more neutral, his production was not so great. So I'm with Jason. He wasn't on the field then. Yeah, I'll take carry on in those two guys. Great. All right. Thanks for the question. Thank you guys. Next question. What's going on, guys? My name is Tom. What's up, Tom? Not much. It was rhetorical, Tom. Not bad.

Hey, also, before you jump into it, we want to give a shout out to pristine auction because Tom won this helmet. Tom won this helmet. It's a beautiful, full-sized autographed Sequin Berkeley jersey from the New York Giants. By the way, hold on, you might not get to ask a question tonight. Because this is the second time I've had to give a Seahawks fan a helmet. Look, the 12th man is very strong. It hurts so bad.

I think Tom is either very happy or about to be a very wealthy man. Yeah. At the end of the night. What's your question? Good sir. So my question is, obviously, every year there's new OCs. So is there any offensive coordinator whose scheme makes a fantasy player in particular just a little higher in your average draft position? Yeah. For me, it's, it's gross. I get it.

But it's Chad O'Shea down in the Miami Dolphins, bringing down the Patriots scheme. Well, I want to see if another team can actually do it. And there are in Albert Wilson, I think, is a player who, I think if he is healthy, and that's still a big if, I totally acknowledge that fact that it's going to come down to the wire for Albert Wilson. But I think that he can.

perfectly fit in with what he wants to do with a slot-wide receiver like Wes Welker or Julian Edelman. So Chattoshae, I think he can make the dolphins better than we expect. What about Darrell Bevel in Detroit? Speaking to Carri-on Johnson and the opportunity there. Because he's run first, except for the Marchion play. Whoa. Yeah, no, he's going to run the ball as much as he can. That's a great one. Obviously, in Arizona.

We've got Cliff Kingsbury bringing a system that's perfect for Kyler Murray. I would also throw out Joe Mixen has Zach Taylor coming in as an offensive-minded head coach so the Bengals could get him more involved. We all want things to be fixed for our players. It doesn't always work out that way, but...

At least with the offensive-minded head coaches, it lends towards the fantasy outcomes that we want to see, which is more play calls overall. I mean, I know Arizona they're aiming for 90 plays a game. If you're on the field more often, there's just more probability that you're going to do something for fantasy owners. We want the offense on the field. You hear that, Matt, Patricia? We want the offense on the field. Thank you for the question. Appreciate it. Absolutely. And congrats on the Saquan helmet. Yes.
