WEBVTT
00:00:02.825 --> 00:00:07.312
Informed, outspoken, wild, fearless.
00:00:07.312 --> 00:00:11.586
This is the Fantasy Football Dudes podcast.
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:15.766
What is up my dudes?
00:00:15.766 --> 00:00:18.509
This is Trent with the Fantasy Football Dudes podcast.
00:00:18.509 --> 00:00:19.743
This is my solo waiver.
00:00:19.743 --> 00:00:23.525
Wire show Also got a little bit, just a scratch, a little tiny bit.
00:00:23.525 --> 00:00:25.370
You know a little Monday night football recap.
00:00:25.370 --> 00:00:26.391
You know my Cowboys won.
00:00:26.391 --> 00:00:30.451
I know I'm a little pumped up but I don't want to get all you Cowboys haters too upset.
00:00:30.451 --> 00:00:34.103
So I know you're here for your week seven waivers, so don't worry about that.
00:00:34.103 --> 00:00:35.566
Guys, I got week seven waivers.
00:00:35.646 --> 00:00:42.841
But I do want to just talk a little bit about you know me and Jordan gotten some big arguments about Dak Prescott not being able to throw the football, all that stuff.
00:00:42.841 --> 00:00:45.204
Am I excited about Cowboys?
00:00:45.204 --> 00:00:45.906
The rest of the season?
00:00:45.906 --> 00:00:47.204
I don't know.
00:00:47.204 --> 00:00:51.530
I'm trying to, you know, tell my heart to be still not get too excited.
00:00:51.530 --> 00:00:54.828
But Chargers, you know that's a decent win.
00:00:54.828 --> 00:00:56.466
I don't know what to think.
00:00:56.466 --> 00:00:59.667
The rest of the year I felt like both teams tried really hard to lose that game.
00:00:59.667 --> 00:01:01.612
Cowboys couldn't run the ball.
00:01:01.612 --> 00:01:03.159
They're going to have to run the ball.
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:12.968
The only bright spot of the whole game is their linebacker, who replaced Layton Van Der Esch and I'm looking up his name right now, but he came in.
00:01:12.968 --> 00:01:19.081
Marquis Bell played a great game had a nice keystop for Austin Eckler, but sloppy game, I will say.
00:01:19.081 --> 00:01:24.045
But I'm happy the Cowboys got the W and Dak Prescott finishes his quarterback one on the week.
00:01:24.045 --> 00:01:32.671
So I'm so sorry, jordan, you know, I know we had that big argument about how Jalen Hertz is treated a little different under the spotlight than other quarterbacks.
00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:39.084
But my main thing I want to talk about in Monday Night Football is the officiating was terrible.
00:01:39.084 --> 00:01:45.051
No one wants to go watch a football game that has 21 penalties.
00:01:45.051 --> 00:01:49.189
And hey, I understand, you know the pre snap penalties, I get it.
00:01:49.189 --> 00:01:56.272
You got to call those Very ticky, tacky holding calls and stuff like that.
00:01:56.272 --> 00:01:58.066
And the holding calls won't even bug me that much.
00:01:58.066 --> 00:01:59.727
It's the unnecessary roughness.
00:01:59.727 --> 00:02:08.200
You know Herbert slides one time and the guys already in the air to make the tackle NFL just call the game Like let's go back, can we?
00:02:08.200 --> 00:02:10.269
I would love to go back to early 2000s.
00:02:10.269 --> 00:02:11.544
I hate sounding like a boomer.
00:02:12.026 --> 00:02:19.028
But come on, guys, you're trying to appeal to these soccer moms to get there to get little Jimmy to go out for the football team.
00:02:19.028 --> 00:02:19.430
And guess what?
00:02:19.430 --> 00:02:23.188
These moms not going to let them go out for the football team unless it's flag.
00:02:23.188 --> 00:02:26.608
So just leave the flags for flag football?
00:02:26.608 --> 00:02:35.627
Okay, and I know that's an Olympic sport, which seems I like football as much as the next guy Okay, but the fact that flag football is in the Olympics seems silly to me.
00:02:35.627 --> 00:02:37.325
Or do we have a different team?
00:02:37.325 --> 00:02:38.985
Are these just going to be a bunch of scout team?
00:02:38.985 --> 00:02:42.805
You know NFL players that go play for other countries and all this stuff.
00:02:42.805 --> 00:02:43.989
It seems silly.
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:49.953
I feel like this is a slight way to get fans to be like hey, it's flag football, I don't mind watching this.
00:02:49.953 --> 00:02:54.665
All of a sudden, nfl is like hey, olympic members were good, we're going to do the flag football thing.
00:02:54.665 --> 00:02:56.322
This is great NFL.
00:02:56.322 --> 00:02:57.788
Just leave the game alone.
00:02:57.788 --> 00:03:00.168
If these guys are worried about injuries, they won't play.
00:03:00.168 --> 00:03:09.769
I know you're probably all going to come after this overweight guy who's wearing a cutoff on a podcast on YouTube, but that's just the way it is and I I feel strongly about that.
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:11.746
Leave the integrity of the game alone.
00:03:11.746 --> 00:03:17.445
No one wants to go watch these games where quarterbacks are sliding and there's I get protecting the sliding quarterback.
00:03:17.445 --> 00:03:20.628
All these unnecessary reference penalties are just getting so annoying.
00:03:20.628 --> 00:03:24.028
Ask the 49er fans that no one can stand about the unnecessary reference.
00:03:24.028 --> 00:03:28.723
They called that play with the game on the line and it was the wrong call.
00:03:28.723 --> 00:03:34.897
These calls, guys, 99% of the time, these unnecessary roughness calls, they seem lame to me.
00:03:34.897 --> 00:03:38.816
There was a roughing the passer call on Josh Allen on tonight football.
00:03:39.306 --> 00:03:41.437
The officiating is getting out of hand.
00:03:41.437 --> 00:03:42.664
It has to stop, guys.
00:03:42.664 --> 00:03:45.395
I don't think it will, because you got yahoo's like me.
00:03:45.395 --> 00:03:47.865
They're gonna watch no matter what but flag football.
00:03:47.865 --> 00:03:49.430
I will draw the line on that.
00:03:49.430 --> 00:03:50.152
You know, that's just.
00:03:50.152 --> 00:03:53.242
That's just soccer with a different shape, football in my opinion.
00:03:53.242 --> 00:03:56.092
But Enough with all that.
00:03:56.092 --> 00:03:58.460
I know you're here for week seven waivers.
00:03:58.460 --> 00:04:07.844
That is all the midnight football talk I got for you now, okay, and if you want all of my week seven waivers, go sign up for the email.
00:04:07.844 --> 00:04:17.235
It'll be right to your inbox, your gmail, your yahoo aol, for all you old school guys out there at Wwwthefantasyfootballdudescom.
00:04:17.235 --> 00:04:20.865
Have all my wide receiver stashes all in there, all my waiver wire.
00:04:20.865 --> 00:04:24.331
Uh, running back handcuffs, all that good stuff.
00:04:24.331 --> 00:04:28.519
But without further ado, let's get into it, guys.
00:04:30.045 --> 00:04:43.014
Like I said about roughing, holding can be frustrating in all aspects of life, whether you're on a hold with your internet provider, holding your spot in traffic after the midnight football game Los Angeles, or for many others across the nation's.
00:04:43.014 --> 00:04:45.665
The worst kind of holdings what happens after a big touchdown play?
00:04:45.665 --> 00:04:47.930
Not all holding calls are equal.
00:04:47.930 --> 00:04:51.197
Some are glaringly obvious, while others are more debatable.
00:04:51.197 --> 00:05:01.432
The most aggravating of them are these late game holding calls, seemingly appearing as if the referee held off, uncertain whether to make the call until the play's final conclusion.
00:05:02.052 --> 00:05:07.040
In fantasy football the type of holding that I like, that's hard to do the fantasy handcuff.
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:15.252
In the realm of fantasy football, this is often referred to, you know, insurance a nice little fancy insurance policy.
00:05:15.252 --> 00:05:20.512
These are the backup players poised to take over when your team starter falls injury.
00:05:20.512 --> 00:05:25.112
Those patiently holding on those backup running backs are about to be rewarded.
00:05:25.112 --> 00:05:28.478
Week six we had a lot of injuries, guys, a lot.
00:05:28.478 --> 00:05:36.439
If you've been listening this pod, if you've been sent for the email, you've seen all these guys you need to hold, so let's get into it.
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:49.908
I have some quarterbacks that I have for some streams Teams on by this week, guys, just so you know Carolina Panthers, cincinnati Bengals, dallas Cowboys, houston Texans, new York Jets and Tennessee Titans.
00:05:49.908 --> 00:05:56.365
So maybe you need a streamer for Joe Burrow, maybe you got Dak Prescott or you've been lucky with the whole CJ Stroud thing.
00:05:57.194 --> 00:06:07.588
So, guys, for those of you looking for the easiest way to identify their fantasy football handcuffs, the Sleeper Fantasy Football app is the absolute best place to do that, guys.
00:06:07.588 --> 00:06:10.584
So head over to Sleeper Interpromo code dudes100.
00:06:10.584 --> 00:06:12.942
They'll match you up to $100.
00:06:12.942 --> 00:06:22.045
They have neatly display of the entire depth chart of each player's profile, making it easier for you to spot those critical backup backups when you need to most.
00:06:22.045 --> 00:06:26.225
No more going online and looking up the depth chart on NFLcom trying to see who's who.
00:06:26.225 --> 00:06:29.584
Sleeper does a very good job organizing all that stuff for you in one place.
00:06:29.584 --> 00:06:31.682
They also have some fun DFS stuff.
00:06:31.682 --> 00:06:36.125
So, without further ado, let's get into our quarterbacks, guys.
00:06:36.125 --> 00:06:49.004
And yeah, below are my favorite week seven waiver wire options with a roster percentage under 68% on Sleeper Rankings are half point PPR with the help of PFF.
00:06:50.166 --> 00:06:51.677
So here we go, quarterbacks.
00:06:51.677 --> 00:06:54.577
I have Sam Howell again on the list 40% rostered.
00:06:54.577 --> 00:06:56.785
Travels to New York to take on the G-Men.
00:06:56.785 --> 00:06:57.648
The Giants.
00:06:57.648 --> 00:07:01.300
Finishes QB6 on the week is QB11 on the season.
00:07:01.300 --> 00:07:06.726
Howell has more fantasy points than Joe Burrow, matt Stafford and Trevor Lawrence this season.
00:07:06.726 --> 00:07:09.702
Sam Howell is a nice fill in for Joe Burrow.
00:07:09.702 --> 00:07:13.403
Next on the list Geno Smith, 59% rostered.
00:07:13.403 --> 00:07:18.425
Geno hasn't had a 20 point performance since week two when they traveled to Detroit.
00:07:18.425 --> 00:07:21.882
Arizona can be the perfect bounce back game for Geno.
00:07:21.882 --> 00:07:27.086
Three on the list I have Derek Carr, 28% rostered.
00:07:27.086 --> 00:07:29.882
He threw the ball 50 times last week.
00:07:29.882 --> 00:07:31.538
Guys, big 5-0,.
00:07:31.538 --> 00:07:35.406
Derek Carr is my next quarterback on the list here.
00:07:35.406 --> 00:07:37.639
So through the ball 50 times.
00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:41.307
Potential shootout this week with Jacksonville.
00:07:41.307 --> 00:07:42.939
Maybe that's kind of what Jordan would think.
00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:46.464
So quarterbacks I have Sam Howell, qb11 on the season.
00:07:46.464 --> 00:07:51.386
Geno has Arizona, which is a good bounce back candidate.
00:07:51.386 --> 00:07:54.958
Derek Carr potential shootout All right.
00:07:55.017 --> 00:08:03.502
Heading over to our running backs, I have the most coveted handcuff available right now and, if you're like me, you had them already on your roster.
00:08:03.502 --> 00:08:08.720
There's always the argument of should you keep your own handcuffs or should you take other guys' handcuffs.
00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:10.519
I have Christian McCaffrey.
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:14.437
Jordan Mason's been on my bench for a while now, 4% rostered.
00:08:14.437 --> 00:08:21.000
Came in for CMC vs the Browns, ran for 27 yards on five carries, has back-to-back games with touchdowns.
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:25.220
Could be in line for more work if McCaffrey misses time with his oblique injury.
00:08:25.220 --> 00:08:31.300
Jordan Mason was the handcuff that was hard to hold on to, but he is now our number one waiver wire out of the week.
00:08:31.394 --> 00:08:40.219
If you got him last week, you saved yourself a little bit of that mula fantasy cash, the main cryptocurrency.
00:08:40.219 --> 00:08:41.123
That won't fail you.
00:08:41.123 --> 00:08:42.739
That fab is a big deal.
00:08:42.739 --> 00:08:50.048
Actually, I had a listener send in that someone offered 20 fab to throw a game to bench Justin Herbert in this game.
00:08:50.048 --> 00:08:52.140
It's like what's wrong with you, people.
00:08:52.140 --> 00:08:55.302
Guys, hold it together, have some integrity.
00:08:55.302 --> 00:08:56.980
I know this is fancy football.
00:08:56.980 --> 00:08:57.481
It's a big deal.
00:08:57.481 --> 00:08:57.982
But come on.
00:08:58.534 --> 00:09:01.548
Number two on the list Craig Reynolds, 2% rostered.
00:09:01.548 --> 00:09:04.158
David McDonough should miss some time with a rib injury.
00:09:04.158 --> 00:09:10.057
It should be Gibbs season but the Lions are known for having that RBBC Running back by committee.
00:09:10.057 --> 00:09:16.663
Reynolds holds some value, especially since Gibbs was a scratch this past week with a hamstring injury.
00:09:16.663 --> 00:09:19.782
You know how these hamstring injuries are they linger.
00:09:19.782 --> 00:09:24.061
Next on the list Kareem Hunt, 46% rostered.
00:09:24.061 --> 00:09:26.225
Scored Cleveland's only touchdown on the day.
00:09:26.225 --> 00:09:30.083
He is not the starting running back, but he could be valuable down the stretch.
00:09:30.124 --> 00:09:33.442
Guys, stashes and handcuffs I got five of those, my five favorite.
00:09:33.442 --> 00:09:34.985
Those are all on the email.
00:09:34.985 --> 00:09:37.842
Go to wwwthefantasyfootballdudescom.
00:09:37.842 --> 00:09:44.908
Next on the list wide receivers All right, and wide receivers.
00:09:44.908 --> 00:09:50.167
I've been talking a lot about holding holding handcuffs, what you should not be holding on to guys.
00:09:50.167 --> 00:09:53.485
You know all that unwanted hair.

These arms have any hair on them.
00:10:12.019 --> 00:10:15.129
No smooth, silky smooth.
00:10:15.129 --> 00:10:16.633
That could be a little more tone.
00:10:16.633 --> 00:10:18.284
Maybe they need some arm tomer.
00:10:18.284 --> 00:10:20.105
That might help me for the YouTube channel.
00:10:20.105 --> 00:10:23.087
I don't know if the cut off is going to help YouTube views.
00:10:23.087 --> 00:10:24.802
Only time will tell.
00:10:24.802 --> 00:10:26.966
Guys, only time will tell.
00:10:26.966 --> 00:10:28.263
Enough about my arms.
00:10:28.263 --> 00:10:29.427
Enough about manscape.
00:10:29.427 --> 00:10:31.947

00:10:35.462 --> 00:10:38.187
Wide receivers Big value here.
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:43.027
Curtis Samuel, 51% rostered, three straight games with the touchdown.
00:10:43.027 --> 00:10:45.267
It is time to give up on Johan Dotson.
00:10:45.267 --> 00:10:49.267
He had one target on Sunday while running the second most routes on the team.
00:10:49.267 --> 00:10:51.427
Guy basically was doing a jogathon out there.
00:10:51.427 --> 00:10:53.086
Hopefully he had some key blocks.
00:10:53.086 --> 00:10:54.183
I really don't know.
00:10:54.183 --> 00:10:56.942
I don't pay attention to that too much, that's not my job.
00:10:56.942 --> 00:11:00.249
But I think we can give up on Johan Dotson.
00:11:00.249 --> 00:11:02.086
I was really excited about him this off season.
00:11:02.086 --> 00:11:03.625
Looks like Curtis Samuel.
00:11:03.625 --> 00:11:05.687
He's always been a you know Rivera guy.
00:11:05.687 --> 00:11:08.206
Looks like the clear number two right now.
00:11:08.206 --> 00:11:10.046
Guys, three straight games with touchdowns.
00:11:10.620 --> 00:11:19.188
Next on the list, josh Downs, 49% rostered, scored his first touchdown this week and has back to back double digit performances.
00:11:19.188 --> 00:11:24.866
You know in Gardner Mintchews, looking like he's gonna be the guy the rest of the year.
00:11:24.866 --> 00:11:36.746
It looks like Richardson is going to have a season, have season ending, season ending surgery, having some having a hard time talking right now.
00:11:36.746 --> 00:11:41.466
You know, it's almost like the time Phil was describing that barbecue a couple of weeks ago.
00:11:41.466 --> 00:11:43.385
So I'm looking at one more.
00:11:43.385 --> 00:11:46.565
One more little bonus waiver wire ad I can add in here, guys.
00:11:46.565 --> 00:11:50.169
Okay, jameson Williams, 63% rostered.
00:11:50.169 --> 00:11:54.748
Only ran nine routes and had three targets for two catches, 53 yards and a touchdown.
00:11:54.748 --> 00:11:57.904
Jameson Williams is only gonna get better as the season goes on.
00:11:57.904 --> 00:12:01.861
He is the deep ball threat in Detroit Next on the list.
00:12:02.965 --> 00:12:04.109
I have a little bonus here for you.
00:12:04.109 --> 00:12:06.846
This isn't even on the email, it just hit me after watching Monday Night Football.
00:12:06.846 --> 00:12:10.448
Joshua Palmer he had eight fancy points today.
00:12:10.448 --> 00:12:12.745
He's 65% rostered.
00:12:12.745 --> 00:12:15.528
Seems like a guy that Herbert was going to a lot.
00:12:15.528 --> 00:12:18.107
He did have a fourth down target in the end zone.
00:12:18.107 --> 00:12:20.527
It got blocked by Byan though.
00:12:20.527 --> 00:12:22.583
So, yeah, add him.
00:12:22.965 --> 00:12:28.328
And then, wrapping up, wide receiver waiver wire ads, I have Rashid Shahid, 28% rostered.
00:12:28.328 --> 00:12:31.349
Had two receptions for 85 yards on Sunday.
00:12:31.349 --> 00:12:33.988
Most of his damage came on a 51 yard catch.
00:12:33.988 --> 00:12:36.749
He also had two carries for 18 yards.
00:12:36.749 --> 00:12:40.664
The Saints seem like they're trying really hard to get him involved, guys.
00:12:40.664 --> 00:12:44.889
So go put in a claim in a deep lead, maybe.
00:12:44.889 --> 00:12:48.366
Rashid Shahid I'm just trying to give everybody something here, right?
00:12:48.366 --> 00:13:07.076
So, recapping that list, I'd cur to Samuel back to back three straight games with a touchdown, josh Downs back-to-back double digit fantasy performances and Rashid Shahid most of his damage came on a 51 yard catch, but they are targeting him a lot, guys.
00:13:07.557 --> 00:13:17.056
Also, if you want more fantasy football news, week six recap right here on YouTube or wherever you listen to podcast remember, don't be rude, share the dudes really helps us out.
00:13:17.056 --> 00:13:20.703
Me and Jordan had a classic argument about Dak Prescott verse Jalen hurts.
00:13:20.703 --> 00:13:23.260
Probably don't have enough cowboy talk in your life.
00:13:23.260 --> 00:13:25.070
Go check that out, though.
00:13:25.070 --> 00:13:28.015
Remember, don't be rude, share the dudes.
00:13:28.015 --> 00:13:28.456
We have another.
00:13:28.456 --> 00:13:31.142
We have our week seven matchup preview.
00:13:31.142 --> 00:13:35.336
Game starts and sits Coming out on Thursday, so you won't want to miss that.
00:13:35.336 --> 00:13:38.062
That will be a good one, as always, all right.
00:13:39.130 --> 00:13:40.956
Last but not least, we have the tight ends.
00:13:40.956 --> 00:13:46.739
Michael Mayer, 12% rostered, led the Raiders in receiving yards this week.
00:13:46.739 --> 00:13:49.980
Mayor could be the next rookie tight end breakout.
00:13:49.980 --> 00:13:54.315
Has looked great in the last two weeks with very little opportunity.
00:13:54.315 --> 00:14:04.456
Speaking of mayors, guys, today's episode is brought to you by trophy smack the dudes favorite place to get our fancy football trophies, last place ribbons, all kinds of good stuff.
00:14:04.456 --> 00:14:06.962
They actually have a trophy with a unicorn on it.
00:14:06.962 --> 00:14:08.813
Unicorn kind of looks like a horse.
00:14:08.813 --> 00:14:09.996
Okay, that's where we so.
00:14:09.996 --> 00:14:14.816
So, yeah, go to trophy, smack forward, slash dudes 15% off your whole order.
00:14:14.816 --> 00:14:16.182
Go check them out, guys.
00:14:16.182 --> 00:14:17.830
Rest on our tight end list.
00:14:17.830 --> 00:14:20.817
We have Dalton Schultz 57% rostered.
00:14:20.817 --> 00:14:22.500
Back-to-back games with touchdown grabs.
00:14:22.500 --> 00:14:23.842
He's on by this week.
00:14:23.842 --> 00:14:29.669
Worth the ad and is you know the ad in this terrible tight end landscape.
00:14:29.669 --> 00:14:31.676
He's tied in six on the season.
00:14:31.676 --> 00:14:35.052
I think he's worth holding, guys, it'll be worth it.
00:14:35.052 --> 00:14:41.299
Get the bye week over with if you got that roster room Next, taste some hill 12% rostered.
00:14:41.620 --> 00:14:43.645
Here's my just YOLO tight end play.
00:14:43.645 --> 00:14:50.380
If there's just there's no one out there Tied in landscape is bleak, okay, like my arm tone, my toned arms.
00:14:50.380 --> 00:14:57.131
So go over there, check out, taste them hill 12% rostered.
00:14:57.131 --> 00:15:02.384
Had career high in targets this week, catching seven of eight targets, completing a pass and having a carry.
00:15:02.384 --> 00:15:10.590
It's a very high upside play, very low, low, low foreplay, but it's the tied in position.
00:15:10.590 --> 00:15:11.874
What are they're tied into?
00:15:11.874 --> 00:15:16.490
You know that's gonna get passing attempts and rushing attempts and the targets seem to be happening.
00:15:16.490 --> 00:15:25.568
You know and I know the Saints Derek hard did throw the ball 50 times this past week, but you know there's more tin potential this week to have that big blow-up game.
00:15:25.568 --> 00:15:32.350
