Week 2 Waiver Adds and Stashes + Can the Jets compete without Rodgers?

Week 2 Waiver Adds and Stashes + Can the Jets compete without Rodgers?

Trents early reaction to achilles injury of Aaron Rodgers and analyzing the pressure on Zach Wilson, can the Jets compete?  We'll also share some hard-earned wisdom on when to drop a player and the parallels it holds to life's big decisions - marriage, home buying and, yes, closet spaces.

Could Tua Tagovailoa or Jordan Love be the game-changers for your team? Trent takes a deep dive into these questions and more as we reveal our favorite waiver pickups and streaming options for week two. We also spotlight promising running backs like Tyler Algier and Kenneth Gainwell.

00:00 - Fantasy Football Waivers and Closet Space

06:57 - Targets for Quarterback and Running Back

17:40 - Fantasy Football

WEBVTT

00:00:00.822 --> 00:00:03.270
This is the Fantasy Football.

00:00:03.310 --> 00:00:04.554
Dudes podcast.

00:00:04.855 --> 00:00:05.980
What is up, my dudes?

00:00:05.980 --> 00:00:08.548
This is Trent with the Fantasy Football Dudes podcast.

00:00:08.548 --> 00:00:11.288
I am going a little yolo solo, as they say.

00:00:11.288 --> 00:00:13.784
I did, thought I'd you know week one.

00:00:13.784 --> 00:00:17.763
Thought I'd maybe try something a little different here, maybe a little waiver podcast.

00:00:17.763 --> 00:00:19.829
I thought would be fun, just by myself.

00:00:19.829 --> 00:00:21.344
Something quick, something fast.

00:00:21.344 --> 00:00:26.827
You know I do this in the email, I do it on Twitter, but sometimes you guys just like me whispering into your ears.

00:00:26.827 --> 00:00:30.870
So here I am with the pod in a little surprise episode.

00:00:30.870 --> 00:00:31.923
Hope you all appreciate it.

00:00:31.923 --> 00:00:33.564
Remember, don't be rude.

00:00:33.564 --> 00:00:35.646
Share the dudes really helps us out, guys.

00:00:35.646 --> 00:00:37.646
So if you like this episode, share it with a friend.

00:00:37.646 --> 00:00:44.027
I know you're maybe saying like, hey, but if I share this episode I won't be the only guy getting last place in my league or whatever.

00:00:44.027 --> 00:00:45.945
Or maybe I'm the only guy winning in your league.

00:00:45.945 --> 00:00:55.902
The thing is, if you like this podcast, you need to share it with a friend because if we grow, that means we will continue making more stuff like the surprise episode right here.

00:00:56.659 --> 00:00:58.125
So Monday night football just ended.

00:00:58.125 --> 00:01:02.210
Aaron Rodgers looks like it's a Achilles injury, not a doctor.

00:01:02.210 --> 00:01:05.588
That's just what I'm reading on the old bluebird, or X, whatever you want to call it.

00:01:05.588 --> 00:01:10.265
So Aaron Rodgers out for season, zach Wilson time.

00:01:10.265 --> 00:01:12.423
Maybe they bring someone else in, I'm not sure.

00:01:12.423 --> 00:01:21.385
In the long run I I'm kind of curious to see what Zach Wilson's like now that he's kind of spent not a training camp with Aaron Rodgers.

00:01:21.385 --> 00:01:23.424
I will see.

00:01:23.659 --> 00:01:28.411
I don't expect that much improvement, but with this defense the jets can win games.

00:01:28.411 --> 00:01:30.103
The jets won tonight.

00:01:30.103 --> 00:01:31.066
They beat the bills.

00:01:31.066 --> 00:01:32.665
This was unbelievable punt return.

00:01:32.665 --> 00:01:35.027
It was ugly, but it was a win.

00:01:35.027 --> 00:01:39.260
And if Breece Hall can stay healthy, this team makes the playoffs.

00:01:39.260 --> 00:01:40.846
This is a very good football team.

00:01:40.846 --> 00:01:44.561
They just need Zach Wilson not to screw things up Garrett Wilson.

00:01:44.561 --> 00:01:47.590
He climbed the ladder without hands, practically like what a catch.

00:01:47.590 --> 00:01:50.427
So the jets upset the bills.

00:01:50.427 --> 00:01:52.628
Josh Allen did not have a very good game.

00:01:52.628 --> 00:01:53.602
He threw three picks.

00:01:53.602 --> 00:01:57.590
But jets defense very good, good enough to get them to the playoffs.

00:01:57.590 --> 00:02:02.031
They just need a little bit of quarterback play out of Zach Wilson.

00:02:02.031 --> 00:02:07.784
I said all off season I thought the jets would have made playoffs last year if Breece Hall doesn't get injured.

00:02:07.784 --> 00:02:11.908
Now they have the dolphins in that division also and that's a complete track team.

00:02:11.908 --> 00:02:15.564
Okay, so, uh, yeah, this whole pod.

00:02:15.604 --> 00:02:32.629
You know I was kind of thinking this past week, you know, I just uh, they say, get married, buy a house, start a family, you know, and then after a few years of marriage, you know, you finally find that house you want to buy and, as a young husband, this been a bigger closet.

00:02:32.629 --> 00:02:33.883
I was real excited about it.

00:02:33.883 --> 00:02:40.289
And the problem is is this bigger closet actually was smaller than the last closet I had?

00:02:40.289 --> 00:02:41.812
I thought it'd be a 50-50 split.

00:02:41.812 --> 00:02:42.272
It wasn't.

00:02:42.272 --> 00:02:53.981
I was pretty naive and I just, I don't know, after we moved I realized I had even less closet space than I did in my last closet and I didn't, couldn't figure out.

00:02:53.981 --> 00:02:58.507
Like, where should I put my Trelloans jersey, all my Cowboys stuff, my Ryan Matthews Fresno State Jersey?

00:02:58.507 --> 00:03:01.448
You know I have a decent amount of jerseys and it's.

00:03:01.688 --> 00:03:02.170
It's weird.

00:03:02.170 --> 00:03:03.831
You know you get married and you think you're going to get this.

00:03:03.831 --> 00:03:05.663
You know you think you're getting a bigger closet.

00:03:05.663 --> 00:03:08.926
When you move, your closet ends up being smaller even though it's bigger.

00:03:08.926 --> 00:03:09.889
It's a weird deal.

00:03:09.889 --> 00:03:13.368
All you single guys, you you probably don't understand.

00:03:13.368 --> 00:03:15.546
Okay, and I resisted this fight for a while.

00:03:15.546 --> 00:03:23.689
Okay, and eventually we just had to buy a dresser and that's where I keep all my clothes from high school that will fit me someday again.

00:03:23.689 --> 00:03:29.627
I promise I'm not throwing those shirts away, like that old Billabong shirt I have from 2007,.

00:03:29.627 --> 00:03:38.307
That Volcom shirt that my wife, you know, got rid of, apparently to the local shelter and you know, a month later it fit.

00:03:38.307 --> 00:03:38.949
Would have fit me.

00:03:38.949 --> 00:03:40.605
I think it would have fit me, you know.

00:03:40.605 --> 00:03:43.768
So like and where I'm going with all this is.

00:03:43.807 --> 00:03:44.550
This is waivers.

00:03:44.550 --> 00:03:47.506
We sometimes hold on to stuff too long.

00:03:47.506 --> 00:03:52.906
Sometimes we get rid of stuff too soon, like my wife got rid of my Volcom shirt and I love that green Volcom shirt.

00:03:52.906 --> 00:03:54.385
I had it since sophomore year of high school.

00:03:54.385 --> 00:03:59.110
But I think we all have those shirts that we just cannot get rid of, guys.

00:03:59.110 --> 00:04:04.348
And then sometimes they're gone and then you see a guy in a small town wearing the same shirt and you go.

00:04:04.348 --> 00:04:05.342
That's my shirt right there.

00:04:05.342 --> 00:04:16.512
Just like when you drop somebody to waivers after week one and all of a sudden you get beat by that guy that you dropped a couple weeks later because you dropped him too soon.

00:04:16.512 --> 00:04:20.858
Okay, I know, I'm sorry for you know the whole rant about closet space.

00:04:20.858 --> 00:04:22.240
You know how rough my life is.

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:23.781
Like.

00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:27.615
Week one is coming, gone, it's time for our first round of waivers.

00:04:27.615 --> 00:04:37.533
Which players are we going to keep, which players are going to go to that sacred IR spot and which player are we finally going to cut Just so that they can come back and haunt us the rest of the season?

00:04:37.533 --> 00:04:40.403
Guys that get cut every year.

00:04:40.403 --> 00:04:43.154
You know a Cordero Patterson got cut a couple years ago.

00:04:43.154 --> 00:04:49.879
A guy in one of my leagues dropped George Kittle last year, like don't rage, drop If you have that IR spot.

00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:55.362
This year seems like there's a lot of injuries, don't know why, because it seems like guys don't even play in preseason anymore.

00:04:55.362 --> 00:04:56.947
We have guys missing week one.

00:04:56.947 --> 00:05:01.185
Mark Andrews missed week one, but tight end was a complete blood bath this week.

00:05:01.185 --> 00:05:02.507
But here we are.

00:05:02.507 --> 00:05:11.552
So I have my favorite waiver ads and I guess streaming options are all rostered below 67% on sleeper.

00:05:12.293 --> 00:05:18.148
And no, this intro was not inspired by that dry fit Dallas Cowboys t-shirt I wore Monday night.

00:05:18.148 --> 00:05:22.247
That kind of looks like a tight fit and guys, tight fits, that's an under armor thing.

00:05:22.247 --> 00:05:23.192
So it was a Nike shirt.

00:05:23.192 --> 00:05:25.682
So give me a break, get off my back, remember?

00:05:25.682 --> 00:05:26.846
Don't be rude.

00:05:26.846 --> 00:05:28.028
Share the dudes next.

00:05:28.028 --> 00:05:31.675
You know like, yeah, it's a tight shirt.

00:05:31.675 --> 00:05:34.528
If you want to look tight, go over to Manscape.

00:05:34.569 --> 00:05:37.281

Also sleeper best place to play fancy football.

00:06:20.670 --> 00:06:27.879
I will not join a league that is not in sleeper, even though I got suckered into that terrible work league that's on ESPN.

00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:29.064
That's a long story.

00:06:29.064 --> 00:06:29.887
It's a weird league.

00:06:29.887 --> 00:06:30.571
It's even weird.

00:06:30.571 --> 00:06:32.137

Guys, really helps us out.

00:06:37.596 --> 00:06:41.990
So here we go, jumping into the waiver, said I'd keep it quick, doing the best I can.

00:06:41.990 --> 00:06:43.896
Hopefully you got a little laughs, maybe a little chuckles.

00:06:43.896 --> 00:06:48.374
Who knows, to a tag of a Vova can't say that guy's name.

00:06:48.374 --> 00:06:49.577
I need to learn it.

00:06:49.577 --> 00:06:54.692
Not a good reader, even worse at hard names like that 67% rostered.

00:06:54.692 --> 00:06:56.978
Hey, tyreek Hill had a great game.

00:06:57.581 --> 00:07:04.677
But to also spread the ball, the seven different wide receivers tough matchup this week New England versus New England.

00:07:04.677 --> 00:07:07.110
But the dolphins are an absolute track team.

00:07:07.110 --> 00:07:12.649
If they can protect to a and keep them healthy, that division could be theirs.

00:07:12.649 --> 00:07:17.504
Okay, like to a was throwing absolute dimes out there.

00:07:17.504 --> 00:07:19.572
They don't call him the point pounder for nothing.

00:07:19.572 --> 00:07:22.223
This guy looked unbelievable To.

00:07:22.223 --> 00:07:24.449
A should not only be 67% rostered.

00:07:24.449 --> 00:07:27.841
There is so much speed on that team Pick to a up.

00:07:27.841 --> 00:07:29.987
He outplayed a lot of guys this week.

00:07:29.987 --> 00:07:31.615
Top five QB on the week.

00:07:31.615 --> 00:07:33.963
I'm not looking at the stats to see what he was for.

00:07:33.963 --> 00:07:36.031
The whole entire week he was up there.

00:07:36.031 --> 00:07:41.348
Tyreek Hill went off, like I said, but to a throws on the ball, he's got waddle, that's got.

00:07:41.348 --> 00:07:41.911
Get involved.

00:07:41.911 --> 00:07:44.079
This is a very talented offense.

00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:47.511
Can that offensive line protect to a and keep them healthy?

00:07:48.675 --> 00:07:49.918
I love to a this week.

00:07:49.918 --> 00:07:51.384
I don't love to this week.

00:07:51.384 --> 00:07:51.785
I love to.

00:07:51.785 --> 00:07:53.728
As a quarterback he needs to be rostered.

00:07:53.728 --> 00:07:59.492
Speaking of love, jordan love, 38% rostered tossed three touchdown passes.

00:07:59.492 --> 00:08:06.637
He's the new Packers starter and he didn't even have Christian Watson, his most experienced number one pass, pass catcher.

00:08:06.637 --> 00:08:09.144
I think loves just scratching the surface.

00:08:09.144 --> 00:08:09.565
Guys.

00:08:09.565 --> 00:08:13.317
Packers defense is good, which maybe hurts Jordan love.

00:08:13.317 --> 00:08:15.384
I think the Packers defense is good.

00:08:15.384 --> 00:08:18.636
Maybe Justin's fields isn't good, maybe the Bears aren't good, I don't know.

00:08:18.636 --> 00:08:24.077
I do know Jordan loves good, good matchup this week against the Falcons.

00:08:24.077 --> 00:08:25.083
Hopefully the Falcons can.

00:08:25.083 --> 00:08:25.262
You know.

00:08:25.262 --> 00:08:26.869
I think the Falcons can put up points.

00:08:26.869 --> 00:08:27.971
I'm a Falcons guy.

00:08:27.971 --> 00:08:30.300
Jordan love, 38% rostered.

00:08:30.300 --> 00:08:31.463
Pick them up.

00:08:31.463 --> 00:08:32.505
You can play him.

00:08:32.505 --> 00:08:34.129
I like him.

00:08:34.129 --> 00:08:36.293
He'll only get better with Watson.

00:08:36.894 --> 00:08:40.427
Next on the list I have Jared Goff, 20% rostered.

00:08:40.427 --> 00:08:47.350
Good matchup this week versus Seattle who just got carved up for 300 yards by a coupless Rams team.

00:08:47.350 --> 00:08:49.697
No Cooper Cup they got you know.

00:08:49.697 --> 00:08:50.922
They got Pukaed on.

00:08:50.922 --> 00:08:51.924
It's a great.

00:08:51.924 --> 00:08:54.187
It's a good matchup for Jared Goff.

00:08:54.187 --> 00:09:00.240
Lions I think are pretty good and guys like come on, you're not gonna not start Joe Burrow this week.

00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:06.696
You're not gonna not start Josh Allen, jaylen Hertz I know those guys had some bad games, but keep playing them.

00:09:06.696 --> 00:09:07.518
Okay, trust me.

00:09:07.518 --> 00:09:12.793
Jared Goff Next quarterback I got Sam Howe, 2% rostered.

00:09:13.254 --> 00:09:19.158
Had a rushing touchdown that really saved him this past week has an okay matchup versus the Broncos.

00:09:19.158 --> 00:09:20.535
This is more of a stash for me.

00:09:20.535 --> 00:09:22.857
I need to see a little bit more out of Sam Howe.

00:09:22.857 --> 00:09:26.309
I know he kind of got hyped up in the preseason.

00:09:26.309 --> 00:09:28.610
He has good weapons.

00:09:28.610 --> 00:09:32.929
I was kind of let down on how he did this past week against the Cardinals.

00:09:32.929 --> 00:09:35.289
I think Sam Howe will be just fine.

00:09:35.289 --> 00:09:37.328
He's a sneaky runner.

00:09:37.369 --> 00:09:39.809
Also, here's my Yolo ball in the quarterback position.

00:09:39.809 --> 00:09:45.147
Zach Wilson, only if you're feeling dangerous, only if it's a deep leg and only if it's super flexed.

00:09:45.147 --> 00:09:49.484
Probably this is just more of a hey if you got that extra.

00:09:49.484 --> 00:09:50.408
You know IR spot.

00:09:50.408 --> 00:09:52.889
Maybe Mark Andrews is on there, maybe someone else has hurt.

00:09:52.889 --> 00:09:54.948
Go ahead and just add Zach Wilson.

00:09:54.948 --> 00:09:57.009
If you got roster space, you don't have to keep them that long.

00:09:57.009 --> 00:09:59.336
It's just a wait and see.

00:09:59.336 --> 00:10:03.470
You know, just stash, stash the cash, all right, running back.

00:10:03.470 --> 00:10:10.809
So my quarterbacks I had two Jordan Love, jared Goff, sam Howe and then my Yolo play, zach Wilson, handing it off to the running backs.

00:10:11.893 --> 00:10:19.649
Tyler Algier is 46% rostered on a team that absolutely loves to run the football down their opponent's throat.

00:10:19.649 --> 00:10:27.690
Number one waiver wire of the week led the Falcons in rushing attempts and rushing yards played 56% of the snaps in week one.

00:10:27.690 --> 00:10:36.730
I do think Bijan is going to get better every week but, like Jordan said, both of these guys can get the ball and Arthur Smith loves running the ball.

00:10:36.730 --> 00:10:41.844
Tyler Algier, pick them up and play him.

00:10:41.844 --> 00:10:46.528
Next on the list I have Kenneth Gainwell, 6% rostered.

00:10:46.528 --> 00:10:48.489
Looks to be the starting running back for the Eagles.

00:10:48.489 --> 00:10:50.609
I know he didn't practice on Monday.

00:10:50.609 --> 00:10:53.385
I believe they're playing on Thursday night football.

00:10:53.385 --> 00:10:54.009
Looks like a short week.

00:10:54.009 --> 00:10:55.081
Kenneth Gainwell, pick them up.

00:10:55.081 --> 00:10:57.546
He had 14 carries this past week.

00:10:57.546 --> 00:11:01.490
Team that likes to run the football.

00:11:01.490 --> 00:11:05.686
Next on my list I have Kyron Williams, 6% rostered.

00:11:05.686 --> 00:11:08.620
Got the goal line work last week.

00:11:08.620 --> 00:11:09.846
Has Seattle had Seattle?

00:11:09.846 --> 00:11:12.289
Last week they got a tough matchup versus the 49ers.

00:11:12.289 --> 00:11:15.102
So I'm probably not playing him.

00:11:15.102 --> 00:11:19.277
But again, use that IR spot to your advantage.

00:11:19.957 --> 00:11:24.610
And speaking about advantages underdog dude's favorite place to play DFS.

00:11:24.610 --> 00:11:25.849
They got drafts.

00:11:25.849 --> 00:11:28.139
They have.

00:11:28.139 --> 00:11:30.169
You know they got some over unders, all that good stuff.

00:11:30.169 --> 00:11:33.240
Guys, inter promo code dudes.

00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:34.645
They will match up to $100.

00:11:34.645 --> 00:11:40.378
Week one was not good to your dudes was not good Monday night football.

00:11:40.378 --> 00:11:43.669
We were Garrett Wilson catch away from cash.

00:11:43.669 --> 00:11:45.928
Okay, aaron Rogers got hurt.

00:11:45.928 --> 00:11:48.808
Garrett Wilson, like I said, climb the ladder with no hands.

00:11:48.808 --> 00:11:53.225
Still, we need one more catch, garrett.

00:11:53.225 --> 00:11:54.169
So don't worry, we're not counting you out.

00:11:54.169 --> 00:11:57.368
I'm sure that receiving line, reception line will go a little lower.

00:11:57.368 --> 00:11:58.808
We'll take the over again.

00:11:58.808 --> 00:12:08.902
Mama didn't raise a quitter and grandma needs a new pair of shoes, so underdog promo code dudes, match up to $100 really helps us out.

00:12:08.902 --> 00:12:12.360
Fourth on the list, I have justice hill slash.

00:12:13.270 --> 00:12:16.080
Gus Edwards looks like a running back by committee to me.

00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:17.996
He'll got all the red goal.

00:12:17.996 --> 00:12:21.672
Line work last week could be a hot hand approach, not sure.

00:12:21.672 --> 00:12:24.437
Jk Dobbins sad to see him go out like this.

00:12:24.437 --> 00:12:26.342
Really liked watched him in Ohio State.

00:12:26.342 --> 00:12:31.121
Never felt like he could stay healthy in the league, always been really high on him.

00:12:31.121 --> 00:12:34.235
But just a sale, gus Edwards.

00:12:34.235 --> 00:12:35.960
They need to be rostered guys.

00:12:36.221 --> 00:12:42.038
So go ahead and add them and, If you're feeling lucky, play one of them.

00:12:42.038 --> 00:12:44.970
At the moment I don't know who it's going to be.

00:12:44.970 --> 00:12:49.888
Maybe as the week goes on, maybe by the time you hear this pod, we know hey, it is gonna be justice.

00:12:49.888 --> 00:12:51.192
Hey, it is gonna be Gus Edwards.

00:12:51.192 --> 00:12:54.495
So let's throw it over to the wide receivers.

00:12:54.495 --> 00:12:56.841
I am going to butcher this name.

00:12:56.841 --> 00:12:59.816
It is puka Nakua, I believe.

00:12:59.816 --> 00:13:06.190
Excuse me, is he the next Cooper cup or is this, like my closet, just a big tease?

00:13:06.190 --> 00:13:09.957
He had 15 targets week one and 10 receptions.

00:13:09.957 --> 00:13:20.417
Again tough matchup against the 49ers, but this should be one of the most popular waiver ads of the week, especially for those PPR in half PPR leagues.

00:13:20.417 --> 00:13:25.835
Give puka a shot, adam, maybe play him.

00:13:25.835 --> 00:13:27.072
We'll see.

00:13:27.072 --> 00:13:28.173
I kind of want to wait and see.

00:13:28.173 --> 00:13:30.119
Is Matthew Stafford back?

00:13:30.119 --> 00:13:32.003
You can also add Van Jefferson.

00:13:32.003 --> 00:13:33.914
He, not Van Jefferson.

00:13:33.914 --> 00:13:35.519
Do not add Van Jefferson.

00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:38.206
You know I belong in a van down by the river.

00:13:38.206 --> 00:13:39.610
Add to to at.

00:13:39.610 --> 00:13:41.114
Well, that's the guy we want to add.

00:13:41.114 --> 00:13:41.876
He's the other one.

00:13:41.876 --> 00:13:44.734
He's my number two on that Ramstein, but it looks like it's puka.

00:13:45.054 --> 00:13:48.695
Really good career at BYU Started off pretty hot.

00:13:48.695 --> 00:13:51.730
There was a lot of coach speak about how good this guy was in camp.

00:13:51.730 --> 00:13:53.875
Looks like the real deal so far.

00:13:53.875 --> 00:13:54.758
Now to another rookie.

00:13:54.758 --> 00:13:56.081
We have Ze flowers.

00:13:56.081 --> 00:14:00.317
Look great in week one, even though Lamar Jackson struggled.

00:14:00.317 --> 00:14:02.623
He had nine receptions for 70 plus yards.

00:14:02.623 --> 00:14:10.796
I just want to see how Ze can do when Mark Andrews is back, because at the moment we know Lamar loves Mark Andrews.

00:14:10.796 --> 00:14:15.903
Mark Andrews is really good, but Ze flowers did really good.

00:14:15.903 --> 00:14:17.269
Maybe they open each other up.

00:14:17.269 --> 00:14:24.649
I I still think Mark Andrews is number one there, but maybe Ze flowers is playable each week.

00:14:24.649 --> 00:14:26.433
None of the other receivers really scare me.

00:14:26.875 --> 00:14:30.263
Talking about Ze, here's our other Ze for Ze Jones.

00:14:30.263 --> 00:14:32.418
Did he surpass Christian cup?

00:14:32.418 --> 00:14:33.666
Is the number two in this offense?

00:14:33.666 --> 00:14:34.470
I'm not quite sure.

00:14:34.470 --> 00:14:42.058
I do believe that Trevor Lawrence will spread the ball around, though, and Calvin Ridley is really gonna open things up.

00:14:42.058 --> 00:14:44.429
Teams are going to have to concentrate on him.

00:14:44.429 --> 00:14:47.260
They might be a popular option around the red zone.

00:14:47.260 --> 00:14:49.148
Maybe he's touch the undependent.

00:14:49.148 --> 00:14:49.610
I don't know.

00:14:49.610 --> 00:14:52.638
Maybe this is a guy you can get without putting it a waiver.

00:14:52.638 --> 00:14:53.399
I'm not sure.

00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:54.422
I don't know how your league is.

00:14:54.422 --> 00:14:56.073
Maybe it's only a deep league ad.

00:14:56.073 --> 00:15:03.437
Ze Jones seems to be a guy that can find their red zone Are the end zone, so maybe this is the other way.

00:15:03.437 --> 00:15:04.520
So both Zays for you.

00:15:04.921 --> 00:15:10.458
Romeo dubs Seems like this guy's been on my list every single week.

00:15:10.458 --> 00:15:12.293
Last year he's on it again.

00:15:12.293 --> 00:15:13.238
He was starts the week.

00:15:13.238 --> 00:15:13.599
Last year.

00:15:13.599 --> 00:15:21.159
There was a lot of a lot, a lot of hype around Romeo dubs all Last offseason and even week to week with Aaron Rodgers.

00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:24.793
So Romeo dubs it's kind of like that shirt.

00:15:24.793 --> 00:15:26.356
I think it's gonna fit me next month.

00:15:26.356 --> 00:15:28.000
It doesn't still doesn't.

00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:29.062
Hopefully we get there soon.

00:15:29.062 --> 00:15:34.003
Romeo dubs Adam Maybe don't play him, let's see how he does.

00:15:34.003 --> 00:15:35.289
What's Christian Watson's back?

00:15:35.289 --> 00:15:38.801
But I think Romeo dubs is going to do good, all right.

00:15:38.902 --> 00:15:41.409
Finally, my last ads of the show.

00:15:41.409 --> 00:15:42.692
I got tight ends.

00:15:42.692 --> 00:15:50.775
Luke Musgrave, another packer, the cheese heads, athletic freak, fastest past catcher in Green Bay.

00:15:50.775 --> 00:15:58.299
Like I said on our last episode, there's a couple miss throws away by love from a huge day.

00:15:58.299 --> 00:16:02.318
Grab them while you can, because I think this guy's about to blow up.

00:16:02.379 --> 00:16:04.350
I know there's all the stuff about rookie tight ends.

00:16:04.350 --> 00:16:10.070
This guy had a really good game, not a really good fancy, he could have had a really good fancy game.

00:16:10.070 --> 00:16:15.470
There was a couple big plays that love just barely missed him, and I'm about barely missing things.

00:16:15.470 --> 00:16:24.530
Jake Bergeson the guy couldn't catch a cold in the rain on Sunday night football but Dak just kept targeting him.

00:16:24.530 --> 00:16:28.250
The catches eventually are going to come stash him.

00:16:28.250 --> 00:16:30.508
He might be really good in a couple of weeks.

00:16:30.508 --> 00:16:32.586
Maybe it's not yet, but let's wait and see.

00:16:33.059 --> 00:16:37.486
Dak loves tight ends, okay, so pick up Jake Ferguson.

00:16:37.486 --> 00:16:46.225
And hey, if you don't have a tight end, you're one of those guys that's like light round tight end and you just wanna find somebody you can pick up and plug and play.

00:16:46.225 --> 00:16:49.409
And I think if you just keep playing Jake Ferguson.

00:16:49.409 --> 00:16:51.725
Eventually you're gonna be really happy and he'll be really consistent.

00:16:51.725 --> 00:16:56.525
It's gonna take him maybe another week or two, but the volume is there.

00:16:56.525 --> 00:16:59.128
Dak loves the tight ends.

00:16:59.128 --> 00:17:01.427
This guy's more athletic than Dalton Schultz.

00:17:01.427 --> 00:17:02.524
Dak really likes him.

00:17:02.524 --> 00:17:05.508
Just I really like Ferguson.

00:17:06.299 --> 00:17:07.826
Next on my list I have Hunter Henry.

00:17:07.826 --> 00:17:09.526
He had a TD versus the Eagles.

00:17:09.526 --> 00:17:14.106
Mac Jones will have to keep airing it out this week If the Patriots want to get in the win column.

00:17:14.106 --> 00:17:17.108
Donald Parham had a touchdown against the Finns last week.

00:17:17.108 --> 00:17:25.152
Maybe this is a point of weakness that Mac Jones can pick on the Dolphins with Hunter Henry.

00:17:25.152 --> 00:17:28.388
So, hunter Henry, I believe you can play him this week also.

00:17:28.388 --> 00:17:32.049
Last on the list I have Donald Parham or Gerald Everett.

00:17:32.049 --> 00:17:37.585
I'm unsure which of these tight ends will get the touchdown this week versus the Titans, but I imagine one of them will.

00:17:37.585 --> 00:17:40.148
Just like I imagine my Letterman's jacket will fit me again.

00:17:40.148 --> 00:17:43.867
