Welcome. We are live and we will wait for a few people to jump in. Um I did 10 of the drafters $330 splashes or I did 11 of them. You do 10, you get a free ticket. And I put 33 in, ended up cashing out for uh it was 198 for the contest. I placed with five lineups, three lineups. Men cashed got one 150th out of 3,300 and I got one that was seventh overall. The seventh overall lineup is right here. And by the way, congratulations to Big Draft Energy who got second. That is awesome for BDE. Let’s see what he done first. What’s up, Hulk? Thanks for popping in. Uh, so he had Lamar, CMC, Derek Henry, Brian Thomas, Hookah, Z Flowers, Trey McBride, and James Cook. Just an awesome awesome lineup there. Like, and he was still 10 points away from first. First, he had Josh Allen instead of Lamar basically. CMC, HN, Puka, JSN, Eggbuka. Scrolled down for Ibuka, the George KD, Derk Henry. We’ll move on down to my lineup. I uh I lost a parlay on the Bills winning the game. Like, if the Bills lost the game, I I turned 10 bucks into 150. But Josh Allen scoring at the end turned this into the 150 basically that I was that I would have got the other way. So it was kind of like like if they would have missed the two-point conversion or if they would have uh not got the ball back, I would have won on both. That would have been the best case scenario. But my team was I had Bejon 101 and I full faded Joe Burrow and I also partially faded I I had no Gibbs shares because I had Achan above like I had Achan and Gibbs rated basically the same and Gibbs always went at the four five or the 56 turn. So I didn’t end up with a share and I I will probably do something similar. Uh we’ll talk about that game tomorrow with Steve. But I had Josh Allen and we could you can look at the draft board. So the quarterbacks get pushed a lot on this site. I got B John at three. H Josh Allen all the way down here. Puka, Trey McBride at 18, Kamara at 23. These are fiveman pods. Uh Ted McMillan Z Flowers. So Josh Allen, Bejan, HN, Puka, Ted, Z, the only sher I had in the contest. Luckily, it came on the right team. Uh, I specifically did that because I was hoping to get Derk Henry. Um, but he went there because I I really like that was the earliest I’ I’d seen Dererick Henry go. Um, so I ended up with the bring back since I got Josh Allen. I got the bring back and T McMillan had a solid game as well. So could turn in to kill me now depending on Jordan Mason tonight. Got it. What’s up Dark Side? Harbaugh not trusting Lamar on fourth down cost me. Yep, that’s exactly what it was. Like the fact that like just the the whole way that that game went like the Bills deciding to punt the ball on a fourth and eight or whatever whenever they hadn’t stopped the Ravens offense the entire game and then they actually stopped the offense for the first time for the entire basically for the entire game. Like that decision shouldn’t have worked out. It did. and then fourth and one or two having Lamar and Derk Henry and not going for it. Yes, they’re in field goal range to win the game if you miss, but you play as as a famous head coach once said, you play to win the game, right? You don’t play to not let the other team win. You play to win. And the best way for them to win the game was to secure that first down. against an offense like that. If they were against the Saints, probably punt the ball. Not against You don’t do that against KC. You don’t do that against Buffalo. You don’t do that against uh Philadelphia. Like, you just don’t do that versus the really good offensive teams. I got a lot of tight ends hitting your flex spots this week. It’s wild that, you know, tight ends can hit the flex, as I’ve been saying, all off season. uh like you don’t want like you don’t necessarily want them to, but taking two good tight ends or taking three scrub tight ends is a good way to like kind of get your floor up. All right, so now we’ll move on over and we’ll look at the other lineups I had that cashed. Um, I don’t know why it backed all the way out. So, this lineup was also it was Josh Allen, Achan, Bejan, that was like my core this week. Mike Evans did me dirty. T. Higgins did me even dirtier. Uh, I also had Derrick Henry on this one. If I had the wide receiver rooms flopped basically, I would have won basically first and second uh or first and like ninth. Also, calling the timeout 30 seconds was not funny. Yeah. Yeah. It What’s up, Devin? Glad to see the league MVP defend. Yeah, man. Like Pepper Tony’s like if you don’t like this, you don’t like Revenants football. Like like and Andy’s right like that’s what they do. They choke. Like and they only do it in big spots like prime time game, something like that. But like generally the Ravens dominate regular season big games. I I almost put an an unfathomable amount on Derrick Henry to score a touchdown last night. I wish I would have. I like as the game was coming closer, I’m like, man, like I just I don’t see how it doesn’t happen. Yeah. So, this team, I crushed those positions. I crushed the flex, got a good tight end score, hit Ricky P. had two pretty dead spots there uh that cost me pretty big. Like that team had 149 points and if id have got five more like I mean it it wasn’t going to make a ton of money unless I nailed the same receivers I had here like unless I hit the Z flowers, right? Uh another one of the cashing lineups I had shocker again. Achan and Josh Allen. Josh Allen, Achan, McAffrey, London, Neighbors, and Tent McMillan. Neighbors five for 71. Didn’t feel like he done much, but he kind of got there. KD bad run out for anybody who had KD yesterday. I feel bad for Gritty cashing out. Oh, did he? I almost cashed out that parlay I had. It was Keon Coleman touchdown, Dererick Henry touchdown, and uh Ravens to cover the spread. And when it was down whenever the Bills were down eight, I looked and I could have cashed it for like 85% of the winnings. So, I basically lost like I could have cashed out the the $10 bet, paid out 150 at win. I could have cashed out for 135 and I didn’t. But like the Ravens had to completely Ravens that game for that to happen. Um I I probably I never was. I was just curious what it was. Like I was making sure that I’d hit the other legs basically. I was like, “Oh, I can cash it out for this much.” I’m like, “Nah, they they can’t lose this.” That’s why I said to Pepperoni that it was probably my fault that they lost. Another cashing lineup, Lamar, Bejon, Achan. Like Han and Bjan was my core. Achan got there kind of luckily at the end of the game. Also really like Puka and Neighbors. neighbors if he would have got a touchdown which obviously that increases everybody by a lot but like he had a solid game. He was basically right at his projection. Ricky Pieraw Andrews did me very dirty here. Like that was the my worst lineup and that would have just kind of put it up with the other ones. But James Connor. All right. So, now to my bags. We got uh we’ll start with the RBs. Jarquest Hunter, healthy scratch, not good. Will Shipley hurt with uh no information on it yet. Taj Brooks, I didn’t see him get a single carry. Eckler was good. Rashad White, his usage was not good from what I seen. That’s one of the games I got through. Toten looks like he’s going to be good. Like it it looks like when he got in, he flashed. Uh Tank like all I mean it was Carolina’s rush defense. All four running backs looked fine. Uh but it does kind of look like Tootton like really did flash. ETN kind of ran through some wide openen holes. He made one one or two really good plays, but it looked like everything was blocked for him very well. Hampton went up against KC’s defense. Didn’t expect much from him week one. He still he looked he didn’t look great, but he didn’t look bad either. He just never really had rushing lanes. James Connor dog Breeze Hall that feels really good right now. Uh although most of those shares are in the third. I had 16% whenever the usage started happening and I kind of I took them a little bit in the fifth but not that often. Taj that’s still up in the air. Pacheco doesn’t feel great. Um like I I’m I still believe that Pacheco will be the lead back most of the season. Uh but he didn’t do anything week one. What? Jury’s still out on Jordan Mason. Judkins, we got really good news there. I I started buying in again at the end. Brashard Smith. Uh so Xavier Worthy. Um Xavier Worthy is listed dayto day and he’s going to try to play without getting surgery. So is what I heard. So hopefully that is true. Uh, if that’s not true, Bashard Smith, I think we’ll see an increased role, but that’s just a guess. Dobbins was good. Giddens got in for a little bit. Taylor went out of the game, uh, but is fine. Fard like Denver’s defense is insane. Brilland Allen was awesome. Alier got a lot of touches. Like, I feel pretty good about all this. What I don’t feel good about is Krosky Merritt 3.6%. 6%. I I basically faded him like whenever he went all the way up whenever he was going in the 140s one one to 130s. I took some shares of them. I mixed them in at a very small amount early on. This is more than I thought I was going to have, but I only have $57 on them, so it’s all in like lower dollar contest. Um, he looked he looked really good. Like I was more in on Christian or Chris Rodriguez there at the end. Uh you don’t see it here, but on DraftKings I took a bunch of them. I still think that Eckler and Merritt will both be the guys. Um Zachar awesome, but yeah, Bill could could be a death nail to me. Uh, Kairen Williams got all the carries again. Uh, Hunter being a healthy scratch kind of shocked me. The Puka Adams feels awesome. That feels like it’s the right way to do it. Higgby was in for most of the game. That feels fine as well. Uh, other players like Javvante, I I just don’t see that happening again. Rico Dattle had a thousand yards last year and only ended up with two touchdowns because of that offense. I just I think that Jaylen Carter going out of the game completely tanked their offense or their defensive plans and the rookie would have not done well against Jayla Carter. Um but them getting the short short yardage touchdowns really good for Javvante. My prediction is that the Javvante thing is going to be like the Bills stuff I think is going to be sticky and say the Gavvante stuff I feel like he’ll have two or three big spikes and that’ll be it and he’ll put up like a bunch of four, five, six point weeks and be kind of like Isaiah likely was last year. That’s uh Jaden Blue wasn’t healthy. Yeah. And he had he didn’t do anything. He ran through holes and that was it. Like he never like really cut didn’t like it. He did nothing that scared me is what I’ll say. Like I can be wrong. Like he he could continue to just have a great offensive line in front of him, right? Like that could happen here. This felt pretty good. Justin Herbert 13.5% feels good. Jaden at 14.2 2 and Lamar like that feels awesome. Fields overweight also feels really good. Momes overweight. I don’t know about that, but like Drake May offensive line didn’t look as as good as we were hoping. Um, who knows what happens there. Like he’ll have some big games, he’ll have some bad games. Bryce Young, that game was wild. like he got a bunch of high snaps. They had a long wait. It’s It kind of felt like after the big delay that the Panthers offense as a whole just didn’t work very well. And like it kind of felt that way with Jacksonville too because if I have the timing right, like after the delay is where Lawrence started messing BTJ on throws a lot because pretty much every time he targeted BTJ and only BTJ, the throw was like way off. Uh so back to the quarterbacks, we’ll go down to the bottom of the list. Aaron Rogers looked very good like he may end up being the steel of the drafts. Uh we we’ll get into what I thought about the game tomorrow with Steve Dak. Don’t feel bad about that. Don’t feel bad about that. Daniel Jones, that could be too low. I’ll tell you what’s too high. That’s Anthony Richardson at 6.8%. But we were shooting for upside. Um, Joe Burrow, I still feel fine about being underweight on him. I I tried to push him a lot. The Josh Allen, a 5.2, I like I still think that Lamar’s the better and Lamar’s the better bet for the entire season. Yes, Josh Allen was like he he could be quarterback one any week. Uh, but I have five I think 5%’s enough. Um, Herz also like somehow he scored two rushing touchdowns and still only put up like 21 points. Darnold, I wish I wouldn’t have started getting in on him later because that offensive line did not look good. So, there’s those bags. We’ll go to tight end real quick. Mason Taylor, that’s a late season play. Mark Andrews only had the one like I think he only had one catch. Um so but like we know that that’s going to work out eventually just like Zack Herds like hopefully this works out. Bowers went out with the leg injury and the coaches said that he wanted to go back into the game. It was scary though because he literally like was on a route and like stopped mid route non-cont and then kind of looked down and then went off the field himself but like something happened and it was non and non-cont is always very scary. Hunter Henry feels good. Drake May definitely targeted the tight ends a bunch. Uh, Javius Sanders, that could be a bad bad decision. We will see how that works out. Players I’m a little low on. That could hurt me. Kottton did not like I think he got one target maybe. Um, I only remember one target. I just watched that game a little while ago. Uh, so back to quarterbacks. The Bon Knicks. Bo Nicks, like I watched that entire game. He did not look good. He did not look good at all. Uh I don’t know if he was nervous, it was what was going on, but he did not look good. Uh I I think it was a lot of Tennessee’s defensive line getting to him because their front four, their interior pass rush is actually really good. Nobody talks about them though. So, the Jaden Reed, Matthew Golden thing, I have 1.8% Reed. I was low on him before the injury stuff, but like uh he looked awesome out there. Like Jaden Reed looked very good. I am a little worried about the Matthew Golden stuff, but I do this was always a play postweek five. Uh they have a week five by week, so that feels fine. The Marson Lloyd doesn’t feel fine. And by the way, if you’re just popping in, please smash the like. Uh we got Tucker Craft at 7.2. I really liked him. I wish I would have got more. I just I started smashing Coloulston Leland at the end over him every time. Uh, Savon, we’ll see what happens with him. When Beday is getting six targets, you know, things aren’t great. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Uh, their their offensive like their offensive line is supposed to be really good. And week three of preeason, the Broncos had uh like the Saints looked really good defensively against them. And then week one against the Titans. The Titans defense looks pretty good against their front. So I I’m jury’s still kind of out there. Uh we we’ll see what happens. Like last year they they don’t really have anything different with their offensive line and they were really really good last year. I think it’s a lack of play this year and after the first few weeks they’ll get everything ironed out and be playing at at a very very good level. But yeah, the Jaden Reed thing could absolutely cook me. Um, Jaden Higgins got a chance. He let a ball go through for an interception. Uh, he was fine for a rookie week one. Pat Bryant, I I haven’t got to that game to watch the entire game yet. I don’t I haven’t seen if he got routes or not, but Diggs felt fine. He got five receptions, 50 yards, like that. That’s perfectly fine. Puka. I feel very good about my 15% Puka. Of all the wide receivers at the back end, he was the only one that really performed enough. Like Drake London didn’t. Uh like I’m overweight on all of them, but like Puka was the one I liked the most. Nico wasn’t great. Neighbors was okay. And uh BTJ like had a very bad game but got bailed out on a rushing touchdown. Uh, so like a lot of those guys weren’t weren’t great. So for my bag specifically, Devonte Smith did nothing. Rasheed Rice isn’t there till week seven. Mooney was out week one. Addison out for three weeks. And then uh where’s Worthy at? Worthy is up here somewhere. Oh, right here. And Worthy went out first play of the game. I was using Worthy as a early season play to get me through Mooney Adams and Jordan Addison. So if Worthy can’t play the next couple weeks, I’m probably in bad shape overall because I use that a lot. A player I continually talked about but I didn’t draft a whole lot was Quinton Johnson. Uh I really liked him. I just I don’t know. I just I kept not uh just kind of went over that a little bit ago. Um but I I think that the Packers look awesome. Tomorrow we’ll go more in depth. Steve Sha will be on with me. Uh we go live at 2 PM Central and we’re going to go game byame over everything. you go over usage and what we’ve been doing is I take the away team, he takes the home team, and we just discuss what what our takeaways were and we go through every game on the slate. Uh if you want to know that, tune in tomorrow. Uh but I the Packers looked awesome. They they look like and the Lions every fear that’s out there could come true, right? So hopefully like I’m curious what Steve thinks. Haven’t talked to him about it yet. So Cedric Tilman had a good game. Pieraw feels good. Hollywood feels awesome right now. Well, yeah. Like I only had like 5% whenever I was saying that he was a good pick and whenever he was going in the 190s because of a concussion, like at worst he was out two weeks. Uh, I started taking them a bunch again. Um, I had I have quite a bit of QJ in the DraftKings stuff and I have quite a bit of QJ in sprint, I believe. Yeah. Yeah. I I do like I haven’t got to that game specifically to watch it, so I’m going to reserve all my judgments. All I’ve seen is what was on Red Zone. Uh, I’m through about half of the week right now. Interior O line needs to gel. Yes, absolutely. Uh, we have too many receivers, man. Curious to see how Golden does. Yeah, I I’m I’m in on Golden. He’s my number one wide receiver. Uh, so we we are in for that. um Jaden Reed playing through that that injury like the Jones fracture that may not be a Jones fracture like that could be getting Jaden Reed in the 130s could end up being like what wins BBM if all that’s true like I never hated him as a player I always I’ve always liked him as a player I just didn’t like the situation with a round one and round three player coming in. Uh Dantavian Wixs was the one I always thought was a zero. I just thought with the capital the Packers spent at wide receiver that the Jaden Reed price should have been like three rounds later is all. Um which maybe I’m a fool. I mean I I will be a fool about several things. Yeah, that’s that’s what I was saying too is the the golden bet was always like it it was like yes, he could start off fast, but like week five is their buy, early buy. Like that’s one reason I got very into Coulson Leland at the end. They also have week five buy. Um but yeah, so Cedric Tilman looked really good. Kyle Williams, I’m watching that game right now. I’m at halftime. I haven’t seen anything uh at all. And yeah, what’s up fantasy dog? It’s hard for me to realize that I don’t have much of they don’t score points. It’s a good thing. Yeah, Green Bay is very much the socialist red line at wide receiver. We knew it would be. Yep. Yeah. It’s like they’re they’re going to be a best ball wide receiver room. They’re going to put up two, three, four, five points and then 18. That That’s what’s going to happen. It’s going to happen all season and you’re going to have to get used to it. McConi looked awesome. Uh Adnai Mitchell worked in like that. That’s a game I’m interested to discuss tomorrow. Godwin says he’s eyeing week five return. That would be good. Very good for me. I have a bag of Justin Jefferson, so we’ll see how that plays out tonight. So, like Minnesota, we’ll look through Minnesota. I have a lot of Minnesota’s passing game. That’s one of my bigger bets this year. I I went double on Mason and basically a blanket on Aaron Jones. And then the Bears, I don’t have a ton of. I have a bunch of the like I I’m almost at field with Burton. I’m o very overweight on Leland. only some Caleb Rome and DJ Moore. Like, I don’t want to get smoked by him. I could get smoked by DeAndre Swift. Uh Ben Johnson keeps saying that he really likes him. Uh we we’ll see how that ends up playing out. I could just have been wrong there. Keon Coleman, I he got bailed out, but like Josh Allen targeted him a lot. I haven’t looked at the numbers. I’ll look at it tomorrow, but that looked really good. Uh, Ibuka 9.3. Like, if you’re underweight Ibuka right now, you have to feel you have to feel pretty bad. Uh, because that that was a very very clean performance by Ibuka. Uh kind of like being low on Bill. You have to be a little worried. Packers barely passed in the second half. So game script played a role. Got it. Yeah, like I said, I haven’t got to that game yet, but I will. Pretty overweight Vikings and Bears. I did good at quarterback, tight end, running back. None of my high exposure. Yeah, I I don’t know what I want tonight. Um that hurt Jamar Chase. Like I did predict that like so the Browns for all intents and purposes should have won that game. Like absolutely they should have won that game. Uh I did say that I liked the under in that. I just thought the over would be a little higher. I didn’t make the bet, but I I was correct on that. Yeah, De Hop actually looked really good. He did not look like that last year at KC. So, I I wish bad things upon him. Uh he he also pushed off on that touchdown if you pay attention to it. He full extended his arm like he always does and then caught the ball one-handed because that’s the only move he knows. Uh, like I mean you could just go watch it. I’m not I’m not just being a hater. It is a fact. Uh, Jawan Jennings went out of the game hurt. He’s getting an MRI today. I mean, you’ve seen it. Uh, he I mean, like there’s you can’t deny what happened. Uh, Cavonte Turpin, I feel awesome about the lowown 6.7%. He had a ton. He was in on a ton of plays and got four touches and he is absolutely going to be a big part of that offense. You can tell already. So, anybody who was along like fantasy dog here, the turpin usage felt really, really good. I’m glad I stopped my stone fade on Debo because he looked really good too. Okay. So, that did come out. Oh, got it. I’m assuming. Yeah. Yeah. I haven’t looked to see that. All I know is that the worthy news came out that they’re going to see if he can play this week. So, he’s not ruled out for this week yet. bag defense. Got it. So, the one player that is very very alive to dominate this year is actually Harold Fannon. Like I did watch that game and my lord, he was everywhere. They had him and I’ll talk we’ll talk about tomorrow too, but they’re they they always kept they kept saying that like he was only a receiver, only a receiver. They had him on the interior runs at the goal line coming in on motion and taking on defensive tackles and he was block he was actually doing well in those blocks. So Harold Fannon is here to stay. That’s That is for sure. Yeah. Like that is for sure. He is here to stay. He had such a good game. Like it watching that game if like he outperformed every player on both teams like in the way he like in my eyes like he just looked like one of the best players on the field and Jamar Chase and T. Higgins were on the that same field. Uh, I mean, Miles Garrett looked like the single best player on the on the field. He Yeah, that would be that would be awesome. We have nor does any other streamer talk about the third string running backs. Yeah. Well, Martinez being active was expected. Jaden Blue I think is still hurt. Uh Jarquz or Rodri Jarquz Hunter was also inactive and Chris Rodriguez was an absolute shock to me. I could not believe that Rodriguez was hurt or was out. So that’s that’s my bags. Uh I will go to this real quick. Um, we’ll share this tab for the first quarter stuff. I’m currently advancing seven of 30 entries and five of 16 entries. Um, with a bunch of Mason, Hawinson, Thelen, McCarthy, Jones, Jefferson, and no Bears basically. Uh, I don’t expect to end up advancing that many of them, but like right now it feels like I have in this one, like I have a couple of them that are way up there. 165 points on that one. I think that one’s advanced. Uh, 139 should be good to advance. I have some that are close. This one probably safe. This one not. Uh, this one also safe. Probably uh, this one probably not safe. Let’s see what I have. I have no bears. Yeah. So, that one’s live to get lost. That one’s showing that I’m winning, but I am not. We have Zakias. We have a Zakias share here that we’re looking for. Uh, and then that one also looks pretty live to be good. So, it looks like I might get six of these 30 in. Uh, that would be pretty awesome if that happens. And then the other first quarter, that one looks live to win. That one looks live. Um, let’s see. Chris Rodriguez with Rashid Rice. Don’t think he’s going to do any good. This one still has Hawinson to go, so that one’s probably alive. first by a few points here. Uh Daniel Jones with the 29 points. Not Steve Sha, but there’s only one of him. Thank goodness. McNichols got some real snap. Yeah, he he did like I I do need to go back and watch that whole game. I think it’s the next one on the list. I didn’t have enough Josh Allen. I had like 18% advance rate on DK then I’m down I mean like advance rate after week one doesn’t matter unless it’s this contest where it is a week one you advance to week three or week two uh yeah so this one I do have the um so it might be live and on this one looks like it’s probably dead because I’m only up by.3 and there’s a bunch of teams down here with probably people to go. But if I advance four of 16, I’ll be very happy. And then if I advance six of the 30, I’ll be very happy. The elim I haven’t went through all them and looked. We can just look at exposures. Um, I think I had like Tilman had a decent day. Like if you look at these exposures, it’s probably not great. Um, Deario Douglas somehow got zero yards with a with a touchdown. Figure that out. Yeah. So, like I was doing the math. I think I’m going to advance like 30-ish teams at the 75, 32, 33 teams out of 75, which won’t feel that bad with the Rashid Rice 17% and the Judkins 10%. So, I also had a lot of uh Mooney had 12% Mooney and a bunch of worthy as well, 13% worthy. So, like if if I get to 35 of 75 teams, I I’m perfectly fine. Like if if I just get 30 of 75 out of this, I’m actually happy with how some of this stuff played out. Uh Gibbs, also my highest exposed player, was a dud. Um, so, so yeah, we we need some luck there tonight. Like if we go to Bears, I have a bunch of Rome, a bunch of Loveland, and a decent amount of Swift. In Minnesota, I assume I have a I actually I don’t have as much. Uh, that’s weird because I’m over on Jordan Mason in every other format and I I’m way over on Hawinson in most. So, I must have just punched a tight end on all these, but the the feels really good. 30% Pier and Tyler Warren. Yeah. And speaking of that, that one uh we’ll go back to this I ended up getting up to 7.7. I was at like 5% for a while. Um so hopefully like Tyler Warren just like Harold Fannon looked like he may have just been the best player on the field that day. So anyway, we are going to go to drafters. And uh I will go ahead and gloss over it again. Some of you weren’t here, but I ended up getting uh here we go. I ended up getting seventh out of 3,300 people on this for 170. And Big Draft Energy got eighth. By the way, Zero Zero got 16th. He had a hell of a lineup here. He had Josh Allen, Han, Henry. He got sunk by Devonte Adam. I mean, Devonte still had a fine game. Uh, but if that would have been like JSN, he would have been up there above me. Uh, Chuba, Bowers. So, like Zero doing some work. Big Draft Energy did some work. I did decent. Uh, I look down through here. This Beretta Jones James guy done a ton of them. I don’t know if they ended up winning or not. Uh, so yeah, I got a 7th, 158, 349, 382, and 559. I also had one near the bottom of everything. Let’s see. Let’s look at that one. Yeah, Disco. Also, my Joe Flacco team, uh, the Joe Flacco team shockingly didn’t win. Uh, but we’re going to go to the lobby here and we’re going to do Oh, I guess it filled. They had a $5. I did one uh and here it is. It’s uh I was hoping I could do one on stream. We’ll go to underdog, I guess. Uh Caleb Williams, Josh Jacobs, McLaren, Rome, Cole Kit, uh if you look at the draft, and then Austin Eckler. If you look at the draft, I was hoping I could push uh I was hoping that this player would take Zack Z over Lovelin and I could push him back. But I could see Cole Kat having a decent week one. Uh Loveland is a rookie. Um, but like I felt like building out that stack with Caleb was the best way to possibly push this into a bigger bigger win. Um, I do like Z will be on all the squads. Cole KT will probably be drafted only like probably 40 50%. I would like as a random guess. I don’t know. He was the fifth tight end listed. So, he is getting drafted just not all the time. week one, it kind of makes sense for the two that had a connection last year to still have it. Uh, but we will go over here to underdog then and we will look at twominut drills, the Sunday late slate. We’ll uh we’ll do a I haven’t looked at the matchups yet. I’m hope. Is there a $3? There we go. There’s a $3. We’re going to try the prime time hurry up, I think. If it’s still open. Let’s see where it is. Oh, the wild cat’s open now, too. Um, the hurryups here, that’s the one I like. So, the $5 open, we’ll do the $5 bash. It’s single entry. Anybody who wants in, I’m going to enter in 10 seconds. This is the single entry prime time bash going now. We if you want in you can get in. I haven’t looked at the slate for next week but I might go ahead and jump. So I will say that over on drafters or so on underdog I did one earlier. Um and here it is. It was a playbook last night. It already filled. Christian McCaffrey went late. Like he went at uh I got him pick five. So, and then I pulled up Connor later. I took naked Drake May versus Miami because their offense looked really bad. So, I went McCaffrey, Brian Thomas versus Cincinnati. Came back around, I took Trey McBride versus Carolina. And then on the way back, I took Connor and Ted McMillan and or I took uh Trey and Connor, I think, together. And then I comes back and I take uh T and Drake May or something. All right, so we get the two Sladen at the one, Cooler’s in the four. Good luck to everybody. I think the top two picks are these two. Yeah. Why are we doing this to ourselves? It’s the single entry. We can have some fun. I I think that what the first three picks are by far the best here and the fourth pick is not very good. Uh so like I don’t know. I might have fun with the single entry draft starts now. Which one does Sllayton want? Does he want Jefferson or does he want Jacobs? I I personally like one of them more than the other. I will tell you once you are done. I only did two drafts, but Sprite. Yeah, that’s the thing. Like I’m wanting to get some in. I think Josh Jacobs should be the one. the other RBs like it goes from Josh Jacobs to Aaron Jones, DeAndre Swift, JCM, and Ekler and George Mason. Like all of these other guys, like maybe Swift has a standalone role, but everyone else is in a in a committee, right? Josh Jacobs is not in a committee. He’s in a better offense. He’s in a really good offense and the uh Commanders defense isn’t known to be elite. I know they looked elite versus Russell Wilson, but so Zaranu makes the correct decision there in my opinion. And Coolers has to try to make stuff up. Oh, for the Sunday slate. Well, he he ended up going later because of the worry, right? Cooler’s autodrafts there or is he just uh trying to figure out what he wants to do? I do think that Swift should probably be the fourth pick there. I agree with his decision there. Just smacked my hand. Felt great. I I don’t Oh, do Oh, my bad. Uh, my bad. I do. You’re right. This feels like eating vegetables while high. All right. So, I’m gonna I’m gonna try to build something out here. Uh, so we’re going to do that. I The more I was thinking about it, I do I kind of like Jordan Love versus Washington a lot. Yeah. And Jacobs is easy 101 for me. I I think it’s pretty obvious. I got him at three on the on the drafters one I done today. on the drafters. Like I got him at 103 and I like that team. Sweet. I Tucker Craft was the player I wanted. So I I want to double stack this. Uh I think Love has a decent chance to be the best quarterback on this slate versus the Commanders. The thing is is I guess give me a rookie quarterback and his tight end safety blanket. I mean, so what just happened there? Like Cooler just got as lucky as he can because all the quarterbacks are gone. So he doesn’t have to take one and he’s got Swift already stacked up so he can just build out that game if he wants. So, he’ll probably take like Rome or DJ Moore, whichever one he likes more here. Maybe both. Uh, but he I would assume that like I know what I would do if I was him. Yeah. So, he takes DJ Moore. Yeah. I like if I were you, Sladen, I would I probably would have taken Hawinson and not McCarthy assuming Coolers was going to build out that game. Uh, so question is, is Jaden Reed really? He didn’t practice today. I think I want Eckler here. Yeah. Yeah. We want uh we want Eckler. Give him Rome. And then we will go with like probably I don’t really want to go with Jaden Reed. I guess I will. Um, I kind of just like doing that honestly. But we need two pass catchers if we have Jordan Love. So I like that’s the thing for me. I think if you take Jordan Love in one of these, you need at least two pass catchers. I don’t see him outscoring Jaden Daniels, McCarthy, and or Caleb Williams who all have some rushing unless he bring he gets touch two different touchdowns from multiple pass catchers. I never do the short slate stuff. Yeah. Well, yeah, you’re you like pick four really sucks. Like it it is not fun. surprised he didn’t take uh Oh, he’s going to take Loveland here. That’s perfect. That that Oh, you he didn’t he took Zack Hertz. That’s interesting. So, do I just do that? Or do I? Yeah, I think I think I just take Jordan Mason here. Uh, call it good. Yeah, I I I get it. That makes sense. And I was actually I was hoping Zack Z made it to me. I was going to take Z and Craft. I didn’t want Loveland here. Like I’m like I’m glad I got Mason over and I like the Man guy pick there. Uh so anybody who wants I am going to look at I’m just going to do a Wildcat just to kind of see the ADP and I’ll enter in 10 seconds. I’m going to do two like two of these or something and then log off. Uh I was just going to jump on for about an hour today. Do a little bit. I’m going to finish watching a couple of the games and then so we are waiting on one. I haven’t even looked at the slate. Um man, this running back slate is brutal. Absolutely brutal. Jamar Chase 101 in this week. Uh Derek, like this is my 101 102 in order. Let’s look at the quarterbacks. All three of the elites are here and it’s six people. Like I’m probably going to push quarterback. Uh Drake May gets Miami which I really like. And where does Field Fields gets Buffalo? He’ll be pushing for points. Uh that’s a bad offense as well. So like I feel like you can just push quarterback. If you happen to get Lamar, Josh Allen, or Herz in like the fourth round, take them. But I I don’t think that they should be valued that much over the rest of the field. Uh myself with all the rushing upside that we have. Kyler gets Carolina, Trevor Lawrence against Cincinnati. Like some of this feels really good. So yeah. Well, Coolers, congratulations on Jamar Chase at three. We got coolers at the 103 or and I’m at the 102. That has to feel good having Jamar there. We’re all just here to hold hands and pray as a group for Worthy’s health. Absolutely. I will I could probably call I could probably ask Davis Maddock to start the pray prayer circle and he’d probably be up for it. Uh, so yeah, the running backs on this slate like some the ones I like are are deeper. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, I don’t know how you take Henry over uh surprised you didn’t take Brian Thomas for the chase bring back. Um, so I’m just going to pull up James Connor. Uh, the the Carolina matchup’s too good. Like, I don’t care. I just want James Connor. I know that Coolers knows what he’s doing and Coolers might have take like there’s no way that James Connor makes it past 22 in my opinion. Uh here’s the funniest stat of the day. Jared Goff has had five different play callers in his career under under the three not named Shawn McVey and Ben Johnson. He’s 019 and one. That’s crazy. Okay. Yeah. So, so you you would have pushed Burrow there and not taken Connor. Yeah. Connor to me is like RB4 on this slate. Uh maybe higher. Like it’s CMC one then it it might be Connor. Like it it may just be Connor too. Uh Jonathan Taylor gets a bad matchup there. Looks like I get Jaylen Herz at the four. People will be scared of AJ Brown, but I will take AJ Brown. Absolutely. This is working out quite nicely. Uh now we just need a tight end. Oh, he plays I mean maybe let’s look in the depths for the tight ends. Britain Strange is probably a pretty good one. Uh we could could do that. Tyler Warren versus Denver is probably good. KD separate MRI on the hamstring. Jawan Johnson had a monstrous game, too. Trey Benson RB4. [Laughter] Hold on now. Yeah, I I think I like the uh the headless Trevor the headless Jacksonville stack. feels fine. Britain Strange got insane usage. Uh if he wants him, he could take him. Cooler should probably take Britain Strange for the bring back on his game. Like he he really should and I think I might just double stack it and call it good. Yeah, I Let’s just do the rare double stack Jaylen Herds team. Uh, so we got Jaylen Herz, CMC, Connor, Brian Thomas, AJ Brown, Dallas Gutter. I like this team. Let’s look at what Cooler’s done. He got Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase, Ted McMillan, who I think’s a really good pick here. Gibbs Taylor, like Taylor, like I’m I’m scared of him this week, but I’m not going to have a zero. And Britain Strange I think was the correct pick that another really good team by him. One more Wildcat and then I am out. We will enter in 10 seconds. and I will be ready to like do some DFS lineups. I didn’t do very good in the DFS stuff. I had one I only did five lineups. One of them cashed and men cashed. Thinking about why I never like the way Tawa looks at quarterback. Um he he looked pretty clean this week. I thought he just when he targeted when he targeted the seam like the out routes and stuff, he he tended to sail the ball. Uh and so I I don’t know. like I’m wondering if he’s just never going to really develop, but um I don’t know. I do not know why, but yeah, he something looked a little off, but I will say that that run game absolutely dominated. Coolers at the five. Say goodbye to James Connor and any fun to me. Uh, we got a I think the four hole was in the last draft at the three hole. I am not sure, but I haven’t picked back here yet. I mean, I’m not going to get CMC. I would be happy with this uh CD Brian Thomas. I do think that Trey McBride’s a target this week as well. So these are like looking at all the tight ends. I think Trey McBride, like you look at the projection, he projects for three all uh three and a half more points than anybody else. Like that’s huge. You look at CMC and he projects similarly by underdog. I’m going to assume other places will have it different. And then wide receiver, it’s kind of the guys you would expect. So, like I think I’m going to actually move McBride all the way up uh and target him for this and hopefully do a McBride Teteroa bringback. I would hope Josh Allen goes at the three. Jaylen Milro at the four. This is going to get thrown out. Um, yep. Well, this this one ain’t going to survive, but let’s have fun with it. Uh yeah, let’s uh Coolers is like, “Well, it’s getting thrown out anyway, so I won’t take Jamar Chase.” Oh, yeah. I That’s a That’s a pick. Jaylen Waddle. I I believe that was the same guy who’s in the last one. Let me look. Oh, you can’t see the You can’t see the teams, can you? You have to screenshot it. Crossing my fingers for week 17. Nick Mullins. He chucks it at least. Yeah. So, but after this I will be done. Uh tomorrow I will be back on with Steve. We will be doing game by-game breakdowns once again. We’ll go over usage a little bit, kind of discuss what we both saw in the games. Uh there’s a couple games and things that I definitely want to discuss. Uh, absolutely. And the Trevor Lawrence thing is ab is one of them. Like he’s he seemed to be on target for anything under like 15 yards and everything that like and every time he went to Brian Thomas Jr. for whatever reason, it was just off. Like I’m not even saying Josh Allen at three is a bad pick, but the Jaylen Milro, I don’t know how you get there. Like, and if you get there, how you don’t just take him at 33 every draft. Uh, so we’ll just we’ll do the fun thing. I’m Coolers knows I’m not going to take Jaylen Herz again, so he doesn’t have to worry about it. We’ll just go ahead and double stack this up. We’re just going to go Onslaught. onslaught wide receiver there. Hell, if T makes it back, we’ll take him, too. Uh, I mean, Connor is the pick. If Connor makes it, absolutely. So, I don’t mind the Tet there. I just managed to get a def decent DFS lineup for next week with Saquon Henry and CMC over on Drafters. I guess we could do Are the drafters weeklies up? Oh, you mean for the uh the daily the daily slates? I have not looked yet at next week’s DFS, so I am not sure. Sam Leaporta. Okay. DraftKings. Got it. I got huge Milo shares on Underdog. I got a bunch in Superflex for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I got I had like 15% Milo and Superflex. And that’s something I want to talk to Steve about is the Seattle offensive line. Like I started taking some more Seattle after the first few pre like when KC played their basically their whole defense and dominated us on the offensive line. Like I thought positive things, but they got destroyed against San Francisco’s front. Some people think it’s because San Francisco’s front’s really good. I’m going to lean towards what I was thinking for the last six months before preseason started and that maybe their offensive line just isn’t that good. And if their offensive line isn’t that good, then Sam Darnold is going to see some ghost. question is, do I want to take I do think that this is one of those situations where I could just take three wide receivers. I’m definitely taking Connor. Um, what else do I want? We’ll just take Connor and Cook. We’ll just We’ll just bet on James Cook who scores touchdowns every game now. So, Joe Burrow, James Connor, James Cook, the double stack, and Trey McBride. Uh, if I play Joe Burrow and a double stack like that falls to me, I might as well take it. Uh, this draft’s getting thrown out anyway, so why not? Like, I I don’t know what it takes to get thrown out, but I’m guessing that Jaylen Milro at four and Ty Johnson on the same roster is probably one that gets thrown out. Uh, and it probably should be, but anyway. So, Seattle has Darnold and Milro active. When did I like So, it depends on when it was. Uh, yeah, the TW like Calvin Austin looks really good right now. Uh, I was very I was in on Calvin Austin and Big Board. But they didn’t really use him at all during like the preseason and stuff and like they kept talking about Roman Wilson and never really mentioning Austin. Uh and all the reports were really good on Roman Wilson. But game when the game happened, Calvin Austin came back out and played like he did last year. So, uh but anyway, I’m going to head out, get ready. I’m going to start doing some daily lineups on DraftKings. Uh I usually do the the $5 single showdown and then uh like five to 10 of the 50 cent minax, but probably got to listen to some Neil Orfield. For those of you who like DFS and don’t watch uh Neil Orfield, you should. He’s shipped to Millie before. He goes through a lot of the sims. Uh, and it like I like the way that his stream works. But anyway, I will see everybody tomorrow 400 pm or 2 pm central. Peace.
