Forever Show. Start listening to us, or suffer the consequences. Do do do dinnit? Yeah? Welcome, yours by day, Rob Man Rack, my god, Rob Sat Francis practice stand ball. Ladies and gentlemen, yours welcome inside studio. This is the Fantasy BFFs. I am Frank Stanfeld. The final countdown is on. It all comes down to this, the Fantasy Football Championship Week. It is week sixteen. Here. You've got a few more things to go over. In terms of the waiver wire.

I don't know that you're streaming a quarterback at this point. You might need one in a super flex league. Some running back situations. Mike Boone is Dalvin Cook gonna play Alexander Madison? Carry on? Johnson coming back, Rashan Perriman. Are we really gonna do the Brashad Perriman thing in Week sixteen with our championships on the line. There's a lot to talk about, lots to go over from last night

as well. Greg Softon will be joining me shortly here on the Fantasy b f f's Let's start with last night. Drew Brees. Huh, Drew Brees four touchdown passes. It's funny. I actually put out a poll last week and said, if you thought that Drew Brees was going to break the touchdown record in this game, he needed three touchdowns to break the record. I said, if you thought he was gonna break the record in the game last night, and he was a top five fantasy quarterback in Week fifteen,

well you did you one better. They gave you a four passing touchdowns finishes as the QB three overall in Week fifteen, twenty nine of thirty. Just setting multiple records here. I mean, the guy is just insane, one of the best that we've seen in this generation of all time. Frankly, you know, as long as he's been with the New Orleans Saints and with Sean Payton, the guy has just

been utterly ridiculous. Michael Thomas twelve catches for a hundred and twenty eight yards and a touchdown last night on twelve targets that type of efficiency out of a wide receiver. And now, mind you, he's not a deep ball threat. He's not the Tyreek Hills of the world, the Stefon digs high yards per target type wide receivers. But this is a guy who works in the intermediate does make

some plays down the field. For him to catch all twelve of his targets for a hundred and twenty eight yards and a touchdown, it seemed like he was gonna have an even bigger game. They really kind of took their foot off the gas in the fourth quarter here for the New Orleans Saints. But Michael Thomas man just gonna be interesting to see where he goes next year in drafts. Obviously should be the wide receiver one taken off the board on pace to shatter the Marvin Harrison

record for most receptions in a single season. Michael Thomas just continuing to get it done. Taysom Hill should have listened to to Great Sussman yester day. He had Taysom Hill scoring a touchdown as one of his favorite bets going into last night. As soon as it happened, I had to text the old Greggy. And of course when I say the old Greggy, I do mean the old Greggy. I mean, what is this guy forty fifty years old?

Taysom Hill scores a touchdown? And I heard on the broadcast, of course Booger and Test Tour talking about, well, they're gonna have quite a q B battle once Drew Brees is gone between Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill. I think the jury is still kind of out on Taysom Hill as a quarterback. You know, he is that Swiss army knife where he can line up in the backfield, he can run the ball, he can catch the ball. You know,

he can make plays as a quarterback. They do some wildcat things with him, a lot of interesting packages for Taysom Hill. Is he just a legitimate quarterback? I think that still remains to be seen, at least Teddy Bridgewater. You know we've seen in his career all he does is cover. Teddy covers. You're gonna hear a wager talk coming up at three pm. But no, we're talking about the other Teddy covers Teddy Bridgewater. Teddy bridge Water only did this year was cover games, win games with the

New Orleans Saints. I was a skeptical of Bridgewater, you know, come filling in for Drew Brees here, because he hasn't necessarily put up stats. He doesn't put a big time stats as a quarterback in today's NFL. What all he does is win games. So it's gonna be interesting to see what the New Orleans Saints do believe Teddy Bridgewater is a free agent in the off season. You know, they got a plan for life after Drew Brees. You know, maybe the Saints win the Super Bowl, we see Drew

Brees again next year. That will be uh an interesting scenario heading into the off season. As I mentioned fantasy bfs here on the Sports Grade TV Network, we're gonna get into some waiver wire conversation quarterback streams, tight end streams heading into Week sixteen, defensive streams, running backs, and

wide receivers. Of course, I'm gonna away from my good buddy Greg Susan before we get into the waiver wire talking about last night's game between the Saints and the Colts wasn't really a game again, Final score thirty four to seven. Uh. Speaking of all the this, uh, this quarterback play between Drew Brees Teddy Bridge Water. What the Saints are gonna do moving forward? Jacoby Brissett eighteen of thirty four hundred and sixty five yards four point nine

yards per attempt. The Colts has had nothing. They had absolutely nothing in this game. Officially eliminated from playoff contention are the Indianapolis Colts six and eight on the season. Jacoby Brissette doesn't look like the quarterback that was playing earlier on this year. I don't know if he's still playing through an injury, whatever it might be. Marlon Mack stuck in mud last night. The Saints defense when they

play at home phenomenal. If you had to use Pascal or t Y Hilton or Jack Doil, I am sorry for you and with that, I'll look him in. Greg Susen, Greg, I hope you didn't have to start any Colts last night because none of them showed up. Jackie d had a big pass interference called at the end of the game. Do you get Fantasy points for that? When I was telling someone over the weekend, I was like, you should get past fast points for that like should you probably

not didn't catch the ball? Probably not a Drew reason though that was fun Threw Brees. I was just talking about Drew Brees. You know what really is I really I'm just so stupid sometimes. So when the Survivor player pool, right, it was there Breezes week the record Monday Night football home was a log. You knew he was putting up a monster game at least three touchdowns. But because I'm an idiot, we always take because you want people on Monday Night, you always want to give yourself a shot.

We always take the kicker from the Monday night game. We had previously used Will Lots, so we went with Chase McLaughlin. Why would do that? Because I'm an idiot? Right? But if I said that, I would get yelled at because why wouldn't I just take a kicker, like do it like I do every other position, like look at fantasy points against everything? Why would I do that? Yeah, just take a kicker. Well, you didn't do kicker inside of a dome, which makes sense. Always my thought is

kicker Monday night. It's all random anyway, So let me just do it on Monday night. Even though I knew Drew Brees would go off. I still took a kicker that did not act. I'm sorry, Greg, it's the final countdown, Greg, Week six here, let's come Championship week. Let's go. We're here, We're here, break, We'll come back or a wind chap us your week, Craig, can you help me do that?

I hope so. Let's help with you on the waiver wire to bff stick around more all the way Right after this, are you ready for the nation's first and only free, twenty four hour network dedicated to you the betting and fantasy sports enthusiast. Sports Grade will provide you with a real time content, statistics and gaming intelligence unlike

Located both in the heart of New York City and inside the FanDuel Sports book at the meadow Lands Sports Crade, he's live eighteen hours a day here to serve you the fanatic. This is Sports Grade. Get all the grid back with you, BFFs. I'm Gregg, He's Frank. How did you be here? Sorry for being a little elaked. Sorry Greig. There was a rumor in the YouTube chat that you toilet paper hanging from the side of your pants and you confirm that

I do not. I didn't see any, but if the YouTube chat says it, it must be true. It's not sureuse I'm looking around the room's toilet papers. So at least we know why you were late to the show today, Greg, I don't think I was in the bathroom. Greggy, Uh, he ates some old salad dressing for lunch today didn't sit well with him, so I had to kick off the show for Greggy had had a sand I had a sandwich. I did have a sandwich as well, so I don't know what you're referring to. I'm kind of

kind of over sandwiches at this point. Really you want to go to salads? Yeah, I don't know. I just it's it's very hard to please me, Greg. It's kind of crazy, Frank, I know the way wire thankfully, like a big waiver wire. So I feel like I have some time to you know, I think we should talk strategy as well at this point. You know, this week is our last full week of the year, our last that is correct, I'm pretty excited. Let's celebrate. Did you

notice the song coming back from break? Craig Chap all right, I had to make sure I was like, I don't know if you know this was in Greg Susman's wheelhouse, was not Dave Matthew's band Chaps here. I'm pretty sure that's not how you dance to this song, Greg, how do you dance to the song? Sim sheke doing a little souldier shake? How would you dance to the song? Honestly, I probably wouldn't dance to it. Maybe a little dice

roll dice raw. I don't even know how you dance to this song, but I'm pretty sure it's not the shoulder shimmy. Man, that's your move. I saw a lot of that at your wedding tissue, a lot of a lot of shouldering, a lot of jumping. Greg's a big jumper. I think I'm wedding's most people are jumpers. Right, She's like, you have in a big circle and you jump. What did you What did you think of the the like? Did she my parents dancing? Because my mom has a

real nice Jewish dancer which just goes like this. You notice that. I don't know that I paid enough attention to your mom to uh to see what her dancing style was. But once you get a video done, I'd love to watch it alright to remind myself, I got the pictures. I got the pictures. Maybe i'll maybe I'll see some video of myself dancing. I hope you do. I got pictures of myself a pictures on the wedding yesterday. I know you sent me a picture the other day.

I did your Blando Deblino and Blando Deblino, me and you, and it was a great pictures. Great, it was an awesome picture. Man um. All right, let's get on the way over wire and then we'll talk some strategy going into this weekend. So we we kind of alluded to it yesterday and we said the waiver wire involves Mike Boon, Rashad Perriman and then everybody else. That's not the case anymore.

The case now, in my opinion, is the waiver wire involves Breschard Perriman and then everybody else because Dalvin Cook maybe Okay, evidently who knows that's a big there's a question mark there. There isn't a question mark with Raschard Perriman.

You came on the air yesterday, Frank and you said, Hey, I want which ever one is theoretically guaranteed more points the guy that could trust more the situation that I could trust more right now, as we get to Tuesday night, when you gotta put in most of your waivers, that's clearly Richard Perriman. If you had to write the waivers, Perriman is very obviously one. Yeah, I can't argue with that, and we basically came to that conclusion yesterday as well.

Some you know rumors yesterday from Mike Zimmer that Dalvin Cook could be good on Monday Night football. Uh, they're expecting him to try and give it a go. We'll have to see what happens throughout practice this week. Same thing with Alexander Madison, right, so you know, when it comes to the Vikings and Mike Boone, you need two players to be out for him to really really return that value. You know, even if one of them is out, he'll have a role, but you know, not the same

type of role. Whereas both Madison and Dalvin Cook were out at least with Perriman, it's really looking obvious that Chris Godwin is going to miss this week with a hamstring injury. We know that Mike Evans is already out and Brasad Perriman just dominated last week. So I think if you're asking me who is the top guy, I agree with you, Greg. I think that it is Brashot Perriman, and I think he is the safest person, safest player on the waiver wire to provide fantasy points this week.

By the way, you saw what Jamie said to that, right, oh, Greggory, I tagged you in the tweet. Check your Twitter, Greg, I had to tag you in that look. He walks in and according to Greg Allman, he says, uh, O J. Howard and Cam Braid, Hey, y'all are going to get the rock. Greg, would you like to apologize? You know why? Because it's one last chance for O. J. Howard to ruin your season? No, no, no, no, one last chance. What better way for O. J. Howard to come full circle?

Poetic justice, Gregg? For O J. Howard, who was the biggest tight end bus in fantasy football this year, who have a monstrous Week sixteen and when people fantasy championships now. I can't think of a better way for him to go out without bang to end the season. I cannot wait until Wednesday or Thursday when you just say I just want to pick him up. I just want to pick him up right, I'm going down with the ship. I'm going down. Okay, after Rashod Parraman, let's get into

Mike Boon. Like we all, we agree with shot Powerman for all the reasons you mentioned. I am somebody that is likely lucky enough to own Mike Boon. It's very annoying because I now in three Minnesota Vikings running backs on my team. You should feel pretty happy about that, though, Yes, you're right. If is he next for you, he's like it clearly Mike Boon next, because now there is uncertainty

surrounding what's going on there. It depends what you need. Obviously, right need points man, you need points, you needflects, you need a wide receiver. Chris Conley is available. I might take him over Mike, even though d J Chark may play this weekend. D J Chark may play as well. So you know, those are two kind of similar situations here between Chris Connley and Mike Boone where their value is dependent on injuries ahead of them. But Chris Connley did just have a target. D D. Westbrook is not.

I think that there's a chance that Chris Connley could have value in Week sixteen going up against the Atlanta Falcons, even if DJ Chark is active for the Jacksonville Jaguars. So if you need a wide receiver, if you need points for sure, then I would pick up Chris Connley Gregg. And this is where I want to work the strategy

conversation into it. If I have a higher waiver priority, or if I have more FAB than my opponent right now and my opponent has Dalvin Cook, I am picking up Mike Boone regardless because I don't want my opponent to get Mike Boone if they are a Dalvin point owner. So at this point, not only am I looking at what can help my team, I'm looking at trying to block my opponent as well. And I feel like this fits right into everything that you do as a fantasy owner. Great,

because I know you are a cutthroat owner. You have done this in the past where you you know you you have your your yourself have picked up players to block others from getting them. So if your opponent needs a tight end, if your opponent needs a quarterback, stream, a defense, whatever it might be. If you have players on your bench that you're not going to use this week and they don't have fantasy value, because you don't want to drop someone obviously that you're that your opponent

can then pick up and use against you. But anyone that you're not gonna use, just drop that player and block your opponent from picking up players they might need. And that's where I really wanted to work in the strategy conversation as well. So I honestly agree with that anyone you're not going to use and you feel comfortable

letting your opponent use your drop them, I agree. But nothing like don't drop Odell Beckham or something, or just because you're not going to use that player doesn't mean you automatically have to drop them because if they have value, again, you don't want your opponent to get that place. So again, it's more so you're just anybody that like stinks it's on your bench you can drop basically, like, is it

time to no leave? Yeah? Greg, I think it's over for both scarbro harry On Johnson potentially back this week. He's been practicing the past two weeks. They're talking him up, he's saying that he wants to play. West Hills just scored two touchdowns last week. Greg, I think it's time to no leave in both Scarboro in regards to strategy and players to drop ad mid this my own you know,

my own matchup. We told everybody three weeks ago, Frank, now is the time you own every handcuff you can because in the case of a Mike Boone and Alexander Madison, you needed them right like it worked out. What about the players that didn't get hurt? Tony Pollard for Zekiel Elliott, um Latavia's murray for Alvin Camara, Wayne Gollman for Sae Kwon Barkley, Right is fine? Zeke's fine? Kamara seems all right? Can you not from not a hot kind of all?

Not from my production stamp now, So, knowing that those guys are okay, can you drop your handcuffs at this point? I Am not going to do it in the first wave of run because anything can happen throughout the course of the week. Someone can get hurt during practice. We've seen it over and over all. This guy pulls up lame during practice. He hurts hamstring, he hurts his foot, This guy got tackled the wrong way and practice hurts

his shoulder. Something. Anything can happen if you have a second waiver run going into Sunday and you really need a player and you or you want to block your opponent from getting a player in that second waiver run. That is the point where you can drop your handcuffs going into Sunday. But as of now, before we hit you know, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday practices, I do not want to drop my handcuffs, just in case anything can happen here. Greg, alright, so be careful with those handcuffs.

Don't get a little trigger happy like I almost was this morning. I just really I had to talk you down from the ledge here. Greg never wanted to stop believing that it's it's all over all right, Let's take a break other people to pick up what's your way next?

Shout out to Danny Oakres downstairs in the pit and the rest of the crew. You know, I had these guys play some championship themed music today as we head into week sixteen, guys, can you fire up the music again? So so Greg Susman could get pumped up here if that is possible.

There you go, Greg go, Here you go. You're gonna do anything today, Gregg, I guess I'm a city here, Go ahead ahead, man, No, seriously, it's all yours, all right, So I'll get back into the aber wire as we said we can. We got to find other people to pick up other than Mike Boone, other than Brochard Perriman. We have to go, obviously in different directions. So Freggie,

you mentioned Chris Conley, Well what about different positions? Right quarterback in particular, defense in particular, Hell freaking kicker, I don't know, right Like, we gotta find the edge, so let me go to the quarterback spot. You obviously haven't done rankings yet, but I'll just tell you the quarterbacks are out there in my league and we'll use it as a representation of all the other leagues. Josh Allen at New England, No, thank you, but you're Mr Josh Allen.

Love Josh Allen. Yeah, I don't want to do it against New England. Other way against Baltimore ten point seven in my league, sixteen point three against Pittsburgh, Yeah, Spurg. He was solid, he was adequate. But man, heading into my championship week, we just saw that Patriots defence get their confidence back their swag pick six from Stephon Gilmore. I understand it was against any Dalton, but you get that confidence back. I don't. I don't want to mess

with Josh Allen here divisional match against the Patriots. The legend of Matt Ryan Baby Jacksonville. Matt Ryan going up against Jacksonville. That might be possible inside of the dome. Obviously plays better at home. You can run all over Jacksonville, so they might have success with Devonte Freeman and Brian Hill and Quadria Allison in the spot. What else you have? He he's on the maybe list for maybe list. I'll

keep going down Phil Rivers Oakland maybe, you know. I want to like that because I liked Philip Rivers last time he went up against Oakland, and that was he went thirties, two hundred and seven yards, three interceptions, two touchdowns. I remember it well because I started him. Yeah, he had two touchdowns in that game in a four point passing touchdown league, finished with under fourteen fantasy points against Oakland. It's a good matchup. He's at home, he's been inconsistent.

He's also on the maybe what else he got? All right? I get some other guys. I'm not gonna start, okay, Derek Carr and Jared Goff. Jared Goff going up against no, I don't want to do that. I gotta do that. Kobey Brissette was quite bad last night, so normally I would want to, like you were set here against the Carolina Panthers, who have allowed at least twuttered eighty six passing yards and two touchdowns two quarterbacks in three of

their last four games. So they're allowing good production to quarterbacks. But sometimes you can't just look at the matchup. You have to look at the play of the quarterback and the team around him as well. T Y Hilton still not pass what else he got? Great? All right, let's keep going it, uh, Gardner Minshew in Atlanta. This is an interest this one, Uh, this one I feel pretty

good about last week. Minshew finished in the top twelve quarterback one passing yards and it didn't light up the scoreboard, but two touchdowns, twenty seven rushing yards, seven point dogs against the Falcons in Atlanta. I think we could get some points here. Back and forth, and the Jaguars haven't been able to run the football. Greg Leonard Fournett has only got over fifty rushing yards once in his last

six games. Kind of like Minshew, He's the one that stands out to me right now, keep going, Sure they can say no, I think the top two that makes sense right now is Matt Ryan and Gardner Minshew on that list, here's some other names. Will Greer against Indianapolis, um Andy Dalton against the Dolphins. I want to like it, but no, right f It's Patrick against the Bengals. Like that too, because again the volume is gonna be there

for Ryan Fitzpatrick. They cannot run the football. Maybe against the Bengals they can run a little bit better, but not. Bengals defense playing better as of late, but going on the road play in Miami, I kind of like Ryan Fitzpatrick. Fits Minshew and Matt Ryan are the ones that stand out as of now. All right, there you go. You don't want to do Dayne Haskins Greg Giants. I've given

that one. But all seriousnes somebody, what are my friends actually talking to me today saying why wouldn't you start Haskins against the Giants? Where does he fall on this list? He would be behind those three, but he would be ahead of will you really be will you really be? Ahead? Of Jared Golf against San Francisco. The other one you mentioned Jacoby Brissett ahead of him as well. I can't trust Jacoby Brissette and that Colts offense right now. The

way that they're playing. Wayne Askins look competent for the first time this past week. He was playing with confidence. He made plays against the Eagles in a good matchup. The Giants are a great matchup as well. Dwayne Haskins his home once again. I kind of like him in that spot in a super Flex league you need a second quarterback. I like him more than Brissette. I like him more than Jared Goff, that's sure. I like him more than Derek Carr too. I think it's like in

the middle of that crew. I agree, but are you realistically getting to him. That's out of a two quarterback. I can't play him in a one quarterback leave there has to be someone better. That's that's that's my quarterback. Would you rather use Haskins or Drew Lock because my buddy constant scene is asking in his super Flex league Drew Lock at home against the Lions. I just got torched by jamis a good one, Yeah, good one? Or

Menshore between Lock and Haskins. That's a good one. Lock at home against the Lions, Haskins at home against the Giants. I'll use Lock. Yeah, I'll use Lock. It's close. I think I like Haskins. My quarterback in case you're one ring ring is Drew Brees in Tennessee. I love it. Yeah, obviously you like it better at home in the Dome. Could be a little bit of a letdown game here after the big four touchdowns, but the way to attack the Titans defense is actually through the air. Deshaun Watson

just had a solid game against them. If it wasn't for that pick in the end zone, he would have had an even bigger game as well. You don't like that it's on the road, but we could see some points. I like Drew Brees more than anyone else that you named on that list. All right, there you go? All right? Should we go to tight ends next? At the tight end position? You mentioned O. J. Howard that you're buying back in there, Greg, Come on, man, you're really not

gonna do it. You're really not gonna do He's not available in your lead. Look, the usage for O. J. Howard last week was great. He played eight percent of the snaps. He was in on a bunch of routes last week on the on the Jamis Winston dropped backs, he played more than Cameron Braid. He led the team with eight targets. He only had four catches for forty seven yards. Actually, I'll give you the routes ran here for O. J. Howard routes on forty four Winston drop backs.

Cameron Braid had nineteen routes, so he ran nine more routes than Cameron Braid last week. And based on that quote that we got from Jamis and Greg Allman on Twitter, the Bucks beat writer, they need to tow the ball to someone. It's Perryman, It's gonna be Justin Watson, Scotty Miller's bank en up. Jamis is saying he's gonna use the tight ends. Greg. I believe him. I don't know who else is gonna throw the ball too. They can't run the ball effectively. He just threw the ball forty

two times in the game. They won by twenty one points. I think O. J. Howard is in the mix as a streaming tight end. He's in the mix with other guys like Johnny Smith and a good game this pass. Prefer Greg. I wonder o you Howard or Johnny Smith you're actually thinking about it? Huh? Think I prefer no. Way we finally got him. I don't know, you don't want to do this? No, I think I wrote jar. So the thing with Johnny Smith is he's been just

as inconsistent asay. There's a rhyme of reason Johnny Smith. The only reason he had a good game was because you're rush. But he looked great on that place. He looked like a wide receiver. Honestly, he's fast for a tight end. He's fast, He's really athletic. I would like to see the Titans continue to get him. Involve of John H. Smith this past week played fifty five of sixty eight snaps, so he was in there a ton. He ran twenty six routes on forty one Ryan Tannehill

drop back, so ran a decent number of routes. He was on the field. You know, he caught all five of his targets for sixty yards. Uh. The Saints have allowed three touchdowns to tight ends over their last six games. I believe that's true. I hope I'm not making that up because I just wrote about John new Smith last night Greg on the Waiver Wire. Yes, they have allowed three touchdowns to tight ends over their last six games,

so it's a decent matchup. I think those are the two top guys between John Hu Smith and O. J. Howard, and I would lean with O. J. Howard personally. I think there's more past volume there. You don't have to worry about a Derrick Henry getting a ton Oft What do you got, magic, Mike get a Secy? What are you gonna do now? Kasecki against Saint Saati. The Bengals have been good against tight ends, so they were learn

the eighth fews fantasy points to opposing tight ends. I'm gonna write with the matchups which are better with the other two Over second, I don't imagine Mike I like him if those guys are already on, which I highly doubt. But yeah, I do lean with John Hu Smith and UM and O J. Howard in this spot, just because the matchups have been better the Titans, you know, just a lot of the Texans, excuse me, J. Howards going

up against the Texans on Saturday. The Texans just allowed that's that big game to John Nu Smiths with the big run the five catches for sixty yards. They have allowed some tight end production this year. Micasecki. As much as I want to love the guy, this is gonna be the guy next year. This is gonna be like that Draft Darling. He's gonna be like the Mark Andrews of next year. That's gonna be Micasecki. He had eight targets last week, but the Bengals are tougher on tight ends.

I like the talent of Key, but give me Johnny Smith and give me O. J. Howard over Gaseki. Heading into Week six, scene admittedly I want to do about Jack Doyle.

This is Sports Grade. Get all the grid back with you here on the v ff S. Frank Stample, Gregg Susman great do you know what this song is. I believe I know what it is. Got it. You're the best to do in the movie, Greg, Oh, come on, I hit you with Austin Powers the other day.

I will give you a hint. This was a very popular movie in the eighties. Ladies, mid to late eighties. Your pop culture knowledge usually isn't strong, all right, So I was there. I was right on the button. Karate Kid, right, wax on, wax off. You're the best, all right. I love it. One of my favorites, Charty Kid of the song both I joked about Jack Toil heading the brake. I really don't do about that, dude. Man. Jack Doyle, Yeah, I mean I think that that's a fair question, Greg,

I mean, yeah, I know, man. I'm dealing with three of the past four games he's been held under twenty eight yards. He had the one monster game against Tennessee where he had six catches for seventy three yards and a touchdown on eleven targets. I think it's fair to

have him in this discussion. You know, again, I haven't done rankings yet and start diving in tonight, but I imagine that Jack Doyle will kind of be towards that back end of the tight end of one discussion, whereas the past couple of weeks he was, you know, very firmly a top ten, top eight option. I think he's gonna be more of the back end with some of these other streaming options, with the John hu Smith's and and O. J. Howard's and Mike Asecki's, I think it

makes sense to have Jack Doyle in that range. So if you want to go in a different direction, I don't blame you one bit. I don't know man oward my league, like I'm gonna start Gasecki or John Smith over Jack Doyle. I think it's a craft shoot. I don't know. I don't want to trust anybody in this Colt offense heading into Week sixteen, Greg, except for Marlon Mack, because they're going up against the Carolina Panthers. Anybody can run on the Carolina Panthers. I think Marlon Mack is

due for a big game. I think the Colts in general are are due for I think they're getting back home. Yeah, so they were on the road for three of their last four games. They're getting back home here against Carolina. I don't know that the offense bounces back completely here. But I think the offensive line and the running backs will in Marlon Mack tight end as well. So you're gonna you're gonna continue to write it out with Jackie D. Just don't know the option, man, You don't. You don't

have Johnny Smith available. I don't know the gen is better. I don't know either, right, I don't know. But if you wanted to make that swap, I can't blame you. Sure, I agree, but it's not like a slam dunk like I have to do it. You know that is fair? That's fair to say. UM. Also check to see if Jacob Hollister is available. Yes, six owned, but going up against the Arizona Cardinals. The first time the Seattle Seahawks played Arizona Cardinals, UM will dis lee either scored once

or twice in that game. He definitely scored at least once, and we know tight end track records against the Arizona Cardinals. Text to see if Hollister is available. If he is by far the top add at the tight end position without let's get to the defenses, Frank, a lot of different ones to choose from, UM, so I will run down a few if I may. Sure, the Jets against Pittsburgh and the Steelers against the Jets. Yeah, I think that makes sense. The thing is what the Steelers. I

think they already owned in a lot of leaders. Good. Yeah, they're good. I do like the Jets though against h confirmed Duck Hodges will start again in week sixteen. Going into last night. I liked the Colts this week going against Carolina and Will Greer. The Colts defense was very bad last night, but everyone's defense is very bad when a record is on the line. Everyone's bad in their spot. I do like the Colts were against the Panthers, Seattle

against Arizona. They've They're out there in many places. Yeah, Arizona has been prone to turning the ball over Kyler Murray specifically. I like Seattle, not as much as the first two he named. Okay, uh, what about Denver against Detroit. I like Denver's Denver's defense, you know, showing some cracks the past month or so, but against David should be able to bounce back. Here the Washington against the Giants, the Giants against Washington, I love. I love Washington here, Washington.

I love Washington here. You know, their defense is playing well, They're averaging four point eight sacks per game over their last four games, whether it's Eli or Daniel Jones. Jones. It will be Daniel Jones, he announced, but it will he holds onto the ball way too long. He's been prone to get sacked. Fumble. Uh. He can make plays, obviously, he's made some really nice throws this year in his rookie season. But he's gonna take some sacks. There will

be some turnovers. I like the way that Washington's point, although they just you know, a lot of like thirty the first time they played against Giants and they lost Daniel Jones the second start, the two interceptions and do the loan recoveries, pretty good game. How many Fantasy points that they haven't She was close to the same nine. Nine. Okay, that's okay, Yeah, that's fine, that's okay. I do like them.

I would say, out of the teams that we've mentioned so far, the Colts and the and Washington are the most most interesting to me. You go, probably, you know, I'm probably gonna do. I just saw those team in my waver wire, the Chiefs against the Bears. I have them right now, I had. I don't hate them either. I don't hate them either they're currently in my defense because I started in the snow last Weekend's never well.

This season is on the road. It's into the Texans bad defense you love to go against against Tampa Bay. He's gonna throw the interceptions like I get it. If you get a pick six out of it, he's gonna put up a lot of points. And I recognize doesn't have his weapons. I think it would Houston. You're gonna go with Houston. Very bad defense though, very bad, very very bad. But it's Jamis. He throws interceptions every game like you're Daniel Jones fumbles every game, Greg, Why do

you pick up Washington? If that's your logic then and there I'm telling you, Like the pass rush has been there for Washington the past four games. They have almost five sacks a game, Greg, between Denver, Washington, and Houston right now, Yeah, my pick out of those three would be Washington. Okay, maybe I'll do that. I'm gonna put

away with them for all of them. All right, Um, whether the events with the tight nansy done quarterbacks, let me circle back to kind of where we gan, um, and that was a wide receiver, right, we said Brashan Harriman, far away your number one. We talked yesterday about Chris Conley on the show, or any other wide receivers outside of those two that you think you could pick up and obviously start this week. Yeah, so I heard Fantasy Football Frenzy talking about this. Shout out to Jim Dave

Fantasy Task he mentioned great war. Shout out to Chris Fncher, but I was shouting out. Let me make sure it's not nice not to because Fantasy tass was the ONEHO brought up. Greig Ward. Shout out to you, Chris Mensher. Shout out to you, Chris Fetcher, the closer you kind of you, kind of mean shot George Kurtz. Shout out to George Kurtz. Shout out to everybody. I shout out to the network right, Shout out the Sports Career TV Network, Petty Covers coming up next, one off Michaels Live in Vegas,

Baby Producer. Shout out to Danny. Shout out to Alex Fizzano. Who else is down there? Anyone else? Christma Phone. Shout out to Christma Phone. Look at all the decorations in the sudio looks beautiful. Look at that It's beautiful I've been talking about this for months. Why don't we decorate for the holidays? You know, you talk about it, they don't do it. You're not wrong, and but I say we decorate. I mean, you know, this is great. I

appreciate this. There you go. You've got some honker candy canes. I can't even tell you the last time I've eaten a candy cane. I feel like they're disgusting. Now. Usually I used to like candy canes. Candy canes are all right, but I think now, being a bit older, I feel like you're probably just like full of sugar and gross. You're not wrong, right do you eat? Going to the dentist later day? So I can't have any candy canes. So there's ninety calories per candy cane. I'm not I'm

not a calorie counter. If you have can Jenny, you are my health expert on the show. There's ninety calories per candy cane, eighteen grams of sugar? Is that bad? I mean it's not good. It's candy, though. I mean, it seems like I can't really tell you if candy is good or not. He's gonna I'm gonna kick act probably up a little bit. Greg, you let me know when you want me to talk about Greg Ward. Here in Week sixteen, I can talk about Greg Warden. It was a really roundabout way to get back to Greg

Ward here. Do you want me to talk about other things? Other things to mind? No, shout out to the fantasy football frenzy. My fiancee wants to watch Washman as well. So I did say these exact words. Greg Sussman says, it's very good. It's awesome. They'll they'll really like it. Okay, you see, you see the movie. I did see the movie. I like the movie a lot. I did not see the movie outside of you know, Michael Fastponer having to be naked in every single movie. He's ever Oh he's

dr Inhattan, Yes he did. Yeah, that's funny. Greg Ward. Everybody. Greg Ward is a solid pickup in Week sixteen. Last week, going up against Washington, they had nobody else to throw the ball too, and he saw nine targets in that game, seven receptions for sixty one yards and a touchdown. Carson Wentz is not throwing the ball down the field because he he can't be there's no one to go down

the field. Greg Ward is playing in the slot. They're going up against the Cowboys this week that have struggled big time against slot receivers. Last week, Cooper Cup scored a touchdown in the slot. The week before that, Anthony Miller scored a touchdown in the slot the week before that. I believe Colby Easley at the Monster game on Thanksgiving against the Cowboys in the slot, they struggle in the slot.

Assuming Nelson Aglar is not back. Greg Ward is a solid, very solid flex option in PPR leagues this week against the Cowboys. And the other name Greg is Danny Amndola, who just had thirteen targets eight receptions for a hundred and two yards and this week going up against the Denver Broncos, tougher matchup, but David Blou not really taking chances down the field, not targeting Kenny Golladay for whatever reason. Um, they can't really get anything going on with the Detroit

Lions offense. The one person he has looked too consistently is Danny Avendola. Yay, Danny Amendola. Would you rather have Avendola greg Ward? If Nelson Agilar is out, I would go with Greg Ward. I like that match against the Cowboys slot Aglare is not out and is expected to play a decent amount. I will go with Danny Emondla because I don't know what Greg Ward's workload is. I don't know what his role will be if Nelson is back. All right, to be honest, Okay, fair enough, let's go

back to the running backs now. Okay, yes, sir, so you mentioned Mike Boon. We don't really meation anybody else. Do you know there's Miles Gaskis on this list? Why why not Greg? Because a massive increase in workload of the staff. Dominator? Who dominator? The montes sibonis, Oh, the intern praise the layered. He didn't look he didn't look

very good. Lesson, he didn't. He's the dominator. I'm just saying, if they're working themselves towards a split between the Dolphins running backs, Greg, They're going up against the Bengals next week. If Myles Gasking gets double digit touches in that game, Rex Burke has just scored a touchdown on like six carries. Tell me which situation in your Fantasy finals you really want to know you're starting, you really want to know? I will tell you right now. In my home league

keeper league. I made it to the consolation bracket finals, which I know you love, Greg. But if I win this, I get to choose my draft slot for next year. This is how we keep people involved throughout the course of the season. Running backs the second My running backs are Royce Freeman and David Johnson. No punch line, no joke, that's real life. I would start Miles on this team. Are you only in the consulation very because the other

teams aren't updating their teams anymore? No, they are. Are you in the one with nineties seven points last week? It's a consolation bracket for a reason. Greg, We're all bad teams like trained Away all my good players to get keepers for next year, and it's worked out. It did. I'm pretty pumped. I'm guaranteed at least the first or second pick. You're fine, doesn't matter, doesn't matter, You're fine.

I have Darwin Thompson's so I don't know mis gasting like you said, um, but you know in deeper league, right you start two flexes Miles gassing against the Bengals. I don't think it's crazy. I can't wait till Miles gasking go was off this week, He'll probably be like mikeae Secky and I'll have two carriage for ten yards. No like that. Um Boston Scott against Dallas here monsters game between the Eagles and the Cowboys. Yere Um. Boston Scott certainly is a backup to Miles Sanders. Would you

rather have him wear your boy, Miles Gasking? I would take Boston Scott, especially in a PPR league. He did have seven receptions this week for sixty five. He had sixty five total yards, and that included seven receptions played of the snaps. And as long as the Eagles don't have any wide receivers like I don't really see that changing anytime soon, They're gonna have to throw the ball

to their tight ends, to their running backs. We saw Boston Scott get a lot of targets in this game, Greg, We also saw Miles Sanders get a lot of targets in this game. The Cowboys also allowed the seventh most receptions to running backs this year. So if you need a flex in the PPR league, I think Boston Scott is in play in that format. I agree with Boston Scott in the PBRs in play, I prefer him to Miles. I agree, all right. Last player here with talks about

it bit yesterday. We alluded to it when we were no more, when we were no leaving, it was Carrie on Johnson. Who may play this Sunday. And if he does and you start him, he's not in RB two. He is not a must start running back. I consider top twenty four running backs must start running backs, so he wouldn't be an RB two for me. I think he would be in the flex discussion. If he is good enough to play. I think that he will see double digit touches against the Broncos, could catch some passes here,

They'll use him in the red zone. He's more of a flex play, not a mustart Crede. Where's it compared to the other two? He is ahead of the other two assuming he plays. Yes, sure, we'll be back three questions and think that's Are you ready for the nation's first and only free, twenty four hour network dedicated to you the betting and fantasy sports enthusiast.

Question number one, you have ten dollars left of fat you're trying to get Mike Boon and Richard parramin. How much do you bid on? Do you go all in? Do you separate?

How does that work? I feel like this is a very personal question I have. I have my Boon already, I have less money than that for me, and it's been on parents' lething. Do with me? Okay? I would go if you if you really need a wide receiver, I would just drop all the money on Peraman. That's what. If you need a starting wide receiver or flex this week, I would go all of it on Paraman. So you need a flex this week, you go all in on Paraman.

And obviously I would look at how much money my opponent has and that would factor in, Like if they only have a few bucks left, just go more than that. But if you didn't want to give yourself a chance of getting both, I would probably go seven three seven on periment three on book. Question number two, Well, Adam gaves me the coach in New York just next year. Yes,

very definitively so. Sorry, because the Jets are incompetent and Chris Johnson is running an organization cluely has no idea what he's doing, and he's already assured that Adam Gates will be back and I believe him. All Right, there we go. Our final question today. It's question number three, Frank, do you believe the Giants will beat the Redskins on Someday? So I believe the Giants will beat the Redskins on Sunday. What's the spread in that game as now, Craig, we

have that yet? Sure, sure we do. I can find it a moment. Will the Giants beat the Red Love Dwayne Askins. Yeah, I mean I'm gonna remain consistent. Um, there's definitely a chance to Giants beat them. Like, I don't think that this is a like slam dunk. Washington wins for sure. The team is a two and a half point home favorite. Yeah, give me Washington's money line. I mean, I could see it coming down to the end of that game. Washington and half. Let's go Chase

for Chase, baby Chase for Chase. Who wants to lose more? That's right, I'm pointing for those wants to lose in the Fantasy football finals. This guy could have next wait your talk take cover?
