Listen Dodd didn Yeah, welcome your Friday from five, Die Fro, Sat Francis, Franky stand ball ladies and gentlemen, your PF with that, we welcome you inside of Studio thirty four. This is the BFFs. He's Frank standfell I am Greg. What's telling a month? Greg Susman. Happy Friday to you, Bud. Fun game last night, unless, of course, you were at forty nine bettors like this guy. That did not work out.
But it was a fun game all around. We had Kenyan Drake and Emmanuel Sanders in the lineup. They shout buy you, shout out to me, shout out to you. We don't do that. We don't do that often. You overruled us. It was great. So basically it worked out on the team we all own together, Frank Mike Flora like, off, we have Kenyan Drake, we have Damarius Thomas, and we have Lashawn McCoy. We had to decide on a flex and it did not look good for Kenyan Drake going
up against that vaunted forty Niners defense. So I voted for Lashawn McCoy. It's a very good vote. Mike voted for Damarius Thomas. Frank voted for Kenyan Drake and controlled the lineup and started Kenyan Drake and I had no idea if we had him in until after the first play in the game. I was like six yards or whatever, and we just write Drake and that bart as soon as I saw I literally didn't like look at my text.
I just looked at the app to see if Kenyan Drake was in the lineup, and he was let's go, BFF. It's nice job, Greig. How are you doing? Though? Um? I did want to bring up something about your wardrobe today. An unnamed producer downstairs said that you look like you're going to a slumber party. That's rude. Was it. I'm gonna fire that one. I'm off the air. I can't tell you that to a slumber. I'm somebody who works
in anonymity. Huh, So I'm just I'll just sort out parting. Yeah, I think it's the you know, those Henley type shirts are ones that like come with the dual set of pajamas, like you have like the matching pants, like the plaid pajama pants, and you have you have like the button up shirts. My thought, we're gonna sleep. I got the hen Lea. You got the bacon neck crew neck underneath, so I had like the Henley which I you know Friday, it's colored shirt, so like not really coldly, Man, you're good.
You're the only person that was on air today to not be wearing a sports jacket. How do you feel? Great? Great bard Gage, Sean wasn't wearing sports jacket. He hasn't been on Oh well yeah he was on the morning. I have to well, you know, you're you're the only host on the network so far today until at the window of course. Man, I got my own personality stress down Friday for Greg's suster afterwards, different sweater, like you know, what are you going to sleep. Whose friend's house is it?
F Jeff manle my own apartment. Dude getting married? Like eight days you're gonna see Jeff Jeff there? How does that feel? Jeff will be there. I am very excited for your wedding. I'm probably I might be more excited for your wedding. I agree, you know, I'm very excited to a hang out with Nando. Be be hounded by all of your friends and see watch you try and step on a class. Absolutely to be great. It's gonna
be great. Uh. Last night, Um, as we said, Kenny and Drake Emmanuel Sanders got the job done for a roll of teams. That's good. The bad Kevin Coleman very bad. That whole thing that we said yesterday about taking the over in his total yardage prop von if we could just kind of delete that from existence, from the Internet, from audio boom wherever, like, just delete that because it never happened. Of course, what am I even talking about? That?
Brita was very good, fifteen carries for seventy eight yards. This was frustrating. I still think most weeks Kevin Coleman is going to be the guy Greg and he played more snaps and he still saw, you know, sixteen running back opportun nities. He was targeted four times in the past game met Brita only targeted twice. So look, these things are gonna happen whenever there's a running back by committee.
But it's still a really good team with a really good offensive line and they want to run the football. I think last night was an outlier game. It was a really good matchup. And you know what, I give credit to Kyle Shanahan because you should change up your game plan, your offensive game plan based on the deficiencies of the team that you're playing. Now, I'm sure that they could have run the football more against the Cardinals
and it probably would have worked out. But going into this game, Kyle Shanahan likely knew that the Cardinals are very weak against the past and that's exactly what he did. And we saw a career day out of Gucci Garoppolo greg four touchdowns over three hundred yards. Yesterday on the show, we were debating Jimmy Garoppolo or Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray ended up having a pretty good game as well, saved by not the bell but by Andy is a Bellah see what I did there? But Jimmy Garoppolo. I ended
up going with him in my super flex lineup. I benched Kyler Murray, I have Minshew in there. I feel pretty good about it. Greig, Absolutely you should feel good about that was a great decision, Frank, I was proud of you. Manuel Sanders awesome game as well. Man. This guy just continues to defy all sports medicine logic. Again.
I understand he's getting further and further removed, but at age thirty one, thirty two, whatever he is to be playing at this level coming off a torn achilles greg it truly is commendable and it looks like we might have a legit, high end wide receiver three on our hands moving forward for Emmanuel Sanders, how about this, I'll throw it out there for you. Obviously, this was a great matchup. Do you try and sell Emmanuel Sanders considering he has scored in back to back games. I would absolutely.
The Services before nine is unlike last night. They don't really throw the ball. It's not their game and they want to run the football. There's another game coming up against the Cardinal soon, I believe me so. In my in a pool, that idea of the Survivor player pool. So I saved that George Kittle and Jimmy g for the next one, the one at home in two weeks. Last night I used Tevin Coleman hopefully kills healthy enough
to play. Know what's gonna happen, Frank, Tevin Colan's gonna have four touchdowns in two weeks, and Kiddo and Jimmy, you gonna do nothing. That's a lot. You can't get it right. But you know, I'm looking at the matchup coming up for Sanders yes Seattle next week. While it says that you know the fantasy numbers show that the Seahawks are tough against opposing wide receivers, I don't think that they're a very good defense. And I think that
you can actually pass on Seattle. We'll get to that a little bit later on Arizona coming up, Green Bay Baltimore secondary getting healthy for Baltimore. It's not really a tough matchup. Again, it's sell high. If you can sell Emmanuel Sanders for a wide receiver too that you can trust every week. Sure, but if you don't get fair value, then just keep them in right it out. I think the matchup is pretty good. I agree with you, okay.
On the other side over the break, we had a lot to talk about because there's a lot of players returning from injuries, and there's some players that well are now injured. So we're gonna get to t Y Hilton and the Colts. What are we re turning? They talked a little bit about that when you filled it on the Frenzy too. They added to the Sewan Jackson they looked to be coming back here this weekend. So we'll
breakdown all of that. What you do, who you start, who you sit, trying to answer every one of those questions over the next hour or so. It's Frank Stafford, Greg Saucerman, You're a Fantasy best friends forever here on the grid. Get on it. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire.

All right, well, well, well, welcome back to the Fantasy VFS live on the Sports Grant TV Network. Frank Stamfill joined by Frank Susman shamming out
here on a Friday. Frank, you showing off some of those dance let's go pre wedding eight days away? Are you going to lift the chair next week? About that? And my lots lift the chair? Lift the chair? Sure man? Oh my god, alright, I feel so honored now. Believe me, most of my friends go to the bar so they don't have to lift the chair. Story Greg, I have never been to a Jewish wedding, and I am so pumped because I've heard they are crazy. They are really
like the ord the Docks Jews, like they're really crazy. Sorry, how much tequila will be at your wedding? Too much tequila? All right? Let me let's break it down, Franklin, Let's get right into it. I want to start with Indianapolis. They played Pittsburgh this week and the spread I leave Indie was a one point favorite last night check. And I don't know how this has changed now that t
hy Hilton has been ruled out. Hilton is out for the next three to four weeks, according to head coach Frank Reich, with a calf injury among the Hilton can do a lot of damage to the Colts. And for fantasy owners, what do you do if you're at t Y Hilton owner. I think the first thing you could do is look to pick up Zach Pascal. But as we talked about on the Fantasy Football Frenzy, this is a wide receiver by committee type of position when it
comes to the Indianapolis Colts. Before the San Francisco forty Niners acquired Emmanuel Sanders, they were running a similar system where they had three, four, even five wide receivers that they would rotate in or out. And I think that that's what we're going to see with the Indianapolis Colts as they try and fill the shoes of t Y Hilton again. Josh Gordon is on waivers and can sign with a team at four pm today, so pay attention to his name. It'll be interesting to see if he
lands with the Indianapolis Colts. I definitely would have some interest in that, But for me, Greg the next man up is Zach Pascal. He played the snatch last week, did absolutely nothing with those snaps, but at least he was on the field, and we have seen at times this year he does have a good rapport with Jacobe bur Set. I don't really like him in this matchup without t Hy Hilton because the Pittsburgh Steelers secondary has played really really well since mca fitzpatrick has joined the team.
Absolutely think Fitzpatrick and the Steelers secondary has been really really good since join since mckefits patrick joined the team. Like you said, z I, fescal is probably the guy. I I agree with you, but against micafitz Patrick in the secondary, I probably don't throw him out there unless I have to. To me, you look at the tight ends. We're still winning. Word on Eric Ebron, who I know didn't practice yesterday. We'll see if you're turning to practice today.
I haven't seen anything on it um, but both Eric Iron Jack Doyle. They're in play this week against Pittsburgh a tembens that has allowed production of the tight ends, and we were just talking about the Colts tight ends yesterday in our leftover segment. It's a good matchup. As you mentioned, Greg Steelers allowing the eighth most fantasy points to opposing tight ends so far this season, and if Eric Ebron is out, Jack Doyle could be in play for a mon Ster monster game. I think this is
more of a low scoring affair, grinded out game. I think we see a lot of Marlon Mack. I think we see a lot of the tight ends here, Jack Doyle. If Ebron is active, he'll be involved as well. Maybe a little bit of a Zach Pascal sprinkled in there, But ultimately I think it's a lot on Marlon Mack and the tight ends. Maybe maybe I'll just throw this out there. Niheim Heinz starts to get a little bit more involved as well. That makes sense. Zack Fascal is
going to the number one guy outside. You mentioned ninety over ninety percent of the snaps last week, the Big Game two weeks ago. Maybe you'll see Chester Roger score touchdown that usually happens with. I think Paris Campbell has upside two where he has been banged up all season as well. He is a rookie wide receiver, so we've seen some inconsistencies out of him. I was a Dion
Kane guy. He was given some opportunity early on the season, but again, just not getting the opportunities now and when he got the chance earlier in the year, he really didn't make the most of it. Is that on him? Maybe it was he wasn't just being targeted enough. But you know what they say, Normally, if you're getting targeted, it's because you're open. So if you're not, then maybe you're struggling against the opposing defense. So we'll see what happens.
But again, I think a lot of mac a lot of tight ends and look to pick up Zack Pescal All right, let me move on to let me go to the good side, right bad and then good the good Davante Adams looks to be returning. Well, actually, I'm sorry, let me stay in this game. Because James Conner also didn't practice today for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I don't I haven't seen a listing on him yet, but he did not practice on the third consecutive day. I gotta imagine
it's Jalen Samuel's time. That's what it looks like normally, you know, if a player is not practiced all week long going into Friday as well. I know that James Conner said that he would like to play and expected to play this week. Even Virginia said that James Conner should be able to play in this game, but ultimately, if he doesn't practice, it looks more and more like Jaylen Samuel's is going to be the guy. So as of now, I have James Conner ranked is my RB thirteen.
If he's out Jalen Samuels maybe not to that level, but would still be a really really good option. A top fifteen, top twenty running back. He is a legitimate RB two and the way to attack the Colts defense is on the ground. They allowed four point four yards per carry to opposing running backs so far this season. Great for me. Juju Smith Schuster, we saw him have the monster game last week. I think he's a low
end wide receiver too. I'm not really worried about this Colts defense, more so worried about the efficiency of Mason Rudolph and to me, Deontay Johnson. In the games that Mason Rudolf has started and finished, Deontay Johnson has scored three touchdowns in those five games, so I am excited about him. I think that he's a solid wide receiver. Three play all right, fair enough? Da Johnson a sleeper for you this weekend. Let's move on to the good.
Like I tried to do a moment ago, that's in Green Bay where Jamonte Adams is practice yet again today. It looks like he's going to be trying to give this one a go on Sunday, which is great news for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Backers, bad news for you if you own any other wide receiver on the Backers. On the other side, the Los Angeles Chargers Keenan Allen has practiced. He looks ready to rock this weekend as well. But the new offensive coordinator in Los Angeles,
what do we expect. I'll start off with the Packers side of things and Davanta Adams. Look, we need you back, buddy, because it has been tough sledding without you, especially in those deeper leagues. You know, I have Davanta Adams on a few teams and he was my first round pick. I was very bullish, and you know he's likely going to see Casey Hayward in this matchup. Casey Hayward still a very good player. Is he as good as he
once was? I'm not so sure. So if Davanta Adams is active, you're getting him back in your lineup, and you can't really trust any of the other Packers wide receivers. Greg we were saying that without Davante Adams active, and now with him back, I think it's a lot of him. It's a lot of the running backs as we've seen so far. And you know, we're gonna see maybe three to four targets to Jimmy Graham, a few deep shots per game to MVS, you know, three to four targets
to Geronimo Allison. But nobody is going to demand targets like Davanta Adams and Aaron Jones are going to. Last week, we just saw David Montgomery had breakout monster game against this Los Angeles Chargers defense, which means like Aaron Jones in this spot. Yeah, twenty touches last week, monster game against the Kansas City Chiefs. I have them inside my top twelve. So we're excited about Aaron Jones. And if you're desperate, there's four teams on a buy. I think
Jamal Williams is a high in flex. I have him as my RB twenty six, that in that range, so I think he's a high n RB three. He is a good flex option. On the other side, Greg Philip Rivers has been consistent. It's gonna be interesting to see what they do with the new play color in with the Los Angeles Chargers, they probably lean on the run a little bit more, but if they fall down, fall behind against this Green Bay Packers team, very good offense for the Green Bay Packers and they're gonna have to
throw the ball. Obviously, Philip Rivers solid quarterback. He's my QB thirteen. He's been consistent. He's not gonna wow you, but you know, to fifty to two, seventy five and two touchdowns, it seems like a pretty safe floor for Philip Rivers. Greg. This is a really good matchup for the Chargers running backs as well, since they have returned Eckler of the snaps Melvin Gordon five three percent of the snaps during that span, eleven carries per game for Gordon,
four targets per game for Gordon. Eckler just four carries per game during that span, seven point eight targets. Obviously, that's helped out by that monster sixteen target performance. But Green Bay allows the ninth uh the seventh most fantasy points to opposing running backs. They allowed four point nine four yards per carry, the most in the NFL, So I'm back in. I like Melvin Gordon as a solid RV two and I like Austin Ekeler as more of a low nd RB two. I think in PPR you're
getting him in your lineup. When they asked a couple of questions based on the players he's talked about already, Frank, when it comes to Austin Ekeler, would you rather start Austin Ekeler or Jalen Samuels if he starts, If Jalen Samuels is active without James Connor, definitely, Janleen Samuel. Would you rather start Austin Ekeler or Jamal Williams. I will go with Austin Ekeler. I think both are good matchups,
but I trust Austin Ekeler to be more involved. In the past game, you know, Jamal Williams has scored touchdown, but it hasn't come up with a lot of yardage, so they have been flukey touchdowns where he just randomly gets pulled into a play in the red zone and ends up scoring a touchdown. I think Alson Ekelor is actually a little bit safer Okay, we are going to take a break. When we come back on the other side,
I want to get into Philadelphia and Chicago. A lot of people are really high on Jordan Howard this week in the revenge game for Philadelphia. They expect to get to Shawn Jackson back in this offense on Chicago middle Robinski maybe on his last legs. And I had somebody asked me last night, Hey, can I start Anthony Miller this week? It's gets Philadelphia's brutal secondary and I'm like, what am I missing something? So he has had at
least fifty receiving yards in three straight craps. He tells me about the targets and like, what am I missing here when it goes to Anthony Miller? So I tope me Frank can help me out with that. A whole lot more to come. This is the BFFs here on Sports Grid. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire.

about James Conner a few moments ago. Practice report is out. Frank, he's listened as doubtful for this Sunday. Fire up the Jaylen Samuels fire him up. Indeed, as they going to the break that a lot of people, including yourself, really like Jordan Howard this week. Why is that and where
does he fall on your rankings? Yeah? So in games that the Eagles have won so far this year, and they are projected to win this one, they are five point favorites as of now, Jordan Howard averaging sixteen point eight Fantasy points per game, whereas in losses the averages a six point one Fantasy points per game. Miles Sanders is going to play, he was banged up earlier in the week. Chicago normally a vaunted run defense without a Cheam Hicks, the past couple of weeks, they are not
the same. We have to start to get that through our skulls. Chicago has allowed eight total touchdowns of running backs over their last four games. Jordan Howard has eight rushes inside of the five yard line this season. That is tied for the third most in the NFL. Chicago also allows the third most receptions for a game to opposing running backs. Greig so Miles Sanders might even be in play here as a PPR flex, but given the fact that the Bears are giving up so much production
to running backs, they're giving up a lot of touchdowns. Recently, Greg Jordan Howard excels in games where the Eagles are playing with the lead. I expect that in this game as well. The revenge factor as well. I have him inside my top twenty at the running back position. Jim Day has Jordan Howard at RB fourteen. Wow, that's really really high. Yeah, we're in on Jordan Howard this week. Big spot here for Jordan Howard this week. Play. He's she certainly versus Chicago. That makes that makes a lot
of sense um as well. Do you want to hit on Anthony Miller Anthony Miller, Well, look, if you're desperate, there are four teams on a BI I understand why people are thinking about it because I actually saw that he has been pretty consistent recently and it's a good matchup. The Eagles secondary is getting healthier, so we have to remember a lot of that production production that they gave up was while guys were banged up. Ronald Darby wasn't in the lineup. They were without Mills as well, so
keep that in mind. Their secondary is getting healthier. Anthony Miller at least fifty two receiving yards in three straight games, only three targets last week, but did have nine and seven the two weeks before that. I am slightly intrigued. If you play in a deeper league and you can pick him up and stash him, I'm more interested in doing that. I don't know that I throw him in my line up this week, Craig. Fair enough. Let me continue to want to get back earlier in the day.
It's in London, Frank, the first game of the day between the Houston Texans and the Jacksonville Jaguars. In this one, you were just talking to me during the break. Do we start Kenny Stills after last week's disaster of an outing? Can we go back to him? You've been all over Chris Conneye this week. Now some other possibilities have opened up with a Zach Pascal, for instance, what do we do in both of these instances in Jacksonville and in Houston. So I'll start off with the Houston Texans um the
wide receiver, specifically, you're starting DeAndre Hopkins. There's nothing to see there, Kenny Stills. He played the same amount of snaps, ran the same amount of routes as DeAndre Hopkins. So he was on the field last week. But you have to know this is who Kenny Stills is He's a lot like Will Fuller. He has that breakout potential on a weekly basis, but he also has a very low floor and according to Pro Football Focus, he's actually gonna see the tougher matchups. A J. Boyer does not shadow
opposing wide receivers. He plays his side of the field, and according to Pro Football Focus, a J. Boyer plays on the same side of the field as Kenny Stills. So I'm looking at this as a tougher matchup for him this week, Greg, And if you don't plan to play him, you can probably drop Kenny Stills for someone else who has more upside because they do have to buy in Week ten. On the other side the wide receiver position, I like DJ Chark a lot going up
against this Texans secondary. There. They are allowing the third most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers so far this season. I think d J. Chark is gonna have some success. D D. Westbrook is questionable. Looks like he is leaning towards playing. I'm not trying away from Chris Conley. I think that D D. Westbrook is gonna be limited. I think there's a chance he might even leave this game
once again. He left the game last week. I think you have to bump Chris Conley down the rankings a little bit, Greg, But it's still a really, really good matchup. Even if he doesn't see the seven eight targets that we were hoping for. If he's if he sees five or six against this defense, the way that he has been targeted recently the air yards over the past two weeks, I think that he could break off a big play. I'm still starting Chris Conley. I'm also still starting Kenny Stills. Man.
Like we talked about this last week that our our process in our heads, it was kind of right, although it didn't happen. And I think when you picked him up, this was the opportunity wanted me, wanted him for these two games. I like him in this spot against Jacksonville. I like him more than Jay Johnson. We were just talking about, right, like, more than Chris Conley. Did you start Conley or Stills and start Kenny Stills? Probably? I think he's a better chance of a big play. Both
are the big playing guys. I think Henny Stills a better chance of big play because I trust the Shawn Watson more than just Gardner Minshew. Yeah, the Jaguars secondary is not nearly as good as it was when they had Jalen Ramsey, obviously, but I'm still kind of worried. Me personally, I would go with Chris Conley. I think high doesn't play as a high ind flex option. He's a lot like Jordan Howard. The games that they have won,
he's average eleven Fantasy points per game. In the games they lose, the averages under seven fantasy points per game. So you know, back in Week two when they faced the Jaguars, he went for twenty rushing twenty rushing attempts for ninety yards. I think he's a high inflex Duke Johnson, nothing more than a ppr biweek replacement. Obviously, you're using Leonard for Nette and Darren Fells, Greg, I really like Darren Fells. The Jaguars just allowed two touchdowns to Ryan Griffin,
and Darren Fellows just scored two touchdowns himself. I don't know that he's gonna do that again, but he is inside inside my top ten. I like him a lot. Gardner Minshew spoke a lot about him on the Fantasy Football Frenzy. He has a top ten quarterback for me. This week Dayne hask Is making his NFL debut as a starter in Buffalo actually had like a fart in Buffalo. Uh this week's hand on Josh Allen and the Bill's
tough spot. Good defense in Buffalo, fantasy wise haven't been as good as you hope they would be, but Buffalo going against Washington. Love love love the Bills defense as a stream this week if they are available. Loved them for DFS as LL You gotta get away from Terry McLarin in the spot. We saw his production completely fall off the map in the second half of that game
last week when Dwayne Haskins came in. I understand Haskins has been practicing with the first team, so he should be more prepared, but it's still a very tough secondary. The Bills are six in past defense. Dv Away, I like Adrian Peterson. Greg I keep going back to the
well with these old running backs. I don't know why, but AP has seen the workload since Bill Callahan has taken over nineteen carries per game, and the Bills just allowed a big game to Jordan Howard, big game to Miles Sanders there twenty eight and run defense div Away I like Adrian Peterson has a high end flakes option greg this week. On the other side, Josh Allen. He's
not the upside play that we thought he was. He's not rushing for as many yards as he was last year, but he has been a safe play, which I didn't really think that we would say about Josh Allen this week. But he's giving you modest rushing production. He's not throwing for a ton of yards, but he's given you one, maybe two touchdowns per game. While did secondary is not a good one. I like Josh Allen. He's a fine quarterback. He's inside my top twelve. I think he's a pretty
safe option this week. Francore and Devin Singletary again, pretty good matchup. We just saw what Dalvin Cook and Alexander Madison did against this Washington defense. They're not a good defense all around. So personally, I like Frank Gore a little bit more than Devin Singletary. I know Singletary got the snaps last week, but they were playing from behind. I think they go back to Francore this week. I like Francore a little bit more, but both are flex
options for me. Both flex options at the running back spot. For Buffalo. With Washington, the biggest thing I want to mention there is guys coming back. There is guys this week. But talked about him during practice, frank he's on his way back, which obviously a good thing, of course for the Washington football team. Frankly hit on one last game quickly on they get a quick one um before we hit our next break. And that's with Carolina and Tennessee.
The news coming out for Carolina is Cam Newton's not come back anytime soon. He saw a second foot specialist in Wisconsin and surgery seems likely, which we came about six to nine months. Rehab has not worked for him. On the other side with Tennant, was are you saying, Carolina, Curtis Samuel is questionable? According to Ron Rivera, it's more like probable. But he isn't practiced all week. How's he probable? I think he practiced, didn't I think he didn't practice
Wednesday practice something that he didn't practice. We hold on, didn't practice Wednesday, practice Thursday, didn't practice Friday. I think. Nevertheless, Ron Rivera has said he's more like probable than questionable, not guarantee, but there's definitely question marks. Surrounding Curtis Samuel. On the other side, Ryan Tannehill makes another start to Lenny Walker will not play for the Tennessee Titans, leaving John new Smith to get another start for Tennessee. Heads
were chaking down. Yeah, I don't really love this game for fantasy just all around. It's a low total forty one. I mean, the Carolina Panthers are a four point favorite. I mean that spread might have changed, but three and a half point favorite for the Carolina Panthers. I just don't expect a lot on either side here. Obviously, using
Christian McCaffrey, it's a good matchup for Greg Olsen. The Titans have allowed four touchdowns to tight ends so far this season, but Greg Olsen has had thirteen yards or less in three of his last four games, so it's hard to trust any of these tight ends that we talk about that are lower end streaming tight ends. Me personally,
I would go with Darren Fells over Greg Olsen. But once we get into that mix with the Ryan Griffins of the world, the Jack Doyle's I like Doyle more than I like um more than I like Greg Olsen as well. In this spot, Greg, but I do like. I like DJ Moore, I like DJ More just because Kurs look, they say he's probably I don't think that he's on healthy. I'm not that scared off by the
Tennessee Titans secondary as well, their twentieth this season. In past defense TV away, So to me, d J. Moore a high end wide receiver three, I would kind of steer away from Curtis Samuel. I just don't think that he's one healthy. Very big game coming for Derrick Henry greg I love him for doing a lot this week as well. He's had at least fifteen carries in every game this season. Carolina has allowed eight total touchdowns to running backs over their last three games. We just saw
what Tevin Coleman did last week. Very excited about Derrick Henry in the spot, and I want to get away from the Titans wide receivers. It's just is it gonna be Corey Davis? Is it gonna be a J? Brown shast? Defense for Caroline has actually been good their third and past defense v away once again. If you need a streaming tight end, doesn't look like Delaney Walker is gonna play. John who Smith played last week, led the team in targets, receptions,
receiving yards and scored a touchdown. So he's right in that mix. He's in that mix with the Doyle, the Darren Fells, the Greg Olsen, that back end, top twelve tight end this week, top tight end that this week, Jack Doyle, John H. Smith, but not Chris Herndon. He's un likely to play for the New York Jets. We'll talk with the Jets and the Dolphins. Patrick Mahomes not so much against the Vikings, Vikings and Chiefs hold.

The Stashes coming out tonight and tomorrow night. My family their annual Halloween party. Still celebrating Halloween, will just snash be out on Monday. I haven't decided you what do you think? Should I keep it around? No? Why? I don't want that on my wedding. We can't have this. Oh well,
if you don't like it, it's day coming. I knew that was coming, all right, I said before the break. The Jets not expected to get Chris Herndon back quite yet, as the waiting for Herndon continues. Jets facing the Dolphins. If you watch the FanDuel hurry up games in the fresh No really, Oh yeah, my god, he did it for you. He called you out as if things couldn't get for my New York kids. Honestly, I might be room for the Dolphins too. Just hey, if they win
this game. If the Dolphins cannot, how how do you bring back Adam Gates if they lose this game? So I'm hoping that that's the same reaction that they have. The Squeaky Wheel gets the oil. Levian Bell all week talking about how he wants to be used more this week heading into this matchup against Miami, and I really hope he does because it is a great matchup. They allow the most fantasy points to opposing running backs. We just saw James Connor have a monster game. Love Levian
Bell on fandal DFS this week seven thousand dollars. Sam Donald, I think is a streaming quarterback, not to the level of Derek Carr and Gardner Minshew. He is my quarterback sixteen on the week, but again should be able to have some success. Miami Dolphins have allowed multiple touchdowns in every game but one, even against Mason Rudolph last week, which means if we like Sam Donald, greg, we have
to like the weapons for the Jets. I think it's a good bounceback spot for both Robbie Anderson and Jamison Crowder. They're both inside my top thirty six their wide receiver threes like Robbie Anderson a little bit more. We've seen the Dolphins give up some big plays and we know that that's what Abby Anderson excels at. If you are desperate for a tight end and you cannot pick up Fells and you cannot pick up Jack Doyle. I think that Ryan Griffin isn't play. Miami Dolphins defense is very bad.
Chris Herndon is not playing. Ryan Griffin just scored two touchdowns as well, so I think I think he is in play as a streaming tight end. On the other side, look, I don't know how much defense is gonna be in this game. The total is like super low because the teams are bad, but they're very bad on defense. So if it's magic, if you're desperate in the super Flex League, I think he's in play. Mark Walton seven percent of the snaps last week. The Jets give up a ton
of touchdowns, they give up a ton of receptions. I like Mark Walton has a high inflex option this week, DeVante Parker and Preston Williams greg start everybody in this game. Basically, the defenses are very bad. Defenses are bad, These teams are bad. These coaches at the's one of them very bad. Sorry, Frank. The Kids Cheese are hosting the Minnesota Vikings. We don't expect Patrick Mahomes play in this one, although next week
certainly seems like a possibility. Nate Taylor just tweeted out as I was going through this matt Patrick Mahomes is questionable for Sundaye's injury report. I will come out later today, but he I guess they're gonna call him questionable. I don't expect him to play, but I can't see him being like the active backup. I guess great. That helps nobody exactly nobody. I hope that Patrick Mahomes place doesn't affect anything right though, because you're obviously gonna start Tyree Hill,
You're obviously din start Travis Kelsey running backs. You're gonna handle separately the Patrick Mahomes and you don't feel good about the running backs here in this spot regardless. The Vikings are tenth in the NFL in run defense dv A way, they've been very stingy. They allow the fifth fewest fantasy points. You don't know if it's gonna be McCoy because the last time we saw McCoy he was holding the ball out like a loaf of bread, like
he always does. He fumbles the football. Damian Williams comes in and ends up scoring your touchdown this week. So how do you trust any of the Chiefs running backs given that it's a committee. They can't run, block, and it's a tough match up against Minnesota, I would stay away from all those guys. Like you said, Greg, you're using entire re kill, you're using Travis Kelsey obviously. Sammy Watkins is first game back played scent of the snap.
He had eight targets that accounted for of the targets share. The Vikings secondary not very good. I'm actually kind of in on Sammy Watkins this week, Greg, and I feel like nobody is talking about him. Whether Matt Moore is the quarterback he targeted Sammy Watkins all those times last week, the eight targets, and if not, Patrick Mahomes is back, and you gotta feel good about this pass game regardless.
So I think, you know, if you're kind of desperate for a wide receiver and you've been looking for a reason to start Sammy Watkins, I feel pretty good about him against this against the Vikings this week. That secondary is not what it once was, certainly not. The roads have been open for most of this season. Trey Wayne is actually played better, uh than Java Rose. It feels like he might be better than Xavier Rose at this point. Yeah,
at least this season for Minnesota. The expected to get Adam feeling back, which is good at Kansas cy Secondary actually looked better than you'd think with the with the UM Minnesota Vikings guys, he started, how you always would pretty much you do. But the problem is, we really haven't seen a game this year, Greg. We're both Feeling
and Diggs have gone off. And the Chiefs, to their credit, their past defense has played really well this year, their fourth and past defense d v o A, and they're not allowing a ton of fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks or wide receivers. So I think you're still using Feeling and Diggs if you are not. Adam Feeling ruled out for Sunday. All right, fire up the Stefan. Since I said he was the hottest commodity in fantasy football, that's exactly what he's been. Maybe not, but still we're firing
up Stefon Diggs. Forget about everything I just said, but not really. It is a tougher matchup. They're playing good against wide receivers in the past games, but the targets are gonna be there for Stefon Diggs. They have been. He's gone for at least a hundred and forty yards in three straight games. He's you know, I had some really big games. He had the three touchdown game against the Eagles. If you own Stefen Diggs, I think you are throwing him out there, and maybe if you're really desperate,
BC john pon. But I think that there are a lot of other options this week that we've talked about that might be available, from the Chris conn Lee's to the Zach Pascal's. I don't think that you have to do the BC Johnson thing. And obviously, Greg, we loved Alvin Cook for DFS. We do talk you have to play Vin Cook in DFS this week. Latest news Adam Steelan out this week for the Minnesota Vikings. Let's continue on Frank, let me get to I'm not I'm gonna
skip over to Troy in Oakland. See we get we thought a lot about that yesterday, so we have time. We'll come back. I want to make sure everybody in that game, it's all you need to know. I want to hit on Seattle and Tampa Bay. Russell Wilson and the Seahawks taking on Tampa Bay Buccaneers team once again without O. J. Howard in the lineup. He has been ruled out. Cameron Bray, We're still a waiting. We'red on we haven't seen that one yet. Um, but it's Seahawks
in the box. Yeah. O J. Howard has already been ruled out. We gotta see what happens here with Cameron. Brad was talking about this with the Fellas over on the Fantasy Football Frenzy. The Seahawks have allowed the fourth most fantasy points to opposing tight end, So I understand it feels like we're kind of getting sucked back into the can break trap. But he had six targets last week and one of those was in the end zone.
The process was there. I think that in a game with a total of this high grade of fifty two points total, one of the highest on the week, that if you're desperate for a tight end again, like we keep saying that the tight end position is terrible, because it is, but every single week, the process is there for a few tight end streams, and I think it's there once again for Cameron Braid, for Jack Doyle, for Ryan Griffin, for Darren Fells, for a few of those
tight ends. So I'm going back to the well. It'll be interesting to see what happens between Chris Godwin and Evans I don't think that the Seahawks secondary is very good. They just allowed matt Shop mat Shop to tour for over four hundred yards last week. So yes, Jamis Winston is inside my top twelve at the quarterback position. With a total this high, I think we see some back and forth. I think this is a big Russell Wilson
blow up week. We've seen that in games. How about this great first step In games decided by six points or less, Russell Wilson is averaging twenty nine point in three fantasy points per game. In blowouts this season where he is won by seven points or more, he is averaging fifteen point three points per game. So, like I've said all year long, when it comes to Russell Wilson, when the games are competitive and you get some back and forth between the two teams, Russell Wilson is going
to have monster games. Guess what. This past defense for the Tampa Bay Bucks not very good. I love Tyler Lockett, I love DK Metcalf This week, I love Russell Wilson. Chris Carson tough matchup going up against this Bucks run defense their first in the NFL, and run defense TV away doesn't matter. Chris Carson has seen at least twenty carries in four straight games. You start everybody in this game outside of whoever the Seahawks tight end is. We're
not doing that again. We're not touching the Tampa Bay Bucks running backs because I just think that we're getting a lot of throwing the football here. And I hope that this is a game where both Evans and Godwin could go off greg because they have played seven games together, they have only had big games in the same game twice so far this season. I think we get one
of those games again this week. Sail secondary has not been good this year, a big low spot potentially for Chris Gonwin and Mike Evans if Jamis Winston could just get the ball to his top two wide receivers. The next game up for US, Frank brings us to Denver in Mile High City as Bronco's host Baker Mayfield and the Browns. The Ronco's Brandon Allen when making his first start of the year, but potentially not his last, as Joe Flacco was placed on injured reserve earlier today. He
has done for the season. We will see Drew Lock at some point, but he is not the active backup, he will not be ready to go. Ripen will be the backup off the practice squad for Denver as Brandon Allen makes his first start against Cleveland, and Greg, I wish that I could tell you more about Brandon Allen. What I can. I know that's supposed to be my job.
I don't know what to expect from this guy. And it sucks because Courtland Sutton has been so consistent this year, at least seventy receiving yards in every game this season. But it's a tough Brown secondary. Brandon Allen making the first start of his career. Courtland Sutton, whereas he was inside my top twelve last week at the wide receiver position, more of a low end wide fever two for me this week because of that, those those question marks regarding
Brandon Allen and this pass game. But what the Broncos should be able to do is run the football. We've seen the past two weeks. Royce Freeman has scored a touchdown each of those. Philip Lindsay a little bit banged up this week. Pay attention to that he's been dealing with a risk injury. He actually had surgery on that risk in the off season. So just really pay attention to the the status of Phillip Lindsay heading into this game. But I like both Lindsay and Freeman as top twenty
running backs. The way to attack the Browns defense is by running the football. We would have liked no offense if Flacco was the quarterback because fans just saw eight targets. But again with Brandon Allen, let's take it away and see approach and see what happens this week. Greg, Baker Mayfield so far this season not very good. He you know, he had a lot to say about Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones performing a lot better than Baker Mayfield. Baker has
a six touchdowns and twelve interceptions on this season. Obviously, you're starting Nick Chubb. This is the last game of huntless Chubb, so it's gonna be interesting to see next week how this usage breaks down between Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. Greg. I asked Jim Day about this on the Frenzy. I asked, do you start Odell Beckham? How do you feel about him? Because all logic says tough matchup against Chris Harris. The Broncos have been stingy against
wide receivers. This here in fantasy. But how do you bench him right? Like he was your first second round pick and if he goes off on your bench, you're gonna feel terrible about You're still You're stuck. You are stuck. I agree, And if I own Odell Beckham, he's still a top twenty wide receiver for me. This week. Again, like Jim said, you can't explain it, but you just gotta still roll out there with Odell Beckham. You know, the target share hasn't been where it wasn't years past.
Still it's a very good Mark Jarvis Landry for me, more of a low end wide receiver. Three this week Sunday Night Football, Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens taking on the New England Pages. I really like Lamar Jackson and the Ravens in this game. What are we doing? I don't know what do we do? Win? Man? This is like one of those games were like, yes, the a f C North, it's coming, Like they're gonna show up and they're gonna stop the New England Patriots. Well
guess what. Big Ben and the Steelers played the Patriots in Week one. Great. They were three and a half point underdogs they got demolished. It just sets up for another one of those games. And it's tough figuring out whether you should use Lamar Jackson or not, because the Patriots takeaway your offense is best weapon. Their offenses best weapon is Lamar Jackson being able to run the football.
And I think that they're gonna do a lot of whatever the Chargers did last year Greg where they have more DBS on the field, a lot of speed on the field. They really try and put that spy on Lamar Jackson and have him try to beat them passing the ball. With that being said, I cannot trust Hollywood Brown in the spot. I know that he is likely going to play. I can't do it against his secondary I understand he's one of those guys that can really just make your week with one big play. I can't
do it. It's his first game back from injury. I am fading Hollywood Brown this week. Mark Andrews. I am still going to use Ham because he's gonna have to throw the ball to somebody. The targets have been there for Mark Andrews hasn't necessarily been getting it done recently, but they're gonna have to score some points. I think
it comes from Mark Andrews. Tom Brady still inside of my top twelve, but the Ravens secondary is getting healthier, Greg, Jimmy Smith is back in the spot you're still using. Julian Edelman. I want to take another wait and see approach with Mohammed san new versus Philip Dorset, Tony Michelle more of a low n RB two and I think James White as always high inflexing PPR leagues. Master look this weekend with your lineups come up next is wayer talk,
followed by out the window for Frank Stavil. I'm Greg Sousman, have a great weekend, enjoy the games. We'll see you get him Monday. We hope. I want to be the next Daily Fantasy Millionaire.

As we said, Kenyan Drake, Emmanuel Sanders got the job done for a roll of teams. That's good. The bad Heavin Coleman very bad.
That whole thing that we said yesterday about taking the over in his total yardage prop Von, if we could just kind of delete that from existence, from the Internet, from audio boom wherever, like, just delete that because it never happened. Of course, what am I even talking about? Brita was very good. Fifteen carries for seventy eight yards.
This was frustrating. I still think most weeks Tavin Coleman is going to be the guy greg and he played more snaps and he still saw, you know, sixteen running back opportunities. He was targeted four times in the past game, met Brito only targeted twice. So look, these things are gonna happen whenever there's a running back by committee. But it's still a really good team with a really good offensive line and they want to run the football. I
think last night was an outlier game. It was a really good matchup, and you know what, I give credit to Kyle Shanahan, because you should change up your game plan, your offensive game plan, based on the deficiencies of the team that you're playing. Now, I'm sure that they could have run the football more against the Cardinals and it probably would have worked out. But going into this game, Kyle Shanahan likely knew that the Cardinals are very weak
against the past, and that's exactly what he did. And we saw a career day out of Gucci Garoppolo greg four touchdowns over three hundred yards. Yesterday on the show, we were debating Jimmy Garoppolo or Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray ended up having a pretty good game as well, saved by not the bell but by Andy is a Bellah see what I did there. But Jimmy Garoppolo I ended up going with him in my super flex lineup. I benched Kyler Murray. I have Minshew in there. I feel
pretty good about it. Greig, absolutely you should feel good about that. A great decision, Frank, I was proud of you. Emmanuel Sanders, awesome game as one man. This guy just continues to defy all sports medicine logic. Again, I understand he's getting further and further removed, but at age thirty two, whatever he is to be playing at this level coming off a torn achilles greg it truly is commendable. And it looks like we might have a legit high end
wide receiver three on our hands. Moving forward for Emmanuel Sanders, how about this, I'll throw it out there for you. Obviously this was a great matchup. Do you try and sell Emmanuel Sanders? Considering he has scored in back to back games. I would absolutely the Santancis four niners. Unlike last night, they don't really throw the ball. It's not their game and they want to run the football. There's another game coming up against the Cardinal soon. I believe that.
So in my in a pool, that idea of the Survivor player pool. So I saved that George Kittle and Jimmy g for the next one, the one at home in two weeks. Last night I used Tevin Coleman. Hopefully kills healthy enough to play. You know what's gonna happen, Frank, Tevin Coleman's gonna have four touchdowns in two weeks, and Kiddo and Jimmy, you gonna do nothing. Absolutely, that's a lock the lock in entry you can't get it right. But you know, I'm looking at the matchup coming up
for Sanders. He has Seattle next week. While it says that you know, the fantasy numbers show that the Seahawks are tough against opposing wide receivers, I don't think that they are a very good defense, and I think that you can actually pass on Seattle
