Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio, your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy football advice, speculation, and whatever stupid stuff they decided to drop into the show. Now, here's your host, Paul. Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly. I am Paul Chargi and co host today Matt Harrison. I am Matt Harrison. Yes, I think I think you were up. I think it was your turn in the order, the

batting order. Yeah, we've been we've been rotating around fairly well this summer, I think. Yeah. Actually, I mean Brian, Brian had all of last summer. He did, he was a Warrior last year. But we've been we've been kind of doing a good job of rotating it. Yeah, for sure. For sure, we're going to break down the key things you need to know about every team in the a

f C West today. Yes, and we hext. We did all of the We've done all all the other divisions, and you can find those on previous episodes of Fantasy Football Weekly, and we encourage you to go back and delve into the archives of Fantasy Football Weekly. So we'll hit Raiders, Charges Broncos Chiefs, and you know, break down the the offseason moves, the things you need to know.

Just some of the refresher stuff is we're starting to get into the draft season and really, I've said this now for two straight weeks, really optimistic by the time you hear the skillotine leagues dot Com will be I've been. I've just been refreshing it over and over. Control of five, control of five, and a bore people with all the little details. But yeah, it hasn't just trying to get all the just sharpening the blade. Yeah, that's right with that.

All right, let's start with you if you don't mind Raiders, How does you want to start with Raiders? Okay, let's start with the Raiders, a team that I think everybody feels like is on an uptick right now based on is there any team in the a f C West that doesn't feel like they're on kind of an uptick? I mean, Kansas City can't be on the uptick since they've been they've been up there so long and they lost Tyreek kill. Um. So we'll start with Derek carr Uh.

He seems very secure in his position, so much so that he said Colin Kaepernick would fit really well in Vegas. I mean, if Cars given that endorsement, that's kind of cool. Um. He had the best passing year of his eight year career last season, just over forty hundred yards, but only twenty three touchdowns Through seventeen games. His a DP has shot up to QB fourteen, which is about as high as it's ever been, just behind Aaron Rodgers on the list. It is as high as it's ever been, no doubt

about it. But you know, you look at that lacking passing score total and if you want to emulate what Aaron Rodgers does, you go get Aaron Rodgers favorite receiver. And they traded for Davante Adams, who is the wide receiver who's had the most receiving scorers in the league over the last handful of years, twenty nine in the last two years alone. Uh five different double digit receiving touchdown campaigns in his career. Oh, by the way, he

was cars teammate at Fresno State. Both entered the league in both were second round picks. But Derek Carr's just not Aaron Rodgers. And this is Davante Adams entering his age thirties season so despite this shotguns since City Wedding, I'd scale back my expectations on Adams just a little bit. He's an Alpha, but there's a couple other players there who really need the ball, and they're good enough that

he's got the best supporting cast around him. As far as other options, including Hunter Renfrow, who they liked enough to resign to a brand new deal this week, Yeah,

let's go to him. He was kind of thought going into last Seaons maybe the third, fourth, fifth option in Vegas, and he really took over that team starting in training camp, held Brian Edwards off the field, was really better than Henry Ruggs when he was still a part of the team, and out of the eighteen games last year including the playoffs, Renfro had six or more catches in eleven and he scored an eight different games. So he was very consistent.

I mean kind of like the the poor Man's Cooper Cup. Really, Renfro was a third tier fantasy asset prior to the second half of last year when everybody else went down and that offense had to funnel through him. And so the question in my mind is healthy Darren Waller Adams Now there what do you know where does that leave Hunter Renfro in the pecking order when Derek car goes back. I mean, is he is he number three of three here?

Or is he the guy who developed such a rapport with David Carr over the last year that he's still number one in David Carr's eyes? Could be? Could be a little bit of both, um, I mean Renfro and Adams? What a what a tandem? Adams has never had as good of a wide receiver on the other side since Jordy Nelson. Did they play together? Yeah, like in his first cup? Okay, I mean Adams Adams then there was

a ball dropping fool back in those days. So I mean and then you he's never Adams has never had a tight end as good as Darren Waller, who was injured for most one. Even when he did play, he was kind of a shell of his Those were two yards seasons. He also scored nine times in Yep, that's it. I should have warned. All we need is a piece of tape and abe maker I need. I need to do this. I'll just talk the rest of the time. Go get the label maker. Don't tap me if you're

worrying In the background. That's the label maker snip. All right, Waller seemed like the only option in nineteen and twenty though from getting the label maker. You keep talking, are you? This is this is great podcasting here. Um, he might be the third fiddle in this offense. And he's sure a top five tight end on draft day. Really has the potential to finish in the top three if a few touchdowns break right for him. Here comes charged back into the room with the label maker. I'm so impressed,

but I'm gonna move on to Josh Jacobs. He just had his fifth year option declined by the Raiders. He's in a contract here, it's likely his last year in Las Vegas. And I haven't even mentioned yet that he's got a new head coach in Josh McDaniels, who fell out of the Bill Belichick tree, which means Shenanigans could be afoot with the running backs. Kenyan Drake is back in Las Vegas. Brandon Bolden came over with McDaniels, and Bolden was used a lot in the passing game in

New England last year. Amir Abdullah is still there. I heard the snip. There was the snip of that. That's right. That was the snip of my label maker, got right here, nine nine x UM. The Raiders also drafted Zamir White in the fourth round and Brittain Brown a little bit later. Zamir White could be a factor in Las Vegas this year. Jacobs was already coming off his lowest touch total season

in his three year career. So there's not a lot of confidence here in Jacobs wouldn't surprise me at all if he was held under the two touch mark this year, with Drake Bolden and Zamir White all factoring into the city. Now I agree with all that, but let me throw this out, okay throwing Is there any chance that, especially with Sam the draft pick is a mere White, they already know that they are likely to move on from him and they just use Josh Jacobs up. Yeah, they could.

They could definitely do that. But just knowing how McDaniels operated the offense in New England last year, you had Damien Harris for some games, you had Romandre Stevenson for some games, really a factor in the passing game. He had like forty eight catches last year unbeknownst to most. So UM, I just think that it's probably a three

headed monster here. At the minimum I think it is, I'm not touching Josh Jacobs in uh, other than he's a real do the opposite guy this year, right, I mean, you know you're gonna be able to get Josh Jacobs in the fifth, sixth round and at that point he starts to make a little more sound. I believe his a DP is in the sixth Right now, that's all I got for theaters if you want to YEA, let's talk Chargers right now. Uh, the beginning with Justin Herbert, the air Bear, the air Bear. Oh why didn't I

wear my air Bear T shirt? Available Chuck Fantasy dot com. He Justin Herbert. You know, I knew he had a good season, but you kind of forget all the details. Sometimes he went back and dug back in pretty much in any scoring system. He ended up being the second highest scoring fantasy quarterback last year, aided by five thousand passing yards and thirty eight passing touchdowns. Helps a lot. But here's the one thing you may not realize. Herbert's

a sneaky, reliable rushing threat. Last year he ran for three hundred yards and three touchdowns. Uh, A very mobile Kyler Murray as a comparable, ran four only one hundred more yards and two more rushing touchdowns, And we think of Murray as being high Lee mobile. You on had a hundred more yards and two more rushing touchdowns, and two years ago Herbert ran for the same five touchdowns I'm talking about. So uh and Herbert was six and

rushing attempts last year. So the mobility really, it's just it's like the cherry on top of the Justin Herbert Sunday that you get when you invest a high draft pick in him. Let's go to the running game. Austin Ekeler current ADP is second overall. I know that's um, yeah, in the league obviously the league player. He was touted by you and I Matt for a long time. No, that's a sad trump bone. Where's the peacock? Where it is? Labelmaker? Should I label it massy or cock? P cock? The

letter p cock? Um? So you and I have we were we were Austin Ekeler believers for a couple of years and it really took until this coaching administration to let him be a full time player. But how much weight do you put into the draft acquisition of idea Isaiah Spiller, because I'm nervous about it. He is a talented back who could easily siphon off enough carries to make it almost impossible for Eckler to make good on

that to a DP. It's just the ADP is so high, and I love the guy, but he has to have another workhorse year and he's only ever had one of those. Yeah, And I think it was the last time I was on the show, I was talking a little bit about Spiller and how I was a little nervous about Ekeler, and you were even surprised that I was like, maybe it's time to jump off the Eckler bandwagon then, rather than a year two late at his ADP, there's I think there's some concern for that. Still love him as

a player and everything. And remember one other thing. Ovin's coordinator, Joe Lombardi has always used shared back fields in New Orleans, right, and you know he has no last year was a was the off was the weird workhorse year for Ekeler, the weird workhorse year for Joe Lombardi. They didn't have anybody else that was it. I don't think that anybody else they wanted to get the ball. Larry Roundtree. They you know, Justin Jackson is not even in the NFL

right now, So roll all that together. I'm nervous about Ekeler. Let's talk about Spiller for a minute. Most services had Spiller rated as a third round talent. He ended up going fourth round um and it was the third uh it Most had him as the third running back up the board. I think he went like fourth or fifth running back up the board. Very good all purpose back, creates his own yards, patient runner, punishing, punishing for opposing tacklers.

And he's got good hands and that's very important for a Joe Lombardi offense. Very productive at Texas A and M So there's a lot to like about Spiller, and I do believe he will end up being a uh. He'll be more of a factor this year than any one other running back was in the Chargers offense. I agree with that. Let's talk Mike william Uh. Just last episode, I discussed his downside in great details, so I'm not

gonna spend a lot more time on it. But Matt, I will just tell you, although I know you listened to last week's I am nervous about any player who puts up by far their best season in their contract year, and that's what he just did. ADP is expensive right now for Mike Williams, so I'm I have some hesitation on him. Keenan Allen no real changes here. At least a hundred thirty six targets in five straight years, which is amazing. The model of consistency at the wide receiver,

it really is. It really is. If you have Keenan Allen as your second wide receiver on your fantasy team, I'm showing you a great fantasy team. You really are and just ideal for Guillotine League US because he just doesn't give you dud games. Get this, Over the last three years, Keenan Allen has had three total dud games where he failed to hit four catches or fifty receiving yards for three years. All the rest of them have been at least the four catches and over fifty yards.

It's it's amazing consistent, Pop. You just avoided the dud game. Uh. Josh Palmer's fascinating. I hadn't realized how much he stepped up at the end of the season, and I believe he will walk into the number three receiving role in an offense in which your quarterback just through for five thousand yards. Right, there's there's yardage to go around. I loved a sleeper Josh Palmer. Here. Get this before and

after December twelfth. The game on December twelve, for Josh Palmer, his snaps went from eighteen per game to forty eight per game. That's a tripling. His targets went from two per game to six per game. That's a tripling. His yards went from fourteen to thirty seven. His touchdowns went from one touchdown before December twelve to three touchdowns after December twelve. It's it's triple Palmer. It is Fantasy points per game went from two to seven. That's more than triple.

It is a little bit more than triple Josh Palmer. If that if those last five games that we saw at the end of the year, or any indication of what's coming this year, Josh Palmer is going to be a sneaky draft pick. I would like to extrapolate all those and makes him like wide receiver, and I'm not ready to quite do that, not on seven fantasy points

per game. But I think it showed where a young receiver had earned the trust of the coaching staff, and he rolls into a much bigger role this year tight end. I'm not gonna spend a lot of time on Gerald Everett and Donald Parham, but I'm only gonna mention this. Evert's on his third team in three years. He doesn't interest me at all. He's just a guy. Parham, however, is very interesting. Is a last pick of the draft dart throw. He's entering his pivotal third year. Is a

tight end, gigantic. He's six ft eight, two hundred forty pounds, and he's fast, athletic, has just one drop in two years. His season last year got cut short on a on a big time SUPERSTI ay hit, Yeah, the souper you remember it so but part him. I think it is a fascinating dart throw tight end, and I'd keep an eye on Donald parm offensive line game first rounder Zion

Johnson for the Chargers. Let's take a break, Matt. When we come back, let's talk through Broncos and Chiefs Segment number two Fantasy Football Weekly, breaking down the teams of the a f C West, and we now pivot to the Denver Broncos home of Denver, home of Mary's Mountain Cookies, which I could not recommend more highly. You had me at cookies. I'm in Where when are we going? Uh, they'll ship road trip, Yeah, they'll ship him. I've got

some of my freezer. I shipped them here after I was in Fort Collins in Colorado Springs and found in this place because they're sprinkled throughout the Greater Colorado area. Uh, And I'm like, um, these are amazing. So then I came home and I shipped had them ship a dozen to me, and I ate a bunch of them when they got here, and then I froze the rest. How do they compare to the Crumble cookies? Crumble is straight garbage compared to these. I knew you'd have a strong opinion.

Crumble cookies are so sweet you can't eat them. By the way, awful, my teeth are. My teeth hurt with every chocolate chip cookie is really good. Though I'm not a big fan of all their crazy flavors and stuff. Their chocolate chip is solid. But I heard you. I heard you in fish talking last week about five guys, and you were bashing five guys. Five guys isn't about the fries. Five guys is about the burger and that they only have three things on the menu and fries

is one of them. You better do it well, you know. And I disagree on the fries too. I think when they get them right and they're nice and crispy, they're not, but they're so oh you gotta get him on him. Oh they're they're they're delightful, and the burger is not that great. Dan Ver Broncos, I have I have reason to believe Russell Wilson is your new starting quarterback. Yeah. I can't talk about that without talking about the offseason

trade that landed them dangerous Wilson. You get to pair him with a new head coach and play caller, Nathaniel Hackett, who comes over from Green Bay. By the way, all my intel and on Hackett, he's really good, yeah, really good. Well. He brought in offensive coordinator Pat Shermer as well, who, uh, we've seen have some some good success in the past, not great success as a head coach, but as an

offensive coordinator he's been above average. So they're guiding the offense, which kind of feels like it's a totally different outlook for Wilson. Getting out of the Seattle mode where Pete Carroll wants to run the ball. But I looked back on it, um, all of the Wilson, Hackett and Shermer offense is in the last three years. We're all between fifty four and fifty seven passing right in the middle of the pack. So fundamentally, it doesn't look like there's

going to be some major shift. Russell Wilson's not going to pass a heck of a lot more um, But that doesn't mean that people aren't drafting these wide receivers like really high. And I'm gonna start with Jerry Judy. Uh. He had some legal issues this offseason, dinged up a bit in mini camp. Everyone is all over Judy as a sleeper, which in turn means that he really can't be a sleeper anymore because we're all wide awake pushed too high. Yeah, he's in the fourth round for ADP

right now, it's too high. In ten healthy games last year, Judy scored zero touchdowns and averaged around four catches for forty seven yards per game. Now he will most certainly improve upon those numbers with a massive upgrade at quarterback, but he's going in the fourth round. Guys right behind him include Terry McLaren, DK metcalf, Allen Robinson, A Marii Cooper, Chris Godwin, Rashad Bateman, Juju Smith Schuster. I'd rather have

all of the above over Jerry Judy right now. You're you're really when you take Jerry Judy that high, Matt, You're doing it all on talent and what we saw in college, and we've seen glimpses of with the Broncos, but never consistently, and projecting what that could look like if it all comes together. With Russell Wilson, You're you're betting on him being materially better and that it does

all come together. You're betting on explosive output from Judy, and we just haven't seen that in the pros yet. Courtland Sutton did play every game last season. He scored two whole touchdowns. So we're drafting him at an ad PIE slightly higher than Jerry Judy. Higher. You mean earlier, he's earlier. He's earlier in the fourth round. Uh. He also had only three games of over ninety yards. I mean, man,

the Broncos passing game just sucked last year. But um, he's He's four or five picks ahead of Judy right now, slightly more bankable as we've actually seen him have a thousand yards season once in his four year career. But to me, if I'm in the fourth round, I don't think I'm going to take the variants that could come with these wide receivers. And by the way, Tim Patrick, the third string wide receiver, had more touchdowns last year then Judy and Sutton have combined over the last two years.

What I don't know if you have Patrick's ADP in front of you, but out of the three, I might pick Patrick if I had to pick one, I don't. I don't have it in front of me, but it's probably sixteenth round in there. Um, my favorite little sleeper from this offense is Albert aquag Bonam or Albert Oh as many like to call him. He's probably the Bronco I'll get on most of my rosters. Currently, the sixteenth

tight end off the board. A twelveth round a DP, you get the subtraction of Noah Fan who went over to Seattle in the Wilson trade, and Albert Oh seems like a prime player to jump into a significantly higher target share. Wilson's tight ends have averaged six touchdowns per year over the last three and if Albert's looking at sixty catches and around six hundred yards, which is kind

of line, that's probably fair where he was. I think greg deals are just gonna be a very good player and we'll eat into that, but probably not this year. But sixty catches, six hundred yards and five or six scores, that's got him at about tight end twelve. So he's definitely in play there. Uh. Finally, let's talk the runners, and it's Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon, and I'm putting them together because they are just a split right down the frustrating split or where they were last year, and

I but suspect they will be this Uh. And Williams was electric for most of the year, didn't fair too well on the ground in the final three weeks of the season, where he ran for only two point six yards per carry, kind of wore down. At the end of the year, averaged four point eight yards per carry and the other four team games, but the biggest issue was the near even split, and Gordon outscored Williams ten to seven in the touchdown department. Uh. Could the better

back win out in this new system. Question mark Nathaniel Hackett's offense did this last year in Green Bay. Aaron Jones had two three touches. A J. Dillon had two touches split. You have to take Javonte in the early third. He was going almost in the first before Melvin Gordon resigned. Melvin Gordon isn't going off the board until the ninth round turn. I'll take Melvin Gordon there. It's not exciting. It's another dude the opposite running back. Yeah, but round

and you might get the exact same numbers. Unfortunately, four round. We all want Javonte Williams to be the guy, but it's not the cards. For the Kansas City Chiefs, we've got more change than usual, and we highlighted this in last week's show. No team has more vacated targets in the NFL by a mile than the Chiefs too, and so we do have a lot of change here. Let's

start with Patrick Mahomes. Obviously, everything runs through him, and this could be a year with an unusual amount of inconsistency from Mahomes because of all these changes and and some other factors too that we'll talk about and you may have forgotten. He had a long stretch of mortality fantasy wise from mid October to early December, which is a long time, mid October to early December, a six game stretch in which he had one good game and

five terrible games. For Patrick Mahomes, he had never had a stretch this bad is one good game, by the way, fifty attempts five touchdowns. The other five games I'm referring to during the six game stretch, he averaged two hundred eighteen yards and zero point four touchdowns. It's Teddy Ridgewater is looking at that and pointing and laughing. So you highlighted just an air bear. You highlighted Patrick Mahomes. Here,

who's going to be higher on your cheat sheet? It'll so you're gonna be the air josh Alan one and air air bear. I believe he is too. Yeah, I've you know, I've got it done. I just have done it in front of me. But I think that's right, all right. I love I love passing consistency. Sure, yeah, anyway, okay, so let's keep moving on here. So just I think,

by the way, Mahomes finished very very well. So I mentioned the six games where he you know he had this long stretcher struggled, but he did finish to get finish to your very well, multiple touchdowns in the final eight games that you including the playoffs. So you know, he's still Patrick Mahomes, but you may have more inconsistency

than at any any point that we've seen in the past. Still, I just want to highlight that for Travis Kelsey turns thirty three this year, there's been a lot made of that in the off season, some small statistical signs of slowing down last year. His lowest target numbers since two thousand seventeen, his lowest yards since two thousand and seventeen, his lowest average reception distance since um all that last year, and he also had the horrible stretch of games. His

stretch of bad games was even longer, Matt. Travis Kelsey went through a ten game stretch spanning from Week four to Week fourteen, almost the entire Fantasy regular season, in which he scored two touchdowns. And in that stretch he had four absolute dund games with three or four catches and less than twenty seven yards in those games. So we another player that we have been used to, Travis Kelsey being just a consistent producer. Last year, we saw that start to change. He's gonna be a year older.

I think you have to build in some variants into Travis Kelsey's probable outcome this year. He also broke up with his girlfriend and she revealed that she he was charging her half of the rent. Good. I love that you're back to number one. That's fantastic. Can't freeload off Travis Kelsey. I like it. He's had his own house though he doesn't pay rent, he owns a house. But I like that he's rent renting to his girlfriend. He's teaching her a lesson up front. I like that. Well there,

it's his X now girlfriend. Kansas City's wide receivers as a position group, let me ask you this, Matt. If you think Patrick Mahomes is gonna throw for let's say thirty touchdowns, right you know, so you know that's less than he had and he's had in any healthy season old downticks from where he's been the last few years, one or more of his receivers is sitting on a pretty big years, probably double digits, right, Kelsey Kelsey, Kelsey takes ten right exactly? If Kelsey takes ten, I got

twenty five un accounted four touchdowns. Most of them are going to go to wide receivers. Yes, six probably going to running backs, leaves nineteen for wide receivers. That's Juju smith Schuster territory right there. Let's talk about him. You're more optimistic Abottom than I am. Returns from his shoulder injury that cost him almost all of last season, did not score his four healthy games last year and averaged his average game last year, went healthy, three catches, thirty

two yards. I'm not sure Ben Roethlisberger could get him the ball last year, though he's got a little bit more of a strong armed quarter was pretty good. It's true. Uh, Juju ran seventy of his snaps from the slot over the last two years, and you figure he'll take over a lot of those Tyreekill slot routes. Uh, they can't run him the same way because nobody else's Tyreek Hill, but uh he'll He'll ran about half his total routes from the slot. I think, I think, I think Juju

ends up being a slot receiver in this sense. Marcus Velda scantling good reports out of mini camps. Um Normally you might say that moving to a Patrick Mahomes offense from anybody else means you're gonna get an automatic uptick. But he's coming from Aaron Rodgers, So you know. Eron throws a great deep ball. So does Patrick Mahomes. It's you know what you're gonna get with him. He's the really the team's only deep speed threat. Now the Tyreek Hill is gone, and this team loves to challenge deep.

But you're gonna have the games where those deep balls connect, and you're gonna have games when they do not connect. It feels like it's going to be impossible to start Marquees Veldez. It'll take some guts, yeah, and I feel like you'll guess wrong more often than not. You certainly that was certainly the case in Green Bay. Usage probably goes up here, I think because this team does want to throw deep, and he's the obvious guy to do that too. Then let's go to Sky Moore, who I

also talked about extensively last week. I love him. I want to reiterate that. I think there's a very good chance that right this minute, today, at this second, look at the clock, like your watch, your your iPhone, watch, whatever. He's the best receiver on the team. Sky Moore right now as a rookie could be the best receiver on that team by the end of the year. I feel even more strongly that by the end of your sky Moore will be the best receiver on this team. There's

there's some confidence in that. Like it. Kole Hardman. I I don't see any obvious reason to believe that Hardman's role is gonna be any different in your four, except that there's more available routes to run with all these players gone. Pring gone and Robinson gone and tyreek Kill gone. Clyde Edwards Hilaire took a massive step back in year two, but his ADP suggests that people should you know, is suggest that people are bullish on him rebounding. I was surprised.

I was thinking to myself going into this exercise, you know, we don't like Clyde Edwards layer, but he's gonna be so cheap. He's not that cheap. He's running back twenty five in the fifth round. That's not that cheap. That's not the discount I expected. That's not where I'm taking him. I I need a bigger discount before I'm gonna I'm

gonna go move on, Clyde Edwards Hlayer. If you distill a lot of negative factors, it really gives you a clear portrait of a deeply unreliable fantasy producer in Clyde Edwards a layer. Injuries, the few goal line carries, the modest number of carries, and a bewildering lack of usage in the passing game. You put all the together, Clyde Edwards a layer, it's he's got to make good on his uh running back a DP is gonna have to be a materially different and better player than he has been.

Andy Reid was known for years and years for having, you know, great running backs that caught passes and everything like that. But as soon as Patrick Mahomes arrived on the scene, it seems it seems like those running backs have just disappeared. And it's interesting to me that maybe Andy Reid just shifted his complete focus by having a weapon like and he's like, I, I just am not

going to do this anymore. It's easier to pack. I could dump the ball off a bunch of times to my running backs, or I could throw four yard lasers with Patrick Mahomes. That's I think you're right let's talk Ronald Jones, presumed to be taking over the Darryl Williams role, is reflected by another healthy ADP. He's running back forty one in the ninth round. I don't love it. I just don't know that he's any good. You know, the

Bucks certainly don't think he was. You know, it's it's been two years since they've given him any kind of meaningful role with Tampa Bay and they just let him walk. Yeah, you're not gonna have a Kansas City running back on

your roster charge. Probably you won't. I won't. There's one guy, really, So then let's talk about Derek Gore or average five yards carry last year, but didn't impress Andy Reid enough to get any kind of role in the postseason, in which he had a three carry game, a zero carry game in an inactive game in the in the postseason. Um and so I I'm not that I'm not that

intrigued by Derek Gore, honestly. Rookie Isaiah Paschico, on the other hand, so he was a seventh round draft pick out of Rutger's horrible offensive line, but he somehow managed to still be productive and he showed some real moments of explosiveness, good speed, good footwork, really good. He's got four three eight right, a four three at forty um and he's he's gonna win the Jussical build. I like another.

I've already recommended another player. Donald Parham is the last pick in your draft, Isaiah Pascheko, Let's watch him in the prese. You're going to trade down for multiple last round picks. I'm you're gonna get a whole bunch of first and a whole bunch of lasts. I like that idea. All right, thanks for listening to our breakdown to the a f C West. Next week NFC West, and then we've done all the teams. Yeah, I'll come back and do the NFC West with you. How about that would be?

That would be fantastic. Talk to you in a week. Everybody. Fantasy Football Weekly is a production of I Heart Radio. For more podcasts from my heart Radio, visit the I heart Radio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you listen to your favorite shows.
