Do you know what it is? It's your boy, Dane Martinez a k S b j K to spitting Statistician a k A. The Stable Genius and Vocal Minority, and you're listening live to another edition of the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Episode three forty three. Thanks to Lance Davis for following me with the intro. And we're about to get it on and popping on an election day, make sure you get out there and vote. You probably know my politics,

but it doesn't matter what your politics are. Get out there and vote. But we got a good show for you today on a Tuesday. Here's what we're gonna do, like we usually do, We're gonna look back a little bit at week nine and tell you about the trends, the takeaways, the injuries. Who's next man up for some injuries and they were some Okay, what I got right? What I got wrong? Then we'll look ahead to starting

the week ten waiver wire ads. Okay, there are some interesting guys on the waiver wire this week, especially if you are in need of a running back, especially if you are in PPR formats. I got not one, not too but three names you should look at for a PPR running back that you could probably get on the waiver wire, So stay locked for that. Okay, Then, as always, we're gonna put the fun and functional sports content a

little bit later on in the show. All right, in segment three, we're gonna get down with the stats over beat Cipher. I got my man, Danny Otto down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Dilly dilly to him, I ain't got my beard today. I don't know this is qualify as an autumnal mead. I'm not sure, but we're gonna make it. You know, it's gonna be done by the time this hour is done. And with the seven likes that are on there right now, we're gonna

get that up and popping as well. Okay, we're gonna take your questions right here in the chat room on YouTube. Will check it with the phone number. We'll give the phone number a little bit later on as well. Okay, So a good show for you as you continue your playoff push. We also got a pull question up there for you right now, if you check it out on Twitter at spitting speeds. The question is Levian Bell tweeted quote unquote farewell Miami yesterday, leaving many people to believe

he is on his way to Pittsburgh. He's only got at this point something like seven days left to report. What is your reaction to it? You know? And my options are welcome back Levan? Is it? Boo? I'm on team Connor right now? Is it? Can we just end this already? You know we're giving updates every week? Can we just stop with this? Or is the question now? Now? Who do I start? You know? And I think that's

an interesting one. We already have a response by Jared Savino, who I like friend to decipher, says, as both the left Bell and the James Connor owner, I wish Bell had either been traded, but now I hope he just doesn't play at all, so I could ride the hot hand with Connor. Listen, Jared, I'm in the same boat in my long term dynasty league, where by the way, I am eight and one and in first place. I have you guys zoom in on that one in a little while. Um, I own Bell and Connor, and I'm

in the same boat. I was hoping Bell got traded so I had starting running backs on two teams now hoping it just don't happen at all, because Connor right now is RB three in fantasy. And what I've said, I said it two weeks ago, three weeks ago, I said, here's what's gonna happen and why it's gonna suck for Connor owners and Bell owners. What's gonna happen is this is going to become a time share. And the reason why you love Levian Bell usually is because he's one

of these workhorse backs. The reason James Conner is, you know running back three right now in fantasy is because he is performed as a workhorse back. Neither one of them are going to be workhorse backs. Would you now have us to I don't know, We'll see, you know, r B two's maybe an RB two and a flex play. That's not what you're looking for. You're looking for that stud as you go into the fantasy playoffs, and we'll see how the Pittsburgh Steelers decide to play it. All right,

So that's the whole question. Let me know what you think. Let's dive in right now of some news and notes since last we spoke on Thursday. First of all, some people going to i R alright on wide receivers going to I are some wide receiver news alright. Paul Richardson from the Washington football team, he is having season injuring shoulder surgery. Say that five times fast season ending shoulder surgery. Well that he's having it. Okay, So the question is

who's next man up? All right? Um is Jamison crowd are gonna be back healthy? I got a waiver potential ad, right, is Josh Dockson? Do they just throw more to Jordan Read and Vernon Davis. I'll let you know when we talk about my waiver wire ads. I think the Jamison Crowder health is a big deal this week to see

how you play the Washington attack. All right. Geronimo Allison has also been sent to i R. He's having that groin issue, the Packers put him on i R. I'm telling you right now, yes, yes, a thousand times yes, Marquez Valdes Scantling needs to be in lineups. He needs to be on rosters. We talked about MVS before and then people were like, oh, but Cob and Allison are coming back. Maybe I dropped MVS. He has been dropped in a lot of places. By the way, I am

now calling Marcus Valves scanting and MVS just so you know. Um, but MVS is right back in that position. Okay, So yeah, you need to add him if possible. Um, you're hearing buzz Dez Bryant working out for the Saints, We'll see. Keep an eye on that. Brandon Marshall working out for the Lions, will see keep an eye out on that. Also, listen, the Ravens are on by. They want of war teams that have a bye this week. This week, Minnesota, Denver, Houston,

and the Baltimore Ravens are on by. So this isn't a Week ten thing, but in week eleven, I kind of wonder who's gonna be the quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens. Our Boys saying it's definitively Flacco. Though he's saying the team is riding with Flacco, the question is do you believe him. I think that with the Ravens still in contention, they're gonna ride Flacco as long as they're still in contention. Okay.

I've been saying this. By the way, that Flacco and that offense started off hot, They've lost something like four of their last five games. The shine has come off the Joe Flacco rose, right, and so the question is when is it Lamar time? Right, It's already been Baker time, It's already been Josh Allen time. It's already been Josh Rosen time. It's started off as Sam Darnold time. When does Lamar and to the fray as the fifth rookie quarterback? It is going to happen. The question is really when.

I don't think it happens. You know, obviously the bye this week, I think Flacco does in fact start for the next week in Week eleven, though the raven see the Cincinnati Bengals, I do believe, okay, And that is a huge game that will decide the fate of Joe Flacco as the starting quarterback in Baltimore. Okay, they've lost four of their last five. Okay, Week five, they lost

to Cleveland twelve nine. They gotta win against Tennessee twenty one. Nothing, right, they lose to New Orleans, they put up twenty three points. They lose to Caroline and they put up twenty one points. They lose to Pittsburgh, they put up sixteen points. That's pretty much what they do. No, it is not the forty seven points of week one. No, it is not the twenty seven points of week three. But that's what they've been doing. But Joe Flacco has been going down

as well. He has not. He's only topped over twelve points one of his last four games. Right, So here's the thing against since in week eleven. If they win that game, though, they're right back in the hunt. They're five and five if that's what happens, right, But if they lose that and they're four and six and they start to fall off the face of the earth, that's

where I think they go to Lamar Jackson. Okay, So if you are in the fantasy playoffs in a super flex or two quarterback league, I'm telling you right now, in weeks fifteen and sixteen, when you need him. I don't know if he's gonna be on the center, so I think you need to plan accordingly and do it now. All right, But you know Hall boys saying at least that Flat will be in the saddle at least for week eleven, so you gotta be okay with that. I

also want to give you a piece of news. This is not necessarily for fantasy right now, but for my team that I have been hyping up all season long. I'm talking about the Los Angeles Chargers. Uh. News that Hunter Henry may come back uh this season. Remember you torres a c L and training camp. There's news that he's already running, cutting, doing some things. He's ahead of schedule, and boy, could the Chargers use him. I've already said this.

I'm high on the Chargers. I've talked about some teams where last week I was like, don't look now, the Chargers were definitely one of them. They're part of the reason I hit my par lay over at the sports book on Sunday. If you hit me on at spitt

and Speed, you see where I was all weekend. Um, but this is great get to be The Chargers might get a Pro Bowl caliber tight end back and a Pro Bowl caliber passwasher back in the next month or so, because remember, Joey Boza could be coming back augmenting that defense. I've told you about the Los Angeles Chargers as a defense. Alright, let's go once again bring up their schedule. I'm telling you about the Charges. People ask me about defenses to stream.

All right, Listen, next week, Oakland, I'll take it. The week after that, Denver, I'll take it the week after that, Arizona. I'll take the Charges as a fantasy defense for the rest of the regular season. Thank you, very very much. Alright. Other news and notes, Listen, Chris Carson banged up with that thigh. All right, he's day to day. We're gonna get practice reports later on in the week. But yes, I'm telling you right now, Mike Davis is a viable

waiver wire. Add because if if Carson's not there, remember how much Seattle Seahawks are running the ball. Remember I've been talking about that that the Seahawks are running something like six of the time. All right, So yeah, you want that running back, whoever it is. And if Carson's out, no, I don't think it's gonna be the kid. Penny I think it's gonna be Mike Davis. So that's interesting. The other injuries I want to talk about last week, and

you know, people don't look at this. A lot fantasy players don't look at it. The casual fan Washington football team had not one, not two, but three offensive linemen. They were already without all Pro tackle Trent Williams. They had three offensive lineman go down and I think they're all out for the rest of the year. There's two starting guards and now out for the rest of the year. Their tackle is gone for the rest of the year. You know what that means. That means it is time

right now to hop off of the Adrian Peterson bandwagon. Okay, it is time to hop off. A lot of people were like, yeah, Adrian Peters and Adrian Peterson at thirty two years old, and blah blah blah, we are now getting a complete backup offensive line in Washington. Those guys are crazy forget about them all right, So I think the shine is off the rows. I am now down on Adrian Peterson because of that offensive line. They also remember Richardson's gone. They got no weapons anymore, are Okay?

Washington had a chance. They were five and two, right with Dallas struggling with fully getting out of the gate slow, they had a chance. They lose in Atlanta to Atlanta on Sunday and they lose their offensive Lineman. This I'm telling you right now. The Philadelphia Eagles are primed to win the NFC East, like at nine and seven. That's what I think is gonna happen. So watch that now. And it's impact on Alex Smith, on Adrian Peterson or anybody in Washington. The other thing other news and notes

to note. A J. Green, guys, this is important. A J. Green is gonna miss some time. They're being very vague about it because they didn't have to say anything because the Bengals warm by last week. A J. Green is gonna miss some time, all right. I think he's gonna miss multiple weeks. I think he's gonna miss two to four weeks, all right. And two to four weeks is

the rest of your fantasy regular season. So if you are, you know, eight and one, like Speedies and spitting statistician, If you're seven and two, if you feel good about the playoffs, it's all good. You could stash A J. Green. You could bench him for now. Make it rock and be Okay, if you're four and five, you're five and four and you need to make a push, you need to strongly consider trading a J. Green to one of the top echelon teams in your league and getting something

that can help you right now. If you're four and five, if you're five and four, you got four weeks left and you need to win. I mean in most settings and most formats, and you need to win. If you're you know, four and five. I've been telling you guys, high scoring seven and six team, the highest scoring seven and six team is gonna be the last team in the playoffs in five. You want to be safe. So if you're five and four, you need to go three in one year. A J. Green is gonna not help

you go three in one over the next four weeks. Okay, So you need to think short term. And I'm concerned about a J. Green. I gotta tell you something. I think that toe is gonna be an issue al right. Also, Nick Mullins is going to be the starting quarterback in San Francisco. Let's see what he does. I know a lot of people are like, oh, it's just Oakland, right, you know who they have next week the New York Giants. You know, Oakland and the Giants both seem to be

trading fire sale tanking, making quote unquote business decisions. So I'm okay with Nick Mullins at least for another week. And then also, you know, over the weekend, the Arizona Cardinals cut Sam Bradford, so let's see if he latches on somewhere. We've been talking about some bad quarterback situations, you know, Miami, New York, with the Giants, Jacksonville, Tampa. Let's see if Bradford catches on anywhere. All right, thanks to everybody in the cipher, we got some questions going on.

We got people listen, we up at twenty eight likes. I like the hundred one people watching right now. What up? Saraje Ptel? What up? Chris See? What up? Strong Style? What up? Everybody that's out there perry ing and the like. We're gonna get to your questions big time. All right, the whole crew is here. That's what's up. So we're gonna answer some of your questions. But first we're gonna get into what I got right, what I got wrong? So I can set the stage I could be accountable.

All that good stuff. We'll give you our waiver wise, and then we're gonna get at some questions for the status over beat cipher here on Fantasy Freestyle episode Oh what are we up to? Episode three forty three? That's what we gotta do a I don't know, Danny. We gotta do something special, like when we hit three fifty, because that's gonna happen in the month of December. We're gonna hit three fifty, then we're gonna hit three sixty five.

We gotta do something for that. But anyway, what I was right on, what I was wrong, here's what I got right. I already talked about this the Baltimore heard. I've been telling you that the herd in Baltimore and Joe Flacco was coming back down to earth Flacco twenty three or thirty seven, two nine yards. And here's the thing. Eight different players had receptions, all right, nobody though, had more than Mooly Sneed's fifty eight yard. That is a

true Fantasy herd that is on the way down. I am divesting right now from guys like John Brown, from Flacco himself, from these tight ends that like four tight ends that get catches Okay, three running backs that get catches unless you need them. Because of bys. You can no longer count on grad Tree on Brown on you know, Mark Andrews on, Uh, you know uh Buck Allen. It's going down and it's spread so thin. And I told you about that. I was right full Chub, baby, it's

time to go full Chubb. I think he's a low end RB one moving forward. I was telling you he's right on that RB one to edge and he delivered again eighty five yards and a touchdown, a total of nine yards and he got listen, twenty three touches. Okay, I think that is going to be consistent. Duke Johnson is going to be a thing again in the PPR receiving game. Nick Chubb is going to be a back that is going to tote the rock. Running back is

soul um, independable. So many teams with time shares and stuff. Nick Chubb is gonna be a high RB two or back end RB one, and I was correct on that one. I've also been saying another guy that I kind of like his, Dion Lewis Man. I've been saying everyone was like off of these Titans, right, Dion Lewis Derrick Henry, and I've been telling people weight up on Dion Lewis. Well, if you listen to Speedies spitting statistician, you were fine, okay in nineteen carries for sixty two yards, another sixty

yards in the receiving game and a touchdown. What's more important to me? He outtouched Derrick Henry and what was a competitive game for the most part twenty three to eight. I've been telling you Dion Lewis is the guy to own. Somebody hit me up on social media earlier that Dion Lewis was available on their waivers. Go grab him. The running backs I'm talking about later on or a tier below Dion Lewis, and I think that's where you need

to go. And also listen, I've been telling you about some teams that I think are primed and ready to make a statement, and three of them performed really well on Sunday. I've been telling you about the Chargers. They now are six and two, only a game back of the Chiefs in the a f C West. Philip Rivers maybe having his best season of his career, and I know that's crazy because it's something like a seventeen year career but he's got nineteen touchdowns and three interceptions in

eight games. All right, They're getting a healthy Melvin Gordon back, Joey bos Is coming back, maybe Hunter Henry. They look good. The Saints look incredible. Drew Brees is an m VP candidate, and don't forget about the Panthers. Cam Newton goes nineteen twenty five, improving his completion percentage. The running totals are there. Christian McCaffrey is an absolute beast. Curtis Samuel D J. Moore getting involved. I told you these teams are making statements,

and that is what's happening. When we come back on Fantasy Free Style, I'll tell you what I got wrong. Come back from the NFL to the NBA.

Celebrate Hiday and there we go all right, by the way, Brian, uh, Brian Chenissie, I hope I got the pronunciation right, Brian, big things. I've been seeing you around and I saw that you're gonna be at the book next week on Sunday for the

football games. Okay, So I appreciate that. Yeah, I was down there on a c I had, you know, our our good friend Craig Carton hooked me up with that, so big shout out to Craig Carton. We did a little bowling outing about a few months ago, and Carton, you know, it was nice enough to offer a free Atlantic City weekend, uh to the winner, whoever was the best bowler and your boys speeds. That spitting statistician put

up a one nineties six to take the title. So I was out there last weekend and it was a good time. Brian. You gotta let me tell you something right now, Brian. If you go in there, the book to go to is that Ocean. Don't go to the Borgata book, Don't go to the trop book. Go to Ocean. Okay, they're the ones that got it right. The William Hill book. Nice little comfy chairs and all that stuff. But if you're gonna get there for football, you need to get there by eleven am to get some kind of area,

all right, because it's a mad house, all right. But it was a lot of fun. Thanks for the shout out, Brian uh Snorke all ops over there. It's it's saying positive things. I like that. Um let's get to fifty likes. Let's do that big shout out to Snorke called ops.

Jordan's who's out there? Yeah, I agree with you. Keenan Allen is primed and ready to go this week because they're facing the Oakland Raiders, and the Oakland Raiders they're worried about their tea times, they're not worried about playing football. I like that call on Keenan Allen Jordan's big timer. Thank you, my friend, Thank you. I appreciate the love as always strong style, you know. I love you. With

the Chargers d that's where I am going. And the tenth flow is asking me about Mike Davis and Elijah McGuire. I'm telling you right now, I like both of those guys. As a waiver wire ad, I have a slight lean to Elijah McGuire, especially in PPR formats. Alright, um snap count actually had McGuire out snapping Isaiah Crowell on Sunday, So we'll get into that a little bit. We got a couple of other questions here from the cipher, Jay Franco saying I need a handcuff for Gronk, Doyle, Usuma,

Herndon and Watson are on the wire. Interestingly enough, Herndon has been looking good lately. He's the seventh tight end in the last month. Okay, but I don't think it's herned in for me. Doyle, I like he's coming back off buy you have him available. That's nice. I like Doyle, but he would be second on this list to me. Why because he's still competing with Eric ebron Usama, however, I think is very interesting. And the reason why is this a J Green injury? Guys. Okay, this is a

J Green injury. If he misses time, what's gonna wind up happening is then Boyd comes to be the number one guy. John Ross, the speedster who could have got an island. He's practicing again, maybe, but what's gonna happen and why this may not be a great thing for Tyler Boyd as all of a sudden, he's gonna get a wide receiver one attention. He's gonna be a wide receiver one defense. He's gonna get safety's rolling over to him.

I love Tyler Boyd, but he's a number two. Is he gonna be able to thrive in that kind of environment with that kind of attention? I don't think so, to be quite honest. So I go to c j Uzma, and I think he will be patrolling the field for me. Frank Um, Jay Franco. It's either Doyle or Usama. I gotta slight lean to Uzuma. Larry m Also, which defense should I grab? Bills, Packers, Redskins or Cults. That's an interest one. Listen the Washington football team. They have been

doing it a lot lately. But here's what I I liked their defense a lot lately, but I think that they're so gashed up because of the offensive line. It can really I know it's the offensive line, but that can impact an entire team. Right offensive line. All of a sudden, at Alex Smith sack fumbled and the defense is put in a bad place. All of a sudden, they can't move the ball. Defense is put in a bad place. So I like Washington generally. But let's see

about these matchups. Okay, you're asking about the Bills. The Bills play the Jets. That is interesting. Sam Donald has been a turnover machine lately, so you know, the Bills are an option. Let's see about the Green Bay Packers. The Packers they host the Dolphins at home. UM, that is also an option. That's an interesting option. UM. So far, though, I like the Bills better just because Sam Donald's been turning it over so much. Let's see those other options

for you. The Washington football team of the Indianapolis Colts, UM, Washington at Tampa. No, I don't like that. That's gonna be a kind of shootout back and forth. And I told you I'm not on Washington right now. Was the other one? The Colt their home against Jacksonville. You know they ain't doing it. Um, give me the Colts. You know, I've liked the Colts as a streaming defense. So that's my answer for you. There strong style of saying Big Ben or Philip Rivers this week, Listen, I've been loving

Philip Rivers. All right, I'm telling you, guys, Philip Rivers against Oakland, give me that all day. The Steelers have a different, uh kind of matchup Thursday night. Caroline is much better defense. Give me Philip Rivers. All right, let's get into it. What I got right? What I got wrong? I told you what I got right. Here's what I got wrong. I gotta acknowledge this to you. Um, Nick Mullins, you put it in my eye. When I was here last Thursday, I was talking about how I wanted the

Oakland defense streaming against them. That I was off, Nick Mullins, I actually changed a pick in one of my pools. I switched from San Francisco Oakland Live here on air. Listen. The kid went sixteen two hund and sixty two yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions in a huge thirty four to three win. They have just announced that he's going to be the starter. He looked like the moment was not too big for him. Um, he put it in my eye.

I got that wrong, all right. The other thing I got wrong, Listen, I was trying to give you, guys, Isaiah crow Well as a DFS player. I did give him as a DFS play. He defecated the mattress on fourteen touches, he only gets a total of fifty two yards. Elijah McGuire is the one, all right, I'm telling you Elijah McGuire. However, seven carries thirty yards, another three catches

thirty seven yards. They're gonna use him in the passing game, and I think the Jets is gonna need that passing game back because Sam Donald putting him in bad spots. Now they're they're down in games. He had another four picks on Sunday for Sam. I am um, the shine is off the rose on the rookie season of Sam Donald as well. I'm still comfortable as a Jets fan that he is the long term answer. He's just taking his rookie bumps and bruises like many rookies do. But I was off on crow L mob Ad. I was

also off on that Washington Atlanta game. I liked Washington. I was part of that crew that was like, Oh atlant is gonna be outside. Oh Washington is a sneaky five and two. They've been doing it. I was wrong. Matt Ryan three hundred fifty yards, four touchdowns outside. I think the Falcons are kind of trying to get right, And I told you from here on in, I think the Washington football team is full gazy. They don't have an offensive line. One of the things. You know, I

was close. I was telling you two guys that I thought it would standing to benefit after the trading deadline. They were Courtland Sutton in Denver and Golladay in Detroit, and something goes three for fifty seven. All right, but Jeff Hireman is taking all these Damerius Thomas kind of looks, and that's a little bit crazy. I'm okay with it, right. I still think he's climbing, but he didn't fully live

up to expectations last week. I acknowledged that. And Golladay listen, six and a rushing yard, right, So I still think they're gonna use that opportunity. But THEO Riddic came back in that scenario, and THEO Riddic caught like seven ball something like that. So I think that's, you know, something's gonna have to contend with and THEO Riddick maybe doing the short passing game role that Golden Tate once had. All right, so let's do this. Let's get into our

waivers for different positions. Okay, at quarterback, I'm telling you right now, Nick Mullins, go right ahead. I'm okay with that if you need him. And I'll tell you why. Because the next two games Nick Mullins has are against the Giants and against Tampa Bay. That's a nice little stretch he can make some hey against those two guys because against those two defenses. So because of that, I'm okay with Nick Mullins in the short term. If you need a short term ad. Let's say, you know, oh,

I don't know. You got DeShawn Watson and Kirk Cousins on by this week, right, that's possible. The other guy I will tell you to look for. And this is a proactive play. I set it at the top of the show that Hawball is saying he's still rolling with Flacco. It might be time for you to get Lamar Jackson on some rosters if you're gonna be in the playoffs. Joe Flacco, I don't think it's gonna be the quarterback

for the Ravens in the playoffs. So you may need to invest now in Lamar Jackson when they're on by before when Hawball is still can that talk about Flacco. Okay, so there are some quarterbacks there on that side, Um, but hopefully you don't need a quarterback right Um, the running back I told you I got not one, not two, but three PPR kind of guys. Here's what I'm talking about. First, only forty percent owned Duke Johnson. Okay. Remember new head,

no head coach, no offensive coordinator. They were going to change, and I wanted to see what it was. The change is that they are getting Duke Johnson involved as a pass catching back. Chubb is gonna still get tote the rock, but Duke Johnson is going to get involved. He called a ton of balls, got in the end zone right now, pick up Duke Johnson. Okay, especially in PPR leaves. Duke Johnson is my number one AD. My number two AD's

Elijah McGuire from the Jets. He outsnapped Isaiah Crowell. Alright, I think Elijah McGuire is gonna be that PPR back similar to Duke Johnson, similar Theo Riddick, who I also have on this list. If you need a PPR back right now, listen, you can be on buy with no Alex Collins, with no Lamar Miller, with no uh you know Lindsay with no Cook or lat Murray, and you can do a lot worse than Elijah McGuire this week. Okay,

in PPR formats, I think he'll be just fine. I told you about theoretic as well, but don't get it to its. I mentioned Mike Davis as well as a guy if Um Carson doesn't go, so keep an eye out on that Carson injury news if he's practicing later on in the week. Don't get it twisted. Also, at running back, you're a couple of guys. Remember I always say, look at the teams who had the by last week.

Maybe someone had to drop someone who is viable because that team was on by and now they're back in action. So I look at Indianapolis and I look at Philadelphia. Here, not hem Hines is owned in only thirty percent of leagues right now. Okay, He's someone you can look at, especially in PPR leagues. You know, Marlon Mack is gonna be that early down guy, but you've seen Hines pop off. Hines is gonna catch some balls as well. Not he Hines is worth Look, he's available in two thirds of leagues.

And then on Philly you want to take a flyer on the kid Josh Adams. Go ahead. I'm okay with that. The reason why because it's about upside, right, like you know what, Mike Davis is gonna be you know, you know what like theoretic and some of these other guys are gonna be. Adams has a chance the upside to grab this role, okay, and then they're not you know, playing musical chairs with guys like Clement and Smallwood and Spoils. When he gets back, there's a chance that they like

this kid Adams out of Notre Dame. If they want him to be the guy, he's got a shot to be the guy. So your your potential value there is a lot better if you invest in Adams. So I think that is okay. All right, let's talk about wide receivers and wide receiver tip. Here's some guys that want to give you. I talked about NDS already. Vale that

Scanling's own in about of leagues. Go get him with Alison going to I R Now this Scanling has been great in the last couple of weeks, and fill in duty for these guys, whether it's cob or Allison MVS is viable. Aaron Rodgers looks his way. Get you some mvs if he is available in your league. Some of the guys though, uh, Tyrell Williams who might be available. Tyrell Williams, who's headed into free agency, is having a nice little year. He is the number two options there

behind Keenan Allen. Keenan Allen had a great game. Keenan Allen. It was nice to see him back into the fold. I know he has been disappointing owners for a long time now this season. But Ty Williams, I think is a guy to own. Okay, so he's only only league's I would go mvs Ty Williams. Let me give you another name. This is off the beaten path. This guy

is only one percent owned. Go to Tampa. Adam Humphries is a guy that I'm okay with you getting in a kind of bye week filling Okay, if you have to fill in, like I have teams where I have DeAndre Hopkins and Stefon Diggs right Mannie Sanders. So I'm losing all those guys this week. I'm gonna need a guy like Adam Humphries and Jameis excuse me, Fitzpatrick is looking his way last couple of weeks, Humphries looks to me like he's almost OpEd over Chris Godwin in the

pecking order. It looks like Godwin is now a little bit touchdown dependent. In my opinion, how'm free is might be a name to know. Okay, so I give you MVS. I give you Tyrell Williams. I gave you MVS. That sounds like something you need to see a doctor about. And if it lasts for longer than four hours, you know, go see a doctor as well. But MVS. I like ty Well Williams. I like Adam Humphries. I like two other names. Listen. One is Maurice Harris. This is gonna

be this is the wide receiver at Washington. That's kind of filling in right there on that role if Richardson goes down. But I don't believe in Harris. Why I told you already. I don't believe in this offense. They just lost three offensive lineman. I think they're gonna be blunt, guts trash. So give me a piece of the more productive offenses. I said that this morning. Give me as

many Saints, Chiefs, Rams, Chargers, Patriots, Eagles as possible. Give me Tyrell Williams as a charger over Maurice Harris as Washington football team player. Okay, because of the size of the pie, the production of that offense. But I'm off him. I can't understand he is being heavily added in a lot of places. Check that James and Crowder injury for that. What are the name? Listen, it's interesting. It's Cordurole Patterson.

Cordaruroll Patterson has been serving as a running back. I wonder if he's ever gonna be r B eligible, to be quite honest. But the reason I don't think it's that is because it looks like my guy, the stereotype Sony Michelle is coming back this week and week ten, and that would rend the Cordole Patterson in his Russian game and complete again. Think about who's coming off by the Cardinals were on by last week. Larry Fitzgerald is

only sevent owned right now. You can get of You can go out and get Larry fitz if that's an option, go do that. Similarly, Christian Kirk is forty percent owned. Okay, so those are other guys to look at real quick. Let me do this. Let me give out the phone number right now, let's take some calls here at the second end. The towards the end of this segment, we'll do more with the stats over beat cipher. In our final segment. The number to call guys three seven, seven,

six seven six six one four. Remember the number of call is three four seven seven six seven six six one four, as we get it popping with the stats over beat cipher. Before we do that, UM, I want to give you some tight ends. I've been mentioning them already. If you want to go Jeff Ihironman deep kind of stashed sleeper, I'm okay with that, but I think you can do better. Herndon the other question was I like him if he's available, but my two guys are gonna

be Jack Doyle and c j Uzma. Boyle is owned in thirty eight percent of leagues USUMA and only twenty three percent of leagues, so I think that is very, very interesting. And remember, if there's no A J. Green, I think defenses are gonna start rolling towards Tyler Boyd. They're gonna need another option to alleviate it. And I think that option is going to be the tight end USUMA. If you want to know the truth, all right, Let's look at some questions here. Um, I got strong, I

said strong Stywhere Sam Asuke? Should I drop Corey Davis, Taylor Gabriel or Alex Collins in a fourth team full PPR? No, Um, I wouldn't drop Corey Davis. What you see out of him, uh, last night is kind of what you get from him, and that's, you know, I think that's okay. I would not drop Gabriel either. To be quite Gabriel might be the one, and Alex Collins, I'm definitely not dropping. That's a starting running back in the NFL. I'm not dropping

him in a fourteen team league. In a fourteen team league, Sam, Uh, starting running back in the NFL is a prize commodity, right, So I'm not dropping Alex Collins, Sam, I'm not really dropping Corey Davis, Tyler Gabriel of those options would be the lowest man on the totem pole for me. And that take this from a guy who owns Taylor Gabriel, But no, I Uh, Gabriel would be the one that I dropped. But I don't necessarily think that is uh needs to be your answer. It's like, who are you

dropping him for? I guess is really what it comes down to. Um, that's that's that's what it That's what it comes down to. Who are you dropping them for? Al Right? Remember the number of call here is three three, four, seven, seven, six, seven six six one four week up to fifty six. Let's get a little bit more. Yeah, buddy, um yeah, Strong Style. You're right, Sony is coming back. All right, Sony is coming back. And that pours a little bit of water for the uh, you know, for the Quardobill

Patterson at running back. Santiago is asking me Marvin Jones or Josh Gordon. Give me Josh Gordon. I'm telling you, I'm taking any piece of these offenses that I possibly possibly can. I understand Marvin Jones has been decent, but I'm trying to grab as much Josh Gordon as possible. Ylarium. It's all about those stereotypes. Yes, Strong Style, this time to hop off Gabriel. That is the way I would go. Drop Doug Chase Brown, drop Doug Baldwin. For Adam Humphriese.

I'm not going that far. Thanks for giving me the frame of reference. Chase. I do like Adam Humphriese. I understand you being down on Doug Baldwin. But I am just not going exactly that far. I think that's a little bit much. All right, um really Perry saying Quardarile Patterson is eligible at both positions in their league, that would be awesome, uh for you, But I don't think that's gonna happen. I do, in fact, think the stereotype

Sony Michelle is coming back. All right, guys, we gotta take a little bit of a break here is we're gonna do. I'm gonna give out the phone number one more time three four seven seven six seven six six one four. When we come back here, we're gonna do I see the callers lighten up. We're gonna take the calls.

Then we're gonna, you know, play a little game of inches and have some fun as we put the fun in Functional Sports Radio here in the Fantasy Freestyle and the Fantasy Sports Radio Network spitting Statistician, Stable Genius, Vocal Minority and the stats over beat Cipher.

Alright, big shout out to everybody out there stuck in traffic on the five. All right, um, let's get it all right, this is where we put the fun and functional sports content. We got some callers out there, Mom, Mobi one canobe mobi wan kenobi Now I get it now. Uh now, man,

Duke Johnson is gonna be a thing. Bro. I'm telling you they it's a new regime there. I was telling everybody there's going to be something different about the offense. Let's see what it is. I think what it is they're going to get Duke Johnson back involved in that passing game. I'm gonna hang my hat on that mobi one canobie. But let's go to the let's go to the phones right now. We kick it off. Oh, we go to someone who maybe stuck in traffic on the five.

Right now, Liz in Cali, you are up first on the Fantasy Freestyle right here with the spitting statistician, stable genius and vocal minority. Dilly dilly to you, how can we help you for week ten and beyond? Liz Hey speech dey dilty, Terry went in the cipher. Um, luckily I'm not stuck in traffic. Okay, that's good. Yeah, I just had a quick question. Um, I have. I don't know if that's just start Big Ben uh this Thursday versus Carolina or fitz Magic versus Redskins. Interesting? Yeah, yeah,

it's standardly well for the quarterback. That doesn't really matter. Um then Thursday and Carolina. Listen. I understand the question, and I understand the concern. Okay about Big Ben got that finger, you got banged up on Sunday. But you know about Ben at home. You know about the home team on Thursday Night football. I just think Ben has been humming lately. I think that Steelers offense has hit their stride, and Fitzpatrick on any given week is gonna

throw you three or four picks. I ride been on this one, Liz. All right, that's where I'm going because I think the Steelers are kind of hitting a groove right now, and I think that they're gonna do okay, even though Caroline is a good squad, them coming on the road on a short week. I give me Ben in Pittsburgh. That's where I'm going. All right, Let's hope it works out for you. Feel free to give me a call next week and let me know how it turned out. Up next on the Fantasy Freestyle, Next caller

is Johnny. Johnny is from Austin. Hey, Austin. Are you a sixth Street kind of guy or a dirty six Street kind of guy? Oh? Speed, do you know where the dirty six type? Yeah, buddy, That's what I'm talking about. Any Oh dude, not much. Hey, first, I want to give a quick shout out. You helped me win two of my three leagues last year. I appreciate nice. I appreciate you, Johnny, and you know I'm sorry I couldn't help you win all three. But that's what this year

is all about. How can we do it? Johnny? You know what, man? Hey, real quick? Just Rob Ground could been a big, big bust um, but I got Jack Doyle. When everybody is down and out, he picked them up the rest of the year. What do you think the rest of the year. You gotta keep both of you. You can't know, you can't, but ahead, Okay, So I have a flex spot. I have a flex do I go to Corey Parson offense going double tight end. So here's what I'm saying, and so so here's you. Here

you go, Johnny. No, I'm not going to Corey Parson double tight end offense. That's not what I'm saying. What I am saying, though, is you've gotta keep both of them in this case, Doyle and Gronk on your roster because you just said it. Gronk has been defecating the mattress and Gronk has these injuries. You don't want to be in a place later on where you lose Gronk and then you're at the bottom of the battle. You

need to keep Doyle as the insurance policy. But I gotta tell you, Johnny, if Gronk is active, you gotta play Gronk. No, I wouldn't go double tight end. I'm keeping Jack Doyle is my insurance policy. If Gronk, you know, misses games. He's missed two of the last three games. Okay, so you gotta like putting oil in there. But if Gronk is active, you gotta go Gronk. Johnny, and thank you for the kind words. I'm glad that we helped you win a little bit of cash. That's what we

do here with the Status over Beat cipher. Here we do on the Fantasy Freestyle, we help you win your leagues and win that cash. And apparently I did that for Johnny down there on Dirty six I would say dilly dilly, But I got this pink drink tonight. I don't know. I gotta do some work on it. I don't know. Maybe this is an an autumnal need. We shall see next up on the Fantasy Freestyle, it's one of the guys who's always on, usually one of the

first callers. We were down to Tampah. Connor, what's going on? Man? You've been telling me about your team and how amazing it is, but you're still catching els and what do we do with these bucks? Things are crazy down there in Tampa. Tell me what your question is. And while you're talking, I'm gonna take a drink. What's up? Connor? What up? Yeah? What to do with? Shoo me over? This year? I went on a six game with this week. After my two win, I'll start, but I finally won

my next game. Back in the mix, do you think I'm what? Are you? Three and six? Yeah? What's your point? It depends on your points, man, Like, Let's put it this way. You're gonna have to get hot. You're gonna have to win out. Okay, if you win out, if you win four in a row and you get to seven and six, I've you've told me your guys before. I remember you have decent players. I'm sure your point total, am I correct, Connor that your point total at three and six is better than some of the four and

five teams. Yeah, my high scoring team in the league. You're the high scoring team in the league. Then no, you're not out of it, brother man. You've just been catching bad luck like people like lew it works. It's really dumb. It's just on the top six team to make it. It's not like the sixth seed on the sixth and the highest scoring team in the league. Yeah, no,

I hear you. That's what you gotta do, though, man, you gotta win out and get to a record that could get you in a tiebreaker for the last spot. I think it's possible, but you've got no room forever, brother man. All right, Connor, at a quick question. What you got tack two? It is, guys, fix so you gotta pay between Doug Baldwin, carry on Johnson, a P

Corey Davis. Al Right, I heard Baldwin, I heard carry on Johnson, I heard a P. Well, the other last two Kenny Golladay and um and Corey Davis is PPR. You said alright, and how many do I need? You need to? All right, it's not a P anymore. Remember I told you I'm worried about a P because the offensive lineman just got eviscerated. So it's not him, it's not Corey Davis, because I think that's like, that's like kind of whole hum for me. Um, give me carry on.

Johnson is one of them. And you know, I want to play the Madonna music so bad. But I'm not gonna give you both lines. I'm gonna give you carry on Johnson and Doug Baldwin. That's where I would go, Connor. I don't think you want to invest too much in the Lions, you know what I mean. I don't want you having both. That's the thing. I don't want you

having both carry on Johnson and Golliday. And then they go ahead and defecate the mattress in Chicago this week, which is possible, and I think if that happens, it would be Golladay. That would be s ol not necessarily kJ. So give me carry on Johnson and Doug Baldwin. All right there, Connor, carry on. On. That's what I'm doing. All right, one more call? We got time for one more call right now. Sam is down there in Georgia. Them Georgia Bulldogs look good stomping Kentucky. They're gonna be

in the sec UH title game. It looks like with Alabama. I hope they roll all over that tide. Sam, what's up with you? Yeah? Man, I'm actually I'm not really a Georgia fan. I'm actually more of a New York fan. Yeah, but that kid, Yeah, let me tell you something. Lijah holy Fields kid is running the ball there and Swift those are future NFL running bags, bro, So get some scouting for fantasy. Yeah. Well, I'm actually a Giants fan, but hope hopefully they get better. All right, So what's

uctually I can help you? I called the live chat about about what I talked about dropping either those players Corey Davis, Taylor Gabriel or out. Oh that was you? Okay, what's up? Yeah? But I had a question about like, well I wanted to drop for is that like I need an extra defense because my Vikings deefen is um down. It's like there on buy So what's available for defense? Is that I want to have? Like because I next this game. I have because I'm six and three and

I'm first placed in my division. And who I'm playing against he's like, um, he's team, he's like an automatically quit Yes, he's Sappers like super And and who the team I have right now is Russell Wilson, Melvin Gort and Kareem Hunt, Thomas, you Ju, Trey Burden more and I have to Viking defense and Gerry And who was available for defense for the Patriots the cold to Jacks or the lines with the thoughts The Jags are available. The Jaguars defense is available. Yes, someone dropped up, so

just take it for the playoffs. Yeah, I mean here's the thing, um, Listen, I think it's Tyler Gabriel for the Jacksonville defense. Because what I was gonna get into with you is like, do you just drop the Minnesota that He's the other thing you could do. You could drop the Minnesota defense for the Jacksonville defense. You know that's another way at it too, because Jacksonville is gonna be Listen, Jacksonville is gonna be a week two weeks starter.

I'm trying to bring up their h I'm trying to bring up their schedule right now so I could see it with you, right, Um, because and then we got to compare that against Minnesota. Right, So listen, Jacksonville, you got indeed this week. I'm alright with that. But listen, you said you would do a good team. Right, So I'm looking at I'm looking at weeks. Listen, look at Jacksonville. I'm looking at the playoffs. Weeks fourteen, fifteen, and sixteen.

Jacksonville has Tennessee. Not a dynamic offense. I ain't worried about playing Tennessee with Jacksonville defense. Week fifteen, Washington, they just lost all their offensive lineman. Not not a dynamic team. Week sixteen, Miami, Please, I think you can ride Jacksonville. The only time you're gonna be worried about Jacksonville from here on in is Week eleven against Pittsburgh. You know, this week against Indianapolis, I'm fine with Week twelve, they

have Buffalo. If you need to push to the playoffs, then Tennessee Washington in Miami on a fantasy playoff schedule, I would consider. Really, if I were you, Sam, I consider just a straight one for one drop Minnesota for Jacksonville unless you really love the Minnesota. Let's look at Minnesota's defense, alright, they're on the by then. But look, Manna, I'm that's the move I would make. I dropp Minnesota

for Jacksonville. Look, week twelve, they got Green Bay. Week thirteen, when you may need a big defensive effort to get into the fantasy playoffs, they are at New England. That ain't gonna be good for the defense, right, and then during the playoffs they see Detroit. Who's another offense that you know it's not the best. I would really consider Sam that one for one move, drop Minnesota and pick up Jacksonville if they're available. Okay, yeah, and one more thing, Yes, Yes,

that's a great point, Sam, Thank you very much. Yes is my answer to your question. And thank you for the call and for Sam and everybody else. If you are ready and you think you're a playoff team and you get as soon as you get through these buys, whatever that means for your team, Okay, If, like for me,

week ten, this week is a bad bye week. Once you're set and stable and you got your squad through the byes, at that moment in time, you need to just like Sam said, you need to start grabbing those handcuffs. The spencer wears the Austin Ekeler's you know whoever it is, the Malcolm Brown's of the world. Okay, I'm okay with

even maybe handcuff and your damn quarterback. At that point in time, you need to drop your fifth or sixth wide receiver, you need to drop that second defense, you need to drop that second tight end, and you need to start organizing yourself for your playoff run. And Sam is absolutely right a lot of that involves getting those handcuffs. So yes, Spencerware is someone you need, Sam if you're a Kareem Hunt owner. Thanks to everybody for the calls. Let me now, let me bringing mom man Danny Auto

down there in the fantasy pit of misery. Big shout out to everyone who's liking the show. I got a lot of like buttons. Also, Danny, before we get too I want to check in on that pole. Thanks to the over two hundred people that have voted in the last hour. Ask you about Levian Bell tweeting farewell Miami, where he's been training and working out, leaving people to believe he's going to Pittsburgh. Of you say, can we

just end this already? Seven percent say boom, I'm on team Connor only seventeen percent of you are happy to welcome back, who, in some leagues was the number one overall pick in fantasy drafts this year. My how we have fallen a Danie Otto? You with me? Brother man, how you feeling? I know you are, and that's why you're one of the best in the business, my friend.

All right, we got some Game of Inches nominees. I want your thoughts on Okay, Danny, Oh, I know you are, um, my man, Fabiano Cordero, he lost or that's the thing. It's his friend. It's not him, So I don't you know, I don't think we're gonna ride with it because his friend ain't getting a road to wear shirt right, But it's got lost by point one, by one tenth of a point. Okay, and his opponent had Kamara, who like short of the very last first down to milk the

clock and end the game. Hashtag game of inches? What do you think about that one? I mean if it was his and yeah, tough, but it was his friend, not him. Yeah, he would be in the running. Have his friend send yeah, hey, Fabiano, tell your friend send me a screenshot, brother man, alright, Dexter, he's one of my hashtag stats over beat Cipher Originals and definitely he lost by one and a half. Okay, he said that

Gordon touchdown was the game winner. From my appointment, from my opponent, he left points on the board, not putting valves, scantling in his flex. I'm like, you just mismanaged it. Not necessarily a game avenges what he's like, I agree with you on that one. All right, check this out. This one I think is bad. MW number six lost by four undredths of a point, not four tenths of a point, four hundreds of a point. Similar we've seen this before, lost because Tom Brady and the kneel downs

at the end of the game. Damn yeah that you've never seen it that close before. Four hundreds of a point? Is that that's possible? It is. I'll tell you exactly how it a second. But that's a nominee hashtag game of inches. Gotta put it right. So here's what they do, Danny. Running backs and road receivers. You know it's ten yards for a point, right, You know this for most and most settings. For quarterbacks it's twenty five yards for a point.

So that means every yard is point oh four. So one passing yard is point oh four m W six with the TV kneel Downs losing by point oh four. Hashtag game of inches in my league, Danny, the team that's in second place, I'm in first place. I'm eating one. You know what. Zoom in on this, by the way, Pop you can, you can zoom in on that is the league. This is my longtime home league. Zoom in on that. Yeah, zoom in on that, baby boy. That's right. Well are we who's in first place? To see how

it's highlighted? Because that's me. That's why I'm eating one. That's my homes you know. The team in second place, bang the thrill of the hunt one by get guess how much that team won by this week, Danny, point oh four one passing yard. Yeah, so that's another game of inches. That's my second place team in my league, that's chasing after me. Just also today traded for Julio Jones, a unicorn out there on the five. That team thrilled the hunt. That's Adam Stolts just traded for Julio Jones.

I'm not pleased about that, um, but I digressed. So that was another hashtag game of inches? What about this one? Mendel Bruce, my man hashtag stats over beat Cipher Mendel Bruce. He won by point one four when his opponent lost a fumble. Aaron Jones lost a fumble, So you know, a winning game of inches. But I say this because Mendel Bruce is facing my man Kenny Cashman in the Andy Singleton Drafting with Giants League and got a w against Kenny cash A big shout out to my man

Mendel Bruce. Last one. Check this out. J J. Brown thirteen fifteen. Danny won by half a point. His opponent got negative one for his kicker. It's a win as that game of inches? How do you feel? I don't know that that four hundreds of a point is still the top, all right? So m W six is our game of inches for week nine. Everybody else hit me up when it comes to week ten, send me the screenshot. Let me know. I gotta finish this drink right here.

Do you have any autumnal means? Hey, Danny Fortnite uniforms, NFL Fortnite Uniforms will talk about it Thursday. We'll talk about Floyd Mayweather's next opponent too. When I'm out, I gotta go vote after this, I halle lujah, Holla back. I'll see you on Thursday. Hit me up at spitt and Speeds, Patreon Statue of Beach. You know what it is. I'm out.
