the Yet Martinez, you know what it is. It should point Dane Martinez, a K A speed t K has it been Statistician And you are listening live to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Big shout out as always two people listening live on I Heart Radio on tune In Radio, watching live on the Fantasy Sports Network YouTube live stream. We got a big time show for you on a Wednesday. I'm gonna mit to you guys, I'm gonna be giving
you my injury reports. I'm gonna be giving you my spotlight games in the NFL season. But I got one eye also on the New York Yankees who have a three nothing lead on the Houston Afials in Game five of the a LCS. So I got my all rides for the judge. We're ready to make it happen. We about to rise as you know, we got my boy Ted Finn Jr. In here in the house. We got the manimal Chris Bophona. He's downstairs on the ones and
tudes keeping it's so hot that we sweat steam. We got allowed to get into I'm also gonna talk a little bit about this Gordon Hayward injury. Okay, like six minutes into the NBA season. It was a darn shame. But then so many people getting critical, you know, taking it as an opportunity to throw some jabs and stuff like that. So I wanted to find out what you guys thought. That's why I put a poll question up for us on Twitter at spitten speaking past, what was
your initial reaction to the Gordon Hayward injury? Do you feel horrible for him? Do you think there's an eight million reasons to feel okay if you're him or is it all just part of the game. I want to know what you think about that. As we keep moving here, dropping stats over beats, I'm gonna be talking about some of the games that I find most intriguing. Four weeks seven,
as always, come Wednesday, we got the practice reports. There are a lot of people that did not practice I'm gonna tell you which ones you need to keep an eye on for the rest of the week to see if they'll be in your lineup for weeks seven of the fantasy football season. And here's the other thing. Yesterday I introduced something the little move that I'm gonna try here on the Fantasy Freestyle. We called it hashtag game of Inches, and once again the Fantasy Freestyle cipher is strong.
I'm gonna tell you some of them big ones that I got that I think we're really heartbreaking and really a hashtag game of inches. We're gonna break that down. Like I said, We're gonna talk about some of the games that I think are really interesting for fantasy in week seven and as we get more updates on this a LCS game, you know, I'm gonna break in and
let you know. Last last night, at the end of the show, if you didn't watch all the way through, we also had breaking news about Ezekiel Elliott and he will in fact be eligible to play for at least week seven and eight. It's hysterical, but there was like a temporary stay because the judge who has to actually decide on this is on vacation, so everybody agonizing over every single hashtag game of inches, yet some people just
do not care about your fantasy team at all. When we come back dropping stats over beats, what we're gonna do is we're gonna get into these uh injury reports and practice reports from the beginning, and I'm gonna tell you about people who had some horrible beats. And then I don't know if you know, but the NFL is going back to London this week and a thriller of a game. We'll talk about that and more as we dropped Stats over beats. It's the Fantasy Freestyle right here
on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Hey, I'm Melissa and I'm Jill, and where the intern. The Fantasy Sports Radio Network and d k MS want to send you to Minnesota this February. All you have to do is play our Big Game Tribute Challenge sponsored by d k MS starting next week. Answer four questions right, and you're heading to the Big Game. Tune in to find out when the contest will be running. So what are you waiting for? Play the Big Game Tribute Challenge sponsored by d KMS,
only on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Hey, you're so damn fine. Though I'm trying to see if I can hit there from a you know what it is. It is the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, which boy Dame Martinez speeds the spitting statistician holding you down on a Wednesday. It's not just any Wednesday. It's not just Waiver Wire Wednesday. It is fedy you up Wednesday. That's why I got my man Chris Bovona on the ones and two so that we blow up
like a Samsung seven. Let me give you some news and notes from around the NFL. First of all, it looks like the Cleveland Browns are going back to Deshaun Kaiser as their starting quarterback. Remember Kaiser was benched last week for Cleveland. It looks like Cleveland is going back to the rookie out of Notre Dame for weeks seven
against Tennessee. Listen, I think it's kind of convenient, Okay, I think it's kind of convenient that they're putting them in there against what is a bad past defense in the Tennessee Titans. You know, I think it's interesting, and I made this kind of analogy on Line Up Block Live earlier earlier today with Tony Sencata, the Tony Sankata. I think it's convenient timing. It's kind of like when baseball teams call like a player's only meeting when they
know they have Clayton Kershaw going the next day. You know, It's kind of like when the head coach, you know, organized as a meeting and says they have a vote of confidence in the team, right when they're about to have a four game homestand against the dregs of the league. You know, you got the Browns going to Tennessee for this game against the Titans, or at home against Tennessee. That's like a good spot for a quarterback, right, and
so they're they're gonna put him in. I think this could be a move to try to build up some of his confidence. I'm also hearing the same thing in Atlanta. They say they want to get Julio Jones involved. Well, yeah, of course you want to get Julio Jones involved. But what better time than when you're at New England against that bad past defense. Right, It's coincidental timing in my opinion.
The Tennessee Titans, who were speaking about right now, they say that quarterback Marcus Mariota got through Monday Night football without any setbacks to that hamstring, so he should be good to go. But speaking of hamstrings on the Titans, to Marco Murray has hamstring, Titaness, you saw him on the sidelines for some of that game. You saw that it was Derrick Henry who actually ran it out with
that long touchdown. And then they're also saying that the running back split that they saw in week six was quote unquote a good model. Okay, they both had thirty nine snaps, but Derrick Henry actually outtouched DeMarco Murray twenty sixteen in that game, and they're saying that's a good model. This could be a real time share going forward, especially if DeMarco Murray is struggling with a hamstring issue. Also, news out of Indianapolis, and I gotta tell you something.
I called this a long time ago. Okay, a long long time ago. Andrew luck has had a setback. He was finally practicing the last couple of weeks. They thought maybe he was gonna play, you know, a week gate, a week nine. No he wasn't. Okay, he had a setback. He's not gonna practice at all this week. I told you a long time ago that I don't think Andrew
Luck is gonna play at all this season. And now I'm here in more and more reports, more and more experts and analysts are coming around saying the same thing that I told you months ago, I don't think Andrew Luck is going to play at all this season. And also check this out, Jacoby bri said, I said this yesterday.
He looked serviceable. So if you have that at the quarterback position, and also the Cults in the next couple of games, what if they're two and seven, why would you try to have Andrew Luck come back behind that offensive line for a lost season. I'm telling you Andrew Luck I don't think is going to play at all this season. All right now, it is Wednesday. It's fettie Wop Wednesday, It's waiver wire Wednesday. And I also it's practice reports. Okay, there are a lot of practice reports.
I'm gonna tell you all the people that were practicing that we're limited that did not practice. But remember remember what you need to see. This is just the baseline. You gotta see if they are trending in the right direction as it relates to Thursday's practice, as it relates to Friday's practice. Okay, here are the people that are not practicing. Leonard Fournette didn't go for the Jags because of that ankle. I think this is definitely one to watch. They are riding him and the Jags have a by
next week. I could see Chris Ivory getting the lion's share of the work this Sunday to try and give Leonard four Nette a little bit time to recuperate. Keep an eye on LETTERD. Fournett, the stud rookie out of l s U and that ankle. Also, Marquis did not practice of the Jags in that knee. But you're not really riding with anybody in this Jaguars passing game anyway. Remember Blake Bortles has now won two games for the
jagu Bars this year, completing under ten passes. So why would you want a Lee or Hearns or anybody in that passing game. Davante Parker did not practice with that ankle injury that kept him out last week. They have the Jets this week. If he can't go, that's a big time boost to Jarvis Landry. Terence West did not practice. He's looking at a multi week calf injury. It looks like it's gonna be Alex Collins and of course Buck Allen there in Baltimore, da Marius Thomas did not practice
with a leg injury. We've already talked about many Sanders also being banged up, and he might miss the next couple of games. So could that mean maybe more opportunity for a guy like Benny Fowler. I mentioned him on yesterday's show. He was only like one or two percent owned. If you need a wide receiver, Benny Fowler might be a guy, especially if Damarrius Thomas can't go. My man, Stephen, can you dude, digs In? It's still not practicing with
that groin. He missed all of last week, did not play last week, and this is something he's dealt with before. I actually think he's gonna start trending in the right direction. They're just given him every day possible. Let's see if he at least gets in limited work later on in the week. Kelvin Benjamin did not practice for Carolina today that because of a knee injury. I think that's just a maintenance day for him. Personally. I think k B will be fine. My guy, Boom boom, melal pal pal
He did not practice for the Jets today. He's still got that calf injury of his own. Remember, Matt Forte is kind of getting back in there. We talked about Elijah McGuire for a couple of weeks, but this is gonna be Forte if he is back and out it Also for the Jets, Robby Anderson didn't practice because of the hammy and as I mentioned before, DeMarco Murray struggling with that hamstring injury. I think this has entered Derrick Henry.
Hopefully you will listening to the Monday Night show here of the Fantasy Freestyle, where I told you you always want to make a speculative ad on some of the guys on Monday Night Football, and I told you Derrick Henry, who was owned at that point in time and something like sixty six of the league's would have been a great option. If you listen to me, you now have an asset moving forward. Here are some guys that were
limited might be round up being questionable. Jamis Winston's still not throwing, but just the fact that he got any working that's a good sign. They have not signed anybody from the practice squad either, so maybe Jamis Winston will be able to go for Tampa Bay Sterling Shepherd practice. Remember I told you he was a great specular of ad as well, because when he eventually does come back, he will be Eli Mannings number one target. He was limited in practice with that ankle. Paul Perkins was back
at practice, albeit in limited fashion with those ribs. They're saying he could even be a healthy scratch. You know, Paul Perkins has not been able to do it. They wanted him to be the starter. It has not happened. They've given Wayne Gallman a shot, They've given Orleans dark Boy shot. Both of them look like they've performed better than Paul Perkins. Paul Perkins could be on the outside looking in if you have him in your league, and you shouldn't at this point, it's okay to drop him
in the rest of the trash. Chris Hogan also a wide receiver from New England. He did not. He was limited in practice with um that rib issue that he sustained in the game against the Jets. That could be a maintenance time for him. I think he's gonna wind up being okay. Remember they are Sunday night at home against the Atlanta Falcons. A couple of people back at practice that I think is good. I talked to you about Marcus Mariota already, but like this out Jordan Matthews
was cleared for practice. He had that thumb surgergery a couple of weeks ago, and if he is back, I think that's a big time help for t Mobile, Tyrod Taylor and also Lashawn McCoy and could be freeing up some space for a guy like Lashawn McCoy. Jeremy Macklin back practicing, and of course Mohammed Sunu is also back. It's a new day for Mohammed Sanu. He is back practicing. He had that hamstring injury. And if he is back, you need to drop Tyler Gabriel and also my guy
Austin who who hooper may have limited opportunity. If Mohammed Sanu, it's a new day is back for Atlanta. I'm gonna start using that one. I kind of like it. All right, let's keep it going. I told you yesterday to give me your hashtag game game of inches, and once again y'all responded. I love my crew, my cipher out there at spitting speeds, hitting me up on Twitter, hitting me up on the YouTube stream, I got a couple and uh, Chris in the studio, I want to find out from you,
which do you think is the worst? Okay, first of all, Carl Anderson at Candy Shop four oh seven showed me an image of someone who had Ryan suck up. Right, his opponent had Ryan suck up. He won not because of like that Derrick Henry long touchdown on at the end, but on the extra point afterwards and one by less or lost by less than a point. I think that is a hashtag game of inches. Uh my man j D at Blanchard Buzz he uh lost by five. But
the thing is he had Austin Safarian Jenkins. So if you had Austin Safarian Jenkins, you thought you had a touchdown plus six, Then all of a sudden they take the touchdown off the board and you get a fumble. That's an eight point swing. Hashtag game of inches? Or is my man uh Bryce Petty or be underscore Petty At swag on Point on Twitter, he had a tie one eleven to one eleven. There were no fractional points. Okay,
he had a tie. He also had Austin Safari and Jenkins, so could have had a touchdown, lost some points with the fumble, and would up tying one even one eleven, And it turns out the tie breaker in his league then his quarterback point and his quarterback was Jamis Winston, who, as you know, did not finish the game. So that's a pretty uh, that's a pretty bad beat right there. And then f f end there is my final one f underscore and there he lost by point oh seven
that is less than a yard. Officially a hashtag game of inches, Chris, I want to find out what you think was the worst so we could declare a winner for our first ever hashtag game of inches. Will do that right after the break. Will also open up the phone lines, you know the number at eight four four, eight four three six eight seven nine. As massa Hero Tanaka looks to get through his six scoreless in the
Yankees now have a four nothing lead. I don't know if it's gonna be a scoreless I might have just jinxed them. No flyball caught in center field. Massa Hero Tanaka gets through six. The Yankees have a four nothing lead in Game five of the LCS. Phone lines will be open, but we'll talk about my spotlight games. For week seven, we come back dropping statisical beats.

Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on a Fetty Whop Wednesday, It's day Martinez Speeds the spitting Statistician. We're holding you down, Hey, Chris Um. A couple of people you know, had to make the time hashtag Game of inches. I told you about some of the contenders
that I saw on my Twitter timeline. Okay, we had some people with the Ryan scut up extra point, a couple of people who got banged out by the Austin Safarian Jenkins what should have been touchdown and got called as a fumble, and one guy who lost by less than a tenth of a point at only point oh seven. Let me ask you, uh, who do you think was the worst beat hashtag game of inches? Chris I hate Ties. I hate him, I hate him, and I specially hate him in fantasy sports. Give me that one fair enough.
That is a tie. The guy with the tie that was be underscore petty at swag on point on Twitter had Austin the Safarian Jenkins wound up tied one eleven to one eleven, and then the tie breaker apparently in this guy's league settings is to go to the quarterback point. Unfortunately, his quarterback for the day was Jamis Winston, who left the game early. That is a tough loss. Every Tuesday, we're gonna do this hashtag game of innges. I'm gonna
shout out the winner or I guess the loser. I guess um, And already people are excited about Carl Anderson at Candy Shop four oh seven already hit me up being like that. He's getting happy that he got a shout out for hashtag. Game of interest is. We're gonna keep that up because the cipher is strong right here on the Fantasy Freestyle. It's so strong that the phone lines are already lit up. So I want to go to them now, because the thing we do here is we gotta take care of you so you can win
your leagues and win that cash. I wanted to talk about the London game. I'm gonna do that in the next segment, but let me first get to our callers, because the phone lines are already lit up. It's the number of call is eight four four eight four three six eight seven nine. I'll be ready to go, helping you out and also helping you all rise for the judge if he ever comes back up yanks up for nothing in the sixth and Game five of the a LCS. But we open up the phone lines and first up
is Joe in San Diago. It's like a whales poom poom, Hey Joe, how can I help you out on the fantasy freestyle with dropping stats over beats. Hey man, So I gotta I got a quick question because all these injuries kill you right now. So, um, I don't know what to do with Martavis, Brian DeVante park their number five and six and my wide receivers, and I'm getting frustratated. I got my bye weeks coming up in week nine and I'm just and then I got Andrew Luck to like, well,
let me tell you something, Joe. I'm gonna tell you right now. I don't think Andrew Luck is playing this season. I don't think Andrew Luck is playing this season, Joe. I said it at the top of the show. He had a little bit of a setback. Jacoby Brissette has been serviceable and if the culture too and seven twin eight, why would he come back? You know? So, I think you could cut bait on Andrew Luck. I know it
sounds crazy, but I think you can do that. I know it feels back because you've been stashing them this long. Davante Parker, I keep Joe Martavis Bryant, I think uh is kind of uh. You could cast him aside because he is not playing well in the Sandbox. I gotta tell you something, Bartavis Bryant, I think they're moving on from him into the Juju Smith Schusters of the world. Bough.
But what's your other question? Um? Well, the other question was since I had a feeling even to say, drop Marktevis, So, how how do you feel about Corey Davis coming? Yeah? I like that, I like that, I like I like Corey Davis. The skill set is definitely there, and I think that that offense is gonna look a lot different when he's there. Remember you saw what Eric Decker did on Monday Night Football. I believe that's what Corey Davis is going to do on a week to week basis
when he is out. Yes, I'm telling you right now, I am comfortable with you dropping Martavis Bryant for Corey Davis. And thanks for the call out there Joe in San Diego. I got a couple of people out there in Coronado. I might have to tell you to wave hello to them for me next time I talk to you. Next up on the Fantasy Freestyle is Paul e t out there in Westchester. Paul e t Is called the show before. I hope you felt help him out. I hope he's doing good. A paul E t how did week six
treat you? You're dropping stats over beats on the fantasy freestyle. We six was not so great. But you know, I'm gonna league right now, all in the hunt, so you know, it's just that few together, a few wins to get into the playoffs, and I think I'll be okay fair enough. But like all, um nursing injured Ben Schwist And one of the thoughts I was thinking was your thoughts on UM following the day today for our net And Um, I'm thinking Chris Irey is gonna make it. And I
feel about UM dropping Terrell Prior. Yeah, I'm okay with dropping Terrell Prior. Also the's Washington football guys. Um, I'm okay with dropping him. I'm okay with dropping Tarrell Prior. I'm okay with dropping Rob Kelly. They're running back if you have him on your roster, anybody who's out there, Yes, Paulie, I am okay with dropping Terrell Prior. And here's the other reason. I mean, you know what, you have him
on your team. He hasn't done much of anything, but the thing that bothers me the most I'm hearing that they are talking about trying to explicitly get Josh docks Is more involved. He's another wide receiver, second third year guy out of TCU, and they're gonna look to try to get him involved more. Okay, and he's another one of those big guys, okay, that target that end zone,
red zone kind of guy. I think he If they do grow an opportunity for Josh Dockson, I think that hurts Terrell Prior even more because Jamison Crowd of their other wide receiver, is you know, more of a kind of like shifty guy. Right, So I think the increase of dots in really hurts Terrell Prior. So yes, I would.
If you have four net and you're and you're and you're worried if he doesn't go this week and you really need to win on a week to week basis for your playoff push, yes I would handcuff him with Chris Ivory. And I'm okay with you dropping Terrell prior to do s do. So thanks for the call, PAULI out there in Westchester. Next up, another person that has been on the show before. Let's see how he's doing. It's Stephen Massachusetts. You're dropping stats over beats with speeds
was good? Hey man, doing all right? Judgment by your tone, you're doing all right too. Well. I'm still on the playoffs record good. I'm I'm two and four, but you're two and four and still in the playoffs. Yeah, because it's it's a ten team league, and with the manager set up, it was between like the top six guys
can get in. I'm not, but I'm not. I'm just like pretty much at the end and like that, there's only like three guys that are there are probably by like above five hundred, above five hundred right now, so pretty much everybody else is like it's like like I'm one game out from even like jumping from like six to maybe even like three or four. All right, so let's help you get a win for week seven? How can I help you? Steve? Alright? So I had to.
I had two questions, and the first one it was about Calvin Mendment, because I remember you said that, uh, he wasn't practicing. We thought that he'd be good to go. But what I got like an update saying that he left. I guess like he was trying to practice, but he left practice because of his knee, and I want to know if I should just like keep an eye on that and if he can't go, maybe I should try to, like, uh grab like a Chris Chris Ivory if uh if
I have like the extra bench spot to pick him up. Yeah, Steve, I would not cut bait on Calvin Benjamin. Okay, I understand that he left practice or miss practice today, that knee is barking at him. But that's the thing here. Okay, this is just Wednesday. It's early in the week, and a lot of these guys who miss practice on Wednesday. Check tomorrow and watch you see him get in what they call a limited practice on Thursday and again then
maybe a full practice on Friday. Of the guys I told you that it did not practice today, Kelvilvin Benjamin is one that I'm not actually worried about. I think Calvin Benjamin is gonna be fine. And Steve, you don't want to drop Calvin Benjamin. Okay, even if he doesn't go this week, you want to ride out with him on a week to week basis. I don't think I would not take a guy like an Ivory over a guy like Calvin Benjamin. You're just gonna have to deal
with it. Unfortunately, Steve, and so many people are dealing with injuries right now. You're not alone, but Kelvin Benjamin is someone that I would ride with and just check the practice reports. Tune into the Fantasy Freestyle for the rest of the week and I will certainly update you on the status of Kelvin Benjamin. But thanks for the call, as always, Steve. Next up on the Fantasy Freestyle, we
go down to Texas. Hey, Dylan, I don't know if you're an Astros fan, but my Yankees are doing what they could do at home up for nothing in Game five. They may send a series back down to Houston, only one way away from the World Series. But then again, you might not even be an Astros fan, Dylan, So let's keep it moving here on the Fantasy Freestyle. How can I help you for Week seven? Hey? But thanks
taking my call. Uh not much of a baseball fan, but uh I got a trade QUI or roster kind of construction, and uh I got two heavy hitters that running back it's a fourteen team PPR. I got Girley and Bell at my running back. But while receivers kind of week got Garson Martavis Bryant DeVante Parker as my three top Uh. I got Russell Wilson at QUB, so I'm set there too. I'm just wondering what can I do to improve my receiver situation? Uh? And also at tied end, I have George Kittle. What do you think
about George Kittle? Yeah, Yo, let me tell you something, Tilling. I'm gonna try and take him one at a time. First of all, Dylan, I love George Kittle moving forward. Okay, I love George Kittle moving forward. This is something I wanted to say. Um, I think when the forty nine is moved to the young quarterback c J. Bethard, Um, that is great for George Kittle. And here's why, Dylan, I'm about to give you a good bit nugget of information. Okay.
C J. Bethard is their rookie quarterback. He's out of Iowa. You know where George Kittle went to school, also Iowa. These guys were teammates in college. Okay. So, so I think when going gets tough, he's gonna look for a security blanket, and that's George Kittle. So I really like that. I will say this though, Dylan, your wide receiver. UH position is a problem. You know, Davante Parker is out.
You know Martavis Bryant hasn't really been doing it for you, Okay, So what I would do is I would try to trade Martevis Bryant to anybody right now who still thinks he has some name value and can still really pop off. I would try to trade. I would try to trade Martevis Brian if I could. If not, you need to hit the wave a wire and try to find another wide receiver. Here's the other thing you need you could do,
and I know you're not gonna like it. You might have to start to dangle a guy like Todd Gurley in trade. You might have to try to do a two for two kind of thing right where you trade Todd Gurley and Martavis Bryant and what you get back is a much better wide receiver and a slightly less
good running back because you still will have Levy on Bell. Right. So, if you traded Todd Gurley and Martavis Bryant and you could get back a wide receiver like an Adam Feeling to help you out, then you might have to drop down from a Todd Gurley to more of a real RB two. You may have to deal from your position of strength because I think Briant and especially park A while injured is going to be a problem. But what's not a problem is the collaboration we're doing with d
k MS to help fight blood cancer. I've been telling you every day, so you already know what it is, but you should go onto the website learn how you could fight help to fight against blood cancer. Maybe become a blood donor, maybe become a bone marrow donor. We also got free entries into DFS contest. You could win tickets for two two Super Bowl fifty two. The phone lines are still going on. I see you Armando, I see you Tray, I see you Benny and as always
my man Taco Embama. We're gonn to get to your calls when we come back, and then I'm gonna tell you my take on the London game as well. We're dropping statue over beats with speeds. Let's go.

We're gonna be hashtag drop stats over beat. Hey, Chris, the Manimal Bovona is keeping it so hot that we sweat steam. Chris, I just got a shout out on my Twitter timeline
for those what they call fire beats coming. So you're doing big things, Chris bona manimal two right, and I really love the fact that we just had that. If you listen to on Fantasy Sports Radio Network, we just had that Aaron Judge intro All Rise for the Judge as the Yankees look to take Game five of the a LCS and go down to Houston up three games to two. I see you guys on the phone lines real quick though. Before we get to that, I want
to tell you my take on this London game. They're playing a game that's Sunday night football out there in London, so it's going in the one o'clock Eastern time window in the early games here on Week seven. It's the Cardinals and Rams. And let me tell you something. Weird things always happen in this London game, right. And you know how I talk about to travel and all this, well that's what it's East Coast teams going across the pond. These are now two teams from the NFC West that
are traveling across Okay. Arizona was home last week for Tampa. They're na flying from Arizona to London. That is a very long flight. And the Rams, they were at Jacksonville, they did not go home and went straight from Jacksonville to London. I gotta tell you something. I think some weird things are going to happen. I want to target two players. The first is Adrian Peterson. I know everybody loves Adrian Peterson off of what he did last week. I'm gonna tell you the truth. I'm still not buying
Adrian Peterson. Okay, listen, this guy had one good game, all right. Remember he was not doing it all season long with the Saints the year before that with Minnesota. I think that this was was kind of like uh rookie luck, shall we say, in his first game. Okay, I understand the Rams are another ad run defense, but he did it against Tampa, which was a very bad run defense. I think as teams start to adjust and understand what the Cardinals are trying to do with a
p they will be able to stop. And remember, this guy is also an older back. I don't know if he's gonna stand up to the wear and tear and the fact that they have a London game just hurt. You know what I think about this travel and the layoff that happens after that. I am fading Adrian Peterson if you have him on your team. I believe did his time to sell high on Adrian Peterson. I'm telling
you right now. The other person that I think is big time that you need to know about in this game is Robert Woods Okay, listen, I've been talking about it all year. Patrick Peterson has taken away the number one receiver that he's been facing all season long this week. Okay, um, that would be Sammy Watkins hasn't really been doing it at all anyway. But the other wide receivers facing the Cardinals have really blown up. And I've told you how
I like that. Jared Goff is starting to be one of these or get some better than the parts kind of offense. He's going to Robert Woods, He's going to Cooper Cup, He's going to Todd Gurley. I think Robert Woods is a very interesting DFS play. When I give you my DFS lineup on Friday, you may see Robert Woods in it. I think Robert Woods and Cooper Cup are gonna be the guys that eat in this London game. I like the Rams in this game. I like the Rams to stay in the lead of the NFC West.
I like the Rams to win this game. And I think there will be a bunch of points scored in this game. Okay, we're gonna keep it moving. It is, in fact, the second trip to London for Adrian Peterson. Think about that as well, because he was on the Saints. They went out there, a lot of travel for a p getting up there there in years. I don't know if he's gonna withstand the wear and tear. I'm fading Adrian Peterson to me. He's a fantasy freestyle food gazy.
But all right, let's go back to the phones, because we got a couple of people still on the line trying to get help from speeds to spending statistician. Let's go to Armando in San Diego. I can call from San Diego today. Armando, you're on the line with speeds, were dropping stats over beats. What's good with you? Bro? You know what's I got some I gotta tread off today. The Amari Cooper owner offered me Amory for Michael Crabtree and um my other two wide receivers at t Y
Hilton and Mike Evans. So I got a nice bass with Crabtree and Hilton. I'm sorry with Evans and crab Tree. So Ty would be my heavy hitter, and now Andrew Luck might be out for the rest of the season. Trade Cooper for for a crab Tree. I like crab Tree much better than Cooper. I've been saying that all season long. This was a called shot of mine. I said this before the season ever started. I said that crab Tree will outproduce Cooper. He actually has, like in
the last last year as well. I like Michael Crabtree much better than Amari Cooper, Armando. So if you're getting Crabtree, then yeah, but it sounds like, are you getting Crabtree or getting Cooper? I'm sorry, um no, it would be getting Cooper. I'd be trading away Crabtree. But I still have those two heavy hitters and t Y and Mike Evans. It's just that big name that now I don't do it. Don't do it. This guy is trying to trick you. This guy is trying to trick you on just that
the name value. Don't do it, Armando, Like you said, you have t Y Hilton, you have some other guys that are okay, that are gonna be able to hold you down. You need the consistency that Michael Crabtree offers. You see it, Okay when he's healthy, he's the one who's actually the target for Mr. Carr. I like crab Tree much better than Cooper. Armando. I wouldn't do it, but you know, hey, take it with a grain of salt. Trust your gun. If you want to go against the
spin stat decision, that is okay with me. I think it is Crabtree greater than sign Amari Cooper. Let's keep it moving. We we got Trey. Trey is out there in Memphis where the Grindhouse opens tonight. Trey for your Memphis Grizzlies. I think it might be a long season for them, but it sounds like you have some big time quarterback issues. Let me try to help you out for week seven trade. What's going on? Yo? What's up? Brother man? First time column man, Georgia inside man. I
appreciate it anytime. You're always welcome. How could I help? Yo? Uh? I got uh Stafford and Watson right, both of them on the bid. So I'm looking for Yeah, So I'm looking for a good little stream uh ty Rod Jared Golf, you know, like which one? And also I got another question to um, I'm trying to jump ahead of the curve. You know, Larry just had a couple of big games,
you know, just last week. Uh, Larry fit And so I'm I got did Brian Michael Crabtree, Davante Parker, and I picked up Stirling, as you said, you know, doing one of the little little inside pick ups. But I'm looking to trade Laris to get kind of you no more solid than while I receiver? Should I Should I trade him high? You know what I'm saying? And what kind of tears should I get for him? Um? Thanks for the call, Tray. I'm gonna tell you this. You know,
and and and and try. I'm not saying you, but a lot of people are hitting me up on Twitter and they're talking about trades that they want to admit. They want to make trades. They want to make trades. Risk this urge to over tinker. Okay, you have a decent white out group. It sounds like trade between Fits and Dez some of the others you're gonna have, Shephard coming back. I would stay put, Okay. I would not trade Fits. I'd be happy with the production that Fits
gives you. Okay, I wouldn't worry about trading him. Now onto your quarterback issue, Trey. It sounds like the two guys you want me to talk about our Tyrod Taylor and then Jared Goff. Right, Tyrod Taylor and Jared Goff seemed to be the two people that you're thinking about. Now, let me tell you something. I I hate to say this. I think both of them are decent plays. I gotta tell you the truth. I think both of them are decent plays. And the reason is because I like both
of the matchups. Tyrod Taylor is up against Tampa Bay. You saw what the Cardinals did against Tampa Bay last week, so I think that's good. But then there's Arizona, and Arizona has been giving it up a lot. So you know what I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go against conventional wisdom here of the two. But Tyrod could get you
some running yards too. That's a tough one, man. You know what, Give me Tyrod Taylor against this Tampa Bay past defense that has been carved up on a weekly basis, and the tie baker for me, because these guys are both pretty close for me this week, I have one ranked number fourteen and I have the other wrank number sixteen. But give me Tyrod. And the reason is because I think he can get you a little bit of production in the run game as well. And that's something you
could rely on. Tyrod not turning the ball over even though he has no kind of weapons you gotta hope he hits up Shady McCoy in the past game. That's where I would go. I'd go with my man t Mobile Tyrod Taylor, but Tray, no reason for you to try to flip fits. At this point, we next go to my good friend, the friend did the show. It is Taco in Alabama, Taco Obama. What's going on? Which
how can we help? I'm doing good man? Uh, just I'm thinking about next week already, okay, and I'm wondering my Yeah, I'm gonna league, and my quarterbacks are Kirk Cousins and Mariota, and I have Golf on the bench, so golf and Mariota does have by next week. And I'm looking at what I've got and I actually I dropped Brissette today, uh to pick up Corey Davis. And so I'm looking should I should I trust Brissette next week against Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a decent past defense. Cincinnati
is a decent past defense. We'll see. My my running backs are right now. I've got Zeke Freeman uh time on and Kareem Hunt. And I'm wondering if I should maybe trade one of those, uh for you know, a decent quarterback next week. So here's what you could do. What you could also do, Taco is you could look, you know, everybody's got bye week issues, injury issues. You could look to a team that has their quarterbacks on by this week. Look at the team that owns Matthew Stafford,
they're on a bye this week. Look at the team that owns Deshaun Watson, they're on a bye this week. Look at the team that owns Jamis Winston who is banged up, and maybe go this week. You could maybe trade to Jared Goff to them right and get this kind of and get something back right and get get back maybe uh a lower level quarterback or you know, someone to help you at the running back position. What you could do is look to trade Jared Goff or Mariota.
To be quiet honest, but I like Mariota over Goff. I would look to trade Jared Goff to the owner that has either Stafford or or Watson that are on by, or Jamis Winston who's pretty banged up right now, or any of these other quarterback situations where they've made a change. They're gonna be thirsty for a quarterback. They're gonna see that you have three to deal with and you may be able to make a trade right there. Okay, Taco, but thanks for the call. As always, you're always welcome
on the show. Last call for the day, we got Benny and Georgia. Hey, Benny, you're on the Fantasy re stop. But get your question out real quick. I may have to answer it after the break, Benny, what's going on? All right? So right now, I pretty much lost last week because of my running backs, because I've benched Derrick Henry and started de Marco. That's fine, but what's your question? We're up against the break. I gotta hear it. I have DeMarco, Rob Kelly and Derrick Henry and Mike Gillessly.
Who should I start? DeMarco Murray, Rob Kelly say it again real quick? Uh, Mike Gillessly and Derrick Henry and Derrick Henry. All right, after the break, I'm gonna tell you how I rank these four running backs for Benny, and then we're gonna see if Chris Venture has any YouTube questions for us. And I'm gonna keep Tad's on our pole and on a LCS game five. We got a lot to do and only four minutes left as we dropped stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle on
the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Pre styled, I called this a long time ago. Andrew Luck has had a step. He was finally pracked to saying the last couple of weeks they thought maybe he was gonna play, you know, a week gate, a week nine. No he wasn't. I told you a long time ago that I don't think Andrew Luck is gonna play at all this season. I don't think Andrew Luck is going to play at all this season. Why would you try to have Andrew Luck come back behind that offensive line for a lost season?
Week days from seven to eight p m. Eastern on the Pantas Sports Radio Network. Welcome back to the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. When we went to break, I had a question from Benny down there in Georgia. Benny, let me tell you something. Okay, if you're still listening, I think health will determine this for you. Okay. Um, if if if Rob Kelly is back playing, then he's viable. But I don't know if he's practicing this week. Same with Marco Murray and that
hamstring that bothers me a little bit. Okay. The way I would rank these guys as de Marco Murray is your obvious number one, but if he can't go, then you gotta put Derrick Henry in there. Okay, So I'd say, I I think Derek, I think DeMarco Murray is in some trouble. So I like Derrick Henry and I like Rob Kelly. I'm down on MIKEA. Gilles Lee. I think he's touchdown dependent. You know, if I have him on your roster, you know it's all about if he gets
the touchdown. He got three touchdowns in week one, but after that it's like, you know, twelve carries forty seven yards, eleven carries for fifty three yards, and that's not gonna get it done unless he gets in the end zone. He's touchdown dependent. Give me whichever Titans running back starts, and then hopefully Rob Kelly if he starts as well. But as I promised you guys, it's not only on the phone lines. I want to hit you guys up. If you holler at me on YouTube, okay, and if
you're watch it on YouTube, hit that like button. It's right there. Okay, Tell a friend to tell a friend about your boy speeds. The spitting statistician. Hey, Ventra, we got anything good on YouTube that I can help people out with? What do we got? Yeah? I got you, I got you. So first one we got is a trade question. Should I trade DeShawn Watson, war Terrell Priyat and my boy Dougie Fresh Doug Martin. No, absolutely not, come from absolutely not, absolutely not. Deshaun Watson has been
killing it. And and who's that running back? You said? Because I'm down on whoever that running back is. I think Doug Martin. Oh no, No, I like Douggie. I like Douggie. I think he's a real RB two. But DeShawn Watson, Deshaun Watson is I can't believe I'm saying this. He's like a top five quarterbacks. Moving forward, Okay, we got one more. We got time for one more. Yeah, here's a good one. Uh he needs to and one flex from these four Christian McCaffrey, Joe Mixon, Chris Thompson
and Derrick Henry. This is standard scoring, he said, he's six and oh too. Oh that's a great record. We all wish we were six and oh. Because it is standard scoring. The one that does not get in there is Chris Thompson. That's my That's that's what I would say. What do you think, Ventra, Yeah, i'd say the same. If you said just to pick two, I think I might go Derrick Henry and even I might even stick
with McCaffrey with that. Yeah, I would go McCaffrey then then Henry, then Mixing, especially if we get news that DeMarco Murray is in trouble with that hamstring. Thanks a lot, Chris. We appreciate it. We're gonna talk to you late tomorrow's show giving me those questions from YouTube. We definitely love it. As you know, we also we gotta pull on Twitter. We gotta pull on Twitter right now. I was asking you about the Gordon Hayward injury and how you felt,
you know, kind of about it. Did you feel really bad for him or were you like, hey, he's got on eight million dollars, it's all good, he'll be I or is it like a kind of thing like, yeah, you don't. You can't feel bad get whatever, because yo, injuries is all part of the game. Seven one of you stay that you feel really bad for him. Only eleven percent say that, hey, there's a hundred twenty eight million reasons to be okay, eighteen percent of you say
it's all part of the game. Listen. I you know, first of all, he's on Boston and as you guys know, I'm in New Yorker, right, so you know it's gonna be hard for me to feel bad for the Celtics. But you do gotta feel for him. You do gotta feel for him. I think it was horrible. I think it puts a damper a little bit on opening weekend. Remember, they're not gonna have Isaiah Thomas back. Um, she's uh, the Isaiah's in Cleveland. He won't be back until January. Now,
Gordon Hayward won't be back for the Celtics. You know, I want to see the players play. They even you know, extended the season and stretched it out so there's less back to back. It's because fans want to see the players play, and unfortunately, um, that's not gonna happen for Gordon Hayward. For a long time, it definitely looked like a big time injury. As we are about to get out of here, I gotta tell you, the Yankees are putting it on right. That is uh, is El Gaddi.
Gary Sanchez goes yard into the bleachers, all rise for the judge. The New York Yankees. They got a big lead in Game five, but it is never over. Okay, but it's never over. It is five nothing in the seventh Obama Yankees, like my man Mariano Duncan used to say,
we played today, we win today. Nah seat okay, and that's what we're gonna try and do here tomorrow on the Fantasy Freetyle, I'll tell you more about some of the games that I'm interested in for weeks seven, and we're gonna drop stats over beats with the cipher right here by the Fantasy Freestyle with your boy Dame Martinez speeds and spitting STATISTICI and I'm out see y'all tomorrow
