Hey, I am proud of you, Jamie! You put in some work this week, Shakir should have a big game, and you posted all the right reasons for it. Kudos to you.
Holy smokes! I usually give you a hard time, Jamie, but I think this week you’re gonna have a massive breakout week with your calls, you are right on point
Still waiting to hear more viable reasons why Garrett Wilson has struggled... To me, it seems like him & Rodgers just don't have a good connection rn for some reason. Rodgers has missed him on some throws this year. Maybe Rodger's deep ball has lost some touch or perhaps Rodgers is still kind of rusty? Or could it be that Wilson really just isn't as good as we all thought? Would love to hear some more discussion on this as it's a fascinating topic!
JAMEY: Gotta disagree with you on the concept of not being able to bench certain guys you drafted high. Right now that would be guys such as G Wilson and you mentioned others but i'll use Wilson as an example. You certainly CAN bench guys like G Wilson as that's what i've done early on here and it's paid off and allowed me to win at least one week by not starting him. I yes, did draft Wilson with my 2nd round pick. But i still despite Rodgers had my doubts as to TDs and overall Jets offense. But once i had confirmed that at least early on so far that Jets O was still going to be iffy (which it has been) for the most part, and with other teams D's focused so much on Wilson and the Jets we all know like running the football....... So well, it's not like i'm dropping him. You put him out there in high upside offers and other teams refuse and that's fine....at some point if the Jets O gels better which it could and they face worse CBs and Ds, at that time i suspect i'll be happy to have Wilson most if not all weeks. But until the motor is up and running, why? Much respect to Jamey of course, but why stubbornly go with "just 'cause. i drafted him high. period?" Why? Again, sunk costs. If you can get a trade you'll not regret even if Wilson comes alive and the Jets O comes alive, do it. If not fine, he'll heat up, Rodgers is there (which is why i took the chance, along with i fell a bit too much for the pre-season rankings even though i felt this way about him. But then again, really what matters? If i make the playoffs and Wilson is great late in the year i'll be happy i drafted him. Sure, one would like to be able to insert the player into that lineup spot all season with such a high draft pick, 2nd round in this case for myself. But don't then do that just because we'd like to think we should. It's always about the nuance of the actual situation, not formulaic thinking. No offense Jamey.
Kincaid should be TE 1 this week. Shakir will continue to improve to top 10. He is a great route runner. Just watched the tape and he gets open. Josh seems to have developed a special connection. Could become a league winning combo!?!?😁🤫
He led the league in reception percentage last season by a large margin and has caught every target so far this year....he just needs more than 5 targets per game to really take that next step. The way Buffalos offense runs, I don't see him getting more than like 7 or 8 max
Someone dropped Zay Flowers in my league this week! While he's tempting to grab, I'm honestly not so sure, not for my small 8 team league anyway. I feel he will be a lot like he was last year, very inconsistent from one game to the next. That isn't a guy I want in my starting lineup. Now if he catches fire like he did at the end of last season, then maybe. No telling though. Roster spots are at a premium for me rn & I may also need to make room for Jonathan Brooks next week when he comes off my IR slot.
I've been sitting everyone against Surtain this yr & it's been the right move every single week thus far. Doing the same w Garrett Wilson this week. Not gonna lie tho, Wilson has been quite disappointing for a guy I took w the 9th overall pick...
I have a question about the flex position. I hear everyone saying that a certain player may be considered a flex at best. Who cares, if you play a number 1 player at flex and a number 10 player at the starting position? They both score the same for you.
“Flex” is referring more to the ranking than the actual position on your lineup. Most leagues are 2WR 2RB and a flex so the “flex” is WR25+ or RB25+ in the rankings, regardless of what slot you put them in your lineup.
Opposing players are like ants under a microscope on that Miami sideline. It is HOT. That's my concern rolling with the Titans DST. Raiders had a heated team meeting today. That SHOULD galvanize the team, at home, and that is what concerns me about their DST.
@@Nickedup44 tough call. I've never been a huge walker fan and jk up against a decent run defense, probably playing from behind against the Chiefs and B.Allen got a lot of work despite Hall being healthy I'd probably play Dobbins if he's healthy, just because he seems to be their lead back right now
@sepetemat31 I know. It's just kinda hard to play them when I've gotten 2 losses directly related to poor play and no production from Aiyuk and qb injuries and just being shut down for Tyreek. My whole wr Corp is, Tyreek, Aiyuk, Jennings, Jameson williams,Pickens, and Jaxson- Smith Njigba,
Bro Heath is out of sorts. Who is getting more volume than Najee? I know everyone is having a rough year with projections but it’s not time to phone it in.
I think Heath is just locked into the fact that one of his only halfway decent preseason calls was to be low on Najee. I really like Heath but he has had a brutal season so far.
Adam may be a theater guy, but he’s surely not a film guy. Hating on A Clockwork Orange?? A Kubrick masterpiece! Unquestionably one of the great films of the 20th century. On every list of the best. Unbelievable bad take. Say it’s not your taste, ok, but that’s on you. It’s the film analogue to hating McCaffrey. Inexplicable.
@@Joker-gi1wz I'm weak at RB and I figure Mixon is a more reliable RB ROS compared to montgomery. My wr are pretty stacked with Jefferson, Rice, and Puka on IR. Idk though maybe im buggin
I would play Ferguson, the Giants defense is atrocious, and the Cowboys don’t have a second target after lamb, he should erupt for about 80 yards in a touchdown
@@rafaelberger8516 fantasy and being on the field are correlated, though. If he keeps playing this badly, the Colts may not hesitate to put Flacco in there.
Seriously, the way you guys run this show can be strange/frustrating at times... You spend the entirety of a game segment talking about two or three guys instead of going over every Fantasy relevant player on each team like you should. It's kind of disjointed/unorganized. Are you guys trying to run a Fantasy show? If so, then you should cover not just the two or three main guys but everyone who is Fantasy relevant! You guys spend an awful lot of time talking about stuff that really isn't that important or relevant. These episodes shouldn't need to be over an hour long. I feel like I'm wasting a lot of time when I watch these. Also, why are you only covering half the games in a video where you're... covering the games? I don't get it. Where are the rest of the games? Is it being broken up into another video? If so, why? I know I'm being harsh... But I just feel the show has so much potential that's being wasted due to the way some stuff is done.

So would u sit Aiyuk if Gonzales plays this week? And go Jennings?
kincaid, ferguson, shakir, dowdle, start 2 (1 TE)
Did i miss the Bears/Rams preview. Not seeing a timestamp for that?
woukd you start both stevenson and odunze over wilson?
I've been sitting everyone against Surtain this yr & it's been the right move every single week thus far.
Doing the same w Garrett Wilson this week. Not gonna lie tho, Wilson has been quite disappointing for a guy I took w the 9th overall pick...
Ppr start 2 W. Robinson, Mooney, Kirk or Ridley, Pickens
It’s mental with Deshaun.
Do I Trade Away McBride, Kyren & Aiyuk to receive Bowers, Gibbs & MHJ? (I also have Montgomery)
1000% yes
YES OF COURSE !!
Karen is a td machine, and gibbs is an injury risk. Its close
I would in a heartbeat
really close

If you need a TE how about Tommy tremble?
Dalton seem to look TE in the Bagels days look at Tyler Elfman red zone numbers when they played together.
Sorry Tyler Eifert
Should I start jsn over Wilson?
Braelon Allen flex?
do it. i am because my bench sucks
He's better than what you'll find on waivers, but I wouldn't start him over real starters
@@demagreg I’m choosing between b Allen, jk and walker. I have shaheed in flex. Who you think?

Mahomes is great in my 6pt super flex
Very happy
Better start this week
Jayden Reed or Brandon Aiyuk?
🪙
J. Jacobs(RB) or K. Shakir(WR) in the flex?
Did I miss it or did they not cover PHi vs TB? If Evans + Godwin are playing do we start both of them?
yes
Achane or Brian Robinson Jr full PPR with no Eckler?
B Rob
Chubba or Aiyuk full ppr?
Rico or b. Allen? And flex one reed or odeunze
Garrett Wilson or Michael Wilson if McBride is out?
Panthers getting it together just in time for Jonathan brooks to dominate let’s gooo
Tyreek Hill, Aiyuk, Jameson Williams, Pickens, and J.Jennings, I need 2
Don’t sit Tyreek… he’s your #1. Idc ab the QB problem. Tyreek + Aiyuk
@sepetemat31 I know. It's just kinda hard to play them when I've gotten 2 losses directly related to poor play and no production from Aiyuk and qb injuries and just being shut down for Tyreek.
My whole wr Corp is, Tyreek, Aiyuk, Jennings, Jameson williams,Pickens, and Jaxson- Smith Njigba,
Juan Jennings or Naje with no Warren? Half ppr flex spot
No Debo or Kittle… go Jennings
Najee
Reed and shaheed for ceedee lamb?
Guy will laugh at you and decline
Half ppr Akers, Alec Pierce, Palmer or engram
Wilson doesn't look like he's in sync with A Rod. The timing looks off for some reason.
Was offered Tyreek Hill for Jordan Mason in a full PPR league, would you give up Mason for him?
Absolutely, once cmc comes back. Mason will fade away...
Chuba or Jauan Jennings full PPR??
Vikings or packers Defense?
go Google rankings
Keep or cut engram, Palmer, stafford, Pierce
Jerome Ford or Tony Pollard
Half PPR: Steele, Dowdle, Akers, or White?
Steele and pray for a TD
Yeah thats tough. Id say steele or akers. Although this could be dowdle’s week 🤞
Will Pickens score a TD this week
Dalton, Stanford or geno smith
