This weekend, I'm heading to Gainesville for a Gator game cooler packed for the tailgate, and I'm ready for the whole experience. And while I'm off cheering for my team in the Swamp, I realize my home could be doing something for me while I'm away. You can host your home on Airbnb while you're gone, and it's such a smart way to earn a little extra money. So I started thinking just a few nights of hosting could help me cover my part of the trip. Maybe even fund some new merch from the UF bookstore or a few game day upgrades. It's super practical. You don't have to be glued to your phone or managing it constantly. Just open your space while you're out enjoying your weekend. We've hosted before when we went up to the Smoky Mountains and it was easy, straightforward, and totally worth it. So if you got a trip coming up, whether it's a football weekend, mini vacation, or just some time away, hosting can be a smart way to make your home work for you. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much@airbnb.com host all right.

We got four teams on by next week. The Giants, The Patriots, the 49ers, and the Panthers. So let's beat the waiver wire for week 14. Welcome, everybody. Friday, November 28th. We've already had six teams play and the Eagles are about to play in the Bears. So that eliminates a lot of teams in terms of beat the waiver wire you don't have. You can't go pick up and stash those players. But anyway, Jamie's here instead of Dave. We appreciate Jamie stepping in. Let's start with some quarterbacks to beat the waiver wire with for next week.
- [02:30]
C
I have two and a half quarterbacks for you.
- [02:34]
A
Oh, okay.
- [02:37]
C
So the two I think that are worth one for sure would be two. A Tongue of Iloa gets the Jets. This, this is next four games gets the Jets. This is week 14. Jets, Steelers, Bengals, Bucks. So potential for some good matchups, potential for maybe some shootouts there. If the Steelers offense against the Dolphins, certainly the Bengals offense and the Bucks TUA may have to throw. And we know that there's the chance of Darren Waller coming back as early as week 13. The next would be to his opponent next week, which is Torod Taylor. So he gets the Dolphins, which we know is shaky matchup in terms of what they allowed opposing quarterbacks, but I don't think that's necessarily indicative of who they are. Then he gets the Jaguars in Week 15 and the Saints in Week 16. So three potential matchups and two. Two Superflex or two quarterback leagues. The next the half is. Is interesting because the Vikings, these are their next three opponents. Washington, Dallas and the Giants. I know three very favorable matchups. So. So it could be McCarthy or it could be Rosemer. And if Brosmer plays well this week against Seattle, maybe he's the starter for the rest of the way. So super flex, two QB leagues, pick them up. Obviously McCarthy if you want to trust him. But I was just looking at schedules. Clearly here not. Not the best situation. A lot of quarterbacks are stashed. The good ones are stashed, right?
- [03:58]
A
Yeah, they really are. Hope you have your quarterback for the stretch run. How about running back? It's never easy to find running backs.
- [04:04]
C
No, but there are some options. So Chris Rodriguez Jr. We know not an easy matchup this week against Denver, but 45 rostered Minnesota. We talked about this on the Friday episode that they're Jekyll and Hyde in terms of their run defense, then the Giants and then Philadelphia. So one decent matchup in there for sure against New York, but otherwise clearly he's going to have the role. At least that's what we anticipate. Next would be Devin Singletary. So they're in a buy in week 14, but they come off there by Washington, Minnesota Las Vegas. So two matchups. I think they're encouraging and if you recall again, it could be a Kafka thing, it could be a Jameis thing. But the better running back after Scatter Boo got hurt with dart was Singletary. So just something to keep in mind there. But obviously he's going to have a role. Blake Corum I just put because of a high end handcuff situation. 39 rostered. If you're the Kyron Williams manager, you should have him on your team just in case. But obviously if you're looking for a league winning guy, potential injury situation, they get Arizona, Detroit, Seattle and Atlanta. Not an easy schedule. But I still think you want to roster Blake Corm next. Two guys are worth monitoring. We actually just got news on one potential situation. Jalen McLaughlin went into their bye week. Remember, he looked like he's the number two guy behind RJ Harvey. We know Harvey hasn't exactly proved himself yet, but McLaughlin32 roster their next three games. Two are favorable. Las Vegas, Green Bay, or sorry, I should say one is favorable. Las Vegas, then Green Bay, then Jacksonville. But McLaughlin, if he does end up in the lead role there and then Trey Benson was just ruled out for week 13. We don't know what's going to happen with the rest of the Cardinals backfield. I said this on the Friday episode. Michael Carter should be rostered now. He's 11 rostered as of as of Friday morning. Friday afternoon. Excuse me. Rams, Texans, Falcons, Bengals. Two difficult matchups, two favorable matchups. So if Carter does end up in the lead role for the Cardinals at some point you want to have them on your team.
- [05:57]
A
All right, we're going to take a break here and yeah, pretty incredible how we were pretty excited about Trey Benson. I just don't know if it's ever going to happen. Hopefully next week, but we'll see. All right, we're gonna take a break and get two wide receivers, tight ends DSTs to stash for week 14 and beyond. We'll be right back.

A
All right, we are back, Jamie. Wide receivers.
- [07:21]
C
Yeah, a lot of these names we've talked about as recently as Tuesday with the waiver wire show. So I'll just give you the names and then we can run through schedules. But you Got Darnell Mooney, 54 rostered. Jaden Higgins, 48 rostered. Darius Slayton, 31 roster. Jamari DK, 21 roster. John Mechi, 18 rostered. And then this is a new one. Just because we don't know what's gonna happen with the Buffalo situation. But Brandon Cooks, he was just signed to the Bills. No claimed off waivers. He's 4% rostered. So Mooney, we don't know when Drake London is going to come back after this week. It's a brutal schedule, at least for three of the four games. Seattle, then Tampa Bay, which we like. Arizona and the Rams, not great for the Falcons upcoming schedule there. But obviously we don't know when when London's gonna return for the Texans. And Jaden Higgins, not exactly easy also. But again, 48 rostered, he gets Kansas City in Week 14, Arizona, Week 15, Las Vegas, Week 16, and the Chargers in Week 17. For Darius Slayton, the reason I put him on this list, he was clearly playing a little bit better with with Dart than he was with Jameis. And still dealing with this hamstring injuries on the injury report even heading into week 13. But has a buy to heal up. And then they come off their bye week. Washington, Minnesota, Las Vegas, Dallas, three very favorable matchups there with the Commanders, the Raiders and the Cowboys. So Slayton, if you want to stash them for the playoff run, he might be able to make some plays.
- [08:40]
A
Cowboys are week 18.
- [08:43]
C
I have week 17. Unless I miss something, I'm sorry it is weekend. Yeah, yeah, I had to buy in there. DK we know has been, you know, up and down, but with Calvin Ridley off for the season, we don't know when I Omar is going to return. Could be this week. But against Cleveland in week 14. Then San Francisco, then Kansas City, then New Orleans. So two matchups that might be favorable for him. Mechi, Dolphins, Jags and Saints. Love that if he's still the guy, depending on Garrett Wilson situation. And then for Cooks, gets the Bengals in Week 14, the Patriots Week 15, the Browns Week 16 and the Eagles Week 17. So not easy. But maybe he's a playmaker for Josh Allen. Titans any good Titans fun Again, a lot of names we've talked about already. Darren Waller. We'll see if he's activated this week, but gets the jets, the Steelers, the Bengals and the Bucks. Dalton Schultz. I don't know why he's not rostered in more leagues. 57. The Chiefs, the Cardinals, the Raiders and the Chargers. Brenton Strange. Another guy surprising that roster in more leagues. Only 38. Colts, Jets, Broncos, Colts. Again, so we know the Colts secondary on the perimeter. Not easy. So Strange could be a big playmaker for Trevor Lawrence. Taysom Hill. Let's see what happens with his backfield for New Orleans. He's 14 rostered. And I don't know if you're aware of this, he could also be started at quarterback. So superflex or 2 QB leagues. I know we start him at tight end, but we can all start him at quarterback, too. So Tampa Bay, Carolina, the Jets and Tennessee. Imagine if he got triple eligibility. Like if it was like baseball or basketball where you can move guys around. He could be a running back, too. Yeah. Colby Parkinson. We talked about this with him. Three touchdowns in three straight. A touchdown in three straight games going into week 13. But starting in week 14, Arizona, Detroit, Seattle and Atlanta. And then Gunner Helm, another guy that we've mentioned recently, 2% rostered. Cleveland, San Francisco, Kansas City, New Orleans in the next four games.
- [10:35]
A
All right, we'll finish up with some DSTs to keep on your bench.
- [10:38]
C
I only did week 14 options. So three that I like that have potentially favorable matchups. Bucks get the Saints, Chiefs get the Texans. We know the Texas offense has been hit or miss. They're back in Kansas City. I feel like Kansas City's defense gonna might have to, you know, keep this game low scoring. And then the Dolphins, they get the Jets. So we said this on Friday show if you want to get the Dolphins for two weeks. They get the New Orleans in week 13 and then the jets in week 14.
- [11:01]
A
All right. And if you're looking ahead to week 15 because some people already want to stash DSTs for the playoffs. The Chicago Bears have Cleveland in Week 15.
- [11:13]
C
Bucks have a good one, too.
- [11:15]
A
Bucks they have Atlanta on Thursday in week 15. And San Francisco has the Titans. You go get them.
- [11:26]
C
Okay.
- [11:26]
