This is fantasy football today from CBS Sports. What a play.
- [04:01]
Adam Mazer
Can you believe this? No, I can't.
- [04:04]
Dan
It's time to dominate your fantasy league.
- [04:06]
Adam Mazer
Off to the races and he stays on his feet. This is gonna go the distance.
- [04:11]
Dan
Now here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie and Heath.
- [04:17]
Adam Mazer
It's mailbag time. The three best words in fantasy football history. Welcome to fantasy football today presented by BetMGM, the sportsbook born in Vegas. Yes, we.
- [04:29]
Jamie
The three best words are I'm a champion.
- [04:31]
Dan
Yeah, I agree with that. The difference is Adam's never been able to say those words for him.
- [04:40]
Jamie
You know what, though? He. He can say, at least for now, that you can't say is that he's never finished last in the fantasy league.
- [04:47]
Dan
Yeah, you mean Guillotine league.
- [04:49]
Jamie
No, fantasy league. That's the league.
- [04:51]
Dan
Which one did I finish last in last year? Oh, the Guillotine league. Yeah. I mean, what's gonna. It's Guillotine. You draft Nico, you're done. Like, I had two picks that didn't do anything. Just random. I had like the 18th pick. Great recap. Honestly, I'm happy to be out of that Guillotine league given what went down that. That league this week. We don't have to get into that, but all right.
- [05:11]
Adam Mazer
We don't have to get into that, but all right. We have your emails. We have at fantasy football, cbsi.com we have Apple podcast questions.
- [05:19]
Dan
We have you bring that up, Jamie early in the show, too.
- [05:22]
Adam Mazer
YouTube comments. We even have some draft a thon questions. So just a couple more to finish off the draft a thon. But let's start with some news and notes. By the way, I've pretty much lost my voice, which isn't great, isn't ideal. So here we go. Sauce Gardner expected to play, but Ed Oliver for the Bills is out and he could miss multiple weeks. They're at the Jets, jets, bills, Sunday at 1 o'. Clock. And yeah, better news for Breece hall and for Justin Fields. Jalen Waddle expected to play. Isaiah likely will not play this week, but he's getting closer. The Colts could be without three key defensive players. That's pretty much all I got for now. Colts are at the Broncos. We'll hope that more comes through the.
- [06:06]
Dan
Jake Moody do you have any fake league neighbors updates for us again? 70 what fake Malik neighbors injury updates again for us?
- [06:14]
Jamie
What fake? He didn't practice last time he played.
- [06:17]
Adam Mazer
He's fine. Darius Slayton should be fine and Andrew Thomas on the fence. We don't know. Oh, Christian Gonzalez still not practicing, so.
- [06:25]
Dan
He'S not a big one.
- [06:26]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, that's about it. Okay, let's get to some more fun stuff here. Let's talk about let's do our draft a thon questions. Here's a draft a thon question from Scott 12 team PPR 2 running back, 2 wide receiver 1 flex league what is your trade philosophy early in the season, especially after a week one loss? How do you balance that pushing the panic button feeling and knowing you need to make improvements? I know my depth at wide receiver. Jefferson London, Sutton, Tedro, McMillan, Olave, Mooney and Kirk can help me bolster a weaker running back room of Hampton, Tracy Crosby, Merritt and Braylon Allen. It's a good question here, Jamie. We don't want to hit the panic button. So what do you think about early season trades?
- [07:13]
Jamie
I think you should always try to make some trades in week one when you feel like you have a position group of strength and you're looking at a position group that might be a little weak. And I'll give you example. Dave and I could not have had a more perfect trade situation in our podcast league that he turned down, which I was surprised. He needs running backs. His only starting running back right now is Devon Hn. He's starting Basial Tootin. So it's a 14 team league a little bit more challenging. He's got a plethora of wide receivers he's got on his bench DJ Moore and Keon Coleman. He's got Jackson, Smith and the Jig. But I forget who else but very good receivers Our team because I share our team. We have basically two two receivers. Our third receiver is Josh Downs. We're starting T. Higgins and George Pickens. Those are our two receivers. Our running back group however is Bijan Robinson, Omarion Hampton, Breece Hall, Jordan Mason, Jalen Warren. So in a 14 team league we are loaded there. Dave is loaded at receiver. So we tried to trade Breeze hall for JSN using Dave's trade chart by the way, which favors Breeze hall and Dave said no. So could not have been a more perfect situation for both of Us.
- [08:21]
Adam Mazer
I think that Dave's partner, his co manager may have said no, that's fine.
- [08:26]
Jamie
I mean, listen, he's entitled to say no. I'm just saying like it could not have been a more perfect. Now he countered with Breeze hall for Marvin Harrison Jr. Which we did not want to accept. So hopefully we could work something out. But I think in the case of what I'm alluding to is we have a strong position group and a weak position group, a weaker position group. Dave has a strong position group and a weaker position group. Like those are the type of trades you're trying to make if you feel like you can enhance your team in some way when you have some strong options on the bench.
- [08:52]
Dan
I'll say one thing about the two. I, I agree with everything Jamie said as far as overall situation. I mean like it doesn't check. It's just a good point. You can just agree with good points sometimes. Like obviously you should be trading positions of strength or positions of weaknesses, but in this listener's specific situation, I think he's better off sitting like now, unfortunately, with the Eckler injury, Bill crossing right could be a massive hit for him. I think given. I know, look, the boxer wasn't great, the fantasy numbers weren't great, but the role was amazing for Marion Hampton. Week one. So those are two players that I think if you do, I wouldn't say panic, but if you do trade right now for running backs because you're trying to trade a position of strength for what you deem to be a position of weakness, that position could become a position of strength pretty fast with those two. And then you might have situations where you don't know who to bend. So I wouldn't, I would sit personally on the roster that he described.
- [09:42]
Jamie
I think, I think when it comes to the, the panic button comment. So what do you determine to be panic button worthy like Nico Collins, Jamar Chase, those type of guys coming off bad games? I'm not worried at all. AJ Brown even. I'm not worried at all. Okay, Ken Walker for example. That's reason to worry. Those type of situations are reason to worry. You know, where there was some stuff happening in the off season and then it played itself out in the first game that we saw. It could easily change in week two. You know, so I had somebody ask me or Tyree Kill situation, you know, same type of thing, you know, where there's some concerns and then you see it play out in, in the first part of the, the season. So injuries, you know, clearly like the Chief situation, you know, how. How confident were you in Patrick Mahomes coming into the season? How confident are you after one game? You know, because of what the receiving core looks like there. So there are different circumstances, I think when it comes to these type of situations. I had somebody asked me, I forgot what the trade offer was, but like trying to send Ken Walker and something else to get Kyron Williams, I think it was, you know, like trying to get out of the game. Walker situation, you know, maybe overpay a little bit for somebody else because you're concerned that this could really go bad. So those type of scenarios, I think come into play a little bit. But I think if you're just looking at it and saying, yeah, Marion Ham did not have a great game, Dan's 100 accurate. Like you got to look at sometimes the usage and the workload for some of these players and what the scenarios could be moving forward?
- [11:01]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, I, I think obviously I was encouraged by the usage for Omarion Hampton. I think he's going to do well. But I'm not surprised that Naji Harris had a very limited workload given the fact that he was missed so much time. So he could easily have a bigger workload. Which brings us to our second question. Do you have data that supports that scoring averages for teams increase after weeks one and two or data that supports that players drafted in rounds one through three underperform early in the season due to a lack of preseason snaps? Well, yeah, I mean, the Bengals are a great example, but they changed their preseason to make sure they got more snaps because they always get off to a slow start. And guess what? It didn't work. They faced their nemesis, the Browns. That always do well against them, basically. But I don't have any data that say that preseason snap like, like Puka Nakua was amazing. Stafford and the Rams never, ever, ever play their guys in the preseason. And Puka is always having good week ones. I don't know that there's anything to that.
- [12:00]
Jamie
You can almost look at the, the Monday night game and it sort of played out in front of us a little bit because the Bears played a lot in the preseason and they got off to a good start in the game. You know, the Vikings didn't play a lot of their guys in the preseason. McCarthy put I think a drive and got going in the second half, you know, so it's hard to say. I don't think there's any rhyme or reason to it. You know, you brought up a good example with the Rams. Trying to think of Somebody that plays in the preseason, like the Chiefs typically do. You know, they play their guys in the preseason. I don't know how much that helped them because the injury. Injuries.
- [12:28]
Dan
Excuse me.
- [12:29]
Adam Mazer
All right. Last year, teams averaged 20.4 points per game in weeks one to one through two and 22.2 weeks three through 18. And that's just offensive points. So that happened last year. Weeks one and two were slow. Week 20, 23, let's see, 20.6 there and 21. No, 20 point. 20, 23 was the opposite. They averaged more points per game in weeks one through two than weeks three through 18. So I don't think we've got anything there. But thank you very much for the questions. Dan, I have a trivia question for you.
- [13:03]
Dan
Yes, sir.
- [13:05]
Adam Mazer
How many times, Dan? How many times now for us on the east coast? There's the 1 o' clock window and the 4 o' clock window.
- [13:14]
Dan
Yep.
- [13:15]
Adam Mazer
How many times are the Giants playing in the four o' clock window this year?
- [13:18]
Dan
Hopefully a lot. So I can watch more red zone at the one o' clock window, but I don't think it is a lot. Do we have, like, nothing One time. Devastating.
- [13:29]
Adam Mazer
All right, Sunday, everybody. What are you doing Sunday morning? Come join us at 11:30am Eastern until kickoff. Just kickoff for the 1o', clocks, not the fours. That'd be a crazy long show. We're gonna answer your starter sit questions for basically 90 minutes, 85 minutes straight without commercials. And that's@YouTube.com fantasy football today. And Jamie, you'll be on HQ. What's your schedule on? You'll be on that on the YouTube as well.
- [13:55]
Dan
Whoa, whoa. You're the guy who says you hate abbreviations. And you just said the word skedge.
- [14:00]
Adam Mazer
It's was. I'm not abbreviating anything. That's what it's called.
- [14:02]
Dan
It's called sketch now. It's called the schedule. And you're the guy who's very clear about. You should not be using abbreviation.
- [14:08]
Adam Mazer
I used it ironically, dad.
- [14:10]
Dan
No, you did not.
- [14:13]
Adam Mazer
Jamie's on the. Jamie's on the queue on Sun. What's your sketch?
- [14:20]
Jamie
I think they changed a little bit of our schedule around, so now maybe three segments from between 12 and one.
- [14:26]
Adam Mazer
Okay. Yes. Dan is a hair. Haircut story. He's died. Oh, boy. Do you need a haircut? Wow. Do you need a haircut?
- [14:33]
Dan
You mean I got one.
- [14:34]
Adam Mazer
It's so long. It's so long.
- [14:37]
Dan
This is post haircut.
- [14:39]
Adam Mazer
No, it just happened. Go back, Go back.
- [14:43]
Jamie
Okay. It looks fine.
- [14:45]
Adam Mazer
It does look fine. But it looks fine like you got a cut three weeks ago and it looks fine. You're gonna need a haircut. You want. You're gonna need a haircut in a week.
- [14:53]
Jamie
No, he's going for a lot.
- [14:54]
Dan
There's a lot of flow going about this haircut.
- [14:56]
Adam Mazer
All right, that'll be later. Also, I'm going to tell you the best call I've made in the last two years. That's coming up.
- [15:02]
Dan
Wow.
- [15:02]
Jamie
Like, phone call.
- [15:04]
Adam Mazer
Any call. Any call.
- [15:06]
Dan
Let's see what that is.
- [15:07]
Adam Mazer
All right, let's get to some emails here. And our first one is from Peterson. This is from Peterson. Half pbr.
- [15:15]
Dan
What's that from?
- [15:16]
Adam Mazer
This is George Peterson.
- [15:17]
Dan
What is that?
- [15:18]
Jamie
Oh, God. Dan, go see a movie.
- [15:21]
Producer Josh
Part of my French Rooney.
- [15:24]
Adam Mazer
It's a Ferris Bueller.
- [15:26]
Dan
Oh, all right. Well, I actually have seen that, but I don't remember that Peterson thing.
- [15:31]
Adam Mazer
It's George Peterson. All right, half pbr. Pick one. Jameson Williams, Aaron Jones or Romo Dunze Jamo.
- [15:42]
Dan
Yeah, I think Jameson Bounce Back is good there.
- [15:45]
Adam Mazer
All right, this one's from. Oh, second. Second one from Peterson is pick three. AJ Brown, Mike Evans, Alvin Camara, Tony Pollard, Tea McMillan, Javante Williams.
- [15:59]
Jamie
The first three.
- [16:02]
Dan
I'll go Brown, Evans, Ted Tedoa. Sorry, he doesn't like that. I did forget about.
- [16:09]
Adam Mazer
By the way, shout out to Josh, our producer, for typing up, like, all of these questions and making them lower thirds.
- [16:14]
Dan
Josh is elite.
- [16:15]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, he's great.
- [16:18]
Jamie
Thomas under the bus. By the way, good job.
- [16:19]
Dan
That doesn't mean Thomas is not elite.
- [16:21]
Adam Mazer
Thomas is super great.
- [16:23]
Dan
Does not mean that.
- [16:24]
Adam Mazer
It doesn't. You're right. All right, this is from Devin. Wondering who to start or sit in a PPR League 2 flex.
- [16:31]
Dan
Well, I just want to say, with that said, I do believe Josh is a better golfer than Thomas.
- [16:36]
Adam Mazer
No.
- [16:37]
Dan
Yes, sir. And Thomas is good, but Josh is even better.
- [16:42]
Adam Mazer
What I've heard Thomas is. Thomas has no ego at all.
- [16:46]
Dan
I know, but he really thinks he's.
- [16:49]
Adam Mazer
He thinks he's a great golfer, but he.
- [16:51]
Dan
That's the one thing he does.
- [16:52]
Jamie
He doesn't think he's a great golfer.
- [16:53]
Adam Mazer
Yes, he does.
- [16:54]
Dan
He thinks.
- [16:54]
Jamie
He just thinks he's a great golfer. Whenever Dan says stuff like this.
- [16:57]
Dan
Yeah, he thinks he's pretty good.
- [16:59]
Jamie
He thinks he's pretty good.
- [16:59]
Dan
But he's not Josh's level, which is very interesting. I thought he'd be the best producer on fft, given his handicap, talking about Thomas, but I've learned some stuff behind the scenes, and I think he he'd really have a tough time beating Josh.
- [17:10]
Adam Mazer
Wow. Okay, here's. So we need two wide receivers and a flex PPR. Let's get the wide receivers first. Sutton, McMillan and Pearsall.
- [17:20]
Jamie
Sutton and Pearsall.
- [17:25]
Dan
I really like McMillan this week. Just looking at some of the stuff. I watched the cut ups of the tape. He was really close to having a huge game. I want to play McMillan. I'll go McMillan and Sutton. Mac Jones. I can. I can avoid that.
- [17:37]
Adam Mazer
Pierce, all Hampton. Or ETN.
- [17:39]
Dan
For.
- [17:40]
Adam Mazer
For Flex or. Or. Yeah. McMillan, Sutton.
- [17:44]
Dan
The receivers. All three receivers.
- [17:46]
Jamie
I'm gonna go Sutton, Pearsall and etn.
- [17:49]
Adam Mazer
Okay. This is from Ryan, dear. Mike, Brian, Adam and Dan. These are NFL head coaches for a team.
- [17:59]
Dan
Mike, Brian, Adam and Dan. Mike McDaniel, maybe, but I don't know if they're starting with the head coach.
- [18:09]
Jamie
These are Mike, Brian, Adam. Dolphins.
- [18:11]
Adam Mazer
Yes.
- [18:12]
Dan
No.
- [18:12]
Adam Mazer
Yes.
- [18:12]
Dan
That's what I said. Mike McDan was getting there.
- [18:14]
Adam Mazer
Yeah. Okay. Name the others, Brian.
- [18:19]
Jamie
I'll do it.
- [18:20]
Dan
I don't even know who his two coordinators.
- [18:22]
Adam Mazer
No, no, no, no. They're the head coaches. Dolphins have had last four head coaches. Brian Flores.
- [18:27]
Dan
Brian Flores. Who were the other two?
- [18:29]
Adam Mazer
Adam Gaze and Dan Campbell.
- [18:31]
Jamie
Dan Campbell was interim coach for the music.
- [18:33]
Dan
No.
- [18:33]
Adam Mazer
Yeah.
- [18:33]
Dan
Oh, there. It doesn't have to be head coaches. Okay.
- [18:35]
Adam Mazer
He was the head coach for a matter of games.
- [18:38]
Jamie
Head coach.
- [18:39]
Dan
Got you.
- [18:39]
Jamie
Okay.
- [18:40]
Dan
Okay.
- [18:40]
Adam Mazer
All right. Half ppr, two receiver. League grade. The trade. Give up Tyreek Hill and Isaiah Pacheco. Get Teteroa McMillan and Caleb Johnson.
- [18:54]
Dan
I don't.
- [18:55]
Jamie
Right now. You're giving up too much.
- [18:57]
Dan
Yeah.
- [18:57]
Jamie
In a month you may regret not making this trade. So it's a matter of where you think Tyreek is going, because really, it's Tyreek. He's the. He's the. The. The swaying factor in all of this. All these player movements. So if Tyreek bounces back, you're going to regret this trade tenfold. If Tyreek goes AWOL or gets potentially suspended or traded. And I say suspended just because the potential off field stuff like it could be disaster. So this is what we're talking about, you know, are you. Are you hitting the panic button too soon? Grade it. Oh, they made a trade already.
- [19:39]
Adam Mazer
Give up Tyreek Hill and Pacheco. Get Teddy Roll McMillan and Caleb Johnson.
- [19:43]
Jamie
I'm gonna say it's a D right now.
- [19:44]
Dan
I'll give it. I'll give it a little higher. I'll give it a. A B minus. Because I do think he probably got the best player in the deal, which is Tedro. I'm very high on it moving forward. Given week one.
- [19:55]
Adam Mazer
Given week one. I mean the film, the film I get. I mean I watched it too and.
- [19:59]
Dan
I was going to play a lot better. A lot of those things are blown up, blown up by the left tackle and they're going to get the left tackle back.
- [20:06]
Adam Mazer
So. All right. From Andrew. But I would also say that, I would also say that 22 is going to play a lot better.
- [20:12]
Dan
That situation just seems very uncertain to me across the board. Like is Tyreek gonna play on this team the whole year? Does Tyree care?
- [20:20]
Adam Mazer
Chiefs, let's go.
- [20:23]
Dan
That would be weird.
- [20:23]
Jamie
But if he goes to the Chiefs and everybody's healthy, I don't.
- [20:26]
Dan
People mention.
- [20:27]
Adam Mazer
It'll be like, it'll be like a, a fun reunion.
- [20:30]
Dan
People mention the Chiefs, but I'm pretty sure even with the, the bonuses already paid out, even just a base salary, I don't think the Chiefs can fit him in their cap situation.
- [20:40]
Jamie
No, the only, I think the only way that anybody is taking Tyreek is if Dolphins are taking portion of his. Paying a portion of his salary.
- [20:46]
Dan
You could always restructure a massive portion of. They've restructured so many deals there though. I, I guess it's possible. I'm sure they could, but I think that would be something that they would have to look into because it would borrowing from the future to pay now for Tyreek Hill, which maybe is worth it.
- [21:01]
Adam Mazer
All right, here we go. Last question before we take a little break here from Andrew PPR Flex, Travis Hunter or Tyler Warren.
- [21:08]
Dan
Warren.
- [21:09]
Jamie
I would go Warren with the uncertainty of what Hunter's role could be.
- [21:13]
Dan
All right, bench Warren right now it's.
- [21:15]

Adam Mazer
This email, fantasy footballbsi.com is from Ivy. And by the way, before I get to Ivy's question, if you leave us an Apple podcast review, leave us a five star review, let everyone know why you like the show, help our show grow, and then you can leave a question. That's a good way to get your question read on the air. It's not a guarantee, but it's higher percentage than sending an email. Although I do love the emails and I respond to some of them personally. And maybe you don't Read them on the show, but I can give you a response. Not again. That. Probably about 40% of those, but the email address is fantasy football. CBSI.com the letter I. I am stuck between Cortland Sutton and Keenan Allen. Who would you guys go with?
- [24:34]
Jamie
Sutton. It's not close for me.
- [24:36]
Dan
Yeah, it's got to be Sutton.
- [24:37]
Adam Mazer
Love the show. Next part's more important. Love the show. And Adam, keep being awesome. Too much hate on you on the air.
- [24:47]
Dan
I mean, the percentage of. The percentage of positive emails you read versus the one time you throw in a negative. It's just crazy.
- [24:54]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, that's. You know, but he is right. Do you. Do you think that maybe I actually receive more positive than negatives, or do you think I just choose more positives than negative?
- [25:04]
Jamie
I think everybody knows your stick at this point. Difficult. They're right.
- [25:10]
Dan
It's correct. You do a great job.
- [25:12]
Adam Mazer
All right, this is from Christopher. Hey. Thomas. Samuel, Benjamin and John.
- [25:19]
Dan
Thomas. Oh, this is. Did you say Benjin?
- [25:22]
Adam Mazer
No, I said Benjamin.
- [25:24]
Dan
So I think we got this one before Game of Thrones characters up north by the wall, but this is Thomas.
- [25:30]
Adam Mazer
Always want to make a Game of Thrones their presidents. I also feel like they're this. Mel Gibson's sons and the Patriot.
- [25:39]
Dan
I feel like there's no.
- [25:42]
Jamie
What. What was the one thing Dan said that one time about Game of Thrones.
- [25:44]
Adam Mazer
He got in Targaryen.
- [25:48]
Jamie
Ghostbusters.
- [25:50]
Adam Mazer
I need three running backs, so sit. Sit. One of these guys. Pollard, Hubbard, Jalen, Warren Swift. It's half ppr. Pollard Hubbard, Jalen, Warren Swift. Who's sitting.
- [26:01]
Dan
Sitting warned.
- [26:02]
Jamie
I'm sitting. Pollard.
- [26:04]
Adam Mazer
Oh, you're starting Warren over Pollard how.
- [26:06]
Jamie
Yeah, I like the situation from this week.
- [26:09]
Adam Mazer
All right, this one is from Stephen. Dear Chris, Mike, Matt and Michael.
- [26:17]
Dan
I mean, this is ridiculous for the most common names in the world.
- [26:22]
Adam Mazer
It's a great question, though. I have no idea what the greeting is, but are there any stat lines from week one that have untold stories? Some people, like me, don't get a chance to actually watch a lot of football, and they only get their info from looking at the stats after the fact. So were there any stat lines from week one that have untold stories?
- [26:42]
Dan
I started. I said before, but Tedro McMillan State was great. He got open on multiple vertical routes where he should have got the ball. There were a couple timing routes that were disrupted by the tackle play, which could be bad until they get Guanu back. So that I think will improve. I think he. He comes to mind. First. Let me think of Some other ones.
- [27:00]
Jamie
I'm trying to think. I'm just trying to attach it to numbers versus, you know, what. What actually we saw. So, like, the targets for the guys in New Orleans. The targets for the guys in Cleveland. Like, how sustainable is that? Specifically New Orleans?
- [27:18]
Adam Mazer
Because they threw so much.
- [27:20]
Jamie
Huh?
- [27:20]
Adam Mazer
They threw so much.
- [27:21]
Jamie
They threw so much. But that's, I think, a staple for Cleveland for sure, with Joe Flacco starting and probably going to end up being a staple for New Orleans.
- [27:31]
Adam Mazer
What else would I say? I would say that. I would say that when I watched Ken Walker and Zach Charbonnet. Okay, you can see that Ken Walker is so much obviously faster than Zach Charbonnet.
- [27:48]
Jamie
So I think if you better word might be explosive.
- [27:51]
Adam Mazer
Either way. I think if you're. I. I think they'd be making a mistake. Even though Charbonnet was so much better than Walker.
- [27:59]
Dan
Strongly disagree.
- [28:00]
Adam Mazer
I think they'd be making a mistake to just like, turn the run game over to Zach Charbonnet. I think he's not going to give them an explosive element. He's more consistent.
- [28:07]
Dan
Let me just feel like we're right.
- [28:08]
Jamie
For what we had yesterday on the show. You don't watch. So Thursday, 1pm Eastern, on CBS Sports Network. We have Robert Turbin join us. And Turbo is very in tune with the Seahawks. Used to play for them. And he even said this when he was answering the question because he's fantastic and he said Ken Walker is one of his friends. They need to make Charbonnet the number one running back there.
- [28:31]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, I. I agree with that, but to what. To what degree, though? Well, I don't know if I agree with that, but. But to what's that? Yeah, go ahead.
- [28:39]
Dan
Well, no, no, I don't want to cut you off. Go ahead.
- [28:40]
Adam Mazer
I was gonna say, like, I. I think Charbonne could be the number one running back, but I don't know that. I just don't think you can lose Ken Walker and. And make sure, because Walker gives them something that Charbonnet just can't.
- [28:50]
Dan
He does give them that speed element that you're talking about. I don't know if I would say explosive, though. I think the Charbonnet runs pretty explosive for. For. It depends what you mean by explosive. I guess I need to frame better big plays. Yeah. Long plays is not. But long plays don't happen a lot at the running back position in general in the NFL. I don't think we should be chasing them or I don't think offenses should be chasing. This reminds me a lot of the DeAndre Swift Montgomery debate from years ago, Adam, that we had on this show. And when it comes to a player like Charbonnet, he's just better at processing runs behind that. I think that's probably what Turbo was kind of referencing. He also gets his weight behind him. He squares up, he runs with good low center of gravity. He runs through contact. He's like 230, but it's pretty fast for his size. Like, he just looks a lot better behind that scheme. Maybe it was because of they were trying to play Robert Salah and they were trying not to run as much outside zone in week one. That's possible. And they may have matchups where Walker will be the better fit. But overall, I think Charbonnet is a better running back. If you're looking for what running back means, he's not as fast, he's not as explosive. I'm. I'm fine saying that, but just like playing the position, I think he's better.
- [29:54]
Adam Mazer
He might be. I. Yeah, I just.
- [29:56]
Dan
There is a lot of nuances about running back that get overlooked.
- [29:59]
Adam Mazer
I don't know why. That one just came to me, came to my mind. I thought Marvin Harrison was wide open a lot and Kyler had a pretty bad game.
- [30:07]
Dan
Yeah, Bowers. I think Bowers could have had a much bigger game if he didn't get hurt. And he's going to be just dominating all year if he's healthy.
- [30:17]
Jamie
That's an interesting one because looking at the Patriots defense this week versus the Dolphins. So Dolphins coming off a bad game. Heath keeps referencing, you know, Geno Smith with 372, 370 passing yards. I wonder if the Dolphins are capable of that right now.
- [30:32]
Dan
Yeah, I don't know if they are.
- [30:35]
Adam Mazer
Okay.
- [30:36]
Jamie
I don't know if they are either.
- [30:36]
Adam Mazer
You know, that's another.
- [30:37]
Jamie
Especially with. With their offensive line concerns, you know, so just in terms of, again, referencing the stats, like, Gino didn't throw the ball a ton. It's not like it was 40 right attempt day for him to get there. He got there rather easily. And so that's the hope, if you're looking at it from Miami's perspective. But I also think you're looking at it from the New England defense perspective. Like, if they're going to get after Tua, he's not going to have time to make those plays.
- [30:57]
Adam Mazer
So that. Okay, on this subject of things that weren't in the box score, the offensive line, in my opinion, from watching the tape and according to the pressure rate stats, okay. Was not the problem for the Dolphins, they actually didn't give up a lot of pressures. Tua just had a really, really bad game. He was off target. He was tricked a couple times. That second interception he threw was horrible. The first interception was just an overthrow, and they were just trailing. I mean, their defense was so bad. They were in an immediate hole.
- [31:26]
Dan
Yeah.
- [31:26]
Adam Mazer
So I think. I think it was just a. Mostly, it was a really bad game from Tua, not necessarily the line. That being said, their line is even more injured than it was now than it was a week ago.
- [31:36]
Jamie
So I get the sense with him. And this played itself out last year with their game plan. If he's not in rhythm early, he's in trouble.
- [31:48]
Adam Mazer
Yeah.
- [31:48]
Jamie
And so when he's not comfortable, you see happy feet.
- [31:53]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, he. He was a mess. All right. Last thing.
- [31:56]
Jamie
I'm sure Mike Rabel's gonna see that.
- [31:58]
Dan
Two. Two quick ones there that I want to get in. Chargers, I'm excited to see again because they finally allowed it to be a pass. First offense and Herbert absolutely cooked. It was the most perfect game film by far I saw by any quarterback in Week 1. If that's going to continue, that's big change for fantasy. And then. Yeah. And then finally Minnesota. That offensive line was just creating so much push up front in the run game. That could be huge all season for Jordan Mason.
- [32:23]
Adam Mazer
Without Darasaw.
- [32:24]
Dan
Without Darasaw. They added Will Fries as a big addition for them, but they were just.
- [32:28]
Jamie
I was. I was one situation away from, like, a big victory lap in week one. My bold prediction that without injury, Jordan Mason better than Aaron Jones, Charbonnet better than. Oh, wow, Walker, and then the one that's a disaster is Bray.
- [32:45]
Adam Mazer
That's okay. Two out of three is pretty good there. All right. This is from.
- [32:50]
Jamie
It's one week.
- [32:50]
Adam Mazer
Is one week from Dave's favorite town on Cape Cod. I don't know. We'll have to ask Dave. Trade Keon Coleman and Jake Ferguson for Khalil Shakir and David Montgomery. It's a non PPR league. It's three receivers and it's 14 teams. So give up Coleman and Ferguson. He has Tyler Warren for Shakir and Montgomery. Yes.
- [33:15]
Jamie
I would do it.
- [33:16]
Adam Mazer
A minus B plus.
- [33:18]
Dan
I'm going with A. With a B.
- [33:20]
Adam Mazer
Good trade.
- [33:21]
Dan
I think. I think Coleman's the best player in that deal.
- [33:23]
Adam Mazer
Coleman's better than Montgomery.
- [33:25]
Jamie
Not non.
- [33:26]
Adam Mazer
Non ppr.
- [33:27]
Dan
Want to do a bet? Rest of season, who scores more in non ppr? I think I might be willing to do that anyway.
- [33:35]
Adam Mazer
Okay, then you shouldn't make this trade, I guess, but.
- [33:38]
Dan
But that's just me. I'm high on Coleman. I'm with Dave.
- [33:41]
Adam Mazer
All right. This is from Brad. Full PPR.
- [33:45]
Dan
Dave has to make that trade. Yeah.
- [33:46]
Adam Mazer
Pick one in full PPR. Jerry. Judy, DeAndre Swift, Hollywood Brown, Tyrone Tracy.
- [33:54]
Dan
I think I'm going Brown.
- [33:58]
Jamie
Obviously.
- [33:58]
Dan
Right.
- [33:59]
Adam Mazer
It's not going to be Tracy. So Judy Swift or Hollywood Brown to start. Yep. One.
- [34:06]
Jamie
And what's format? Oh, ppr, Hollywood.
- [34:10]
Dan
Yeah.
- [34:12]
Adam Mazer
Last one. Grade the trade from Patrick. Give McBride and Chuba Hubbard. Get Tyler Warren and Bucky Irving.
- [34:25]
Dan
I'm gonna give that A. For me, it's a C minus at best.
- [34:29]
Jamie
I wouldn't do it.
- [34:30]
Dan
Yeah.
- [34:30]
Adam Mazer
I would not do it. Trey McBride, Jay Brighton Hubbard for Warren and Bucky Irving.
- [34:35]
Dan
Yeah. Juba's legit. I'm not doing it.
- [34:38]
Adam Mazer
Almost time for the fantasy cops. But first, it's time for the best call I've made in two years. And Dan's haircut story. Somehow he got a haircut. I don't really get it. But about a year and a half, three months. I don't know. A year and three months. Something like that. I said. And something I actually briefly mentioned last week, but I said I listened to a new musician. He's my favorite artist in the last 20 years.
- [35:08]
Jamie
Wow.
- [35:08]
Adam Mazer
He's going to be the next big thing. Everyone needs to listen to him. His name is Sam Fender. This was like a year and a half ago almost, I think. I hope you listen to that because he's incredible. He came out with another album. Now he's, like, pretty popular. He was on Jimmy Kimmel a few months ago. I'm going to see him in concert Friday the 19th in New York City. If any of you are there, let me know. It's general admission. We'll say, hi, Dan, I think you should come. I already told you this at Terminal 5. He's the man. And he's been. It's been like a reward to be able to listen to him basically every day for, like, last year.
- [35:45]
Jamie
You're saying you discovered him.
- [35:46]
Dan
What's the call, though?
- [35:48]
Adam Mazer
Trying to figure out what the best he's become. The. I said he's gonna become the next big thing.
- [35:52]
Jamie
He's pretty much what you're saying.
- [35:54]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, I discovered Sam Fender. Yeah.
- [35:56]
Jamie
Okay. I'll go ahead and make that up.
- [35:58]
Adam Mazer
But I also just. I also just want to invite everyone to join me in Manhattan next Friday night for the.
- [36:04]
Jamie
It. It's. It's perfectly okay. We do this with football players all the time. I predicted It. I called it. You. You're the one. So you discovered Sam Fender. Okay, because, I mean, listen, you're on a national show. Yeah, you were. You were touting how much you liked him. So talent scout Adam Mazer discovered Sam Fender.
- [36:22]
Adam Mazer
He is so good, it is incredible. The best lyricist I've ever listened to.
- [36:27]
Dan
Like, there. Yeah, I'll listen to him and I'll consider. I don't know if I can do a concert next week. I'm doing two concerts back to back city tonight and tomorrow. So shout out to anybod who is going to J Rad tonight. Appear 17, if you want to say what's up, I'll be there. Or Volpec tomorrow at the Garden. But I am definitely considering it because I do love live shows.
- [36:45]
Adam Mazer
Okay, I'm gonna send you a playlist I made called Sam Fender's greatest Hits. According to.
- [36:50]
Jamie
You're sending him a mixtape?
- [36:52]
Adam Mazer
Basically. Oh, you did it again. You say mixtape instead of mixtape. It's so weird, but I'm gonna send this to Dan, and you're welcome. All right, Dan.
- [37:00]
Jamie
Did I say it wrong?
- [37:01]
Adam Mazer
You say mixtape, you emphasize tape. It's so strange.
- [37:06]
Dan
Wait, what tape?
- [37:08]
Adam Mazer
It's mixtape, not mixtape.
- [37:11]
Dan
Yeah, I say mixtape.
- [37:13]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, that's correct. You finally got me.
- [37:15]
Jamie
Say it.
- [37:16]
Adam Mazer
If I tell you how Jamie's gonna say it, then you're gonna start saying it that way. You're gonna say, yeah, I'm with Jamie.
- [37:21]
Dan
I don't mimic Jamie. I just agree with him on his fantasy takes. He has good takes. What do you want from me?
- [37:25]
Adam Mazer
Say it again, Jamie. I'm giving Dan. What?
- [37:29]
Jamie
A mixed tape.
- [37:30]
Dan
First of all, mixed. It's not mixed.
- [37:32]
Adam Mazer
It's just mixed.
- [37:33]
Dan
There's no Ed.
- [37:37]
Adam Mazer
That's a bad moment.
- [37:38]
Dan
This is not great.
- [37:39]
Adam Mazer
Oh, I sent it to. I sent the playlist to Jamie instead of Dan. My fault. You should listen to it too. All right, Dan, what happened to this haircut that you apparently got?
- [37:48]
Dan
All right, so me, you know, me a little bit. You know that I don't really care too much about these types of things, so I just go to a chain haircut place, and I don't have a specific hairdresser. I just go. If I'm ready that day, I'll go. So I show up at my place. I walk in.
- [38:04]
Jamie
You're Kirk cousins. Essentially.
- [38:06]
Dan
Essentially. I show up at my place, I walk. It's walking distance. I like that, too, from where I live. Show up, I walk in. There's a new hairdresser. The other one that I usually Is there that I like? She's with someone at the moment. So, okay, I walk over, I get my haircut. She says, what do you want? And I have a very, you know, easy answer. A two on the sides, Trim the top. Fine. Then she asked me about our day. But, you know. You know when people ask you a question, but they're kind of just waiting to answer their answer to that question? I do that sometimes, by the way, I'm guilty. I think we all are guilty of that.
- [38:40]
Adam Mazer
Yeah.
- [38:41]
Dan
So she does. Then she goes into this long thing about. It's her birthday weekend. She's doing this and this. That's fine. I don't really want to hear it, but it's fine. Like, I'll chill and I'll. And I'll relax, but I. I'm thinking that throughout the time. So I'm starting to zone out during her story, and then I see her do something I've never seen a hairdresser do in my life before. When cutting hair, she took a comb. She wetted the hair. My top of my hair. First she did the sides of two. It's fine. Like, it looked normal. Everything was going good. I could start to zone out. Then she puts the water in the hair, and I've never seen this before. To cut hair, she parts the middle of my head. Like, with a comb, she parted my hair like it was Moses parting the Red Sea. And I was close to being like, let my hair go. Let my hair go. Hint. Because I'm like. You know, you're, like, frozen in these moments. You can't, like, do anything.
- [39:26]
Adam Mazer
You want to trust them.
- [39:27]
Dan
Mid cut. I've never gone back and told them to redo it. I've never complained. I've always. Yeah, you're doing a great job. You know, like, I'm just a. I'm. I'm weak in these moments. So she's parting the hair, and now she's, like, working through the sides and doing all this stuff. And, like, in the end, after all of that, she's already done. She had done all the job. Like, the job was done, basically. She's like, oh, how do you normally wear your hair? Like, that's a question you need to ask at first.
- [39:50]
Jamie
First.
- [39:50]
Dan
Yeah, it over to the side. And then she gave a kind of look like, oh, like, that's probably not gonna work with what I just did to your hair. I was just, like, sitting there, like, all right.
- [40:00]
Jamie
I guess. I guess that's it.
- [40:02]
Dan
Thank you.
- [40:02]
Adam Mazer
You do not have. You do not have part in the Middle hair.
- [40:06]
Dan
No, obviously. Yeah. It's not good for that, right?
- [40:08]
Adam Mazer
No, definitely not.
- [40:09]
Dan
It's okay. I did my thing to it, and it looks pretty much fine for the most part, I think.
- [40:14]
Jamie
Like.
- [40:15]
Adam Mazer
But man, you gotta grow up, man. Like, you gotta get a barber. You gotta get a person that.
- [40:20]
Dan
No, but I don't want that. I like this. This is cheap and walking distance. Like, these are things. I don't care about my hair enough.
- [40:26]
Jamie
But you said there's the same person that you go to in the. In that place, right?
- [40:29]
Dan
Usually she. Yeah, usually get the same person.
- [40:31]
Adam Mazer
Wait for her.
- [40:32]
Dan
Yeah.
- [40:33]
Adam Mazer
You could have just waited. Someone wants to know if you tipped.
- [40:35]
Dan
Of course I tap. I'm a good tipper.
- [40:37]
Adam Mazer
The hair looks good. The hair does look good.
- [40:39]
Jamie
It looks great.
- [40:40]
Adam Mazer
It just doesn't look like.
- [40:41]
Dan
No, it actually kind of worked out fine. Like, after I did, you know, did the comb over thing that I do. But it doesn't look bad. Like, I kind of think overall it ended up pretty good. It was just in the moment watching her do that. Like, the hair. I had literally just a line going down the middle of bald, and it was crazy. I've never seen it. It's a new style way to do it. I don't know.
- [40:59]
Jamie
It's crazy, but it was. It was.
- [41:01]
Dan
It was worrisome in the moment.
- [41:02]
Adam Mazer
Jamie does need a haircut.
- [41:03]
Jamie
I do need a haircut. Kelly's on vacation.
- [41:05]
Adam Mazer
Oh, brutal.
- [41:07]
Jamie
So bad.
- [41:08]
Adam Mazer
Jamie will not get a haircut unless. If Kelly were out for three weeks, he'd wait three weeks.
- [41:12]
Dan
See, that's a smart. That's what a smart person does. I'm not a smart man.
- [41:16]
Jamie
Kelly is. Adam has never looked better than when he went to Kelly.
- [41:19]
Adam Mazer
Kelly's great, but the guy I got now is the man. He's great. He puts on great music. 90s rock when I'm in there. It's good stuff for you.
- [41:28]
Dan
You ask him for no, it's just what he likes. Okay.
- [41:30]
Adam Mazer
Yeah. All right. We're gonna get to the fantasy cops after this quick break on fantasy football today. Then we'll come back and we will regulate your leagues. Be right back.

Adam Mazer
Yeah, I don't have the guts to tell the barber, like, no, you're doing this wrong. I'm just.
- [42:43]
Dan
I know I don't have the guts to do it.
- [42:45]
Adam Mazer
I'm gonna get a terrible haircut and then I'm not going to say anything.
- [42:48]
Jamie
Right?
- [42:49]
Adam Mazer
Very nervous.
- [42:50]
Dan
And I'll say, everything's fine at the end. Yeah, there's something wrong with me.
- [42:53]
Adam Mazer
All right, it's time for the Fantasy Cops. This one is from Andrew. He says, hey, guys, can you chime in? This league's been running for 20 plus years with a group of friends that basically hate each other. We've been on.
- [43:09]
Dan
That's awesome.
- [43:10]
Adam Mazer
We've been on CBS forever. And waivers always ran Thursday mornings. But for whatever reason, this week, week one waivers ran Wednesday morning. The league rules setting. What'd you say?
- [43:23]
Jamie
Sounds familiar.
- [43:23]
Adam Mazer
I know. That's why. That's why I included it. The league rules setting state that waivers run Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. On the AD player page, it had the date of Wednesday the 10th next to the players names. So four teams placed waivers on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. When the waivers cleared, guys began picking up free agents. The guys who were unaware that waivers ran were obviously not happy and want to reverse all the moves made. But the teams that put their fab. It's fab, by the way. The teams that put their fab bids in feel like it should be fixed going forward as they now have a disadvantage with the rest of the league knowing the players they were interested in and how much their bid was going to be. So we tried to bring this to a vote and we got about five reverse it. Three, don't reverse it, and a few saying, I don't care either way, and a few no answers. Any insight here on how this should be addressed?
- [44:16]
Dan
To be quite clear. Go ahead, Jamie.
- [44:18]
Jamie
It was never made clear that it was running Wednesday this week.
- [44:23]
Adam Mazer
It was never made clear. It was in the league rules. I guess it was changed or something. I don't know. And if you went to the player Pages you saw Wednesday next to their names in terms of when they were available.
- [44:34]
Jamie
I think that's a. Probably the only league I know that does that for sure. I could be wrong, but Sleeper, you could see the.
- [44:40]
Adam Mazer
No, our leagues do it.
- [44:42]
Jamie
Our leagues?
- [44:43]
Dan
The free agent report. Yeah.
- [44:44]
Adam Mazer
No, no. If you like. If you go right now to one of our CBS leagues and go to add a player, it'll tell you when that player is available. It might say no. No. On the stats page, if you're looking at all the projections. This is a CBS league. It says we've been on CBS forever.
- [44:59]
Jamie
Okay. You think? I know my own.
- [45:02]
Dan
Okay.
- [45:03]
Jamie
I think if there was no mention of it prior to. So the commissioner changed the rules without telling anybody, then you have to make sure everybody's aware and it should be reversed. I'm sorry for the people that put in claims.
- [45:15]
Adam Mazer
It doesn't seem like the commissioner did that or remembers doing that.
- [45:18]
Dan
So unfair too, though. Like, everyone knows the exact price that people are bidding.
- [45:22]
Jamie
But that. I mean, if. If. If it was an even playing field and everybody knew it was gonna be on Wednesday. You have the same situation.
- [45:30]
Dan
Yeah.
- [45:31]
Jamie
Yeah.
- [45:31]
Dan
I guess. Finally the only solution.
- [45:34]
Adam Mazer
I think so. I think you got to reverse it. And by the way, I did this in the Dynasty league last year. I changed it.
- [45:41]
Dan
I baked burger.
- [45:42]
Adam Mazer
I don't remember changing it. That's the thing. Like, I guess it used to run on Thursdays and I changed it to Wednesday's waivers. And Darnell Mooney was available after week one. And Jamie never put in a claim for him because he thought waivers were running Thursday. I. I guess I changed it. I honestly don't remember what happened. But I screwed up. I screwed up and I was lucky that Jamie didn't make a big stink out of it. We moved on. It was. It was an error on my part, I think, sometimes.
- [46:07]
Dan
What do you mean? You were lucky Jamie didn't make a.
- [46:09]
Jamie
Big Adam ruins my teams. But I don't make a stink when he. When he.
- [46:13]
Adam Mazer
It was a. It was a very. Look, in Dynasty leagues, they're not the Darnell Mooney's of the world. Don't come along very often. Right. It was a really big time pickup after week one because I would have.
- [46:22]
Jamie
Spent probably most of my fat.
- [46:23]
Adam Mazer
And Jamie could have put up a big stink about it and be like, we should run it again. This and that. And I would have been in a tough spot. So I guess the message could be here. Sometimes commissioners screw up.
- [46:32]
Dan
Give him a break.
- [46:33]
Adam Mazer
You could give him a break. You Know, do. It's do what's best for the league, but, yeah, it's a tough call. I get it. All right. This one's from Tim, I think. I can't really hear the music. I hope it's not too loud for everybody. Tim's. In the second year of a dynasty league, we have a no tanking rule, which means you must set a valid lineup each week with no injured or suspended players. The last place team from last season has, Rasheed Rice, left him in his lineup for Friday night, week one. His opponent pointed it out to the group. Okay, his opponent pointed it out. The commissioner edited the lineup and put Rice on the bench. But now the last place team's opponent who pointed this whole thing out is going to lose or lost because of the lineup fix from the commissioner. At the time Friday, I said that it didn't seem fair that the commissioner fixed the lineup since it seemed like Rice was in the lineup either by accident or because the manager didn't check his lineup rather than just tanking. And now the opponent wants the commissioner to put Rice back in his opponent's lineup. Should the commission put Rice back in the lineup? How can we discern between tanking and bad managers?
- [47:45]
Jamie
I guess the question would be is, has this ever happened before? Because clearly this is a rule and the commissioner has gone in and fixed it this time. Has this happened in previous years? Because I see this all the time, like where commissioners step in and fix potential mistakes, egregious mistakes, obvious mistakes, you know, whatever the way you want to define it. And so if, oh, hey, this manager is doing something illegal, goes in and changes it. So was there a discussion between the Rice manager and the commissioner of who to replace the player with? Or did the commissioners do that on his. On his or her own? I think there's just some unanswered things here because if there's a history of this, then I think the one who's losing is just stuck.
- [48:31]
Adam Mazer
Well, I also don't think that you make a difference. I don't think you discern between tanking and bad managing. If the rule is that you have to have a roster with no suspended or no injured players, then that's the rule.
- [48:40]
Dan
Well, that means Rice should be out of the lineup, but I don't think that means you should be. The commissioner should be picking the player. I think it should be done after the week and it should be put the lowest scoring player in.
- [48:49]
Adam Mazer
Okay, that's a good solution. Yeah, that's a good solution. I like that. Okay, problem Solved.
- [48:56]
Jamie
Right?
- [48:56]
Dan
I guess.
- [48:57]
Jamie
And. And we also don't know like is the player that was put in the really the difference?
- [49:02]
Adam Mazer
Yeah.
- [49:02]
Jamie
Like did they put in Quentin Johnston for example, you know?
- [49:06]
Dan
Right. Yeah. Right.
- [49:07]
Jamie
Someone who we did not. The. The world did not expect to have a huge game. Except for Adam and any that you.
- [49:15]
Dan
Called that one too.
- [49:17]
Jamie
Sam Sander and Quentin Johnson. Week one. He said it three and a half years ago.
- [49:20]
Adam Mazer
I desperately. I, I in desperation started Quentin Johnson in a few leagues. But no, I didn't call that from Chris.
- [49:27]
Dan
How were you in a desperation position in week one? In a few weeks.
- [49:30]
Adam Mazer
Two of them are dynasty leagues, I think.
- [49:32]
Dan
Okay. Okay.
- [49:33]
Adam Mazer
The other one was a 14 team PPR league. I was expecting to start Christian Kirk.
- [49:38]
Dan
Okay, that's fair.
- [49:40]
Adam Mazer
All right. I have a problem in my league and I don't know what to do. Our commissioner sets an illegal lineup every week by adding more players to his bench than the app should allow. He keeps his extra player until the until the start of the Sunday games and then drops one. What. What should we do with him?
- [49:59]
Dan
Obviously kick him out and you just run your own league or you quit his league and start your own league. This is ridiculous. He's literally cheating. What's the explanation for this?
- [50:08]
Adam Mazer
I don't know. I. I played a league with. With the guy who does this all the time.
- [50:14]
Jamie
You're saying I do this?
- [50:15]
Adam Mazer
Yes, you do this. All this is the JB special all the time. No, but this is exactly what happened in the Dynasty league.
- [50:22]
Jamie
Most of it was absent minded, to be honest with you. And then part of it was me just messing with you because you decided to step in and reverse the trade that shouldn't have been reversed.
- [50:36]
Dan
Wait, you vetoed a trade? What was that one?
- [50:38]
Adam Mazer
Okay, listen, you got to turn your damn notifications on.
- [50:41]
Dan
I really do. I'm missing.
- [50:44]
Jamie
I had, I had an illegal lineup and then to fix my illegal line, instead of dropping a player I traded.
- [50:48]
Dan
Oh, you traded. Okay, that's fine.
- [50:49]
Adam Mazer
No, it's not fine. You cannot pick up a player without dropping someone to go over the roster limit and then make a 2 for 1 trade to your benefit because you happen to have an extra player.
- [50:58]
Jamie
It was not a two for one trade. And at the time there was no roster limits that were saying my lineup was illegal. You said my lineup was illegal. There was nothing in the rules that said my lineup.
- [51:07]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, you had too many players. You went over the roster.
- [51:09]
Jamie
There was nothing in the rules.
- [51:11]
Adam Mazer
I don't buy that.
- [51:11]
Jamie
Or I don't believe that. Listen, I've let you fix my. My errors according to you and have not complained once. You dropped the player off my roster. I did not complain. I gave you arbitrarily.
- [51:27]
Adam Mazer
I gave you two weeks to do that.
- [51:29]
Jamie
You did not give me two.
- [51:30]
Adam Mazer
I gave you at least a week. I gave you a week to do that.
- [51:32]
Jamie
No, you did not.
- [51:33]
Adam Mazer
I gave you at least five days to do that.
- [51:35]
Jamie
You did not. You said it on the air. I'm gonna give you till the end of the show.
- [51:39]
Adam Mazer
No, you're lying. I told you before that. I told you before that to do it and you didn't do it. And then I said it on the air and I gave you even more time after that. And then I texted you and I told you what to do and I said, if you don't do it by one o', clock, I'm dropping this player. And you didn't do it by one o' clock and I dropped that player. Everything I did was above board and quite kind, quite friendly on my part.
- [51:59]
Jamie
First off, there was nothing in the rules that said I could not have an extra player on my roster and then trade that player within the timeframe that I did it.
- [52:06]
Adam Mazer
What? Yes, there is.
- [52:07]
Jamie
You. You said this on your own in the chat. You did not have it in any league rules. Listen, I'm not arguing with you. I didn't. I did. I have not argued with you once throughout this entire process. I've let you run this thing however you wanted to and I've shut my mouth. Right?
- [52:22]
Adam Mazer
Oh, yeah. No, you've been a very.
- [52:24]
Jamie
Yeah, I have not complained.
- [52:25]
Adam Mazer
But you also. I. I also asked you on your.
- [52:28]
Jamie
Own, which player to cut from my team.
- [52:29]
Adam Mazer
No, I didn't. I told you who was gonna be and you didn't object.
- [52:33]
Jamie
I didn't answer you.
- [52:35]
Adam Mazer
I said, okay. I said, hey, you need to drop somebody by 1pm or I'm dropping Devin Neal. He didn't answer. He didn't drop anyone. So I dropped Devin Neal and I didn't complain.
- [52:45]
Jamie
Go ahead.
- [52:45]
Adam Mazer
Nor should you.
- [52:47]
Jamie
I mean, I obviously can, but.
- [52:49]
Adam Mazer
No, I'm looking at it now. Please drop one more player by 1pm after that, I'll drop Devin Neal. Jamie says, quote, okay, if I forget and you do, I'll drop guys from fft.
- [53:04]
Dan
I like that. I like that a lot. You know what we did in our league? We had this issue in our league, and so we just said whatever the site allows, we allow. So if a player is ruled out and you can put them on ir, the site allows it. We allow it. It's so much better than the policing. It's so much better than commission has to look through every. And I'm the commission this league. I'm not looking through every roster, making sure nobody's doing this like the every week. That's ridiculous. But it's just easier to go by what the site allows, honestly.
- [53:29]
Adam Mazer
Okay, but in this case of this commissioner who's hoarding players until Sunday, keeping them from the rest of the league and then dropping them before the lineups.
- [53:36]
Dan
Lock, everyone should just do what the commissioner does.
- [53:39]
Adam Mazer
I mean, you could do that.
- [53:40]
Dan
It's just easier to just do the site allows. It's just the self policing stuff just gets so messy.
- [53:46]
Adam Mazer
All right, but I do need to.
- [53:47]
Dan
Say one thing about the big burger dynasty league. I scored 193 points in week one and I'm in first place by a mile. After Adam and Jamie both criticized my guillotine chop, which deserved criticism, I had to put that brag in.
- [53:59]
Adam Mazer
I. You know what? This is the place. This is a safe space to brag. Good job. I wouldn't even call that a humble break.
- [54:04]
Jamie
Figure out if I want to just.
- [54:05]
Dan
There was nothing humble about that.
- [54:07]
Jamie
No, if I want to just sell off the entire team and really just.
- [54:11]
Dan
I'm buying, like, just send me like.
- [54:14]
Jamie
Your worst trade offers.
- [54:15]
Dan
Okay. Okay.
- [54:16]
Adam Mazer
Oh, yeah, me too. Same here.
- [54:18]
Dan
Oh, I see what you're doing. You're hinting at interesting.
- [54:21]
Adam Mazer
Oh, you're gonna. Oh, you're gonna, like, ruin the league.
- [54:25]
Jamie
You would never do it.
- [54:27]
Adam Mazer
All right, we got some Apple podcast questions. This is from Hindsight. Dear Branded. Oh, I think. I think Dan will get this. Dear Brandon Ahmad, Tyrone and Ron.
- [54:39]
Dan
Oh, we got Giants running back.
- [54:42]
Adam Mazer
There you go. Grade the trade. Ppr.
- [54:45]
Dan
What a throwback. Do you remember Tyrone Wheatley?
- [54:48]
Adam Mazer
Oh, my mind was going Tyrone Tracy. But Tyrone Wheatley was, I think, the first Giants jersey. No, Rodney Hampton was.
- [54:54]
Dan
Okay.
- [54:55]
Adam Mazer
Do you remember Rodney Hampton?
- [54:57]
Dan
Of course I remember Rodney.
- [54:58]
Jamie
I have a very funny Tyrone Wheatley story that I will tell you off there. I cannot tell you anything. Okay, I'm interested.
- [55:05]
Adam Mazer
All right. I traded Nico Collins, Braylon Allen and Caleb Johnson for Ashton Genti, Chris Olave and Naji Harris. Nico, Braylon Allen and Caleb Johnson for Genti, Olave and Naji.
- [55:25]
Jamie
So basically it's Nico for Genti and other parts.
- [55:27]
Adam Mazer
I think Olave is more than just in other parts.
- [55:30]
Dan
It's basically Nico and Braylon for Olave and Genti. Because I do like Olave too. I still don't love the Trade. I think Nico's the best player in the trade.
- [55:39]
Jamie
So would you trade just on their own? Would you trade Genti and Olave to get Nico or vice versa?
- [55:46]
Dan
I would rather go.
- [55:48]
Jamie
I think I'd rather have Nico too.
- [55:50]
Adam Mazer
I think it's an even trade. Good job.
- [55:52]
Dan
It was very alarming though. I'm hoping it's just the Rams pass rush is so dominant and secondary. And secondary. But it looked really, really bad for the Texans. It looked like that offensive line was non functional.
- [56:07]
Adam Mazer
Okay. I think this might be a fantasy cop situation on Apple podcast from Grizz Paul. 11. I'm in a 32 team guillotine league. I had submitted the highest bid for Teteroa McMillan. However, unbeknownst to me, at some point yesterday, the app moved David Bell off of IR to my active roster and gave me an illegal lineup. I mentioned this in the league chat. The commissioner fixed it, the other manager complained and the commissioner switched it back. I started with Bowers and Mahomes, so. All right, anyway, forget that part. Should I get Tedro McMillan? The only reason he didn't get teteromcmillan is because the app moved David Bell off of IR into active roster without him noticing.
- [56:51]
Dan
No, he should get McMillan, in my opinion.
- [56:52]
Jamie
Then it was waivers.
- [56:55]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, it was fab. Fab.
- [56:59]
Jamie
So I'm confused. It didn't run because he had an illegal lineup.
- [57:02]
Adam Mazer
It didn't submit his bid. But he ended up with the. With the highest bid for McMillan. But I guess it didn't process it because he had an illegal lineup.
- [57:13]
Jamie
I've never heard of that before.
- [57:14]
Dan
Yeah, I'm not sure about that. That's on our site.
- [57:17]
Adam Mazer
No.
- [57:17]
Dan
Did he say. Okay?
- [57:18]
Jamie
I mean, if there's evidence that. That he had the highest bid, then yes, he should get him.
- [57:22]
Adam Mazer
It just kind of creates a little bit of a conundrum going forward. Because you know what if you did notice that someone came off your IR and you still made the bid anyway, and then you said, oh, I didn't notice. You know what I mean? So it's kind of like you might have to just go. Just stick with what the app does.
- [57:34]
Jamie
The player in question is David Bell.
- [57:36]
Adam Mazer
Yeah, I know, but why is David.
- [57:39]
Jamie
Bell still on a roster?
- [57:40]
Dan
I don't know.
- [57:41]
Adam Mazer
Good luck charm. This is from Bishop. Jc. Hey, Cooper. Terrell, Randy and Jerry.
- [57:57]
Dan
Cooper. Terrell.
- [57:57]
Adam Mazer
Randy.
- [57:59]
Jamie
I mean, they're receivers. Cooper.
- [58:00]
Dan
Oh. Oh, no, I think. But Terrell Owens, like, whatever.
- [58:06]
Jamie
But what's Randy Moss and Terry.
- [58:07]
Adam Mazer
Why would Cooper cup be in that?
- [58:09]
Dan
Yeah.
- [58:10]
Adam Mazer
Oh. Oh, Four NFL wide receiver greats that attended FCS schools.
- [58:15]
Dan
Oh, nice. That's cool.
- [58:17]
Adam Mazer
Yeah.
- [58:17]
Jamie
Did they all play for the Seahawks at one point? Did Randy Moss ever go to Seattle?
- [58:21]
Dan
No, no, no.
- [58:22]
Adam Mazer
I don't remember Owens on Seattle.
- [58:24]
Dan
Owens was on Seattle at the very end. Maybe. Where did he. He had some weird stuff going on at the very end. Owens.
- [58:31]
Adam Mazer
No, I don't think.
- [58:32]
Dan
I think it was Seattle, but he had something. It was somewhere weird at the end.
- [58:36]
Jamie
Buffalo. He went to Cincinnati. He went to Dallas. San Francisco.
- [58:41]
Dan
Just. Was it just San Fran and Cincy at the end?
- [58:44]
Jamie
Maybe it was the Bengals you're thinking of. That was. Oh, Buffalo.
- [58:46]
Adam Mazer
Buffalo and Cincinnati at the end.
- [58:48]
Jamie
Yeah. So no Seattle.
- [58:50]
Adam Mazer
All right, here's the question.
- [58:50]
Jamie
All four receivers are. All four of them are here. Excuse me.
- [58:55]
Adam Mazer
Pacific Northwest, as Dan would say.
- [58:59]
Jamie
Yes, it was.
- [59:00]
Dan
Yeah, Seattle's 100.
- [59:01]
Adam Mazer
The Pacific Northwest. Right. But San Francisco. Yeah, it is.
- [59:04]
Dan
It's more north. Yes, it is.
- [59:05]
Adam Mazer
Dynasty question. Right now I'm starting pits at tight end, but Fanon was my plan for the future. Has the future arrived? Should I be afraid of the Ravens D when it comes to tight end production? Do I keep or move Pits? If I move him to the bench. So what do you think?
- [59:22]
Jamie
I would play Fannin but I think it depends on and we should know this soon. Hopefully I'll check but Mooney and London status sounds like they're both going to play. If either one is out, then I would probably go pits just because there's so much upside in this offense. I'm very curious to see. This is another one of, you know, does week one carry over to the rest of the season because no Mooney but Pennix, anytime he was asked about Kyle Pitts was raving about him. We saw, you know, different role to a certain degree with the routes he was running and I do think I know the score didn't reflect it, but I do think that they're going to be in some shootouts most weeks because of how bad their defense will eventually start to look. So if you're getting that Kyle Pitts and Fanon, then you're in great shape. But for this week, if both receivers are playing for the Falcons, I would go with Fanon.
- [60:09]
Dan
I thought that was by far and away. I watched the tape. I thought it was by far and away the best Kyle Pitts has looked since he entered the NFL. From an explosiveness standpoint, he reminded me a little bit of what I saw at Florida. Now at the same time, all Harold Fannon Jr. Has done is break records. He was dominant last season. College football. No one cared. No one gave him credit for it. And then he looked awesome in week one. So I think it's a tough call. I kind of like them both moving forward, though. And I think you could be in a pretty good situation a few weeks from now with a chance to trade one of them.
- [60:39]
Adam Mazer
All right, let's get some YouTube questions here. I see this one that I want to read.
- [60:45]
Jamie
Quinton. Sean Judkins question. Multiply.
- [60:48]
Adam Mazer
What do you think about this comment, Dan?
- [60:51]
Dan
You know how I think about that? Once football season starts, I forget about baseball completely.
- [60:56]
Adam Mazer
Comments.
- [60:56]
Dan
I'll watch the play now. I'll watch every playoff game. But I don't want. I'm done. I'm done the regular season. Too much going on.
- [61:02]
Adam Mazer
Would you like. I'm gonna make this a music question. Would you like John Mayer over People are Strange if Bowers doesn't practice?
- [61:12]
Dan
Yeah, I think John Mayer is one of my favorite living artists right now. Watching him play in Dead and Company is unbelievable. Just. I think he was one of the best, if not the best live guitar. No, I can't say that because. What's that dude's name? Why am I blanking on it? The kid plays with the Allman Brothers reunion band. Why am I blanking on his name? Trucks. Yeah, Trucks.
- [61:32]
Adam Mazer
Trucks. That guy.
- [61:33]
Dan
Yeah.
- [61:34]
Jamie
No. Dallas got her.
- [61:35]
Dan
He's number one. But I'm gonna get Mayor. Put Mayor up there.
- [61:37]
Adam Mazer
All right. Would you like Michael Mayer over Brenton Strange if Bowers doesn't play?
- [61:41]
Dan
Oh, man, that's tough.
- [61:46]
Jamie
I. I would guess we're gonna get game time decision for Bowers.
- [61:50]
Dan
Yeah.
- [61:51]
Jamie
So you probably are going to start Strange just to be safe. But that's not a bad call, though. Mayor could be great.
- [61:55]
Dan
Yeah. Hit four catches in week one.
- [61:58]
Adam Mazer
Is Tedro McMillan a cell candidate? He seems really bad.
- [62:03]
Dan
No, I thought his tape was great.
- [62:06]
Jamie
If anything, you're gonna say bad about Teterella McMillan, it would be Bryce Young.
- [62:09]
Dan
And I think, yeah, that's, you know.
- [62:10]
Jamie
With the offensive line healthy, because that was a big reason why he started to look better at the end of the year. The offensive line started to play great. Then you should be very excited about McMillan. But is he a cell candidate? I think if you're getting something great in return, then sure. But any. I go back to the start of the show with the trade question. Like, you have a Mecca Abuka on your team. He's. He's the perfect sell high candidate.
- [62:33]
Adam Mazer
He may be awesome.
- [62:34]
Jamie
Rest away. You got an older Mike Evans and an injured Chris Godwin coming back. And what we saw, Week one could be the start of something great. But there's something's going to change. And so what is going to change? We don't know. Godwin may not be ready till week six. Evans may be another hall of Fame caliber season, who knows? But I, I think in the case of like a player like McMillan, like if, if somebody like Dan, for example, is really coveting him, really excited about him, you take advantage of that and.
- [63:00]
Dan
Dan may be right.
- [63:01]
Adam Mazer
There's, there's.
- [63:02]
Jamie
There both could be right. Right. Dan may get the player that he wants and thinks is going to be fantastic and maybe giving you, let's say a Trevion Henderson because he's got a great backfield and, you know, is looking to make a move. And you're buying in on somebody that could be fantastic, too. Like, it's not always a. I won the trade. Both people can win the trade.
- [63:18]
Adam Mazer
Sure. Okay, Half ppr. Should I drop Ray Davis, Trey Benson, or Naji Harris to make room for a defense?
- [63:29]
Dan
I think you can drop Naji Harris.
- [63:32]
Jamie
I think in the. Don't drop Trey Benson right now because.
- [63:34]
Dan
Yeah, that's for sure.
- [63:35]
Jamie
In week one, he's behind an older running back. In the case of Naji and Ray Davis, you have to ask yourself, if they become the starter, who has more value to me? And for me, the answer would be Ray Davis.
- [63:47]
Adam Mazer
Did you watch the Trey Benson tape?
- [63:51]
Dan
No, I didn't get a chance to, unfortunately.
- [63:52]
Adam Mazer
I'm gonna nickname him.
- [63:54]
Dan
What?
- [63:54]
Adam Mazer
His name is Bounce.
- [63:56]
Dan
You like? Oh, Bounce. Outside.
- [63:58]
Adam Mazer
He's always bouncing outside. He's always. And it worked. He had a really long run. I think he had a 50 yard run or something. No, Harvey had a 50 yard run. I can't remember. He had a long run. He did, Right. And. But he's. He is always. He's Ken Walker, basically.
- [64:13]
Dan
Yeah. RJ Harvey has that similar thing, too.
- [64:15]
Adam Mazer
Grade the trade gave up DK Metcalf, Keon Coleman and Crosky Merritt for Bucky Irving and Tyreek Hill.
- [64:25]
Jamie
You have potentially the two best players in the trade.
- [64:28]
Dan
Yeah, I think. I. I don't. Yeah, I like it minus the Tyreek part, but it's good enough. I want Bucky.
- [64:34]
Adam Mazer
Okay.
- [64:36]
Jamie
Win a trade by a lot.
- [64:37]
Dan
Yeah, I'll go away.
- [64:39]
Adam Mazer
Dan's haircut is really nice. Sutton. Yeah. Sutton Pearsall, TMac or Jacoby? Half PPR sudden.
- [64:48]
Jamie
Sutton, Sutton. That's a good group, though.
- [64:52]
Adam Mazer
Haircut sucks. Start two in superflex.
- [64:57]
Jamie
Just kidding. You can go.
- [64:59]
Adam Mazer
Hold on. I gotta read them for the audio audience. Dak, Trevor Lawrence, tua and Darnold start 2.
- [65:08]
Dan
Dak for sure. That's an easy one for me. Yeah, it's Trevor Tua. I really kind of want to go to a man with that matchup, but I don't know if I have the guts to do it. So I'll go. Trevor Lawrence.
- [65:21]
Adam Mazer
So Dave sent me a cool stat. Well, not so great if you want to start Dak Prescott. First of all, the spread in that game is four and a half points.
- [65:31]
Dan
Cowboys are crazy, right? Weird.
- [65:33]
Adam Mazer
Yeah. They should probably put a zero at the end of it, but he. Dave says Brian Schottenheimer is entering his 13th year of his life as a play caller in the NFL. In his prior 12 years, he called for 35 or more pass attempts in blowout wins. Those are 10 or more points. Twice in his entire career when his team has won by 10 or more points. 35 or more pass attempts two times in 12 seasons as a play caller. Every game. Okay. And then he continued. Dave said his past four games against the Giants have had very mixed results. One monster game with over 400 passing yards and four touchdowns in a blowout win, a modest 20.7 fantasy point outing in Week 4 last year, and two duds on low pass volume. In fact, every game except the Monster. Every game except the Monster had Prescott throw 30 or fewer times. So that is my concern. But I'm not as smart as Vegas. They've got it as a five point spread. Four and a half point spread. Hampton or Jalen Warren. Ppr.
- [66:44]
Jamie
I'll go Warren.
- [66:45]
Dan
Hampton for me. For sure.
- [66:47]
Adam Mazer
It better not be Warren. I'm gonna be mad if it's Warren.
- [66:51]
Jamie
Why can't they both be good?
- [66:53]
Adam Mazer
That's not how this works. It's a zero sum game. I don't really know what that means, but it felt right. DK Pearsall, Swift, Henderson. Half. PPR sit 1. DK Pearsall, Swift or Henderson? Henderson.
- [67:10]
Jamie
I'm gonna sit Swift.
- [67:15]
Dan
I don't know if this is PPR or not. I can't really tell half. Okay, I. I'll. I'll sit Swift. I kind of want to sit Pierce all, but I'll sit Swift.
- [67:27]
Adam Mazer
You know the Bernie Max scene in Bad Santa where he keeps going half? He's trying to negotiate the money. Just keeps saying half. No, I think about that all the time in this show. PPR start. Hawkinson or Fannin?
- [67:41]
Jamie
Fanon.
- [67:42]
Dan
Yeah, Fanon for me. If we're listen, if we're starting, I agree. But if we're starting Fanning over Atkinson, can we at some point when are we going to get to the point where we say this Hawkinson take by me that I took a lot of heat for it might be this might not be the sheriff I took more heat for it on beyond the box.
- [67:57]
Adam Mazer
Floor is correct and you're I'm supposed to know the take.
- [68:00]
Dan
The take is that he was undraftable at his adp.
- [68:03]
Adam Mazer
Oh, I don't agree with that.
- [68:04]
Dan
But it if we're not starting him in week two over Harold Fan and he was literally undraftable of his adp, you're just burning a pick that you could use for running backers.
- [68:12]
Jamie
Weren't you a Mark Andrews guy, though?
- [68:14]
Dan
Not really, no. I had him ranked like 14th in my tight ends. I was a weight. I was a wait for Kincaid Loveland type of guy. Or take Bowers or McBride.
- [68:25]
Adam Mazer
Bench 2. Metcalf. Better. Call Piersol.
- [68:28]
Dan
Better.
- [68:29]
Adam Mazer
Good one. Pollard, Pickens, Travis Hunter, Keenan Allen.
- [68:34]
Dan
Why can't you think of stuff like that?
- [68:36]
Adam Mazer
Oh, come on. I've got such great team names. Dk Metcalf. You know what? I'm gonna come up with a team name right now for our FFT league that we're all in. So. Yeah, sorry. Bench two. Dk Pierasol. Pollard, Pickens, Hunter, Keenan Allen.
- [68:53]
Jamie
Allen and Hunter.
- [68:55]
Dan
Hunter for sure. For me. I really like Alan. I'll bench Pollard and Hunter.
- [69:04]
Adam Mazer
I have got some very good possibilities for team names. I've got Jalen Hurts. He's great for team names. I've got both Warrants. I've got Pierce all. I've got Nico. I've got a Chan. I've got golden. Your team names and I got Purdy. This roster is.
- [69:25]
Jamie
Just give me. Give me your players again.
- [69:27]
Adam Mazer
Hertz and Purdy. Achan, Nico, Golden, Pierce, All Tyler and Jalen. Warren.
- [69:38]
Jamie
What's your record?
- [69:39]
Dan
Party. But it hurts 10.
- [69:42]
Jamie
Thought I was golden, but now it hurts.
- [69:44]
Adam Mazer
I do have Zach Ertz also. Well, I didn't even tell you that rushing it did. No, I said hurts.
- [69:53]
Jamie
Oh, you have earth and hurts.
- [69:54]
Adam Mazer
I have earths and Hertz and Pierce all. And Warren. And Warren. Wow. I don't have enough time to think.
- [69:59]
Dan
Of way too much ammo. You got to figure something out there.
- [70:02]
Adam Mazer
