Transcripts

Welcome back to the Double I Show Fantasy Island, where we got you covered for everything fantasy. I'm Bombo here with Sweet Tea and r w King and we will be going through our starts. Sit your ass on the bench and wave wire pickups for week 12. Let me start off in this segment by letting everybody know last week I shit and sat back in it.

I told you guys to start Melvin Gordon against the Raiders and of course, Raiders played inspired Ball and got Melvin Gordon excommunicated out of the league. Cut this guy. I think this, it was a home game and I think he might have walked to his house. Yeah. So sometimes we get him right, sometimes we get him wrong.

But that's in the all in the spirit of playing. We're here to have fun.

Babo. You know, they called him an Uber

Yeah, he got, he got

They didn't, they didn't want him on the bus. So, you know what? Hey Melvin, just so you know, there's an Uber coming for you, bro. Don't even go in that way on the bus, dude. Just,

call out that door.

you. You know what I mean? Yeah. They're a classy organization, Doug.

They hooked him up with an Uber bro. Come.

Well, hopefully this week the gentleman and I can give you guys some better advice than that, but sometimes we hit, sometimes we miss and we just try to do what we can for the listeners and do what we can for teams. So

we go down swinging, bro. We go down swinging. All right? Yeah. I, I ain't going up there looking at strike three, Doug. way. I'm going down swinging bro.

So King, let us know who you're swinging it. Who's doing the swinging for your team? Who's a must start for you in week 12.

Well, first of all, I wanna wish everyone happy Thanksgiving. It's happy Thanksgiving week. Happy Thanksgiving, guys. You know, Goble, Goble. It's fucking the best time of the year where there's three games on a fucking weekday. I love it, but I think this week it's gonna be, you know, there's some good matchups out there.

But you know, I had to pick a matchup where I looked at it and said, okay, look, who's been sort of not, I'm not gonna say Struggl. but he hasn't been really doing what he's supposed to be doing. And I think it's a good chance to really, when guys are thinking, okay, maybe I'm not gonna play him. He got a little banged up a couple weeks ago, this last weekend.

He got fucking WWE e suplex. But my start of the week is gonna be Damien Pierce from the Houston Texans, Damien Pierce, pretty solid. So you, I know everyone's got 'em in there and their lineup's probably already. Unless they're stacked, they don't really know, but play him. Who's playing? Miami? Miami. And to me, Miami's gonna get a big lead on them.

But the thing about Houston is they don't go away from what they do. It doesn't matter. They're down the touchdown, down two touchdowns. They don't start slinging the ball all over. And then this week it came out that Davis Mills got benched. So they got a new quarterback in there. They're gonna protect him a little bit more and just continue running the ball 20 to 25 times.

Dian. Great solid pickup. If you guys got him, you know, in the draft, if you guys traded for him, even better. But my must start Damien Pierce against the Miami Dolphins this week, week 12, Thanksgiving week.

Nice. I think he is due for a bounce. And we've been saying it all year. Damien Pierce is that offense. And if you're gonna take a little bit of pressure off of the new starting quarterback, Kyle Allen tank season I think giving Dian Pierce the run and just letting him take care of taking most of the, the runt of that offense and, and really being the engine that'll get anything.

If they're gonna get yards, they're gonna get it from Damien Pierce. They just need to get 'em more involved in the passing game for all of our PPR players out there.

I mean, I mean, reality though, guys, we, we didn't really talk up Davis Mills ever at any point. We knew what he was. Everyone knew what he was. I don't know why they just didn't let him finish the season. I mean, really What I mean, how, what are you really trying to get here? What are you trying to do?

Lovey Loveys trying to save his job.

Yeah, but I mean, you want that the best pick possible to get the best quarterback possible, right? Isn't that what you've been working this for?

Well, that's why they're

Watson for, and now you get the pick. You got another first round pick, you're gonna build your team up this year, right? I mean, that's what it's all about.

It happens like that. I don't know, man. I mean, I'm just. I don't know about that, but I, I still think Damien Pierce is gonna get, he just gets his, they never go away from it. He's gonna run the ball 25 times Sunday. Lock him up. Chain him up. Good to go.

start

Suplex, suplex, Dal.

All right, T, let us know who you got as your must start for week 12.

All right, so my week 12 must start has gotta be Tony. Guys, this guy's going up against the Giants coming in week 12. The Giants run defenses, you know, they got torched by Detroit last week. I, I mean, I, I love this, right? In their first meeting against the Giants, Pollard had 13 carry for 105 yards.

This guy is a solid RB two. The only reason why I would say he's not an RB one, cause he's really right now a borderline RB one is the fact that Zeke is the goal line guy and he gets the bulk of those goal line carries. If Zeke wasn't in the picture or if they just were giving polar more reps and getting him that goal line, look this guy's RB one all day long in your lineup.

Tony Pollard against the Giants must start. Rack 'em.

Yeah, for sure. Gentlemen, we can just, we can play the, the, the, the same game here and. . If you think of Tony Pollard's usage and hopefully the Cowboys, we always say it every week. These are guys that get paid way more money than us. Hopefully they see that they're winning games because Tony Pollard is getting big run.

Where do you guys have Tony Pollard rest of season and who? Who would you guys take over? Tony Pollard. I'll start it off. Are we taking Tony Pollard rest of the season over Deandre Swift?

Yeah, for sure. I'm taking Tony Paul just cuz of his availability, right? The best ability of any NFL player's availability and deandre Swift is never available man. So I, I'm taking, I'm taking Tony Poll at all points. And you know, and that's a good question, is who's he better then, and who would you take him over?

You know, and think of it this way, right? Tony Pollard, even with his limited touches, and I'm just gonna throw a couple names out, guys. I mean, and you gotta think about it, he's rivaling these guys. Would you rather have Tony Pollard with his productivity, knowing what he's putting up after the fact? Not guessing, but Tony Pollard or Josh Jacob. Right. Pretty close. I mean, they both had huge games, you know what I mean? So, I mean, what do you do there? Right. What about Tony Pollard and say even somebody like, I don't even, I can't even think of another guy close to him. You know what I mean? He's, he's up there guys. Davin Cook.

Think I

Yeah, he's, he's right up there with Delvin Cook. He's right up there with Leonard Ette. He's also with Ramon de Stevenson. You know, this guy's in

I gotta say this though, right? But, and in all fairness, the, the second tier of running backs, especially this year, is much lower than the first tier. And there's guys in that first tier sometimes that are hanging around. They're just, cuz they're names still a little bit, but they're not really producing.

But I. but it's just like running backs. I think overall in general, this year have underperformed. So guys who are having decent years, those look better this year than they would of years in the past. Does it make sense what I'm saying, guys?

Yep.

You know, so I think his, his stats this year make him look a lot better, but he's, I mean, man, they just gotta get this guy the ball.

And unfortunately Zeke being there, I just don't know how, what his ceiling will ever be. They just gotta get rid of Zeke. Get rid of Zeke.

Well for sure. Gimme Tony Pollard right now. Rest of the season over. Na Harris and Alvin Kamara. Two guys that were taken in the first round by far ahead of Tony Pollard. He's just proving his worth. I mean they were really trying to kill the clock against Minnesota and he had an ad yard receiving touchdown.

So I'd probably take him over Delvin Cook at this point too. And, and you know, even if Joe Mixon was healthy, I'd probably take him over Joe Mixon too. Cause Joe

Yeah. The only

shit except for one or two games.

that one big game, that was it.

Yeah, no, good point guys. Good start. T.

All right. I must start for week 12. Don't wanna cheat here and give you two guys, but I think these guys are just trending up on offense that's trending up in a matchup that they can totally take advantage of and gimme Rashad White and Chris Godwin from The Bucks right out of a buy.

Chris Godwin is already getting targeted like a monster. We know Mike Evans is gonna be Mike Evans, he's gonna get those big plays in the, in the end zone looks. But Chris Godwin is just a PPR nightmare and hopefully, you know, And for all of our listeners who are in ppr, you know what I'm talking about.

Chris Godwin can get you. He, he's getting 11, 10 to 11 targets every game. Turning those into seven catches. The yardage is gonna go, is gonna get there, and the touchdowns are gonna get there. He taught his first touchdown the week, two weeks ago, right before the buy. So you know he is gonna have that positive touchdown regression.

And Rashad White. Now they say that Lenny is. I guess healthy-ish cuz he can play. There hasn't been too many practice reports cuz they're coming out of a by, but I, there's no way he could be a hundred percent healthy from a hit pointer that he got 10 days ago. So I would say you gotta give the kids some run.

Rashad White has looked more explosive, he can catch the ball. He's able to do more with the minimal amount of holes that they're opening. And Rashad White is their first hundred yard rusher since week one when Lenny did it. So I'm not saying that it's gonna be Rashad White taking over this backfield, but I think if there was ever a game where he would shine and he would get.

The majority of the carries, it would be this game, especially against the Browns who their defense right now can't stop a nosebleed. You can do it in the, through the air. You can do it through the ground. And I'm just gonna say both their ground attack and the air attack is gonna be Rashad White and Chris Godwin.

Plus, we're dealing with divorced Brady. Divorced Brady's getting that ball out. He's got, he's got something to prove. He's married to the game now. So gimme inspired Tampa, giving it to the Browns with Rashad White and Chris Godwin going.

Yeah, it's a good point, Bombo. I do wanna say that Rashad White probably is the better, safest bet right now because, You know, everything that I've been hearing about Fort coming out with his hip and everything is they're saying that it's still really pretty sore for him. So he's not a hundred percent, I I, I would bet that he's probably closer to 75 to 80%, and that's gonna limit him.

I, you know, he's a baller, he's a gamer. He's gonna do it, but I don't know how effective he's gonna be. And before he got hurt, we saw Rashad White with limited touches being much more of an effective and efficient runner. So, I like me some Rashad White. I think he's gonna be the big guy that's gonna shine this week for them.

Yeah,

All right, guys, guys, guys, guys, guys, you're just not listening to the king man. Let me tell you how this is gonna go. All right. This is the deal on Lenny Fornet. Lenny Fornet can. , he can go a hundred percent. They don't need him to go. The kid looked good. I think what they realized in the last game was maybe the problem with the running game wasn't necessarily the fucked up line. Cuz you know what? In Houston that ain't the fucking problem either. So they got a kid with some juice back there, right? Lenny ain't got no juice left. You know what if this kid comes out this week and he balls. Lenny's hip's gonna be fucked up. If the kid takes a shit, Lenny's gonna be fine and he'll be back in the week next week. Okay. That's really the deal on Leonard for the rest of the year. Right. And it's, it's like we, they talked about, you know, I mean yeah. Clyde Edwards, Larry goes down, put 'em on the ir No, I'll be good in a couple weeks. No, no,

No, no, no. Yeah, you're

You're good.

Yeah, you're all right. Yeah, we got you.

We got you dog. Don't

to your health, you can't be

have, we're still sending the check to the same address, right?

Yeah, exactly guys. So you, you get it now, right? So that's what's going on there and great call. The only concern with me, with Chris Godwin is they're playing outside in Cleveland and what the weather's like. Remember guys, we gotta start factoring in weather a little bit to the fantasy stuff. And it's hard for us just cause when we record what the fan, the, the weather out looks gonna be.

But obviously that last week Buffalo couldn't even play at home because of a snowstorm, so they had to move to Detroit. So all those things are getting into play if there's no weather. Yeah, I like it, man.

All right, those were your must starts, and sometimes the glass is half empty. And what we mean by that is you gotta have some guys that are going to ride the bench, sit your ass on the bench. Now's not your time. Week 12 has a few of those guys, we're gonna go through some of them for you. So King, why don't you let us know who you're sitting on the bench in Week 12,

Well, fuck. You got all philosophical on me, dude, with the half empty thing and it messed me up, man. I'm like, man. All right. I. Just listening to you like ready to do like a seminar or something. But hey, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, man, I wanted to pick somebody on a Thanksgiving day. Too bad. It had to be a must.

Sit your ass on the bench. But you know what, man? Here it is, bro. I'm throwing it out there again. Saquon Barkley, sit your ass on the bench. Primetime

Oh, yep.

guys. I do that every week. I know, man. And yeah, I get smacked around. Because you know what? I got the, I got the potential to, you know, don't sit back in your chair like fucking t like a haha.

Yeah. This guy's record sucks. I get it. I get it. I'm willing to take those big shots, dude.

You are what your record says you are.

but I land them I land them, Doug. All right. I'm saying sit your ass on the bench. Saquon. Look, all I gotta say is this. Everybody knows. That the whole Giant's offense is nothing but Saquon. If you can shut Saquon down, Danny Dimes is Danny Dimes, he's gonna throw 10 to you. You know what I mean? Whether it be 10 points or 10 fucking attempts at throwing picks, he's just, he's Danny Doug, so they're gonna shut him down. Cowboys got a pretty good d I think they'll be inspired at. think they'll, they came off a pretty good truing of Minnesota. I think that they're, they're ready to get a few days off of practice and the incentive is to beat the shit out of the giants and they're gonna go out there and beat the shit out of the Giants guys and CI as on the bench. Saquon Barkley, gobble, gobble. Happy Thanksgiving to everybody. about.

Well, hopefully you guys have someone on your bench that can Support your running back one role cuz Saquon's gonna be on your bench so you got somebody that can definitely fill in. T. What do you think about Saquon and benching Saquon in a bad match up?

You know what? I'm gonna buck the trend with King on this one only because of the fact that. . That is the only guy that they have. And quite honestly, I'm gonna tell you right now, that run front of Dallas is the only weak link in their defense because they're built that way. They, they're gonna let them run on them, not get those big chunks, but they're going to, saquon's gonna be, it's gonna be a hard game.

But he's gonna be getting those five and six yard chunks. He's not gonna be able to break away into the secondary and, and get anything kind of big, but that's the way their D is set up. So he's just gonna feast on those smaller type of run plays, but he's gonna be a little bit effective. I think he's gonna be more effective than what King's giving him credit for.

But it's a tough one. I can see why King's saying that. But the bread and butter, the bread and butter is, is really in their second.

let's go. Let's go ahead and clarify here a little bit, guys. So, to me, a shitty day is to him right around that 50 50. Because a good day is a hundred either way and 50 on the other side, whether it be a hundred receiving 50, rushing a hundred, rushing, 50 receiving, that's a good day for Saquon, just cuz of his ceiling, his ceiling's, a hundred and a hundred plus, a hundred plus and a hundred plus.

That's his ceiling. We all know that. So if he has 50, around 50 and 50, that's not a really blow up day for Saquon guys. The chance of them being winning isn't that. . So that's what I'm saying. He's gonna be around that mark, you know, and that, think about it for, you know, a guy like Samage P Ryan, that's a huge monster game that's a hundred yards fucking, you know, total.

Right. So, but for Saquon that isn't. So let's just clarify there. But I think it'll be well below that, mark. But I think that's the top 50 50. And if you wanna put him in for that, put him in for that. But I think there's guys that can score more, and I don't think he's gonna get any touch. But that's just me.

Well, the match up favors. King sit, not gonna lie. T speaking of sits who you got.

Well, I'm going to stay with the Giants, and I actually had Danny Dimes. He's my must sit of the week. You know, the first time that these guys met this year was week three. I mean, the guy threw for less than 200 yard. He ran for 79 yards, but he also threw a pick. So I don't know. I really don't like the way that they've been playing ball as of late.

I don't really, let's face it, King's Wright, the only weapon that they really have is Saquon, and it's not their fault entirely. They're receiving cores completely deim. They're throw into just some dudes, anybody that they're pulling out of the stands right now. I mean, he's just really bad situation. But even earlier in the season, you know, they weren't playing really well.

Danny Dimes, to be honest with you, he just does not look good against Dallas. This Dallas D is just for real and this D's playing much better in week 12 than they were playing in week. So I gotta say right now, Danny Dimes not the kind of guy that you're gonna wanna start in your lineup right now.

So for me, sit your fucking ass on the bench. Danny Dimes,

I was gonna say probably the only, you know, it's probably like started in like 2% of the leagues and he probably starts on your, one of your teams T and you were probably just pissed at him cuz he took a shit last week.

three of them? No, just.

You got him on three teams. That's what I figured.

No. Fuck. No. No. Fuck no, no, no. But you know what? He's serviceable. I

Yeah. He is a good

No disrespect to him. He's a good streamer. And he's very

and he gets those rushing yards too sometimes.

Exactly. Exactly. And that's why I threw in.

Vanilla

That's why I threw in.

Vic.

Yeah,

Well, okay, the

in those rushing yards.

the other part is, you know what he, he scrambles a couple times and next thing you know they show his stat and he's got like 70 yards rushing and it's like, fuck. He eats up like five yards of stride.

Man,

He does. He does.

antelope or something out there, dude. It doesn't look like he's running that far. I'm just saying he

But that's what I'm saying. That's, that's what I'm saying. Like this guy we got, we got him to give him a little bit more love than what he's been getting all season because this guy's throwing to nobody and they've been winning.

gonna, I'm gonna buck your trend dog. I'm throwing my coconut and my shrimp out there, and I'm gonna say Danny Dimes has more rushing yards on Thanksgiving Day than Saquon Barkley.

Oh,

Oh fuck

call. the bookie. Call your bookie.

go bitches. Goble. Goble. How about that? Huh? Fucking choke on that one. Turkeys, huh? There's a little Thanksgiving Turkey for you.

Now that's the kind of quality content that we, let me bring you guys. Let me just go out there just to let everybody know I don't know who the locks are and who's gonna win every game this week, but a certain lock in my mind is the giants are beating the Cowboys on Thanksgiving.

I'm just throwing that out there right now. I'm just I just have a feeling that's Danny Dimes will have a bad game. Saquon will have a bad game, but for some reason, the Giants are gonna beat the Cowboys on Thanksgiving. So mark it down. Nfl. Right.

What.

fucking logic. No fucking logic.

think, I don't think they'll cover, man, but I think they're gonna win.

I just, I don't, I just, Hey, I've seen it

There's gotta be an upset on Thanksgiving. He's right. You know what I mean? So,

And they're come, they're coming off of that big win in Minnesota where they're wearing Kurt Cousins chain.

They're looking for a couple days off, you know what I mean?

So I'm gonna stay within the theme of things. And my must sit is coming from a Thanksgiving game and it more has to do with experience and analytics, or whatever you wanna call it, the trends. But it's, do Davin Cook against New England And it goes back to when King told you to bench Chubb going against New England and Chubb was coming off of a three touchdown game.

I think that New England knows how to beat you. New England doesn't believe that Kurt Cousins can beat them, so they're gonna have Kurt cousins try to beat them. And if you look at the, the success that New England has had defensively against the run, they do really well against feature running backs three down running.

CH guys like that and they struggle against committees. So I don't think that Minnesota's gonna wake up all of a sudden and then just start giving Madison and everybody else that they have back there along with Cook split carries to try to keep them off, off balance and try to keep New England guessing.

I think they're gonna go with their bread and butter. Run, run, play. Action pass. type deal and New England has something for that. They have something for everybody. It's a really good defense. They may not be, they're, Hey, new England games will put you to sleep faster than Thanksgiving, Turkey. But that's because they play the way that they wanna play.

They dictate the pace of the game against their opponents.

Well, I think, aren't they like Washington Bumbo, you think? Like they, they can pressure the quarterback without blitzing. You know what I mean? And that's what happens. And that's, and last week Kurt Cousins was put on his ass a hundred times. Imagine what's gonna happen this week. know? And these guys are just so fundamentally sound on the line play, and I think they concentrate on that.

Yeah, I agree with you, man. I think that's a good call, man. I really do. I think it's, yeah, Davin Cook, he struggled this year to have some really good games and you know, they need him and they need him to perform and he just doesn't seem like he's, he's with it there. I thought the new coach would really get him going, but doesn't seem like he's, he wants to be there or he's not the same guy, maybe health wise, but

And I hate to be, I hate to be the guy that says stuff like, oh, well if you take away that 60 yard touchdown, because the reality is that 60 yard touchdown really was a thing. But minus chunk plays for Davin Cook. He's really just a plotter, right? That's what he's been getting there and they're not really trying to zone him out so that he can get stuff to the outside or, or get creative with it.

It's really clock

it? Isn't almost what I said too, like about running backs, bombo, is they need a rhythm. and they need that rhythm to get, you know, they get two, they get two, they get four, they get six, they get two, then they get 20. You know, he's not, he's never been in a rhythm and their offense isn't allowing him to get in that rhythm that he likes.

Now Justin Jefferson gets that rhythm.

Yeah. He gets, yeah, he gets everything, you know,

Mm-hmm. . Yeah. First couple throws of the game is all to Justin Jefferson, just to get him in that rhythm.

Yeah. Just to get him boiled up and fucking lathered up and getting to.

Now, I'm not saying that Dalvin cooks can have zero points. It goes back to what you were saying King would Saquon, it's just like expected points of what you think he's gonna get. His floor is just a little bit lower in these, where he might get 50, receiving 50 on the, on the ground for 10 points for you.

Maybe a couple catches here and there, but you know that T, that RB one production that you're expecting. I just don't expect it to come from Daven Cook in this. And it's a short week.

No good shit Bumble. Good shit, man.

All right, we're gonna go right into the guys that aren't on anyone's team. The waiver wire. The pick of the litter. So we're gonna go through it and each one of us is gonna let you guys know some guys that you need to take off the wave wire and add to your roster.

And. We're gonna start off with T. Let us know who you're picking up in the wave of wire this week.

All right, so I got two guys out there for you guys to kind of pick apart. So King, you're gonna, I know you're gonna probably pick me apart for at least one. But who cares? Anyway, my first guy is DeMarcus Robinson. He's only 5% rostered in ESPN leagues. Come on guys. This guy needs to be heavily rostered right now and why?

I'm gonna tell you why Bateman went out for the season. Robinson has become the number one ride receiver. Over the last three weeks, he's had 21 targets, 17 of those he caught, and last week alone, nine catches for 128 yards. This guy is a flex with an upside of a wide receiver two.

So for me, that's a must pick up off that waiver wire. Just stash him if you have too many guys. But I would definitely play him in as a flex because he's gonna probably continue to be able to get you a lot of good points. My second guy is Latavious Murray, 24% rostered Broncos cut, Melvin Gordon chase Edmonds is out with a high ankle sprain. So that backfield really right now is Murray and. Murray's been putting up 17 plus PPR points over the last four games, so, you know, and he had what, he's had at least one tudy four at the last six games.

So if you just need some points, if you just need to be able to plug him in because you got some guys on a buy. Thetas me's not a bad pickup at this point. All right. That's my two picks fucking roast me.

I don't, I don't think they're that bad. I mean, I like 'em both. I, to me, I think Lavias Murray's probably the, the one you want. If you're gonna get one guy and only have room for one guy, I'd probably go after him, you know, running backs from over a premium and he's gonna be the goal line guy, you know?

Sure. He is got a train hooked onto him, dude, and he runs like an eight flat 40. I get it. You know what I mean? But shit, dude, he's ready for, he's getting his A A R P in the mail and shit already, you know what I mean? can't blame the dude for being a little bit slower, but he's gonna get the rock, especially on the gold lines.

I think So, I think that's a pretty solid, you know, pickup. So what do you think Bombo?

Yeah. No matter what, Latavious, Murray always has a job like sticking with the theme of Thanksgiving. Latavious Murray is leftovers no matter what. He's, he's always there. It always hits, right. It's al. It's always, it's just what you need at that time, but it ain't the main course.

It's always leftovers and latavious. Murray's been that guy for Baltimore. Earlier in the year, he, I wanna say he got signed off the streets to the Saints and scored a touchdown on a Monday night game. And that's what got him the job here in Denver. And he hasn't let it go ever since. And you, we already talked about Melvin Gordon having to take an Uber home from the stadium.

So yeah, Latavious Murray solid. You can never have too much running back depth with just how guys go down. Do

And it really isn't like they could cut him right Bumbo cuz they know what he is and what they signed. You know what I mean? If you, if you don't want him, why you sign him? Me,

he's the deepest in the playbook right now for everybody that they have in that backfield.

probably goes out of practice with a cigarette and a beer and shit and his flip flops and you know, walks out on the field

Cheers, bitch.

Yeah. You know, like

bitch.

Yeah.

I mean, I'm just saying, right. I mean, fuck. I

'em to the stable. Pick 'em up. Add 'em to your

Yeah, I think so too, man. Good pigs, man.

so I'm gonna so I'm gonna go with a team that has been up and down all year, mostly down, but the offense has weapons and if you can get a stock in an offense that's trying to find an identity and, and move the ball. Do it, and you can get that with Foster Monroe.

Tight end for the Las Vegas Raiders. Look Waller's out. There's really no incentive to bring him back or rush him back with a soft tissue injury. It's bad enough that he's on ir. Renfro is on ir. There's semi tanking right now. But what they're really trying to do is see everyone's auditioning to see who's gonna be a part of this offense.

Once McDaniels and that new regime starts bringing in their hand pick guys. And Morro just has right now, like we always say, the best ability is availability. He's the available tight end, the past catching tight end. And so far since Waller has been on the ir, he's been the number two option in the passing game because for some reason, not really targeting Josh Jacobs the way that they should be targeting Josh Jacobs.

But if you saw the last game against Denver, In overtime. It was literally two plays, two passing plays, one to Fos Monroe for a big game, and one two Devonte Adams for a touchdown to send him off. I think he's, I mean, he's just coming off of playing 90% of the passing routes so that it's not like they have him out there just run blocking he's just not getting thrown to.

Obviously you wanna have Derek Carr be a gamer, sit down, watch film and realize I'm not finding this guy, this guy's open, this guy's not just out there doing cardio. And I think that they'll get it together. I'm not saying that he's gonna be the reason why they win games, but he'll definitely put up enough fantasy numbers outta volatile position to get you something outta the tight end position, especially if you're someone that lost Waller.

Godard or any one of these other guys. If you've been banking on Yoku and he's not healthy yet, pick up Foster Monroe. He's probably available, and just plug him in and see what happens. It, it's better than, and I'll say it again, it's better than throwing Kyle pits out there every week. So maybe you're a Kyle

dude, I, Hey, I got, fuck. I got relieved from

the moons

from that duty dog. He's on the IR

there. Now

done for the

people don't have to be stuck with that decision. The decision was made for 'em.

It's what I said, wasn't it last week or the last show or the one before? You just, I, I gotta ride that car

Yeah. Right until the wheels fall off.

don't like it, and I don't wanna miss his only touchdowns of the year, man. You know what I mean? So, yeah. No, no, no. I, I'm with you, man. And I like Foster Mariah.

I like what he brings. Just that offense is so inconsistent, and I think they're forcing it a little bit now, and they really want to show that they're better than what the record says. And I believe they. I think you hit the fucking nail on the head. Bombo is, these are not Josh McDaniel's guys. These are not what the guys, he wants to be on that team and needs for his offense. So, you know, until that happens, we're really not gonna see the best of all these guys and what they can do in his offense. And I guess you gotta give the guy some time and a crack. But I like posture Morrow.

Well, especially with Waller, gonna be shipped out in the off season.

Oh, he doesn't want to be there. Waller. Yeah. He's sitting in Cancun right now or doing something, you know what I mean? He's, yeah. He's not hurt. Yeah. Half the time these guys, they say they're hurt. They're not hurt, Doug. They're sitting by their pool somewhere during the day, fucking getting a massage. You know what I mean?

Something like that, but nah.

All right, king, let us know who you're picking up off the wave wire this week.

Which man, I mean obviously cuz my teams are just loaded and I always pick guys who never get injured. I don't have to use the waiver wire ever. Yeah. Just kidding, man. My, I got every team of mine is decimated this year with injuries, dude. But anyway, you know, I'm not even gonna go there and cry like I was crying earlier to you guys, you know?

But anyway, I, I got a couple guys and one of them. Is a, a guy, a running back rookie running back in Arizona, ke Ingram. And he was already getting a little bit of run when Eno Benjamin was there and James Connor was out. But that shit that happened with Eno Benjamin was a little bit weird and they shipped him out.

You know, they basically called an Uber for him, you know, and said, Hey dude, get outta here. We don't want you around. it elevated this guy pretty quick and it's not like he's really blown up and he really hasn't had the, that, those big opportunities. But what I'm looking at is just the history and the history of the guy in front of him, James Connor, who runs very hard and the teams are sort of, seems almost, they're diagnosing when Arizona's running the ball.

They got a tell, they got a couple tells. I was watching the game the other night and Frisco was just eating their ass on the run. So they are showing something that they're picking up and, and on film, cuz it just seemed like Frisco knew every time they were running. And James Connor's like one of those guys who always gets in his own way.

He runs so hard, he's gonna hurt himself. And I'm banking on that. And at that point, this kid's gonna be the main guy by default. There's really no one else there. So if you got him on your bench and you got him. you know, you got a guy that can potentially be an RB one, come playoff time and really help you out if you need it.

You know, especially in that pinch where maybe a guy goes down and you've been decimated, you limped into the playoffs, and now you need a guy. You never know what can happen. This guy might end up being the fantasy stud that you need and the ship con out. But Keon Ingram running back Arizona. Cardinals my second guy. A guy who just got put on a 21 day window off of the ir the, the season pup or whatever it was when he came in the season. Hasn't played it down this year, but he was a highly touted, wide receiver, number one wide receiver in the draft. Jameson Williams and this guy, I just believe he just can't wait to get on the. And I think he's better than all the, the rookie receivers in the draft this year. Crystal lave tray on Burkes. All these guys who are really starting to show out and really starting to show what they can do and make an impact on their teams immediately. You know, and I think looking at it historically in the last couple three seasons, we talked about that shift and how it used to be, never draft a rookie wide receiver cuz they never got to.

put up a thousand yards easy,:

But they just gotta get him up to game speed and a little more conditioning at this point. So the injury might not be a factor. Who knows ma'am, but draft him now. Get him on your waiver wire now before the game tomorrow and Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving again to everybody, but pick him up before the Thanksgiving game so you don't gotta scramble for it the following week, cuz he's gonna be in the headlines in the news.

But those are my two waiver wire pickup guys. What do you think?

Dash Jameson Williams on your IR spot if you have an IR spot. This guy's a stud. Hey, hey, I'm gonna throw this out there to you guys with what you see. Detroit doing with these offensive pieces and what you see the Jags doing with like the Calvin Ridley and Ingram coming into his own. I think we're a year away from seeing those two teams as big fantasy point factories.

Regardless of how many games that those signing teams will win, and I. They can, they can support a lot of fantasy players on that team.

Let me throw this out then. Let me throw this out before you go tee real quick, just to say we stay on this Detroit thing. Do you think that these receivers there, Aman Ross, St. Brown, all these guys on offense, Jameson Williams, can they be fantasy relevant with Jared Golf

yes, as long as it's those two, I think it's gonna be those two. And I know there's DJ Shark there, and I know that, that, that Reynolds is there. But

those guys are just

they're dis filler in pieces because

you know, but I, I just, I just believe, man, I think they're gonna draft a quarterback this year, guys.

oh, I, they,

I just think that the quarterback, the draft classes. Yeah. And I think there, there's gonna be a high enough pick where they're gonna have to play 'em, and they're gonna either have to ship golf or talk golf into be in a backup, you know?

And I don't know if God's ready to be a backup. He could be a starter in this league on a lot of teams. But sorry to cut you off t I hope you remembered what you were.

Yeah, no, I was just gonna say, I really like that Williams pickup. He's coming back healthier now, it, it is just gonna make that receiving court just all that much better, you know, only because of the fact that. . You know this guy balled out in college.

We know what he did before he blew out his acl. But not just that. Guys, think about this. I know that DJ Char is, you guys are saying it's a filler piece, but he's starting to get healthy too from an ankle injury. So if you factor in, you got Saint Brown, you got Williams, and you got Shark's, a good number three receiver over there, that's a really solid receiving court in the back half of this.

I really like what that's gonna be able, the potential there is, and Williams is probably gonna become that number one receiver over there for them. At least he has that potential to be able to be able to do that as soon as he comes in. Now everything that I've been hearing is he's not gonna be returning to practice until after Thanksgiving, so we'll probably see him probably in week 13.

I don't expect a ton out of him from week 13, but 14 and on. Yeah.

He practiced Monday, he was activated and he was on the practice field Monday he, he opened that

From what I, okay. Yeah, cuz I didn't hear that. I just heard that they were hoping that he'd

you know, he's already practicing. They need to get him in game shape guys. Yeah. He can't just, you know what I mean? He, he's been riding a bike. He hasn't been able to practice in any pads and do any of that shit with the team, you know, cuz he is on that list. They could, they're only restricted to do so much, you know what I mean?

So they don't want to get in trouble. So they gotta get 'em in game shape and two days or three days wasn't enough cuz they're playing tomorrow, Thanksgiving day. You know what I mean? So they'll wait till probably the following week and worst case scenario, the next week after that, if there's any setbacks with him.

And the good thing about Detroit is even if they're not playing for anything, they'll let their guys get run. That's what, that's why we all know who Amman Ross St. Brown is because last year they were playing for nothing and they were just letting, they were just seeing what they got and they

Aman RA led fantasy in points in the playoffs

come on.

Yep.

You know what I mean? And that's cuz Yeah, cuz they were behind and Jared Goff threw for 400. Jared Goff. He could have been a championship quarterback if he had the nuts to play him.

Yep.

You know, really he was going off that much.

Well that's gonna do it for our week 12 starts, sits and wave wire pickups. Bombo for Sweet Tea and r w King. Till next time, we are out.
