| 0:00.0 | Week 17 in the NFL with a million dollars up for grabs. |
| 0:03.0 | And you want to win that, right? Well, let's discuss. |
| 0:05.0 | It starts with the $9,000 Christian McCaffrey, who is by far, in my opinion, the best play on the slate. |
| 0:11.0 | He should be 50% owned, but he won't be. |
| 0:13.0 | You see, this week McCaffrey is going to be facing the Raiders who allow the third most catches to the running back position. |
| 0:17.0 | But the reason why McCaffrey is so, so appealing has to do with the wide receiver |
| 0:22.1 | position this week, most notably the expensive receivers. So check this out. Outside of Justin |
| 0:27.4 | Jefferson, who's $500 more than Christian McCaffrey had a lower projection, so let's X him out |
| 0:31.4 | for a second, everybody else is going to be facing or using a backup quarterback, Tyree Kill, |
| 0:35.5 | Devante Adams, AJ Brown potentially, DeAndre |
| 0:38.2 | Hopkins, Jalen Wattle, Devontas Smith, potentially. That's all the guys above $7,000. |
| 0:42.5 | So for the most part, a lot of that upper wide receiver range is an avoid because you're |
| 0:46.1 | overpaying for a guy who has likely a not so talented quarterback now filling in. |
| 0:50.4 | Okay, so that's why McCaffrey is so appealing and why he should be really high-owned, but what about a cheaper running back? I'm looking at Jamal Williams, $5,000 this week. Look, |
| 0:57.5 | he hasn't scored in three straight games. And when Jamal Williams doesn't score, he doesn't do |
| 1:00.6 | anything. He's under four points in those three straight games because he doesn't have a touchdown. But |
| 1:04.4 | this week, oh, he has the Savior. And that savior is not Jesus himself. No, it's the Bears number 30 ranked run defense. Not to mention, the lines |
| 1:11.7 | actually have the highest team total at 29 points this week, so expect multiple touchdowns and a lot |
| 1:16.8 | of chances for Jamal Williams. Okay, so the wide receivers up top aren't that appealing, |
| 1:20.2 | but the midrange definitely is. Track Christian Watson because at $5,900, he is an absolute must-play, |
| 1:25.4 | the best leverage play at the wide receiver position on the slate if he's active. |
| 1:28.4 | You see, last week, in basically just a half of play, he saw a career high eight targets |
