| 0:35.9 | Today on FFTN-5, three of my favorite bounce back candidates for the 2021 season. Let's get it cranked up. |
| 0:43.7 | All right, welcome into this edition of FFTN5. This is a quick little fantasy football nugget show to help you get ready just for your day, just something to put on your mind. |
| 0:53.6 | And then later on the main show, fantasy Football Today, you can go ahead and check that out. You can download it on Spotify.

If you're watching me and you see I'm wearing a hat because my hair looked like crap this morning bounce back. There were some awesome guys that bounced back. |
| 1:15.3 | We had Matthew Stafford and if we had him, we had Cooper Cup, James Connor, Debo Samuel |
| 1:19.4 | Zach Hertz, man, the AFC and NFC West, they were filled with bounce back guys. My first |
| 1:24.0 | bounce back candidate, kind of obvious Lamar Jackson got hurt late last year, really sent the Ravens offense into the tank after that. |
| 1:31.3 | And he wasn't really outstanding before he got hurt. He was still good, definitely gave you a lot of rushing production. |
| 1:38.2 | And I think he's going to be able to continue doing that. I don't see this Ravens offense changing that much. |
| 1:42.9 | And now with the news that they're sniffing around Melvin Gordon, does that mean that the run game could be a little suspect? That means that Lamar Jackson will have to shoulder more of that load. He already had about 30% of the rushing reps last year and the year before that as well. So I think that there's really an opportunity for him to continue pouring on those rushing numbers. And then the passing |
| 2:00.8 | numbers, hey, if they had a receiver in the draft, they'll be really on fire there. And they're doing the best they can to improve their offensive line so that Lamar gets a little extra time to throw down field. You're looking at a top five fantasy quarterback in Lamar Jackson. A running back that some people are afraid of because of injuries, Sequan-Barkley, it's two years in a row that Sequan Barkley's gone down with a significant injury, fantasy |
| 2:21.4 | owners, running back that some people are afraid of because of injuries. Sequan-Barkley, it's two years in a row that Saquan-Barkley's gone down with a significant |
| 2:20.6 | injury. Fantasy owners are going to be kind of leery to take him on. It's interesting that they won't be as leery to go after Christian McCaffrey. You'll see Christian McCaffrey go with a first-round pick. but Sequant Barkley, who used to go with an early first round pick, he's going to be more like a round three, round four type of choice. |
