| 0:00.0 | All the news you need to know right now on fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:10.3 | All right, Adam Azer here with Dave Richard. |
| 0:12.3 | Very exciting. |
| 0:13.9 | Dave Richard here. |
| 0:14.9 | Let's get to the news. |
| 0:15.7 | Justin Jefferson has a sprained AC joint. |
| 0:18.3 | He is wide receiver 7 in ADP. |
| 0:20.7 | Does this matter? I don't think it does, but we need to learn a little bit more about it. If he's going to play all year with a harness over his shoulder, sometimes that happens when you're spraying an AC joint, that could be problematic. It could limit his catch radius, for example. So it's just something that we've got to keep an eye on. I'd be a little surprised if we saw him play in the preseason at this point. For now, yes, still a top 10 fantasy receiver. Washington wide receiver Curtis Samuel is making progress. He's doing individual work. May not play in the preseason. He's currently around eight or nine pick wide receiver 42 in between Mike Williams and Michael Gallup. This is Curtis Samuel. Meanwhile, Terry McLaurin is crushing it in practice. Ryan Fitzpatrick has built that chemistry with him. We've seen Fitzpatrick do that with his number one receiver before. And I think Logan Thomas deserves a little more attention. Everybody's ready to write him off because Alex Smith has gone. Those checkdown passes might be gone. I don't know. I think he's got a chance to end up being a top 10 tight end after all. DJ Chark had finger surgery. So this is a wide receiver battle in an offense. We're keeping a close eye on. He should be ready for the opener. He's still the first Jaguars receiver being drafted in round 7. DJ |
| 1:29.1 | Chark. Should he now no longer |
| 1:31.4 | be the first wide receiver, Jaguars |
| 1:33.6 | wide receiver drafted? I think you can make |
| 1:35.4 | the case for Leviska now. And Leviska |
| 1:37.2 | Shinald should be the short |
| 1:38.8 | area target |
| 1:41.1 | in Jacksonville. Maybe it gets a couple of |
| 1:43.2 | intermediate targets along the way as well. Could be good volume for him, definitely in Pville, maybe gets a couple of intermediate targets along the way as well. |
| 1:45.6 | Could be good volume for him, definitely in PPR, especially in those games that DJ Chark might miss |
| 1:50.3 | because of a finger injury or whatever else. |
| 1:54.4 | And Marvin Jones, quietly piecing together a good camp, he's going to be that old, reliable |
| 1:58.6 | outside receiver for Trevor Lawrence. I think all three of these guys should be drafted a little bit closer to each other. And it wouldn't surprise me if a week, 10 days from now, Levisca is the first one off the board. Chark a little overrated going in round seven. All right. There have been a few players that have been making headlines in camp. There have been a lot of them, really. But here are a few that I want to talk about. Buffalo running back, Zach Moss. He is winning the competition, according to a report. What do you make of that for Zach Moss? I've literally heard only one person say nice things about Devin Singletary lately. So I think Moss will be the guy, but just something that I can put out there for |
| 2:35.5 | everybody listening. |
| 2:36.9 | Ankle, knee, shoulder, hamstring, neck, toe, ankle again, that last ankle injury, |
