| 0:00.0 | Big NFL news right now on fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:07.9 | Let's get right to it. |
| 0:08.8 | Adam Azer, Jamie Eisenberg. |
| 0:10.7 | So Tom Brady's back. |
| 0:12.3 | Tom Brady's back. |
| 0:13.0 | He was the number two quarterback in fantasy last year, both full season and per game. |
| 0:18.1 | Just crushed it, Jamie. |
| 0:19.2 | Why can't he do it again? |
| 0:21.0 | I know you got him. |
| 0:21.9 | Fifth or sixth, you're debating that right now, but yeah, it's exciting that he's back and what do you think about his outlook for 2022? He obviously can do it again. You know, the fact that Chris Godwin is back with the bucks on the franchise tag. I'm sure we'll get the news this week that Rob Garnkowski is back or new soon that Rob Garnkowski is back as well, |
| 0:38.4 | because why wouldn't they run it back one more time? Mike Evans is still playing at the top of this game. We'll see what they do to replace Antonio Browns, or replace potentially Leonard Fornett or Ronald Jones or both. And so as long as he has, you know, consistent weapons like we expect him to, an offensive line that's going to help him, a division and a conference that is seemingly falling apart by the minute, depending on how all these quarterback dominoes fall. So it's a great situation to beat Tom Brady right now, which I'm sure why he looked at this and said, why not run it back one more time. So has top five potential. Um, you know, hopefully he continues to play at this level. We know he just doesn't run. That's clearly a drawback for what we look for as fantasy quarterbacks. |
| 1:14.5 | But when you. has top five potential. You know, hopefully he continues to play at this level. We know he just doesn't run. |
| 1:11.7 | That's clearly a drawback for what we look for as fantasy quarterbacks. But when you throw the ball as much as he does, in the offense that he plays for with the weapons that he has, it's hard not to be excited about Brady, even at 45 years old. And his receivers, if they're both healthy for week one, Evans and Godwin and let's say Gronk is back. How do you rank those guys? |
| 1:30.2 | Evans over Godwin, and let's say Gronk is back, how do you rank those guys? Evans over Godwin in non-PPR. Godwin over Evans in PPR and half. I probably lean Evans just because of the touchdown potential, but obviously Godwin has been amazing when Antonio Brown has not been on the field. It's just a matter of where is he at with his health right now. So when we get to the start of the season, I know you phrase it this way, but I'll |
| 1:47.2 | just reiterate if we get to the start of the season and he's healthy, I'll probably take Godwin |
| 1:49.9 | maybe across the board. But I think it's just, you know, I give a slight lean to Evans because of what his touchdown potential can be. So, uh, |
| 1:56.6 | gronk is the top 10 tight end, you know, |
| 1:58.3 | better in non-PPR than PPR. Again, |
| 2:00.3 | touchdown potential matters for him, but, |
| 2:01.8 | um, this is an offense you should be excited about because with Bronc is the top 10 tight end, you know, better in non-PPR than PPR. Again, touchdown potential |
| 2:01.0 | matters for him. But this is an offense you should be excited about because with the quarterback there, you know, I was a little concerned if it was going to be a Blaine Gabbert, a Kyle Trask. You know, I heard that the combine from some people that I trust that, you know, Teddy Bridgewater was an option for them if they missed on all these guys, you heard, Bakerfield maybe was a target option as well in trade um but brady back just makes these guys feel so much safer and so much better and reason to be excited about them once again yeah and teddy bridge broader does have the same initials as tom brady so in that respect it's fun you mentioned that i was messing with a buddy mine mine who's a huge Bucks fan. And I said, |
| 2:35.2 | his name's Tom, by the way. I said, hey, Tom, you're in good shape. TB is going to be your |
