Welcome back, everybody, to the Football Guys Daily Update.

0:03.2

You give us 10 minutes. We'll give you everything you need to know to make you the most informed fantasy football player in your league. I'm Mike Dempsey alone with Football Guys own Bob Harris. And Bob, we are inside a week from the start of the NFL season. And it's not something we'd normally talk about. It was such a big deal that we've got to at least mention the Packers, send Kenny Clark

0:01.4

and a couple of first round picks

0:02.6

to the Cowboys normally talk about it was such a big deal that we've got at least mentioned the packers

0:20.9

sent kenty clark and a couple of first round picks to the cowboys for micha parsons uh i guess

0:27.1

from our perspective bump the green bay defense special teams is that fair well you and i draft

0:32.3

defenses that share certain characteristics chief among them are disruptive playmaking assets and Micah Parsons is that.

0:39.1

It's interesting, Bill Barnwell put out a tweet from ESPN.

0:47.5

Across the 139 play sample, they're the league's second worst defense over the same span when he's not on the field. So what does this really

yesterday with the cap injury. That's got at least put a little concern in you, doesn't it?

1:34.6

Yeah, I am old enough to remember when a team on the opposite side of the country, the one in San Francisco

1:39.4

told us their star running back would be fine for week one. And that was true right up until

1:43.9

Christian McCaffrey wasn't. So yes, I have doubts. We should all be skeptical. We should

1:48.3

watch things closely. As Cecil Ami, our colleague noted in this morning's email update on

1:52.8

this story, a chat is a speedback and the calf injuries are tricky, especially for speed

players. So I'm going to watch the dolphinsphins. They'll continue to express confidence.

2:02.3

I believe that, but we'll watch the practice reports. And that'll be that'll be the true tell.
