| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. |
| 0:17.6 | I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score. |
| 0:41.6 | Thank you for hanging out with us today. Lots of content already up on the score for week three. My waiver wire column, which hopefully are used to make some pickups already. My updated trade value charts, plenty of changes in that one over the first couple weeks. And then my first version of the week three rankings went out Tuesday night. And I'll have an updated version of that coming out on Thursday morning I don't want to bury the lead here though because we got week three to get you ready for and that's why we're doing the week three preview show |
| 0:46.2 | today we got a great guest coming on to somebody who always joins us around this time a year |
| 0:50.8 | ben gretch of stealing signals he's going to give us some insight on what he's |
| 0:55.4 | been noticing so far through the first two weeks. But before we get him in here, it's that time again. |
| 1:00.5 | Let's take a look at my top trade targets this week as we kick things up a notch with our friends |
| 1:04.8 | at Frank's Red Hot. Let's Frank it up. And the first name on my list heading into week three, |
| 1:10.5 | George Pickens on the Steelers. |
| 1:12.6 | He came out of the gate strong, six catches for 85 yards in the opener. |
| 1:16.9 | Then he had a quiet day against Pat Sartan and the Broncos in week two, |
| 1:20.1 | finished with just two for 29. |
| 1:22.1 | But that could have been much bigger. |
| 1:23.9 | Pickens had a 51-yard catch and a six-yard touchdown nullified by penalties. He also |
| 1:28.9 | drew a 37-yard defensive pass interference in that game. That's why we look further than the |
| 1:33.4 | box score. That's why you should be trying to get Pickens on your roster immediately. The next |
| 1:38.2 | name on my list, Zach Moss on the Bengals, another guy who started slow in 2024, hasn't top 50 rushing yards in a game yet. |
| 1:46.2 | He was really lucky to save his week one performance with a touchdown. Let's face it. |
| 1:50.5 | But if we dig a little deeper, the good news here is that Moss is the unquestioned lead back in |
| 1:55.0 | Cincinnati. His playing time jumped from 65% of the snaps in the opener to 80% of the snaps |
| 2:00.5 | in week two. |
| 2:01.6 | Now he gets some very favorable matchups coming up, the commanders and the Panthers over the |
