| 0:00.0 | An early look at the waiver wire. |
| 0:06.1 | Finally, we get to focus on some running backs. |
| 0:08.8 | Welcome to Fantasy Football Today Express. |
| 0:10.9 | Let's get it started. |
| 0:12.0 | Kamani Vidal, 56% rostered. |
| 0:14.5 | Here we go. |
| 0:15.8 | Hopefully this isn't a fake out like Michael Carter. |
| 0:18.3 | I don't think it is. |
| 0:19.7 | 18 carries, 124 yards, three catches, 14 yards, and a touchdown at Miami. He's got to be, if not the headliner, or at least one of the headliners this week. I mean, he is the headliner, Adam, obviously, based on what he did and the fact that we got the report that Omarine Hampton may not be back after his four weeks on injured reserve. |
| 0:37.7 | So you could be looking at, you know, several, maybe six, seven, eight weeks of a |
| 0:43.1 | Vidal's lead running back for the for the Chargers. |
| 0:45.4 | So it clearly was a great matchup against Miami. |
| 0:48.6 | We'll see how he does in week seven against the Colts. |
| 0:50.9 | But just knowing that there's a lot of biweek still coming up, a lot of injuries that we're dealing with, I feel, I feel, you know, thankful for the people that got ahead |
| 0:59.2 | of this last week, you know, and picked him up when he was not going to be as expensive. |
| 1:03.0 | Now you probably have to spend at least 20% of your fab to go get him, you know, just waste |
| 1:07.6 | on everybody now knowing that he's the guy. |
| 1:10.0 | And I feel terrible for the people that picked up us on Haskins. I'm glad that we were, you know, touting Vidal as the one to go get first, not that we had any indication that it was going to be like this. But, you know, 21 total touches, I believe it was for Vidal and seven for Haskins. Clearly, this is the split. I would assume the charters want to see moving forward with by Dow performing like this. |
| 1:44.5 | All right. So we'll come back to running back. Why don't we stay on running backs? We'll start with that. We'll go to quarterbacks after that. Any other running backs to pick up? I mean, the guy right after him, not to the same level, but is obviously, you know, Zonovan Bam Knight based on what he was able to accomplish as well. So we got the report before the slate started Sunday that the Cardinals |
| 1:51.0 | were going to start Knight. You know, I just kind of took it as he was going to have a bigger role. |
| 1:55.0 | And that's exactly what happened. He played 37% of the snaps. Michael Carter played 32% of the |
| 1:59.8 | snaps. Knight had more total touches. Carter played on a lot more third down opportunities. So it feels as if, especially now with Amari Di Mercado dealing with the ankle injury, we see the top two running backs are for the Cardinals. So we don't know, at least as them now, how long Trey Benson will be out. He will miss three more games, which takes them through week 11 because they have their buy in week eight. So you're not going to have Benson back until week 12 at the |
