Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score.

It is great to be back. We've been gone for a couple of weeks here, and that's because, I mean, full disclosure, I was off for part of February. That's basically the only time that I can unplug, at least guilt-free anyway. So since there's normally not much going on in February, that is a nice time to do it. and we didn't have the combine this year. So that allowed me to take even a little bit more time off, especially near the end of the month there. So I didn't miss too much, it seems like. There was that Carson-Wenz trade, which really that one seems like it's great news for everybody involved. It gives Wence a chance to recapture some of that early career success that he had when Frank Reich was his O.C. Now Frank Reich, his head coach in Indy, gets to play behind a strong offensive line again and one that at least hopefully won't get hurt nonstop like Philly's offensive line the last couple of years here. And there's some pretty intriguing weapons in Indy right it's not just

1:10.8

Jonathan Taylor in the backfield you got Michael Pittman you got Paris Campbell young

1:15.4

talented wide outs who haven't really shown us their ceilings yet I expect good

1:20.2

things for them Campbell's just been crushed by injuries in his first two years you got

1:24.6

Pittman could be that big bodied Alshan Jeffrey type receiver that Wentz seemed to like in Philly. And I would just, the thing is, I would keep my expectations in check for that Colts passing game. And it's not because I don't think they're going to be good. I think that's going to be a good team, a good offense, but I do think they're still going to try to lean on the run. I don't think they're going to want to put their quarterback in bad situations. You saw that's what they did with Philip Rivers this year, right? They didn't want to put him in bad spot. So I like the talent. Fantasy wise though, you got Taylor that's an elite option, absolutely. And then Pittman Campbell they might they're gonna be good

2:01.4

they just might not be consistent starters for your fantasy squad right they'll

2:05.3

be good games but it's kind of like we saw in Indy this year they're gonna

2:09.0

spread the ball around we might not see any one receiver have that dominant

2:14.2

target total weekend and week out still it's a very smart trade for the Colts.

2:20.1

Match Wentz back up with Reich.

2:21.9

We'll see if that can kickstart Wentz's career.

2:23.9

And then meanwhile, maybe the more exciting aspect of all this for fantasy anyway, Jalen

2:29.1

Hertz being unleashed in Philly's offense.

2:32.3

He's another guy that we look for these guys every single year, another guy that has

2:36.7

that top five potential.

2:38.2

Thanks to that rushing ability, you pretty much have to have the rushing ability in order

2:41.8

to crack that top five or top seven maybe quarterbacks fantasy wise.

2:47.4

Last year, average 68 rushing yards per game over that final month when he got into the starting

2:52.4

spot, had three rushing touchdowns during that time. He's got a long way to go as a passer,

2:58.0

I know, and he's going to have to deal with the same problems that plagued Wentz. They're still

3:02.1

there, right? The offensive line is older. They tend to get injured quite a bit. The receivers are
