| 0:00.0 | Welcome to fantasy football today in five. |
| 0:05.7 | We'll give you some trade candidates and go through the latest news right now. |
| 0:09.7 | Adam Azer, Dave Richard. |
| 0:11.2 | Here we go. |
| 0:11.6 | We've got five minutes of fantasy advice coming your way. |
| 0:14.2 | Tight ends in the Thursday night game. |
| 0:16.1 | Dallas Goddard has COVID. |
| 0:17.8 | He's on the reserve COVID list. |
| 0:20.2 | So he seems unlikely to play as we sit here on Tuesday. And Grankowski is out. So Zachert, you know, he might be available in some leagues, about 66% roster. Must add guy is a must start. I think he is. Think about it. We don't have Gronk this week. We don't have Kyle Pitts this week. We don't have George Kittle this week. Not that we would have him anyway, but the 49ers are on by. We're running short on tight-end supply. And here's somebody who's been getting a decent dose of targets over the last three weeks. And if there's no Goddard, then I think the door is open for him to have as many as eight targets against this zone defense that Tampa |
| 0:55.1 | Bay has. Definitely look for a bounce back game from Zach Ertz this week. Would you start Zach |
| 0:59.9 | Ertz? Thursday against Tampa Bay or T.J. Hawkinson against the Bengals. Hockinson would still be my |
| 1:07.5 | preferred pick. I think he's got more upside overall. |
| 1:17.1 | Okay, Darrell Williams got, I guess, for him, for his fantasy managers, I hate to say it this way. Good news, but Clyde Edwards-Ealer's on IR. Let's say is a more extended stay. |
| 1:22.2 | What I want you to say, what I want you to talk about is Marlon Mack, the rumors that maybe |
| 1:26.5 | they're interested in Marlon Mack. And if the chiefs traded for Marlon Mac, what do you think the backfield |
| 1:32.0 | would look like? Oh, I think if they traded for Marlon Mac, we would see Mack work with |
| 1:39.6 | McKinnon and Williams on rushing downs. And it would be a total mess for fantasy and no one would want to touch it. And then I think Williams would keep his role in passing downs and potentially short yardage would still go to Williams, but maybe a little bit would go to Mac too. I don't want him to go there. I don't think he can emerge as a must-start type of fantasy running back if he goes to Kansas City. |
| 2:02.0 | I don't think it's a great fit for him. And by the way, Clyde Edwards E. Lear would come back. |
| 2:05.5 | Then what do you do? They'd make it even more of a huge mess. So hopefully that doesn't happen. |
| 2:10.4 | Hopefully the chief stand pat with what they have of running back and Daryl Williams gets a shot |
| 2:15.4 | at maybe 15 touches per game working in a lot of |
| 2:18.9 | high leverage situations for that Kansas City offense. That's a good thing. |
