Welcome in, everybody, to Fantasy Pros.

This is the Fantasy Football podcast.

It's me, Joey P.

Joe Pee's a Pia, and it's time to look ahead to the waiver wire short form style

with my good friend Jake Sealy from the Athletic.

And, of course, it was a wild week for injury news that we're just coming off of for all the running backs.

So many running backs already picked up off the waiver wire.

But if you're looking in some leagues, this guy still might be out there.

It's Michael Carter.

He is 39% rostered in Yahoo.

He is over 50% rostered already on Sleeper because they have a little bit more activity in those leagues and a little bit deeper leagues.

So again, we understand Michael Carter is a guy that, you know, might not be available in your league, but I think we got to talk about him as the number one guy coming off this week here.

18 carries, 51 yards, one touchdown.

He also had five targets, caught all five for 22. So obviously,

no Benson, no Connor. Demarcato doesn't quite recognize where the goal line is, but Michael

Carter does. And let's talk about him to start the show today, Jake. Yeah. So I think that's the

important part is it's not just the waivers, because it's most leagues and sleeper, as you said, probably already have them rostered, but in 10 team leagues or but the bigger question also being like, what are we looking at going forward here?

And the one thing that the Cardinals told us clearly was, hey, yeah, the guy off the practice squad is taking the lead job. Like we heard all week, it might be a one two punch punch, it might be 50-50 with Day Mercado on the passing downs. Day Mercado not only kept his role, it was that minimized role. It was occasional third downs. It was some two-minute drills. And then, of course, as you mentioned, he just made the problem even worse in the fact of throwing the ball down at the goal line, which we're still doing every single year for the entire history of the NFL and these still idiots keep doing it. It's not even a celebration. It's not even, I don't get it. But anyway, they brought in Bam Knight before they brought in Day Mercado, which tells you all you need to know. And that's why we're talking about Michael Carter, looking at Michael Carter, yeah, we could see DeMercato go the other way. They do face Green Bay in two weeks. And maybe that's a game where you do see more of DeMercato in the mix if he hasn't been benched because of that stupid idiotic fumble. But at the same time, even that case, 6040 still to Michael Carter and that's the point here. If you didn't get them or if you did get them,

like sell 100. time, even that case, 60-40 still to Michael Carter, and that's the point here. If you didn't get

them or if you did get him, like sell high, you're probably looking at you would have to think

top 20 because he's clearly the lead. It's still going to be Michael Carter. It's still not
