Welcome in everybody to fantasy pros. This is the fantasy football microcast. It is me Joey P Joe

0:05.9

P's appear with me today is Derek Brown and news never stops and neither does fantasy pros because

0:11.6

we have a lot of injury news that just broke over the last 24 hours. We've got to get to because

0:16.3

it affects your waiver wire to fix your fantasy season that affects a whole lot of players. So we're

0:20.9

going to break it down for you real quick. The biggest news Justin Jefferson going to the IR with

0:26.0

that hamstring injury and Derek Brown. There's no winners here in the sense because if you

0:30.1

drafted Justin Jefferson one overall like a lot of people did certainly this is kind of a death

0:35.6

now for your season in some ways because there's no replacing Justin Jefferson that being said

0:40.9

we are in a situation with the Minnesota Vikings where there could be an eventual sell off

0:45.5

of some pieces here. My instincts tell me that the initial winner isn't Jordan Addison the initial

1:24.0

Now they have no choice. Now they have to play Jordan Addison in a full-time role. He's gonna run

1:29.5

routes on 80 90% of dropbacks. We had not seen that. I moved up Jordan Addison in my rest of season

1:34.4

rankings to White receiver 24. And I think it's right man. I think it's he should be wedged right

1:41.2

in between Nico Collins and Michael Pittman. I think he's looking at a 20 to 22 at least percent

1:46.2

target share on a weekly basis as a full-time guy. I'm with you for me if you could take Addison or
