Oh, we got a lot of news for you and an awesome player prop for Thursday night right now on Fantasy Football Today in five.

0:13.5

We record on Wednesday night, this show, and you can see it then. Or thank you for listening in our podcast feed. All right, I got a lot of news for you, Dave. Here we go. Taysam Hill. Taysmills is going to start. Start or sit. I'd sit him. I think this is an exploratory week for fantasy managers with Tassam Hill.

0:38.7

You can't quite expect him to do what he did. I'd sit him. I think this is an exploratory week for fantasy managers with Taysam Hill.

0:43.8

You can't quite expect him to do what he did in 2020. I think there was hesitation for the Saints to use him. We know Michael Thomas isn't going to be there. And the matchup isn't that easy

0:48.9

for him. So I'm hesitant. I'm going in a different direction than Taysam Hill.

0:53.2

Alvin Camara, questionable. And both Saints offensive tackles are questionable. So if he does play, Camara, is he a must start? I still think he is. I still think he's at worst, a top 12 type of fantasy running back. There's just way too much potential to put him on the bench. Amari Cooper is expected to play?

1:11.9

Is he a must start?

1:12.8

I'm a little nervous about this one.

1:14.2

I don't know what to expect after the long layoff and still wasn't feeling great a

1:17.7

couple of days ago.

1:18.7

And I agree with you.

1:19.7

I think that is a legit concern.

1:21.2

And there is a growing bubble of wide receivers that fantasy managers will look at and

1:27.4

they'll say, all right,

1:28.8

hopefully they can get me seven or eight non-PPR points, 12 or 13 ppr points. Cooper is squarely

1:36.0

in that bubble this week against New Orleans. The one thing that does make sense to me is that

1:40.9

I think the Cowboys are going to have an easier time passing than rushing.

1:46.1

And so Dax's going to throw a lot.

1:50.9

But I almost wonder if Cooper, A, coming back from the COVID, just won't be at 100%. And B, does he draw Marshawn Latimore in coverage a decent amount of the time?

1:56.5

Certainly whenever he lines up on the outside.

1:58.8

And I think he's going to do that a lot.
