Good morning, friends and enemies.

Today's video will be our running back rankings video. We're coming out a little bit early. At least I'm filming it a little bit early. I'm not sure when it's going live. We've got all the Thanksgiving Day games. I, despite popular belief, have a family, and I would like to spend the weekend with them. So we're going to go a little bit ahead of schedule for you guys so that you can set your lineups and you can set your dinner plates.

All right.

So we're going to go a little bit ahead of schedule for you guys so that you can set your lineups and you can set your dinner plates. All right. So we're going to be doing game by game, every fantasy relevant running back, as we always do, ranking them as a start, a sit, or a flex. We're going to do the same thing with the wide receiver version, either first thing tomorrow morning or later today again not sure the schedule but i promise

both of these will be out prior to thanksgiving day we've got an immaculate turkey day slate so

let's look at thursday first starting off with green bay at the detroit lions this is the 1 p.m

eastern slate this is the first game on thanks. So just quick reminder of the games.

We got Green Bay at Detroit, Kansas City at Dallas, Cincinnati at Baltimore. Honestly,

elite slate. The best I've ever seen on Thanksgiving. Jamir Gibbs, of course, is going

straight into the must start category. This one's actually pretty cut and dry. Gibbs must start.

David Montgomery is going to go into the shaky flex category. Clearly, he is not being used

the same under Dan Campbell's play calling ability. They say they want to get more involved. No one believed

that. Not even Dan Campbell believed it. He's really just not getting the touches. This is a tough

matchup versus Green Bay. So I would look elsewhere if I have other options for David Montgomery.

And then we have what is expected to be the return of Josh Jacobs. He missed week 12. Emmanuel Wilson stepped up in a huge way, obviously. But we do expect Josh Jacobs back. Again, I'm filming this Tuesday morning. It's 10 a.m. We don't have a lot of clear practice reports. I will try to give you my best estimate of what's going to go on with these players. but yeah, I mean, all signs do point towards Josh Jacobs returning for this game.

Tough matchup at the end of the day, like you're just not sitting Josh Jacobs. I do think there's a chance that they use them a little bit less given maybe they have more trust with Emmanuel Wilson based on what we saw snap count wise when Josh Jacobs was dealing with the calf injury. And because of Emmanuel Wilson's performance last week, I think, I think he'll get enough work, maybe double digit touches

overall between carries and receptions that you could throw them into the shaky flex category.

I would prefer, obviously, not to have him in my lineup on Thanksgiving Day when we have all

16 teams playing this week. There are no teams on by,

so you could obviously do a lot better than Emmanuel Wilson. So move on to the 4 o'clock game.

We've got Casey. We've got Dallas. Dallas is three and a half point underdogs,

52 and a half point total here. So on the Dallas side of things, we've got Javante. Again,
