| 0:00.0 | Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone. |
| 0:18.2 | Appreciate your riding along with us today. |
| 0:19.9 | We're going to be spending the entire episode going through mailbag questions this week. And last week, I did sneak in some start sit questions at the end of the show. I sort of did it like rapid fire style. I just want everybody know I'm not going to be doing that every week, mainly because my ranking should be able to answer most of those start sit decisions for you or if you're trying to figure |
| 0:37.7 | out who to pick up and who to drop you have the waiver wire column on mondays you got my trade |
| 0:42.3 | value charts on wednesdays and that's going to tell you exactly how i'm valuing every single |
| 0:46.9 | player and i put a lot of time into those and the goal is that it'll help you with those choices |
| 0:51.8 | plus we got the sunday twitter takeover on the score's main. I'm going to continue to do that, and I will be answering those kind of questions over there on Sunday mornings. But for the mailbag shows, I want to at least try to hit on the bigger picture stuff and the things that kind of are going to impact a lot of people, not just a small handful of fantasy managers. So with that out of the way, let's get to your questions here. |
| 1:13.9 | At Sammy underscore T, week one waivers were crazy. |
| 1:17.9 | Puka Nakua went for 45% of FOB and Josh Kelly 25%. |
| 1:22.4 | No in my league is aggressive on waivers. |
| 1:25.0 | Going forward, how do you suggest referencing your suggested fob but |
| 1:28.4 | acknowledging the aggressiveness in my league thanks so this is a great question and i always say that |
| 1:34.7 | you know your league's best you know what the other managers are like if you think somebody's going |
| 1:39.7 | to be aggressive if you really want that player and you know that aggressive managers out there |
| 1:44.0 | then obviously you have to go above the amount that I'm going to recommend. |
| 1:47.7 | So you're thinking the right way with it already. |
| 1:50.2 | I will also say that I tend to be aggressive with waiver ads. |
| 1:53.8 | And if anything, I'm normally the one that's overpaying for guys. |
| 1:57.0 | But I didn't feel that strong this week about the waiver wire run, at least as some other people did. And I mentioned that on yesterday's show. I might turn out to be wrong about this. And maybe Nakua and Kairn Williams and these guys are going to break out this year. But I see a lot of flaws in their outlooks for the rest of the season. I think that with the Rams offense, it's going to come back down to Earth at some point soon, probably this week when they have to go up against the 49ers defense. And then you're going to get Cooper Cup returning at some point, assuming that he comes back this year, which I think right now we believe that he will be back at some point in the season. And that's going to lower the ceiling for someone like Nakua and maybe |
| 2:34.8 | even make it tough to start him for fantasy. |
| 2:37.4 | Cup is just a volume hog, and I know people can make the argument that they're going to play |
| 2:41.6 | different positions, and maybe Nakua could be more of that Robert Woods in the offense. |
