| 0:21.0 | What's up, everybody? Welcome to the show. Let's talk waiver wire on fantasy football today, |
| 0:25.4 | presented by FedMGM, the sports book born in Vegas. It's Tuesday, October 7th, and Omarian |
| 0:31.0 | Hampton is on IR. We need running back replacements once again. We've got a lot of tight ends |
| 0:36.8 | with really good matchups coming up, |
| 0:38.7 | including both Brown's tight ends. How about the Patriots DST? They've been good in four or five |
