Hey there everybody welcome back to another episode of Fantasy Gross football podcast on your host Dan Harris with me are my guys Mike

0:25.0

Tagliere and Caliates you can find us on Twitter at Dan Harris 80 at Mike Tagliere NFL and at Kyle Y NFL gentlemen happy Monday. How you doing?

0:33.4

What up?

0:34.4

I don't do it a lot better than Texas. We were talking about this earlier. He's got snow where he is.

0:40.0

You know I saw Flurries they it's not sticking yet. So it's okay, but you know what I'm going to embrace the snow this year because it's gonna be my last year in Illinois.

0:48.8

So when I go out to Tennessee, I'm gonna get snow maybe once or twice a year they're gonna shut down everything in town and I'm gonna enjoy the hell out of that because white snow looks fantastic. It's when you drive on it. It turns to that brownie mush. It's just not fun at that. Are you officially moving to Tennessee by the way.

1:03.8

Yeah, well, I mean we're basically I can't move in the middle of the NFL season for obvious reasons. But yeah, it's like that was a dig at me.

1:09.8

As soon as the season is over, I will be we're gonna start looking out there. So yeah.

1:14.8

Okay, all right. Well, all right. A reason to go down to Nashville at least.

1:19.8

Yeah, but like a half hour outside of Nashville is where we're looking fantastic. Okay. Well, it is just raining here still in New England. So I'm lucky enough to have avoided the snow.

1:29.8

But I know it's coming soon. Winter is coming as we all know. I'm not looking forward to that. But anyway, how do you guys feel about the way we're this week?

1:37.8

Cause feels pretty weak to me. I don't know about you guys. This is not a week where I'm really excited about all the pickups. What about you tags?

1:45.8

Dude, I'm with you. I've been that way though through a lot of the year and it just feels like a lot of the guys that you even consider you're just on rosters already.

1:53.8

And there's a lot of borderline guys that might be 50% owned where we get tweets from people saying, well, would you pick up this guy if he was available?

1:59.8

And I'm like, well, we didn't think he was available. So it's like it's a really tricky year. There are a few names on the way

2:05.8

for wire this week that actually can make a difference. And Yates, I know Yates is a little bit higher on this, this way for wire than we are.

2:13.8

Is that true? Yates, this is a good one for you. I don't think there's any like top tier guys that we're saying like spend, you know, significant fat to go get.

2:20.8

But I feel like it's a deep waiver wire, compared to what we've had recently. I feel like it's a deeper one.

2:24.8

Well, there certainly are some might receivers. But again, like last week with Boston Scott, for example, we knew that that guy was somebody you could pick up and could potentially not win you a week.

2:34.8

And it really be somebody who you knew you can rely on. I'm not sure I feel that way this week, but we'll get into it now.

2:40.8

The only big item of news there are a bunch of injuries that we are waiting to hear about in terms of the severity.

2:47.8

We don't know yet, but we will touch on the vast majority of them in the waiver wire show because they're going to impact.
