Welcome to a good football show. It's half time of Monday night football. We're doing the waiver wire show. My name is Pat Crane, and I'm joined by John Dagle. Then be supports edge. Dagle, I'll be gone.

0:26.0

Going well, bear waiver wires in week 11. It actually feels good to say week 11. That feels like we're further along than week 10. I don't know why, but it feels significantly further along. Nonetheless, we are back to we are back to two teams on by in the Broncos and the Rams that everyone if you're listening live is probably watching right now on Monday night football. So we'll go around that. We have some important injuries to note for a short turnaround between the Patriots and Falcons on Thursday night.

0:55.0

But overall, this really seems like the last week where if there are a couple guys out there, we're going to mention you should probably just blow the load for them because it seems like they're the last of the crew that could get double digit touches and like be workhorses down the stretch potentially.

1:12.0

Yeah, I mean, you can't take this fab with you and you can't in some leagues at locks during waiver wire or dirt, sorry, locks during the playoffs. So it's helpful to have a few bucks left as you get into these final weeks. If you have the hammer, if you've got 150 and everyone else has below 100, that can be very helpful. But still, if you have one of these guys that we're mentioning available on your waiver wire, it is one of the last chances to get someone who actually matters to your point.

1:39.0

Let's start with Ramondri Stevenson and the Patriots backfield. I mean, Stevenson had just a huge week this, this, this past week, showing some versatility, showing well as a receiver, getting goal line work. He had a chance to score another touchdown was stopped on a goal line carry and then had a drop on a short reception by the goal line.

1:57.0

So it could have been even bigger day. Damon Harris will be back though. So what are your thoughts on how to handle Ramondri Stevenson and the rest of the backfield?

2:05.0

And Damon Harris does not come back. You may be scraping and higher stakes leagues for Brandon Bolden, if you hadn't already picked them up. Instead, he's probably also plucked off the waiver wires at this point. But in Ken team 12 Team Yahoo leagues, only 32% roster for Ramondri Stevenson, who we saw

2:22.0

while Matt Jones is under center. He was replaced. Jones was by Brian Hoyer to end the game, but while Matt Jones is under center, Stevenson recorded 24 touches to Brandon Bolden six and JJ Taylor's three also 100% all four New England RV carries inside the 10 for Stevenson and a season high 55% of offensive snaps.

2:41.0

I would be fighting personally for Stevenson if he's on waiver wires as if Damon Harris is going to get ruled out. It is a short turnaround. It was just an estimate for Monday's practice report, but they still listed him as DNP. I would assume we're not going to get him for this game.

2:56.0

And if that's the case, then you automatically have a RB1 and Stevenson ready to go for this game against a Falcons defense allowing the fifth most fancy points for a game to opposing running backs, also nearly seven receptions for game to opposing backfield as well.

3:10.0

So just a superb spot. But even if Harris were available, this Stevenson and other guy will talk about in a bit are practically the last two remaining that again that can carve out a stand-alone role for themselves.

3:25.0

Even if they end up being in a committee down the stretch. So I'm pretty much if I have some leftover, I'm pretty much going all out for Stevenson.

3:32.0

I'm with you. Yeah. And I think, you know, one way to think through Stevenson is that he's probably going to have a role the rest of the way in some capacity, whether that's, you know, him mixing in as an early down runner with Harris.

3:46.0

Or as, you know, a guy who could reclaim some of that James White role from Brandon Bolden because what he showed this past week.

3:54.0

I think was pretty special is something that they haven't been able to get out of the backfield really all year outside of some really nice Damien Harris early down run.

4:03.0

So and by that, when I'm talking as explosiveness, you know, they don't really have that much explosiveness throughout the entire roster.

4:09.0

So I think that, you know, you're going to have something in Stevenson, the rest of the way.

4:16.0

And then you also have the contingent value to where any games that Harris misses, whether it's week 11, maybe, you know, additional games down the stretch for nose.

4:24.0

You know, you do have an RB1 in Stevenson. So I agree. Before we move on, one guy that comes to mind, you know, in some shallower leagues, someone who like may have been dropped and you mentioned just kind of blowing the budget.

4:36.0

I think I'd literally leave myself maybe two or three dollars left if AJ Dylan was was dropped in any lakes.

4:44.0

I should mention, you know, that is someone that you would maybe even truly empty the clip for if he's out there anywhere.

4:54.0

He is, especially because we heard one to two weeks, but who knows that that's the case.
