Let's talk some big questions ahead of week six next on fantasy football today in five.

0:10.8

Welcome to FFT and five. I'm Chris Towers. I'm here with Heath Cummings and a lot going on today,

0:16.5

Heath. I don't know if you've been following the football news, but kind of a busy day around the NFL,

0:24.1

specifically from a fantasy perspective.

0:26.2

James Connor and Justin Jefferson were placed on the IR.

0:29.5

I probably put those guys in reverse order of importance accidentally.

0:33.3

And Devon A. Chan, I'm going to guess he's going to be following them. It feels very rare that

0:40.3

we get the, the team is considering putting this player on IR reports and then they don't go on

0:46.1

IR. So he hasn't been placed on IR, but he's got that knee injury. Sounds like he will. And the

0:50.4

dolphins have some flexibility here with Jeff Wilson, Jr. coming off of IR this week.

0:54.8

I would expect he's going to play. And it's going to be a 1A, 1B situation with him and Rahim Moster. And he, this is not one of our big questions, but I'll just ask you here. How would you rank the dolphins running backs if Jeff Wilson is active this week? If Jeff Wilson's active, then I'd have Rahim Mostard is the top 12 running back and Jeff Wilson is the top 24 running back.

1:13.8

I think that active this week. If Jeff Wilson's active, then I'd have Rahim Mostard at the top 12 running back,

1:11.7

and Jeff Wilson is the top 24 running back. I think that especially in this matchup against

1:17.0

a Carolina team that's one of the worst in the NFL and maybe the worst in the NFL and terrible

1:22.0

against the run to boot. I think both those guys would be easy starts. If Wilson's not active,

1:27.9

Raymooster's my number two running back.

1:29.8

The dolphins have 15 touchdowns from their running backs this season,

1:35.0

which I think is more than they had all of last season.

1:38.2

Almost certainly.

1:39.2

I think they only had like 12 or 13 last season.

1:41.6

So it's been a real change.

1:44.0

And obviously, Divine H.M.'s individual brilliance plays a big part in that because he's ripped off like three long touchdowns already. But yeah, it seems like a good situation. Another good situation, Austin Eckler is going to be back this week. He said he's 99.9% sure he's going to be back. They play on Monday. He practiced without limitations. On Tuesday,
