What is up, it's the rant. My name is Jeff Brack, but it is Tuesday, October 18th, and man,

0:20.2

if you're going through it this week, you're not alone.

0:23.4

A weird week in the NFL. A weird week. And that'll happen from time to time. You know,

0:29.0

there's like three or four of those types of weeks every single year. And I know it was

0:33.4

a weird week because I went seven and seven in my game picks. You know, a lot of things

0:37.9

I didn't think were going to happen happened. We know all the upsets that took place this

0:42.5

weekend. So you know what, it's just part of fantasy football. Let's keep the eyes on

0:46.2

the prize and let's get you set up with waivers for this week. And hey, man, tough week

0:51.5

with buys man, tough week with buys. You get Buffalo, LA, the Rams, Philly and Minnesota,

1:01.0

a lot of viable fantasy options out of that group that will not be on the field for us

1:05.8

1:25.4

this week, that's the guy I'll cut. I hate to have to do that. I don't want to have to

1:30.1

do that. That's why I don't like to play in leagues with four or five bench spots. But

1:34.9

that's who I would cut. You know, it's not a precise formula, but that's what I would

1:38.6

go after. If you have to fill a quarterback spot, a tight end spot, if you're up against

1:42.9

it at running back or something along those lines, that's what I do. So let's get into

1:47.3

it this week. We don't have as sexy of a group of players this week as we did last week.

1:55.2

But there are some interesting names. I'm going to start at the top with Brian Robinson,

1:59.2

Jr. I'll go up to 20% on him. I'm not going to go overboard. It's not a 50 plus percent.
