A lot to get to right now on fantasy football today in five.

0:07.0

Get in your line upset. It is week nine. Let's talk about Monday night first.

0:11.0

Mark Andrews, doubtful, Gus Edwards, doubtful. Where are you ranking Isaiah likely?

0:15.0

He will be a top five tight end likely. No, inside my top five definitely really amongst the guys who are playing on Sunday

0:27.0

because Dallas got it or only did. I would say Travis Kelsey is the only guy. I'm 100% certain they want to start over Isaiah likely.

0:34.0

Okay, so Gerald Everett and Evan Ingram. He is right in that group. I have him and Everett and even like Foster Maraud, Tyler Higby, all those guys are right in that 10 to 11 point range.

0:46.0

I think likely has 20 point upside. I mean, who's going to be the number one option in the passing game if it's not him?

0:51.0

How about Kenyan Drake in that same game with Gus Edwards, Gus Edwards, doubtful. And people don't forget about Justice Hill. You might be able to get something out of him. But what do you think about Drake?

0:58.0

Not as optimistic as I am about Isaiah likely. Low in number two running back. I would rather start him than guys like Michael Carter, David Montgomery, Brian Robinson, Clyde Edwards, a layer, Devon Singletary, that group of low in number two running back.

1:13.0

But he's still behind Jamal Williams. He's still behind Antonio Gibson. Raheem Mostert.

1:19.0

What about DeAndre Swift, who's going to be limited today?

1:24.0

It also a low in number two running back. I have Swift and Drake projected for almost the exact same thing. Drake obviously has a much higher floor.

1:34.0

I think Swift has a higher ceiling though. And so I might just make the decision based on that, but right in the exact same range of strength.

1:40.0

All right, Cordaerl Patterson is coming back to face one of the worst run defenses in football. We don't know what the workload will be today. He'd Cordaerl Patterson, get ahead of the Drake Swift group or is he behind?

1:52.0

He is one step behind those guys. I would imagine I will be the low guy on Cordaerl Patterson. There was something weird. They threw the ball to him five times in the season opener.

2:01.0

He did not seem more than one target per game after that. So I do think while he seems like a running back, who should be better and PPR and none because I had little they throw the ball. I think he's actually probably better and not.

2:11.0

They just don't throw the running. I think I'll cheer had three catches last week, but he just he so rarely did have catches.

2:17.0

Okay, James Robinson is questionable. That kind of popped up that sort of add in nowhere. If he were to miss the game, how much would you upgrade Michael Carter against the bills?

2:28.0

And Carter is like every running back you are asking me about is within like five spots in the rankings. And Carter is right in that same group with James Robinson. If there was, but you couldn't get too excited without James Robinson.

2:40.0

It's not like 20 touches against this Bill's defense guarantees you a good fantasy day. I would move Michael Carter ahead of Canyon Drake if James Robinson was out. He is behind Canyon Drake with James Robinson.

2:51.0

I'm not looking forward to answering these running back questions later today on YouTube. It's going to be a guessing game for a lot of it. But I mean, at least you have a guy like most or Jamal Williams. Guys where we feel more certain about the workload and we don't have bad matchups or anything. I can feel more comfortable with them.

3:06.0

But there are a lot like single Terry is interesting. I know he wasn't originally part of this segment, but how do you feel about single Terry because he's a clear starter.
