NFL Week 4 Highlights & Player Performances

00:00:01
thedfsdeli
Week four is in the books. And in my opinion, the NFL is still completely drunk because not only are the Chiefs undefeated, so are the Minnesota Vikings. Sam Donald's your comeback player of the year and MVP. Joe Flacco's back to throwing touchdowns. We're still living in bizarro world. But as we move on to week five, we here at the deli are here to break it down.
00:00:30
thedfsdeli
all for you on this early look show, the DFS deli main slate. Come on in. Here we go.

Personal Updates & NFL Team Analogies

00:02:27
Baker
I'm feeling fantastic, you know staying busy, staying ready, been on the golf streets, you know packing up a house, getting ready to move, you know found out some news about my move to Columbus, which pissed me off earlier this week. you know i'm i'm ah I'm kind of sharing the same sentiment as you ah that we talked about off air. But instead of it being about females, I'm pissed at the Arizona Cardinals because they be tricking me to thinking that they actually something when these ain't
00:02:58
thedfsdeli
Yeah, I mean no no no you will not give me all time
00:03:02
Baker
so
00:03:06
thedfsdeli
I refuse to have it because as much as I want to compare the Arizona Cardinals ain't being and most women not being, I mean, like, cause you know, I, I got some special ones in my life and I know Baker, you know, you got, you, you trying to work on a little sum too, you know, cause what I think, like, I think you need to just consider Kyler like that X. You just need to just need to let go, man. It's it's over.
00:03:36
thedfsdeli
We had a good time together.
00:03:36
Baker
I mean, me, me me and Kyler are still trying to work some things out. Like, it's like, come on, baby. We could, we could, we could work through this. We could work through this, baby.
00:03:42
thedfsdeli
No, no, as Baker, as your best friend, as your closest friend, you know how much I love you. And I want to let you know that this relationship with Kyler Murray is toxic. It's very toxic. And I don't want you to go back. You've you've lost enough money.
00:04:04
thedfsdeli
on Kyler Murray this year. So it's time to let him go. Move on to a new boo. His name's Jaden Daniels.
00:04:12
Baker
Nope, I mean, Jayden Daniels, you know what I'm saying?
00:04:12
thedfsdeli
and
00:04:14
Baker
Like he's the new thing on the block, you know what I'm saying? but i Like he's that new, new, but I don't like new, new.
00:04:21
thedfsdeli
But he's so hot. And i think and big I think you can pull him.
00:04:27
Baker
I mean, here's the thing, Kyler is old and busted.
00:04:27
thedfsdeli
I think you can pull him.
00:04:33
Baker
Jayden Daniels is the new hotness.
00:04:37
Baker
I don't know why, you know what I'm saying? I keep going back to old and busted.
00:04:42
thedfsdeli
Baker, old and busted would be, you know, Deshaun Watson.
00:04:46
Baker
Nah, he's just busted.
00:04:48
thedfsdeli
But at one time though, he was hot. At one time, there once was a time that he was hot.
00:04:57
thedfsdeli
And, and we just did. You showed us the picture.
00:04:57
Baker
There once was a time I didn't have facial hair too, but we don't talk about that.
00:05:08
thedfsdeli
I digress.

DFS Strategies & FanDuel Frustrations

00:05:10
thedfsdeli
If you don't know what we do here on the DFS daily, we break down position by position. Our favorite plays of the main. Slate. And if you're on FanDuel, you get that stupid night game that keeps costing me money every week.
00:05:24
thedfsdeli
Freaking Derek Henry doing what he had to do, cost me several hundred freaking dollars. But no, FanDuel keeps that stupid game on the freaking main slate. I'm surprised the London game ain't on there this week.
00:05:37
thedfsdeli
You dumb ass freaking website.
00:05:41
Baker
You could just come over to draft game.
00:05:41
thedfsdeli
Hmm.
00:05:43
Baker
You could be a full time draft kingers like my like myself.
00:05:47
thedfsdeli
It's full-time draft king, big you know, king.
00:05:50
Baker
Big Catch Kang homeboy. What do you?
00:05:52
thedfsdeli
I don't think I can do it, man, but, you know, I think my relationship with FanDuel is toxic.
00:05:53
Chilly
Okay.
00:05:58
thedfsdeli
To be honest, yeah, I want to break up.
00:05:59
Baker
Facts.
00:05:59
Chilly
Okay.
00:06:00
Baker
I mean, I think this is week number four in a row of ah going on a fan dual rant.
00:06:05
thedfsdeli
Until we need to put out a petition. ah they I mean, and i you know what? those of you that get to watch on YouTube, do me a favor, do the DFS Delia favor, put down in the comment section below F fan dual for the night game.
00:06:24
thedfsdeli
That's all you need to comment F fan dual for the night game. And that's all I asked for you. We do this show for free. Give out knowledge for free because last week someone plays boy.
00:06:39
thedfsdeli
We got, we hit, I mean,
00:06:41
Baker
So is the comments down below our tip jar?
00:06:44
thedfsdeli
No, no. earth
00:06:50
thedfsdeli
Baker, before we, uh, before we jump into the, our favorite plays starting at the quarterback position, of course,

Quarterback Picks & DFS Strategy Discussion

00:06:58
Baker
Yes. We pulling one out.
00:06:58
thedfsdeli
you know what we have to do first, right?
00:07:01
thedfsdeli
Yeah, it's that time. Everybody join us in raising the glass for our fallen last week. Most notably, Brandon cooks, he's going to be out another week. So pour one out for Brett. Oh, we do. We lose another receiver to Patrick Mahomes for single-handedly ruining Rashi rice this season. So let's pour one out for Rashi and we wish you a speedy recovery. Rip Rashi rice.
00:07:37
thedfsdeli
How you injure your best player on your own F up.
00:07:42
Baker
That was a pick and then takes us and he's out like No, I Don't think tray for anybody I Don't feel like building that all over again.
00:07:44
thedfsdeli
and then takes his knees out. I want your opinion. Do you think the Chiefs trade for a Amari Cooper?
00:07:55
Chilly
i think if they I think if they trade, it's for Tyreek Hill.
00:07:55
thedfsdeli
Really?
00:07:59
thedfsdeli
Oh, just go all in.
00:08:01
Chilly
ye
00:08:06
Baker
I really don't I
00:08:07
Chilly
i think ty I think if they do trade, it would be for Tyreek.
00:08:12
thedfsdeli
Talk about reuniting with your ex, huh?
00:08:15
Baker
I mean, just bringing this conversation full of Jericho.
00:08:18
thedfsdeli
yeah Exactly.
00:08:20
Chilly
I mean Tyreke, Tyreke makes the most sense and especially where the dolphins are at right now. Like you'd kind of be really silly not to take a call or to shop them.
00:08:32
thedfsdeli
It will be a matter of the cap.
00:08:36
Chilly
Listen, they can restructure. You can make it into guaranteed money or bonus money. the Dolphins can pay it, the Chiefs can pay the rest. like There's so many ways around the NFL cap. like Pat Mahomes can just restructure his deal for a year. like You can make it work.
00:08:54
thedfsdeli
That's all true. I just think like the most sense makes what makes the most sense is probably a Mari Cooper because like you only have control of him this year. You know, he's free agent next year. The cap hit is nothing.
00:09:04
thedfsdeli
They can already afford it without restructuring too many people. He already, you can tell he hates Cleveland already. Browns ain't going nowhere. So it was like, I think it's going to be a Mari if they make a trade or Oh,
00:09:18
Baker
Does he hate Cleveland or does he hate his quarterback?
00:09:23
thedfsdeli
Aren't they synonymous with one another? Doesn't Deshaun Watson play in Cleveland?
00:09:27
Baker
Well, he I mean, he loved Joe Flacco when he was here last year,
00:09:29
thedfsdeli
Oh,

NFL Trade Speculations & Team Dynamics

00:09:30
Baker
so.
00:09:30
thedfsdeli
he was loving him some Joe Flacco boy. You know who else was loving some Joe Flacco? All the Colts receivers.
00:09:37
Chilly
all the Colts receivers who are possession guys. but down to The down the field guys had a bad time.
00:09:40
thedfsdeli
Yeah.
00:09:45
thedfsdeli
Amen. We, we saw pity city, put his ah arm, hand up through the grave.
00:09:50
Chilly
yeah a it
00:09:52
thedfsdeli
But unfortunately it looks like ah a unfortunately, it looks like we won't get the Joe Flacco experience this week.
00:09:52
Chilly
know
00:10:01
thedfsdeli
So Anthony Richardson looks like you'll be OK.
00:10:03
Chilly
and
00:10:04
thedfsdeli
Exactly. Boo.
00:10:06
Chilly
o
00:10:06
thedfsdeli
I agree. Aw, man. That would have been the first quarterback I'm talking about here in a second just loading up Joe Flacco.
00:10:06
Baker
Could have been a fun ride.
00:10:13
Baker
Oh, yeah.
00:10:13
thedfsdeli
so
00:10:15
thedfsdeli
But let's get into it. Favorite quarterback plays early look 50,000 foot view of the slate. Chili, I'll start with you. Where are you looking at at quarterback this week?
00:10:26
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, a couple of quarterbacks I'm looking at this week, um, specifically here, kind of looking at Jordan love this week. Uh, you didn't have a really good first half against the Vikings, but seem to click, uh, as that game went on. I don't know how much you want to take into account that it may have been garbage time, but He did almost bring him back. I mean, it's kind of fun to think about that. The Packers, what Jordan love this season or Owen to kind of hilarious to think about. um But he is in a he is a good matchup this week against the Rams defense, who at the end of the day, it's not very good.
00:11:03
Chilly
um yeah I don't think the Packers are going to fully abandon this running game, but it does look like they're going to be predominantly a passing team. um His wide receivers may be a little bit chalky, so maybe ah a little bit of a chalky move here, but it is a good matchup, so I do like Jordan Love.
00:11:23
Chilly
this week I do you like me some Brock Purdy this week as well going up against the Cardinals ah again the Cardinals defense we just these boys do get cooked every week um he's starting to get his team back and even without having the full cast of Avengers around him he's been playing really well um some of his other pieces may be a little bit chalky so it'd make you a little bit different to kind of put Purdy in that lineup as well um you know it's kinda taking a look here uh... at some of the other guys uh... i may go back to caleb williams this week uh... that panthers defense uh... is not very good either uh... caleb seems to be kinda getting more and more into a group here uh... that could be the sneaky shootout game quote-unquote but uh... it's kinda taking a look here i mean there's
00:12:21
Chilly
Obviously, I'll leave some of these other guys to you. I don't want to kind of point out the obvious plays, but um Those are kind of some of the different quarterbacks. I'm looking at this week
00:12:33
thedfsdeli
Baker, I have to, I have to comment on your, uh, you're, you're rocking the twins, Berg tigers shirt today.
00:12:40
Baker
Well, you yelled at me when I wore my my my other shirt last week or the week before.
00:12:45
thedfsdeli
The week before.
00:12:45
Baker
So yeah.
00:12:45
thedfsdeli
Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:47
Baker
So you yelled at me when I wore that.
00:12:47
thedfsdeli
and I think, yeah, I just have to, with a comment on, you know, the twins, Berg representation, you know what I'm saying?
00:12:53
Baker
Oh, I got to represent for my Tigers. just I mean, my 20th year graduation celebration or whatever um was just this past Saturday. Not that I went, but still.
00:13:03
thedfsdeli
Oh. Oh nice. Nice. Very good.
00:13:06
Baker
Yeah, I saw the pictures of a bunch of people who I don't know, don't care to know.
00:13:07
thedfsdeli
Yeah. I just.
00:13:10
Baker
It was cool.
00:13:14
Baker
Oh, that's so fucked up to say.
00:13:15
thedfsdeli
I didn't go to mine either. I didn't go to mine either.
00:13:19
Baker
It's like, yeah, 20 years out of high school, let's have a reunion. I don't care.
00:13:23
thedfsdeli
Right. Right. I saw my pictures too. It looks like they had a good time. Me.
00:13:28
Baker
Yeah, look it looked like, you know, about 15 people had a fantastic time.
00:13:32
thedfsdeli
About 50.
00:13:34
thedfsdeli
I think that's what mine was too. It was a not the best turnout, you know, a graduating class of 150 something when 20 people show up. Yeah.
00:13:43
Baker
Not good.
00:13:44
thedfsdeli
Not good.
00:13:45
Baker
Not good.
00:13:45
thedfsdeli
Not good there guy. So I kind of agree on um I agree on one player and that's Caleb Williams. um I would say yes. Sneaky shootout potential here.
00:13:57
thedfsdeli
And then I think the I think the consensus kind of not argument, but statement around the DFS industry is that Caleb Williams one week is going to break the shit out of a slate. And this could be that week. And I think he makes for an interesting pivot play as well. Because for some reason, people think the Andre Swift is actually a good running back and he's not. So if um he's going to be semi popular, I think the move is definitely going to that passing game. So I do like the Caleb Williams play. um Baker, what you got, man?
00:14:30
Baker
So this is the interesting point and point in time in the season because we have, you know, four games, decent sample size of information. So we kind of recognize what teams are bad in what areas and you can kind of really start to hone in on things.
00:14:44
Baker
My love affair with Kyler Murray will not stop, but I will say this. I will say this for my love affair with Kyler Murray. I will use him as a late swap only. I will not build with Kyler Murray.
00:14:55
Baker
So if I'm dying, I moved him.
00:14:55
thedfsdeli
Okay.
00:14:55
Chilly
i know i think I think this is the week to play him.
00:15:00
Baker
I mean, this is definitely the, I feel like this is the week to play him. I just don't know if I have the heartbreak in me to get my heart broken for a fifth week in a row.
00:15:06
Chilly
I mean, this is he's going to be less than mean, end those ta and the do struggle with Kyler.
00:15:11
Baker
The Cardinals will be less than 10% as a team, the entire team.
00:15:21
Baker
I mean, colors had some good games, especially when he had some, you know, some better pass catchers. I think last year he only had like 15 points in his one game the year before that. I think he only played one game and had around 18 ish points. But before that, he all his games were 20, you know, mid to high twenties for him versus the 49ers. So I definitely don't mind the spot. I just don't know if I have the stones to, you know, build my heart around this man again, just for him to break it.
00:15:50
Baker
I'm a little sensitive sometimes, I'm a little sensitive. And speaking of being sensitive, last week I built a decent amount of my lineups around Trevor Lawrence, and it almost worked out. It was almost there from a fantasy perspective. We're not talking real football right now. We agree that he's terrible in real football, but fantasy, he can be almost relevant sometimes. And this is the shootout of the week to me. I don't see how both teams just don't run this shit up. Both defenses can't stop the Twinsburg Tigers as it were.
00:16:21
Baker
You know, Jacksonville's defense gives it up in the Colts defense is bleeding points to any and everybody. You know, Justin Fields and his Pittsburgh offense hadn't been good at all for the most part this year. And then Justin Fields goes his ahead and be and, you know, he's your number one quarterback tournament winning all over the place. So I definitely don't mind Trevor Lawrence for that reason. And that reason only it's a hundred percent matchup. Caleb Williams. I love the Caleb Williams play. This is weird because we're never all in agreement on anything ever.
00:16:51
thedfsdeli
Yeah, take that shit to heart. Yeah, man.
00:16:51
Baker
Kind of scared.
00:16:53
Baker
That kind of scares me a little bit.
00:16:53
thedfsdeli
And we all say the same guy? Eh, you might want to consider it.
00:16:55
Baker
That kind of scares me a little bit. But yeah, I definitely love the Trevor Lawrence play and the puke play of the week. The puke play at quarterback a week of the week is, you know, we're playing versus the like, there's the defense that is always giving.
00:17:07
Baker
It's the Washington commanders.
00:17:10
Baker
So do we play like last time I brought up to Sean Watson, it worked out a little bit for him, a baby bit.
00:17:17
Chilly
it It did work out against the Giants.
00:17:20
Baker
So like, once again, I don't think he's a good quarterback. I don't do not confuse these words, but Deshaun Watson, I think versus the commanders, you have to take it into play. Like this, this commander's team gives it up in every way possible. Inside, outside, upside, downside, right side, left side.
00:17:35
Chilly
Minus the Kyler Murray on a short week.
00:17:37
Baker
Minus the Kyler Murray because Kyler Murray likes to break my heart because Kyler Murray loves to break my heart.
00:17:43
thedfsdeli
Well, you know what I have to say about that Baker?
00:17:57
thedfsdeli
I am a, I'm not playing in the Sean Watson. It's not going to happen now. I might, I might play some pass catchers, pass catcher, catcher.
00:18:05
Baker
Catch her, catch her.
00:18:08
Baker
Well, Enjoku might be back this week. Enjoku might come back.
00:18:13
thedfsdeli
We'll see, but and we'll we'll get to our receivers when we get there. But yeah, there might be a, there might be a Browns pass catcher that I will consider against.
00:18:22
thedfsdeli
ah
00:18:22
Baker
elija Elijah, Elijah more?
00:18:23
Baker
Is it a line more?
00:18:24
thedfsdeli
it's it's It's not Elijah Moore.
00:18:26
Baker
Okay.
00:18:26
thedfsdeli
It's not Elijah Moore, but we'll get there. um First of all, Geno Smith in the revenge game. Okay. We saw what he did against the lions and I already know there's a running back in that game. It's probably going to be popular but as he should be, but we've got to consider Gino in this spot and we get the p pleasure of having J a 17 on the main slate. So If Josh Allen is playing the game of football, you should always consider Josh Allen, especially after the drubbing that the Ravens put on that boy last week.
00:19:04
Baker
whoa so expensive this game is so expensive
00:19:04
thedfsdeli
I think it's time to bounce back a little bit. Maybe consider this game as a, as a totality could be very stackable.
00:19:15
Chilly
I mean, it's not, ah it's not obviously playing Josh Allen will never be a ah bad move, but I think this Buffalo team is giving me 2023 Dallas cowboy vibes where when they play bad teams, they're going to drop them. And then when they play good teams, they're going to struggle really bad.
00:19:38
thedfsdeli
I don't have that vibe at all. I just think the Ravens are really good. And they show why they're good. So I mean, I'm fine. I'm fine with, like I said, stacking the holy hell out of this game. Um, obviously J 17's, uh, past catches are relatively inexpensive. Um, and he's one of those guys that you don't necessarily have to stack. Maybe you just take, you know, cook and Josh Allen and walk away. Uh, Khalil secures emerging. So maybe even throw him in on the cheap. And then obviously on the other side, Nico Collins is Nico freaking Collins. So, I mean, you always got to take him into into consideration. And I think he's still out of discount.
00:20:14
thedfsdeli
for his price. So, but we'll get through our receivers, but still, um, yeah, those are definitely some of the quarterbacks I'm considering. Again, I like, again, we're all in agreements on Caleb.
00:20:25
thedfsdeli
Um, again, Jayden Daniels, cause he's going against Cleveland.
00:20:29
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, Jay Daniels is... I don't think we need to mention Jay Daniels. Obviously, he's playing at an MVP level.
00:20:34
thedfsdeli
No.
00:20:37
Chilly
He's at home playing a bad defense, so...
00:20:42
thedfsdeli
Yeah, 100% agree. um And again, I do like your take on um Brock pretty as well. I mean, this, this Cardinals team. Wow. And we'll get to running backs here in a second. But I think Brock pretty does make for an interesting pivot play as well because everybody's going to be playing Jordan Mason. So if you just play the pass catchers, I think, I think it's an interesting way to get around the field when it comes to ownership. So those are going to be some of the good ones.
00:21:11
thedfsdeli
And I told y'all last week, man, I know he's not on the main slate this week, but you know, Baker Mayfield, I gave y'all Baker Mayfield last week and no one wanted to listen. So this week we're giving you some bombs. You should, you should pay attention to the things that the DFS deli has to say to you. Um, are we ready to move over to running back?
00:21:34
Baker
I think so.

Running Back Picks & Player Potential

00:21:35
Chilly
Think so.
00:21:35
Baker
I'm ready to move over to my lock position of the week.
00:21:37
thedfsdeli
Oh, Baker, why don't you, why don't you hit him with it? So
00:21:41
Baker
I mean, there's like, my one take is very simple.
00:21:41
thedfsdeli
Well, you got it running back.
00:21:45
Baker
Play Jordan Mason and move the fuck on. Lock button of the week. 100% of my lineups will have Jordan Mason in them.
00:21:55
thedfsdeli
Baker, there's so many good running backs on the slate though. Don't you think there's other places we could go?
00:22:02
Baker
And Jordan Mason's the best of them all.
00:22:08
thedfsdeli
Baker, before, before I let you, you know, finish off the rest of your plays, because I know you are so high on Jordan Mason oh up top. I mean, we have our King, but our King is going to be popular this week.
00:22:20
Baker
He will be popular.
00:22:21
thedfsdeli
So, you know, the rules.
00:22:22
Baker
He's popular. We don't play.
00:22:24
thedfsdeli
correct. So as I was saying, you got Kyron Williams, who is just the modicum of consistency. But when it comes to the running back position, this Rams offense runs through that guy. So we're going to talk about playing some of these green Bay guys. On the other side, you have to consider Kyron. We saw Ken Walker go all nuclear on Monday night in his game, and he gets the blessing of the Giants at home this week. So on the mid tier to upper end, you got to consider a guy like him. And then from my personal standpoint, on the other side of that Rams on the Rams game is probably going to be a guy if you want a pivot play, because we already mentioned that the pass catchers for Green Bay are going to be popular. Jordan Love's going to be semi popular, but I don't think anybody's going to want to play Josh Jacobs in this spot.
00:23:14
thedfsdeli
I think he makes for a very sneaky, interesting kind of move here, if you want to get off the beaten path. And one guy I mentioned before I let you ah have some other takes is show I'm sorry, but your team is ass.
00:23:33
thedfsdeli
And I just literally watched one of the most boring games of all time in the Titans dolphins game on Monday.
00:23:39
Chilly
I want to say for as bad as they are, I think Tyler Huntley did score more fantasy points than Josh Allen.
00:23:47
thedfsdeli
He did, but that's not either here nor there.
00:23:48
Chilly
Yes. I saw I take that.
00:23:50
thedfsdeli
That's not here nor there.
00:23:52
Chilly
I take that as a moral victory.
00:23:54
thedfsdeli
You know, it's going to be a demoralizing victory when demon, when Ramon J. Stevenson runs down that ass. Cause if Tony Pollard can do it, Ramon Dre is going to make for one of the more interesting plays here on the slate.
00:24:00
Chilly
I think. I think I think he's going to wind up being chopped.
00:24:10
Baker
Oh, no. Oh, no.
00:24:11
thedfsdeli
No, no one's going to play Ramon Dre.
00:24:12
Chilly
No, man, i I don't know. Here's the thing. Like, we've had these weeks where it's like we don't think somebody's going to be chalk. And then when the cards turn, they're chalk.
00:24:25
Chilly
I don't know, man. Like, I think Raimondre winds up chalk.
00:24:30
thedfsdeli
Well, whatever the case is, it's still a good play, right?
00:24:30
Chilly
It's not a bad play. It's not a bad play. Right.
00:24:33
thedfsdeli
It's still a good play.
00:24:33
Chilly
Like, it's still a good play for obvious reasons.
00:24:34
thedfsdeli
Yeah.
00:24:36
Chilly
But like, I'd rather play a Chan at no ownership than Raimondre.
00:24:43
thedfsdeli
i I'm not touching a dolphin until they get a quarterback.
00:24:44
Chilly
and but If Raheem is out, if Raheem Mostard is out and you give you give Tyler Huntley another week in this offense, you gotta remember like he was fresh, so he gets a whole another week in this offense to prepare.
00:24:57
Chilly
like Let's not pretend that New England is a good team either. um So I would be willing to take Achan over Raimondre.
00:25:02
thedfsdeli
Oh, they're not.
00:25:03
Baker
no oh no no no no no no no no no no no
00:25:04
thedfsdeli
ah
00:25:12
thedfsdeli
That's fair. ah Baker, you already.
00:25:13
Chilly
But obviously, it's a good play.
00:25:14
thedfsdeli
Go ahead. No, no, go ahead. Go ahead.
00:25:17
Chilly
No, no, I was just saying that Remondray is a really good player. I just don't know if he's chalk. I don't want to play chalk, Remondray.
00:25:26
thedfsdeli
I guess we'll shake out the ah ownership numbers here as the week goes along.
00:25:29
Baker
No, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:30
thedfsdeli
But Baker, you did mention that you liked the numbers at the high end. Who else you got?
00:25:36
Baker
I mean, Kyron, Kyron is the only play on the Rams. Like if you tell me about playing another Ram, my answer is no. Not that, you know, they can't be interesting. And this is then this team struggles in this area. I don't care. The Rams give the ball to Kyron, Kyron, Kyron, Kyron and Kyron. If somebody is scoring else besides Kyron, it's coming from like 50 yards out. Because once they get inside the 10, 20 yard line, it's the Kyron show.
00:26:02
thedfsdeli
to to at well bro Baker you already lost the prop bet last week when you told me that Mike Evans was gonna out score Chris got one and he did so suck it so I guess we'll take our I guess we'll take our to to bet here yeah but I digress go on
00:26:06
Baker
I will wear a 2-2 on this show if he outscores Kyron.
00:26:19
Baker
I hate it. It's a 2-2 and a 2-2 on the line. That's fine. So.
00:26:31
Baker
um I mean, obviously we're waiting on the Jonathan Taylor news to kind of, you know, see what's going on with him as far as his high ankle sprain. Trey Sermon will, will become chalk. Like I don't, I don't see how he does it become chalky. Um, if Jonathan Taylor misses and if john and Jonathan Taylor somehow miraculously plays, I wasted all my fat budget in season one, but that's neither here nor there.
00:26:57
Baker
If I'm not going to Sean Watson, and I know we're going to talk about, we're going to talk about a pass catcher. I still don't mind Jerome Ford because the, like the Browns are the weirdest team in the world to me. And it's and possible for me to figure out Jerome Ford, but from a matchup standpoint, Washington can't stop anything. So I don't mind attacking them through the ground. I don't mind attacking them through the air as well. Jerome Ford's been involved in the past game. So under the circumstances that the Browns happened to be losing, which they should be because we suck.
00:27:27
Baker
he can He has outs to still potentially get you there because he is quote unquote the past catching back in this office right now. So Jerome Ford at a cheaper price and nobody's playing no goddamn Browns, especially Jerome Ford. I definitely don't mind him at all. ah You would have to pay me money for me to play the Andre Swift because yeah, that's shit. That's just not going to happen. I don't see a world in which that happens.
00:27:55
Baker
But my running back pool really as of right now is really short. I mean, Ken Walker, I think it's a great play. The biggest part about playing Ken Walker to me, it's a good play in general, but I think the biggest part is seeing what's going on Malik neighbors. Once we get to white receivers, if his brain is intact and he's able to play Ken Walker, I don't think is as strong of a play. If there's no Malik neighbors, Ken Walker is a smash play a thousand percent.
00:28:21
thedfsdeli
I like those takes chill where you stand at running back.
00:28:25
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, running back is kind of thin. I mean, obviously not a a whole bunch of pay up options. I mean, Baker mentioned it. I think Jordan Mason is pretty much the lock button this week. um You know, I'm i like unrelated to it. I might bet his touchdown prop. But, you know, it's a conversation for a different show. But um Yeah, again, this Cardinals defense is it's not very good. um This game, this game has the potential to have a little bit of a shootout because San Francisco's defense hasn't been great either. um So it could be just a good back and forth pace type of game there. So again, this kind of piggyback off a baker there.

Running Back Value Analysis & Matchup Insights

00:29:12
Chilly
um I think we got to look at guys like Chuba Hubbard going up against Chicago.
00:29:18
Chilly
Chuba remains at a pretty good price for any mean he's getting a ton of usage I'm still putting backs, you know solid games here. So I'm still liking Chuba Hubbard um I kind of mentioned them before but I have two gross plays of running back one would be Travis Etn If this is the week if this is the week for it again the Colts run defense is so bad and Like it's not very good. They make, uh, again, the, the Colts defense, they keep, they can't stop nobody. Um, especially on the ground. So if, if it is the week for Travis ETN, uh, this would be the week. And then again, I mentioned him earlier, but the bond a Chan, uh, going up against New England, um, he's just going to be less than 5% owned from one of the most explosive players in the league.
00:30:10
Chilly
um I'm willing to take a shot on that because nobody's playing any dolphins this week. um You know, we'll get the wide receivers here in a second, but it's going to be very rare. You're going to get Tyree kill at less than 5%, but we'll save that. But those would kind of be my two gross plays of the week for running back. And then one more guy, Brian Robinson Jr. um We saw Samir White.
00:30:35
Chilly
gain yards on this horrible Browns defense. So again, for one of the best rushing attacks in the NFL, I think Brian Robinson Jr. is is always going to be a good play, especially against the Browns at home too. So he checks a lot of boxes there.
00:30:51
thedfsdeli
Yeah, did you see the Raiders surpass their season rushing total in one game against the Browns?
00:30:58
Chilly
I just knew it was bad. I'm like Samir White had run for more than like it was bad.
00:31:06
thedfsdeli
Yeah, they had 100.
00:31:06
Baker
Wasn't the averaging like five yards a game going into like, like no bullshit.
00:31:09
thedfsdeli
They had a, they had a, they had a hair over 150 yards through three weeks and then got well over 150 against the Browns in one singular game.
00:31:19
Chilly
yeah that's that's horrible um
00:31:22
Baker
That's not good.
00:31:22
thedfsdeli
That's pretty bad. It's not good. It's not good. I guess, ah I mean, sans Austin Eckler, regardless if he plays or not, I think that Brian Robinson Jr is probably going to be a solid play at running back. I mean, like,
00:31:36
thedfsdeli
in general, I'm not saying this game is going to shoot out because I really don't feasibly see that, but I think there's a nice mini stack in there somewhere.
00:31:44
Chilly
Yeah,
00:31:46
thedfsdeli
Like whether it's Brian Robinson or a pass catcher, we'll talk about here in a second.
00:31:47
Chilly
that's horrible.
00:31:51
thedfsdeli
Um, you know, there's, there's, there's some fantasy goodness to be had. And like I said, this Brown's run defense can be had again, the Raiders had success and they can't, they can't run the ball for shit.
00:32:02
thedfsdeli
So if they can give it up, then, you know, or if they can get it on the Browns, soak in the commies. So I like Brian Robinson Jr as well. Um, do we miss anybody?
00:32:13
thedfsdeli
Anybody else got interest?
00:32:14
Baker
I mean, only thing that you miss is the fact that you mentioned the fact that you like that you like the ones that give it up for you.
00:32:21
thedfsdeli
Baker, I haven't found the ones that give it up for me.
00:32:24
Baker
You got two kids, you found somebody.
00:32:27
thedfsdeli
You're right.
00:32:28
Baker
yeah
00:32:30
thedfsdeli
My babies, my babies.
00:32:32
Chilly
I mean, if Joe, I assume Joe Mixon may be back this week. Um, we saw this Bill's run defense get absolutely cooked by Derek Henry.
00:32:45
thedfsdeli
hey
00:32:45
Chilly
Joe.
00:32:47
thedfsdeli
that's my king our king cooks everybody
00:32:49
Chilly
I, I, um,
00:32:50
thedfsdeli
okay
00:32:52
Baker
but beside besides the Raiders.
00:32:54
thedfsdeli
besides of right
00:32:56
Chilly
um
00:32:57
thedfsdeli
just get warmed up
00:32:59
Chilly
I mean, Joe Mixon in week one, again, the Colts run defense is bad, but like with him in the game, it did look like Houston wanted to establish it. So I think Joe Mixon kind of becomes an intriguing play. Um, maybe you can comment more on James Cook because that seems to be the biggest wildcard on the bills.
00:33:23
thedfsdeli
I think that if the Bills can effectively run their game plan, which they got out of really fast last week, James Cook is going to be an integral part of that. um I think that especially somebody that's probably going to come in with little to no ownership in this matchup. um I think he definitely makes for an interesting play this week if you want to get Not necessarily just in large field, but if you want to pivot off of some of these mid-tier guys like your Kinwalkers and you know guys of that nature, I think James Cook is a really nice option. The only thing that bothered me slightly was throughout the first three weeks, James Cook was the goal line back. He was getting the inside the five carries. And then their first and basically the only goal line look they had last game
00:34:12
thedfsdeli
It was not James Cook. So it was, uh, Ty Johnson.
00:34:16
Baker
Ty Johnson.
00:34:16
thedfsdeli
and yeah It was Ty Johnson. So it's like, is that a role that James could just seceded on that particular carry or is he still going to be the inside the five guys?
00:34:27
thedfsdeli
So I, I'm not saying I love James Cook this week, but if you want to get off the reservation and again into this game somehow, because I think there's going to be points scored.
00:34:38
thedfsdeli
oh James Cook is definitely an interesting way to get into it. So, and like I mentioned in quarterbacks, maybe you just go Josh Allen, James Cook and walk away. And then run it back with Nico on the other side, or maybe like you mentioned with Joe Mixon, this is this is because they want to establish it.
00:34:55
thedfsdeli
I like that.
00:34:55
Baker
That is so much money with Nico so much No Actual like NFL or talking about fantasy No
00:34:59
thedfsdeli
But he's so good.
00:35:02
Chilly
I mean, he's probably he's probably floating flirting with being a top five wide receiver.
00:35:15
Chilly
Actual NFL. I think he's s flirting with it.
00:35:22
Baker
I mean i'm i mean i'm not kicking devon say adams out of my top five i'm not kicking tarry kill joshan jefferson uh amaran saint brown Or jamar chase out of my top five. Who's the who's you who's he removing?
00:35:33
thedfsdeli
Amen. Uh, Devontae Adams is removing himself from Vegas.
00:35:39
Baker
He's a hamstring injury I mean he walked into he walked into antonio pierce's office like
00:35:41
thedfsdeli
Yeah. he Oh yeah. He, yeah. He has a hamstring injury. Baker sure.
00:35:45
Chilly
I mean, I mean.
00:35:45
thedfsdeli
He sure does. Yeah. That's going to magically heal.
00:35:53
Baker
ah
00:35:53
thedfsdeli
Ah, a
00:35:55
Baker
ah
00:35:56
thedfsdeli
a
00:35:59
Chilly
I mean, I think he could definitely I think he could definitely take out a man Ross, a brown.
00:36:05
Baker
He is the god of the sun. No, absolutely not. that That'd be like me doing a show sober.
00:36:09
thedfsdeli
How many, how many, how many passing touchdowns does Nico Collins have this year?
00:36:18
thedfsdeli
How many does on Mount Ross St. Brown have?
00:36:20
Baker
Uno.
00:36:20
thedfsdeli
I rested my case.
00:36:22
Baker
Uno.
00:36:23
thedfsdeli
I rested my case.
00:36:23
Chilly
It's like how many how many receiving touchdowns did Jared Goff have this year? How many does Travis Kelsey have?
00:36:33
thedfsdeli
How many does Mark Andrews have?
00:36:34
Baker
Wow. Wow.
00:36:39
Chilly
Well, that's an.
00:36:39
thedfsdeli
Let me say I'm a porta half.
00:36:40
Baker
Well, hold on, hold on, hold on. Sully, Sully, Sully.
00:36:43
thedfsdeli
Yeah.
00:36:44
Baker
Just, just said over the last two weeks, Jared golf has more touchdowns that Mark Andrews has catches.
00:36:54
Chilly
Impressive.
00:37:00
thedfsdeli
ah Rest in peace to the tight end position.
00:37:02
Chilly
Facts, dude.
00:37:06
thedfsdeli
ri really We barely knew you.
00:37:06
Chilly
Facts.
00:37:09
Baker
We didn't give a fuck about you big to begin with Who cares
00:37:13
thedfsdeli
The days of play Travis Kelsey or who cares is now who cares.
00:37:20
thedfsdeli
Ah, okay. Let's talk about our receiver. Uh, you mentioned, we've mentioned Nico at nauseam so far. Obviously this matchup is just

Wide Receiver Picks & Defense Weaknesses

00:37:29
thedfsdeli
fine. The bills continue to get more and more hurt on defense. Now their third down only pass rusher, Bob Miller suspended. I mean, it's just, it's not looking too great for anybody to solidify anything on that defense. So no one has stopped Nico Collins so far. I don't think it's going to start here. So, and once again, like we mentioned off air. Oh, oh, Dougie, Dougie McDurms.
00:37:57
Baker
He's.
00:37:58
thedfsdeli
He's got one objective.
00:37:59
Baker
I'm number one.
00:38:00
thedfsdeli
Stop that dude. Fuck that guy.
00:38:02
Baker
We're not letting that do she goes.
00:38:06
thedfsdeli
If you don't know who that dude is, we got the, uh, we got the revenge game for a Mr. Stefan digs. So if I know anything about the Buffalo bills and that coaching staff, they can get beat by anybody else. It ain't going to be Steph.
00:38:22
thedfsdeli
So this is another Nico Collins week, and I have no problem paying that price tag, so. But chill, where do you stand other than Nico at the Y receiver position?
00:38:35
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, again, I mean, I really like Deebo this week. um Yeah, I don't know what type of ownership he's really going to garner this week, but I do like Deebo Samuel this week. I do like being somewhat into that game, whether it's Jordan Mason, Deebo. I think if you're playing one of the Cardinals guys, whether it's Marvin Harrison Jr., um I don't think that's a bad move either.
00:39:04
Chilly
um I do like that game as a whole you know the quote-unquote anonymous wide receiver we yet to mention Amari Cooper um again i Washington's defense they can't really stop anybody yes Amari had a really bad drop last week but he also had like an 80-something yard touchdown callback um so it's not like he
00:39:27
Baker
On a Phantom hold Phantom.
00:39:29
Chilly
It was a really bad call. like I don't really sympathize with Browns ah fans, but like i kind of I kind of gave them that one. I'm like, y'all kind of got screwed on that one. but So again, i mean just just taking a look here at some of these guys. Obviously, saw you mentioned Nico Collins. No matter what he's getting there, it just doesn't really matter.
00:39:56
Chilly
Um, I think we all liked Michael Pittman Jr. this week before we found out Anthony Richardson was coming back. Um, although, although like he did have one reception for 30 yards with, with Anthony Richardson in there. So like the ham was like, it was starting. It was speaking.
00:40:15
thedfsdeli
Oh yeah. One catch for 30 yards will get us there.
00:40:17
Chilly
It was speaking.
00:40:18
thedfsdeli
Chill. You're right. Yeah. One catch for 30.
00:40:20
Chilly
It was speaking. Now listen, Jacksonville's defense is horrible.
00:40:21
thedfsdeli
What's uh, it is bad.
00:40:26
Chilly
It is really bad. um Again, you know wi if if Taylor is out, it could pass a little bit more, or Anthony Richardson could run a little bit more, I guess, in hindsight.
00:40:27
thedfsdeli
It's bad.
00:40:38
Chilly
But um you know just kind of looking at it this week, it's not. We mentioned it. DJ Moore's in the revenge game. um So again, I do like the Bears guys.
00:40:52
Chilly
So if you want to play, I think he was referred to at the old draft there as Roman Adunze. So but if you want to play some ah some Roman Adunze,
00:41:10
Chilly
a go on ahead.
00:41:11
thedfsdeli
You want to acknowledge, acknowledge our tribal chief, Roman Adunze.
00:41:11
Chilly
and Yeah, you can go on ahead and and play him.
00:41:21
Chilly
Again, matching the pack the Packers guys. uh again breed and wicks um i don't know man white receiver it's kind of very intriguing no it's not
00:41:35
thedfsdeli
Listen, first of all, you need to correct a statement that you said it wasn't the aforementioned receiver or Mari Cooper. I was alluding to. No, no, no. It was Jerry Muck and Judy. This is Jerry Judy week. I'm telling you, I'm tell, I will put, I will put the two, two bet against anybody you want. It's me. It is Jerry Judy week. Book it. That's the Cleveland Brown. You needed your lineup this week. I'm going with my main man, Jerry Judy. That's going to be the Brown you need. Watch.
00:42:13
thedfsdeli
Watch Baker.
00:42:20
thedfsdeli
you got to You got, you got something to say to me. You got something to say, huh? Huh? Huh? Jerry Judy.
00:42:25
Baker
I don't feel like I'm, I don't feel like I'm drunk enough. Like to untie, to fathom the words of Jerry Judy week.
00:42:29
thedfsdeli
Baker.
00:42:34
thedfsdeli
It's Jerry Judy week.
00:42:37
Baker
The fuck are you like, are you drunk? Are you smoking something? Are you shooting something?
00:42:42
thedfsdeli
It's that.
00:42:42
Baker
Snorting something like what orifice or something going into your body for you to say something that ass and.
00:42:50
thedfsdeli
Listen. Okay. So hear me out. Hear me out. Here's the conspiracy theory. Okay. Just like we talked about off air, the Kansas city chiefs need a receiver. And I think the only one that makes sense minus the reuniting of a bad relationship with Tyreek Hill is Amari Cooper. The Browns lose this game, which they will.
00:43:11
thedfsdeli
ah commies are going to beat the Browns. Believe that. I think there's a certain guy that they may want to protect so they can trade his ass. And that's Amari Cooper. I'm not saying the snaps are going to be reduced or anything. Maybe they don't want, they don't need to show him off because he's an eight time pro bowler. They know what they're going to get. I think they need to, they need to pepper the investment that they made in Jerry Judy. And I think this is a guy that has shown flashes throughout the season in brief stints that he could be the guy for the Sean Watson. Now, if you're going to consider playing him, even with the chief coming back, hopefully, I think that against this commies defense, they're going to be playing from behind. And I think there's going to be opportunities for some cheap ones, some cheap ones to Jerry Judy this week. So it might be a gross play. I know it's a gross play because you already hated it.
00:44:06
thedfsdeli
But matchup, circumstance, Jerry Judy. and i'm just I'm just going with Jerry Judy, man. And then if Malik neighbors plays, fire him up.
00:44:18
thedfsdeli
You just gotta fire up some elite neighbors.
00:44:20
Chilly
I think if Malik neighbors plays, he probably just played both of the Seahawks guys, right?
00:44:20
thedfsdeli
And Yeah.
00:44:28
Baker
Who are the, who are the both that you're talking about?
00:44:31
Chilly
Uh, DK Metcalf and JS on.
00:44:37
Baker
I would take Tyler lock it in that.
00:44:40
thedfsdeli
I would take Donkey Kong and just run, um, just run Ken Walker.
00:44:47
Baker
But Sally, are you ready for who I'm willing to take versus, uh, versus Jerry Judy?
00:44:53
thedfsdeli
Uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm ready. I'm ready.
00:44:56
Baker
Like I want to go so far down into the abyss because I feel like that's where I need to go to be putting somebody up against Jerry Judy. Like I feel like I need to give you a $3,000 receiver. So you have a shot.
00:45:05
thedfsdeli
Bro. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it.
00:45:09
Baker
Give me Xavier Laguette.
00:45:14
thedfsdeli
I played Xavier Liget last week, worked out well.
00:45:17
Baker
It did. It did. Like I understand Chicago secondary is not like ah a weak part of their defense, but I think the way Xavier, like get kind of earned his targets. Cause I was kind of fearing that he would just like downfield threat. And that was all he would be. And he was earning targets in the middle of the field, a decent amount. So I liked that. Shout out cut Kirk, Kirk cousins. Can't wait to watch my boy tomorrow and prime time win again so he can, you know, dispatch that narrative again.
00:45:49
Baker
Sorry, I just love Kirk Cousins.
00:45:51
thedfsdeli
And there's nothing wrong with that.
00:45:53
Baker
So here's the interesting thing I think this weekend in Y receiver outside of Nico Collins. Who's another pay up option that people will flock to?
00:46:01
thedfsdeli
I don't know about flock, but chill did mention that this is probably going to be the lowest ownership you will ever see on Tiger Hill.
00:46:08
Baker
Now you'll see lower next week too. Two is not coming back next week, right?
00:46:14
thedfsdeli
Uh, correct.
00:46:14
Baker
No, and and and and that and that he'll he'll he'll be low on next week, too. He'll be low on until to what comes back.
00:46:21
Chilly
not a not Not unless if he does something. Because as soon as you see Tyre, as soon as you see Tyre killed for three receptions and a buck fifty, you're gonna be right back up to twenty percent.
00:46:25
Baker
Then there.
00:46:31
Baker
Was this fucking Randy Moss versus the Cowboys?
00:46:35
Chilly
You saw DeAndre Swift had done shit all week. Got thirty something points. Now I'm gonna be the chalk baker.
00:46:43
Baker
I mean, you make a, food you make a valid point.
00:46:45
thedfsdeli
Hey, he's got a good point.
00:46:46
Baker
You got good point.
00:46:46
thedfsdeli
He's got a good point.
00:46:47
Baker
You got a good point.
00:46:48
thedfsdeli
I mean, the only pay up option I would consider is probably Jamar, right? You know, because he covers himself in baby oil.
00:46:56
Baker
Or the Panthers can't tackle. I'm going to go with the Panthers. Can't tackle more than the covers and stuff. of babel oh I mean, Jamar has success versus Baltimore team and you know,
00:47:02
Chilly
Oh man, that's such a weird game.
00:47:08
Chilly
Since when?
00:47:11
Baker
I mean, his I think one of his biggest fantasy games in his career actually came first, Baltimore.
00:47:16
Chilly
Like two years ago?
00:47:18
Baker
Dude's only been in the league three years.
00:47:20
thedfsdeli
yeah This is still recent news.
00:47:24
Chilly
Hi. Like I can't remember the last time the Bengals beat the Ravens. They struggle. Struggle against that team.
00:47:33
Baker
they They do.
00:47:37
Chilly
Such a.
00:47:37
thedfsdeli
But you want another payoff option.
00:47:37
Baker
i'm i'm so
00:47:38
thedfsdeli
I think it's Jamar Chase or we just all of us just stop at Nico and work our way down.
00:47:41
Chilly
So.
00:47:44
Chilly
I mean, you're you're pay up pay up options, Malik neighbors, if he plays right.
00:47:45
Baker
Like I feel like the Malik neighbor, that expensive enough.
00:47:52
Chilly
He's the third highest wide receiver fourth. Fourth.
00:47:58
Baker
Fifth, right under Marvin Harrison.
00:48:00
Chilly
Yeah, so 50's in the top five. Let's pay up.
00:48:03
Baker
he should He should be like directly under Nico Collins right now.
00:48:10
thedfsdeli
He's a, he's six on Fandule for what it's worth.
00:48:13
Chilly
Right.
00:48:14
Baker
Fuck Fandor. Fandor can't even get their own slate right.
00:48:17
Chilly
Fair.
00:48:17
thedfsdeli
And you know why he's six on Fandule? You know why?
00:48:20
Baker
Because of the Sunday Night Game.
00:48:21
thedfsdeli
Because CD lamb is the most expensive one on Fandule because he's somehow in the night game on the fucking main slate.
00:48:33
Chilly
you You playing TD Lamb this week?
00:48:37
Baker
Yes. Yes he is. Yes he is. Yes he is.
00:48:41
Chilly
Or yeah are you going to play some like chalky, maybe be chalky George Pickens?
00:48:44
Baker
and
00:48:47
thedfsdeli
I'll, uh, I, I, I mean, obviously with Fandoor it's a, it's a late swap option to go down so or up, up, up to him.
00:48:58
Chilly
Right.
00:48:58
Baker
what Steelers running back, would you play out of curiosity, out of curiosity, just talking fan dual for a strict second. What steals running back? Would you play fair?
00:49:05
thedfsdeli
Trusted fields.
00:49:05
Chilly
nahi I would just, I'd go back to Najee.
00:49:12
Baker
I mean, uh, Arthur Smith's, uh, love child in fucking Cornero Patterson is most likely out this week. And as I sit in one group chat, I don't know. I'm in a million group chats. If the goal relationship wise, just to bring it back full circle to our off air conversation. If you can find somebody who loves you the way Arthur Smith loves Correa Patterson, you marry that person.
00:49:38
thedfsdeli
If you can find a person that loves Taysom Hill as much as Sean Payton does, used to, used to.
00:49:42
Baker
yeah
00:49:46
thedfsdeli
That's, that's love. That's real love right there.
00:49:49
Chilly
I think if it was really if it was real love, you would have traded for him.
00:49:52
thedfsdeli
did four o yeah
00:49:56
Baker
I mean, he ain't got no tight ends.
00:49:57
Chilly
It literally has none.
00:50:00
thedfsdeli
He doesn't have a damn quarterback.
00:50:02
Chilly
that's That's not true.
00:50:05
Baker
We're working on some things.
00:50:06
thedfsdeli
My man threw for 60 yards in a dub, 60 yards in a dub.
00:50:08
Chilly
It was a bad weather game, bro.
00:50:14
thedfsdeli
That is so hilarious.
00:50:14
Baker
But I'm going to get, I'm going to get back on track as the person who says off tracking this back on track at them. We're talking wide receiver Sully.
00:50:19
thedfsdeli
You're the one that got me to this whole love thing.
00:50:22
Baker
I know, I know.
00:50:22
thedfsdeli
Now I just want to talk about relationships.
00:50:26
Baker
I mean, my goal tonight is to get you off fucking kilter, but that's neither here nor there. I mean, I think we've ah if we haven't mentioned it yet, the Packers, white receivers, down taping Wicks, Jaden Reed. And I think, to a lesser extent, if the Packers receivers become a lot more popular, the the perfect pivot is literally literally Romeo dubs. You can stay in the passing game and still get different with Romeo dubs, because you know that two, three touchdown game is coming at some point in time this year.
00:50:53
Baker
um
00:50:54
thedfsdeli
This is true. This is true. Or just play Josh Jacobs, like I mentioned.
00:50:56
Baker
Cincinnati, true, those are two great pivot plays. Josh Jacobs and Romeo Dubs, two fantastic like ah pivot plays, wouldn't play them together. Just gonna throw it out there.
00:51:08
Baker
Zaflau, so with a lot of attention to Derek Henry and he's going to be a popular play, what do we think of Zaflau? I think that's ah my next question for you guys.
00:51:18
Chilly
He just played Justice Hill. He's the easier leading wide receiver.
00:51:27
thedfsdeli
He's not wrong. He's not wrong. He's not wrong. That guy is not wrong. Justin Hill or justice Hill looked every bit of explosive against the Buffalo Bills and they get this guy involved.
00:51:27
Baker
What?!
00:51:40
thedfsdeli
I mean like he is a matchup nightmare. They see him on a linebacker. It's it's raps. So I think it's one of those guys that you can kind of sneakily play and probably get the production.
00:51:52
Chilly
Right.
00:51:52
thedfsdeli
So I i actually like Justice Hill in this spot.
00:51:56
Baker
So I'm gonna say the same thing I said to somebody earlier this week. Justice Hill is a play and correct me if I'm wrong. So we saw week one Justice Hill was stupidly involved and Derek Henry was completely ex nade from the offense because they are down to the Chiefs.
00:52:07
Baker
They're throwing, throwing, throwing, throwing, throwing.
00:52:09
thedfsdeli
Right.
00:52:09
Baker
Week two, it wasn't the case. They were up. They just didn't get King Henry involved for some stupid ass fucking reason.
00:52:17
Baker
But I think that the thought process at least would be in Baltimore if they're down, Justice Hills is the person involved. So if we're if we're thinking Justice Hills will play, I have to only play him if we're game scripting this to the point where the Ravens are down.
00:52:31
thedfsdeli
So what you do is that you play that game script and you play Jamar Chase on one side. and Justice Hill on the other. If you have a winning game script, you just play King Henry and walk away. Is that the kind of vibe that I'm getting?
00:52:48
Baker
I guess so. I just, I mean the, the, the, the fucking bangles are giving, giving up damn near five yards before contact.
00:52:53
Chilly
I.
00:52:56
Baker
And that scares me for Derek Henry.
00:52:59
Baker
For fuck's sake.
00:53:03
thedfsdeli
Well, at least we talk about Ravens guys that actually catch the ball. Let's talk about the ones that don't tight end. Um, I'm not playing Mark Andrews. I'm not playing any tight end that is above a certain price point because tight end is a dumb ass position and it

Tight End Position Dismissal & Player Mentions

00:53:19
thedfsdeli
sucks. You play Tucker craft and you walk away. That's my only tight end play this week and whoever fits your lineup tight end is stupid.
00:53:30
thedfsdeli
Y'all can talk about it. I'm not. I'm done.
00:53:35
Chilly
ah He's probably not wrong um I don't mind Colby Parkinson this week if you if you just need a Rams guy If you can't afford Kyron and you might get into that game sure Play what makes sense Also
00:53:55
thedfsdeli
Cool. Great takes. Great. Great. Great takes.
00:53:59
Chilly
just to go back to wide receiver for one second um
00:53:59
thedfsdeli
Great takes.
00:54:02
Chilly
He probably played Deontay Johnson because he's still undervalued.
00:54:10
Chilly
Just tossing it out there. He's probably going to be the chalk again, but he's been pretty good chalk so far.
00:54:16
Baker
I mean, I don't hate it.
00:54:19
thedfsdeli
No, I don't hate.
00:54:19
Chilly
All right.
00:54:19
Baker
I think my I think my favorite play, if he can come back, which is very much up in the air, considering the fact he had a hamstring injury. It's got like my my favorite place got to be Ebony. Like without a hint without a doubt, Ebony room at forty five hundred on DraftKings.
00:54:35
Baker
That is not not your site. Freakin psychopath.
00:54:38
Chilly
I think on FanDuel you run out the moose.
00:54:39
thedfsdeli
Yeah.
00:54:41
Chilly
No Michael Parsons.
00:54:44
thedfsdeli
Yeah. you Yeah. Yeah. Definitely could run out the move getting loose.
00:54:51
Baker
But other besides that, i like i'm I'm struggling with this Brock Bowers thing. I'm struggling because we've seen like the highs and the lows of Brock Bowers already in his short NFL career.
00:55:06
Chilly
Baker, I would rather pay 300 more dollars for George Kittle against the Cardinals.
00:55:15
Chilly
that man does have That man does have a reputation for absolutely nuking the Cardinals.
00:55:16
thedfsdeli
He's not wrong.
00:55:23
Baker
I mean, he has a reputation for showing out at home too, and they are at home.
00:55:24
thedfsdeli
He's not wrong.
00:55:28
thedfsdeli
And it's the pivot off of Jordan Mason.
00:55:32
Baker
But I've already said, I'm hitting the lock button on Jordan Mason.
00:55:37
thedfsdeli
You play Jordan Mason. I'm a play George Kittle stack up or paired up with the boy Brock Purdy and Deebo Samuel. And we'll see who goes further than tournaments, sir.
00:55:48
Baker
I would, if you would have only said Brock Purdy and George kiddo, I would have measured a bet that, uh, Jordan Mason outscores them both, but you through, uh, Deebo Sam, you win it. So I can't say that.
00:55:58
thedfsdeli
Yeah, because the other receiver that's there, don't do shit. So he's just kind of there. Unless you want to run out, Juwan Jennings, he's actually good.
00:56:07
Chilly
That's it.
00:56:08
Baker
First of all, Mike Tomlin, Mike Tomlin is fantastic in San Francisco.
00:56:09
Chilly
That's it.
00:56:12
Baker
Okay.
00:56:17
thedfsdeli
That's who the Chiefs should trade for. Fucking Brandon fucking got his money and not doing shit I hook. My god.
00:56:25
Baker
You show out in fucking cen and Cincinnati in Kansas City.
00:56:29
thedfsdeli
Oh, for sure. Without question. But man, that dude has just been MIA.
00:56:38
thedfsdeli
But he I think he's I think he's damn near unplayable at this point.
00:56:39
Baker
Probably partying.
00:56:43
thedfsdeli
I don't know.
00:56:43
Baker
Damn near.
00:56:45
Chilly
he's gonna have a game where he breaks the slate like that's gonna happen but like i don't think i'll be there
00:56:51
thedfsdeli
It ain't week five. It ain't week five.
00:56:53
Baker
The crazy thing about Brandon, are you breaking the slate weeks is it'll it'll be a two touchdown game, but he he doesn't break it in such a way to the point you can't survive it.
00:57:02
thedfsdeli
He doesn't Joanne Jennings break the slate.
00:57:05
Chilly
you
00:57:05
Baker
He doesn't Deebo Samuel break the slate.
00:57:08
thedfsdeli
Yeah, when Devo breaks the mother area that that bitch is broken.
00:57:11
Baker
Like he puts that bitch over his knee and it's like, you need me.
00:57:15
thedfsdeli
Yeah, you need me period. period ah Can we talk about defenses real quick?
00:57:20
Baker
Why?
00:57:21
Chilly
Yeah.
00:57:22
thedfsdeli
I don't know. Just because we have to or contractually obligated

to.
00:57:26
Chilly
We do have.
00:57:26
Baker
We don't have a contract with defense.
00:57:28
Chilly
We have an obligation for the people.
00:57:31
Baker
Patriots reasons.
00:57:33

Commanders.
00:57:33
Baker
I don't care.
00:57:35
Chilly
Broncos.
00:57:36
Baker
All right. Can we move on?
00:57:38
Chilly
I think we just hit the most chalk defenses.
00:57:41
Baker
No, you guys hit the most chalk defense.
00:57:43
thedfsdeli
yeah
00:57:43
Baker
The Patriots defense is not chalk.
00:57:45
Chilly
It's twenty nine hundred on draft kings, bro. It's going to be chalk.
00:57:49
Baker
The Panthers defense will be chalkier than the Patriots guarantee it.
00:57:52
Chilly
No way.
00:57:52
thedfsdeli
The commies defense is 3500 on Fandool. That's the chart.
00:57:57
Baker
That's shock.
00:58:00
Chilly
Yeah, for, for $500 more dollars, I can get to the, uh, to the, uh, to the Broncos or on, or on fan dual, the, you can play the Panthers defense at 3,100 against Caleb Williams.
00:58:00
thedfsdeli
ah Like get to the Broncos.
00:58:18
thedfsdeli
I can play Caleb Williams and the Panthers defense together.
00:58:21
Baker
What's this, James Winston?
00:58:23
thedfsdeli
Why not?
00:58:25
Baker
Fuck it.
00:58:25
Chilly
You could.
00:58:25
Chilly
I don't hate it.
00:58:26
Baker
Yolo.
00:58:27
thedfsdeli
Right.
00:58:30
thedfsdeli
Fucking right.
00:58:32
Chilly
I mean, if Malik Neighbors doesn't play, you probably just play the Seahawks, right?
00:58:33
thedfsdeli
ah
00:58:38
Baker
That's fine too.
00:58:39
thedfsdeli
That's fine. Seahawks at home. Yeah. Sign me up.
00:58:43
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, if if you're going to
00:58:44
Baker
Run DK, ah Ken Walker and the defense full send.
00:58:52
thedfsdeli
And I agreed with you.
00:58:56
thedfsdeli
I agree. Well, uh, Baker, as we conclude the show tonight, I need to know the people need to know

That's my favorite double.
01:00:26
Chilly
That's what I was torn between that one. I was going to say any version of the 49ers you want to stack, I think it's fine.
01:00:34
thedfsdeli
Yeah, I think it could be one of them days, one of them days.
01:00:36
Chilly
I think if you want to play Jordan Mason and like Deebo without Purdy, I think that's fine. I think if you want to go Purdy with Kittle and Mason, I think that's fine. I think you just want to go Purdy with two pass catchers. I think, I think it's fine.
01:00:52
thedfsdeli
Yeah, there you go, Baker. that's the way to That's the way to include more to your lock button Jordan Mason play. and just play Just add on more 49ers.
01:01:02
Baker
No.
01:01:03
thedfsdeli
You're a loss, bro. You're a loss.
01:01:06
Baker
When Jordan Mason scores every single touchdown for the 49ers.
01:01:10
Chilly
Baker, he can still score three touchdowns, but the 49ers can still score 35 points.
01:01:18
Baker
And like I said, the 49ers scored 35 points.
01:01:19
Chilly
Like, he's not.
01:01:21
Baker
He's scoring five touchdowns, chill.
01:01:24
thedfsdeli
Bet that prop right now. Bet it. Bet it. Bet it. Bet it. Put 50 on the Jordan Mason three touchdown game. Bet it right now. Bet it.
01:01:33
Chilly
I don't even think it's going to be that high of a of a prop. I'm going to look on FanDuel, see what it is.
01:01:39
thedfsdeli
Yeah. You look, we're going to go ahead and wrap it up for the night.
01:01:42
