Introduction to Week 12 NFL DFS
00:00:01
Sully Shaheed
Welcome, welcome to week 12 in the NFL DFS Streets. We are here to bring you all the classic tapes here on the DFS Deli. And remember, any takes that we give to you that are wrong on Sunday, all you got to do is blame Geno Smith.
00:00:16
Sully Shaheed
This is the DFS Deli. Open signs are on, pull up a chair. It is time for week 12 in the DFS Deli. Let's go.
00:00:39
Sully Shaheed
And welcome in to the DFS Deli. I, of course, am the proprietor of this delicatessen, Salih Ali Shahid. And I am rocking the Pat McAfee for tonight's show. You liking the getup show? You liking the getup?
00:00:52
Chilly
I mean, it's expected after, you know, your pre-work activities. So I get it. I get it.
00:00:58
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and if you haven't noticed that someone is very, very late to work, so I gave him the night off. So in Baker's steed, is going to be myself, the proprietor, and of course, my co-host, Chili. Chili, welcome to week 12. It is the slate before the Thanksgiving slate, so we get to do this two times next week.
00:01:20
Sully Shaheed
Are we excited? we excited?
00:01:22
Chilly
Yeah, man, Thanksgiving slate, always fun. I've usually had some pretty good Thanksgiving slates, so I'm just ready to get the dive on into week 12 here.
00:01:28
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, same, same.
00:01:34
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, week 12 is upon us and it's going to be some interesting football games. But we saw basically what was the most tilting week of all time in week 11. So hopefully some normalcy is restored this week and we can actually get some good takes. So, but yeah, we sent Baker along on his Thanksgiving break early. Actually, because he said he is going to try to do the show with Steph in California, right? Because we do have two next week. So.
00:02:02
Chilly
It's Baker, man. He's going to be three hours behind. So...
00:02:06
Sully Shaheed
yeah, yeah. Different time zone. That's right. That's right. That's right. Well, we'll see if he gets, gets the, you know, let off the leash a little bit when he's visiting his girlfriend.
00:02:16
Sully Shaheed
So, uh, yes, absolutely.
00:02:17
Chilly
We will see.
Recap of Week 11 and Thanksgiving Plans
00:02:19
Sully Shaheed
How was week 11 for you, buddy?
00:02:21
Chilly
It was okay. I made a little bit of money on the afternoon only slate. Nothing great.
00:02:29
Chilly
Unfortunately, my stacks didn't pan out this week in the early only. I was kind of cooking early, but my Singletary pieces, like just one-offs did well, but my stacks didn't really do much.
00:02:46
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, because you didn't stack Jacoby Brissett with Michael Wilson and Greg Dorch and Trey McBride. So, I mean, it was triples.
00:02:54
Chilly
Right.
00:02:56
Sully Shaheed
They were cooking. They cooking.
00:02:59
Chilly
That was a lot of Jacoby.
00:03:01
Sully Shaheed
Was I a week early on that hot take, or did I say that last week that Jacoby Brissett was going to be a top three quarterback this week? Was that last week or the week before?
00:03:10
Chilly
it was last. I feel like it was last. It may have been last week. Could been the week before.
00:03:14
Sully Shaheed
Because Jacoby, he was cooking.
00:03:17
Sully Shaheed
was cooking.
00:03:19
Chilly
It's nice when they get put into a hole pretty early and then they can just throw.
00:03:23
Sully Shaheed
Which is every game, Joe.
00:03:26
Chilly
Every game.
00:03:27
Sully Shaheed
That defense is sauce. But as long as Jacoby Percet's slinging the rock, he is on the menu for the week, let me tell you.
DFS Deli Show Format and Tribute to Lost Players
00:03:36
Sully Shaheed
But before we get into the main slate, of course, if you don't know what we do here on the DFS Deli, we break down all our favorite plays at each position to see where we can lead you to a winning lineup here on the Week 12 slate.
00:03:47
Sully Shaheed
But before do any of that, as customary here on the DFS Deli, we must pay tribute to those we lost in Week 12. So if you have your favorite beverage near water, soda, any alcoholic beverage,
00:04:05
Sully Shaheed
My choice is water tonight. We pay tribute to the fallen. Michael Penix Jr. Josh Jacobs.
00:04:24
Sully Shaheed
The starting career, think this is the second time we said it, to Justin Fields.
00:04:31
Sully Shaheed
RIP, your starting career. Tyrod Taylor's in the revenge game this week. To those we have lost, you will remembered and we will see you soon. To a speed of recovery, to the fallen.
00:04:47
Chilly
You forgot the wide receiver that goes with
Player Performances and Fantasy Strategies
00:04:49
Chilly
Michael Penix.
00:04:55
Sully Shaheed
Drake London, it's been real. You will be missed. To a speed recovery, Drake London.
00:05:02
Chilly
Jamar Chase quit spitting on people and then saying you did it.
00:05:13
Sully Shaheed
I love Mike Tomlin. He did what any man would do. I remember Dakota Prescott getting spat on before the game even started. He was fine. He didn't swing on anybody. I'm just saying.
00:05:25
Chilly
I mean, somebody spits on me, I'm swinging.
00:05:28
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but you're not in the NFL either. You don't have multi-million dollar job to perform.
00:05:34
Chilly
I mean, Jamar Chase gets suspended to not play a game with the Bengals. It kind maybe worked out in his favor.
00:05:41
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I don't know, man.
00:05:43
Chilly
The only part...
00:05:45
Sully Shaheed
I don't know.
00:05:46
Chilly
I just don't like the fact that he flat-out lied about it. He said, I didn't spit on him. And then he appealed it. What are you appealing? I know if Jordy Nelson just looked at that for 5.5 seconds and be like, what are we doing here?
00:06:00
Sully Shaheed
You got me, bro. You got me. I can't even call it, man. It's little ridiculous. But, Chill. I think you have some business to take care of on a certain dusty bus that we need to pick up some folks.
00:06:14
Chilly
Yeah. Yeah, I think the dust bus is making its way I think you mentioned him earlier, only because he's had some good fantasy goodness. And he's going to be the youngest person on the bus, but I think we can load up Justin Fields.
00:06:29
Chilly
Yep, I think we can load up Justin Fields. I don't know if we swooped up and picked up Geno Smith, but now I think we can officially go get Geno Smith.
00:06:40
Chilly
I think he's done.
00:06:40
Sully Shaheed
It's his fault, man. It's his fault.
00:06:43
Chilly
I think we can go on ahead and go pick up Calvin Ridley. He's brittle.
00:06:48
Sully Shaheed
Oh. Oh, yeah, that was another one. I'm sorry.
00:06:52
Chilly
That was your suggestion. I think Cooper Cup, I think he can get on the bus. think Cooper Cup is just about done. Couldn't get it done in the revenge game.
00:07:05
Chilly
Derek Henry once again has fought off the dust bus, and I think he will get a break from the dust bus. He does get the Jets this week, so we'll cover that when we need to.
Quarterback Analysis for Week 12
00:07:16
Chilly
Is there any – Kirk Cousins is going be the only starting QB on the bus.
00:07:23
Sully Shaheed
He's going to realize that he should just stay on the back of bus.
00:07:27
Chilly
Yeah.
00:07:28
Sully Shaheed
Like, this is going to be pathetic.
00:07:28
Chilly
Yeah.
00:07:32
Sully Shaheed
The Falcons did come out and say they're going to be more run-centric. But at the same time, if you're coming out and telling everyone else that, I mean, I would load up a box against Kurt freaking Cousins.
00:07:43
Sully Shaheed
So...
00:07:44
Chilly
Oh, you forgot one other person on the injury. You know, it's the local. You forgot the local man. Yeah.
00:07:53
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yep.
00:07:59
Sully Shaheed
Dylan Gabriel. It's been real. We wish you speedy recovery in the concussion protocol.
00:08:10
Sully Shaheed
Hey, side note, since we're technically local, everybody got what they wanted, Joe. Everyone got Shador on the field. And boy, did he crap his pants.
00:08:23
Chilly
Yeah, I mean...
00:08:23
Sully Shaheed
Holy crap.
00:08:25
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, again, if you listen to any radio or any show, sports talk, sports argument, debate shows, whatever you want, you could hear former players saying, backups don't get reps.
00:08:39
Chilly
You hear players saying, backups do get reps. So only the good Lord knows what actually happens in the NFL because Lord knows I'm not in it. Yeah.
00:08:52
Chilly
He got blitzed a lot. We'll cover defense, which might be short. Just take both defenses in that game at that point, but we'll get to that bridge.
00:09:02
Chilly
I know for S's and G's, I will probably just have a Shador line up in afternoon only, just for fun.
00:09:08
Sully Shaheed
Oh, man, you don't lost your mind. You don't lost your mind.
00:09:14
Chilly
But that's, again, just for fun. So,
00:09:17
Sully Shaheed
For funsies.
00:09:20
Chilly
but yeah, I mean, so yeah, he was four for 16. He, I mean, he, he now gets the full reps with the starters. I mean, did you, were you on the rumor that like they were going to maybe try to start Deshaun Watson?
00:09:37
Sully Shaheed
No, no. I haven't listened to lot of Cleveland radio over the past few days since Shador shit his pants. So, yeah.
00:09:46
Chilly
They were talking...
00:09:46
Sully Shaheed
But, I mean, is he healthy? Like, what are we talking about the shot watching?
00:09:50
Chilly
I think they were literally talking about, like, does Deshaun Watson start a game before the year ends?
00:09:57
Sully Shaheed
Well, I think it's got something to do with the cap or some money they can recoup if he doesn't touch the field. I know they were talking about that, but that might be a reason financially.
00:10:10
Sully Shaheed
But at the same time, I think we'll see Bailey Zappi start a game before we see Deshaun Watson start game.
00:10:16
Chilly
I mean, we'll see. Yeah, it's just playing football in Cleveland, Ohio, it's just not good.
00:10:25
Sully Shaheed
It's a death sentence, man. It's a straight-up death sentence. That's for freaking sure. But anywho, we get to talk quarterbacks here now because we're going to get into it with our favorite QB takes of the week.
00:10:37
Sully Shaheed
I know you mentioned for S's and G's, there might be a little Shador action. But again, early Wednesday night, ownership projections according to 444, at least on my site, look like this.
00:10:48
Sully Shaheed
For DraftKings, your favorite Patrick Mahomes is coming in as the chalk. We got some love for Drake May in a juicy matchup against Cincinnati.
00:11:00
Sully Shaheed
Trevor Lawrence getting some love, along with, of course, our main man, Jacoby Brissett. And Lamar gets
Strategies for QB and WR Selection
00:11:06
Sully Shaheed
the Jets. So, like, you know, there's that. But out of this group of gentlemen, which are you leaning towards?
00:11:16
Chilly
I don't think I'm going to get up to Mahomes this week. I don't know. It's a weird game with Indianapolis coming off the bye week. Obviously, they bolstered up their secondary with Sauce Gardner. Again, that's just a really weird game, and I don't know which way more or less it's going to go.
00:11:39
Chilly
Jacoby Brissett, again, makes a ton of sense. I believe the Cardinals are at home against Jacksonville. Jacksonville's defense is kind of like middle of the pack. They do have a good pass rush. My only concern here is Jacksonville is not one to get up 30-0 by the start of the second quarter.
00:11:59
Sully Shaheed
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:12:01
Chilly
Jacksonville is becoming more run-centric. so that kind of concerns me a little bit in this game. Does, does Jacksonville essentially just get the ball and just start kind of sitting on it?
00:12:11
Chilly
mean, last week, Justin Herbert only threw for 88 yards. So, so again, here, that is a little bit concerning to me. honestly, would rather play, for a hundred dollars more. I'd rather play Sam Darnold at the Titans.
00:12:29
Chilly
Sam Darnold, if Sam Darnold does one thing in his resurrection, he beats the ever-living crap out of bad teams. So coming off of this four interception game, again, at Tennessee, I'm really not worried about the whole West Coast to East Coast thing. We've seen this team go down to Jacksonville and absolutely beat down the Jags. So I'm really not worried about the travel. But I'd be more interested because nobody's playing Sam Darnold.
00:12:55
Chilly
So especially after a four interception game, I'd rather play Darnold over Brissette, truthfully.
00:13:03
Sully Shaheed
Okay, so any interest in paying all the way up to Drake May? I mean, he gets matchup.
00:13:07
Chilly
Oh, yeah. I mean, think Drake May at this point, I'm going to have a Drake May lineup. I think everybody here on the deli is going to have a Drake May lineup. Again, against the Bengals.
00:13:20
Sully Shaheed
I don't know. don't know. We'll see where get there. It's Wednesday. It's Wednesday. It's Wednesday.
00:13:27
Chilly
I mean, the Bengals are so bad against quarterbacks. Again here, the Patriots are likely to go in there, beat down Cincinnati and kind of just go from there, man. But if I'm paying all the way up, I'm probably just going to pay for Lamar against the Jets.
00:13:47
Chilly
The Jets did okay against Drake May, but, like, he still got there.
00:13:52
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah.
00:13:53
Chilly
like, again here, especially right now, like, the ownership right now on Lamar to me is kind of, It's kind of tame right now. Like, I don't know if it kind of stays this low or whatever the case may be here, but, like, if his ownership kind of stays where it's at, I kind of like it, truthfully.
00:14:12
Sully Shaheed
Well, he's been sus. I mean, he hasn't produced good fantasy game since he came back. He's been okay. But, like, he's yet to pass for over 300 yards this year. And his touchdown efficiency is what's been getting him there.
00:14:24
Sully Shaheed
And we thought, you know, he could have that floor with the rushing. And we really haven't seen it, like, Lamar-esque. So I don't think this situation is a time where we get slate-breaking Lamar.
00:14:36
Sully Shaheed
I think we get Lamar in a win, but not like I needed Lamar to win a tournament last week. And the funny thing about the meta lately behind these high-priced QBs is that you didn't need them, right?
00:14:50
Chilly
No.
00:14:50
Sully Shaheed
Because you needed the other skill positions to actually fill out the lineup. So yes, Josh Allen nuked the slate last week. You actually needed Jacoby Brissett and his pass catchers to jam in Bijan and jam in... Who else went off last week?
00:15:06
Sully Shaheed
Who I missing?
00:15:07
Chilly
Well, you want random guys or real guys?
00:15:08
Sully Shaheed
It was... For real, guys. It was another high-priced running back that went off.
00:15:13
Sully Shaheed
Who am I missing?
00:15:15
Chilly
High-priced running back that went off.
00:15:17
Sully Shaheed
Well, you needed to jam in McBride, who was the highest-priced tight end.
00:15:21
Chilly
You need a Bichon.
00:15:21
Sully Shaheed
So it's like you needed those guys.
00:15:22
Chilly
Yeah.
00:15:23
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, needed Bijan. So it's just like... even if you pay up for the nuking potential of a Lamar Jackson, of a Josh Allen who's not on the slate, Jalen Hurts to a lesser extent, and we'll talk about that here in a second, it's these low-priced guys that are actually allowing you to fit in the rest of the pieces that you need.
Slate-Breaking Quarterbacks Discussion
00:15:42
Sully Shaheed
So if I'm not going to get slate-breaking Lamar, I'm just going to pay all the way down to Jacoby Brissett. But again, to your point, is that the Jaguars going to run the living piss out of the football.
00:15:53
Sully Shaheed
So if they get a lead, the meta with the Cardinals is that they're down 21-0 in the blink of an eye, and then Jacoby Brissett has to pass the rest of the game.
00:15:54
Chilly
Yes, they do.
00:16:04
Sully Shaheed
don't think the Jaguars care. It's like as soon they get on offense, they're just going pound it down your throat, and then all of a sudden the game's over.
00:16:09
Chilly
Literally. Literally. Yeah, I mean, that game against the Chargers last week, man, that game was, like, done, and, like, every other game just hit the fourth quarter. Yeah.
00:16:19
Sully Shaheed
That's what I'm saying. So we can find ourselves in a similar situation with Jack. I don't think there's, there is potential for upside, obviously, but I think because of how the Jaguars are figuring out how to play football now is that if they're up seven to nothing, 14 nothing, 14, whatever, they're going to run the shit out of a ball.
00:16:39
Sully Shaheed
And that's not good for fantasy goodness.
00:16:39
Chilly
Yeah.
00:16:42
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:16:42
Chilly
To me, it looks like Jacksonville wants to build the lead, run the ball. That way they can get after you with their pass rush.
00:16:49
Sully Shaheed
Correct. And they have a really good pass rush. I will admit, Jacksonville, I wasn't familiar with your game. I'm not going to rag on you anymore until you start losing games that you probably shouldn't. Let's talk about the Cowboys and Eagles because it's one of the bigger totals on the slate.
00:17:04
Sully Shaheed
What are you doing with this game?
00:17:08
Chilly
If I'm playing this game, it's from the Eagles side. I don't, I mean, Dak and them did have, like, the Cowboys offense can beat anybody any given day.
00:17:19
Chilly
Doesn't really matter the defense. I'll get the stat wrong. know I'll be pretty close. Dak Prescott and his career against Philadelphia at home, think he's like 6-1.
00:17:25
Sully Shaheed
Oh.
00:17:31
Chilly
for his career against Philadelphia at home. Against the NFC East in general, he's like 20-something in like four. It's something crazy. So, like, Dak Prescott statistically does feast on NFC East teams at home.
00:17:49
Chilly
but if I'm playing this game, I'm probably playing it from the Hurts side. Because I do believe, like, the Philadelphia wide receivers are pretty cheap.
00:17:59
Sully Shaheed
Because they haven't done shit.
00:17:59
Chilly
So, not a damn thing.
00:18:04
Chilly
It's probably the biggest boom-bust game on the slate, right?
00:18:09
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, and I think about like this, right? So their first meeting, it was 24 to 20, and the game started to cook a little bit until the lightning hit, and then the game literally was over.
00:18:17
Chilly
Right.
00:18:18
Sully Shaheed
Like, no one did anything after that point. So it's like, do we get that for a full game, or do the defenses hunker down to be like, all right, we're going to slow it down, we're going to do this, that, and the third to limit the scoring with both sides? Because like you said, and I agree with you, is that Dallas can score on anybody, but Philly can stop anybody. So it's like,
00:18:38
Sully Shaheed
what are we leading here?
00:18:38
Chilly
Yeah,
00:18:40
Sully Shaheed
Okay, Dallas' defense sucks, but the Eagles' offense sucks. So, where are we going to land?
00:18:47
Chilly
and, too, in that game also, in the second matchup, unless Jalen Carter spits on somebody again, Jalen Carter will be in this matchup.
Cowboys vs Eagles Game Analysis
00:18:56
Chilly
And then you do have Quinton Williams in this matchup as well. I understand they played Las Vegas, and the Vegas offensive line is honestly worse than the Chargers offensive line, and that's saying something.
00:19:09
Sully Shaheed
Pretty bad.
00:19:10
Chilly
So, again, you do have these two big gentlemen back in the middle of these defenses. Couldn't make it for a little bit more of an interesting matchup, but If I play this, I'll probably just play it from the Eagles side pray.
00:19:27
Sully Shaheed
I hear you. I hear you. Before we move on, I got one gross take for you.
00:19:32
Chilly
like it.
00:19:34
Sully Shaheed
Can I interest you in $4,700 Tyler Shook?
00:19:43
Chilly
Against it.
00:19:43
Sully Shaheed
Atlanta is garbage. And they just got lit up by who, Shook?
00:19:49
Chilly
Oh, dude, Bryce Young.
00:19:51
Sully Shaheed
Price Young just had a career game against Atlanta. Atlanta's now their top receiver and their quarterback. Where are they playing offense?
00:20:02
Sully Shaheed
Saints at home, off of bye. I think this is the week where we see Tyler Shuck cook a little bit. And the cool thing about it is he's dirt cheap.
00:20:13
Sully Shaheed
So as we get into the running backs and wide receivers, it'll allow you to jam in some pieces that might get you to the top of your tournament
Budget Quarterbacks Evaluation
00:20:20
Sully Shaheed
leader awards. Because like I said, Jalen Hurts isn't going to nuke the slate, if Lamar Jackson is going to nuke the slate, if Dakota, Drake, Nate, all those high-priced guys, and it misses you out on some of these juicy running back matchups, Tyler Shuck, you could do worse than Tyler Shuck.
00:20:38
Sully Shaheed
Because Atlanta is horrible. Their one claim to fame was their pass defense. And they just let Xavier Leggett and Ted, who doesn't want to be called Ted anymore or ever, I should say, they got cooked by Bryce Young.
00:20:58
Sully Shaheed
So I think this is a good game where we could just stuff in a cheap quarterback. And I think Tyler Shuck is going to be where I'm going on the cheap end.
00:21:06
Chilly
Yeah, again, I think it makes a ton of sense. My only concern is that the Panthers have the fear of a running game where the Saints do not.
00:21:19
Chilly
Like, I feel like Atlanta came in with the intention of stopping the run to make Carolina pass, and Bryce Young just actually played well. Yeah.
00:21:32
Chilly
So that would be my only concern.
00:21:32
Sully Shaheed
Listen, man, let Alvin Kamara off the bus for one week. Just let him off.
00:21:37
Chilly
Listen, man.
00:21:38
Sully Shaheed
Just pit stop. Let him breathe.
00:21:39
Sully Shaheed
Let him stretch his legs.
00:21:40
Chilly
Everybody can earn their way back off the bus, man. You can do it.
00:21:46
Chilly
You can certainly do it.
00:21:47
Sully Shaheed
Let Alvin Kamara come out and play one more time, man. Just one more time because it's Atlanta team. Please, please, begging you.
00:21:54
Chilly
Hey, everybody can earn their way back off.
00:21:58
Sully Shaheed
Any other QB takes we missed before we move on?
00:22:00
Chilly
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we mentioned them off air. You have Jarrett Goff at home against the Giants.
00:22:06
Sully Shaheed
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
00:22:08
Chilly
Only concern is when Goff gets pressured, he's absolutely terrible at the game of football. We've seen it last week. The Lions' offensive line was not able to stop anybody up the middle. Again, the Giants' strength on defense is the D-line. Yeah.
00:22:26
Chilly
Again, here I'm still kind of living on the idea of you probably should have a line in every lineup. This Giants defense gets pretty much cooked in the passing game. If Goff has time, he can easily go for 20 points here.
00:22:42
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, 100%. I think golf is always on the menu, especially after a Lions loss where you know it's time to
Running Backs Potential for Week 12
00:22:49
Sully Shaheed
put the work on somebody. But the absence of Sam LaPorta can't be stated well enough. They looked awful last week.
00:22:57
Sully Shaheed
And again, we'll get there when we get there. But think it's time to establish the run game and a certain pass catcher from the Lions that we might be jamming in this week. So I'm just saying
00:23:09
Chilly
If he plays, nobody's playing Jackson Dart.
00:23:14
Sully Shaheed
No. You should.
00:23:17
Chilly
was going to say, are you interested in Dart and no ownership?
00:23:21
Sully Shaheed
am. I am. I think he's going to play with a little less reckless abandon, which is why we liked playing Jackson Dart. But if anything, man, he gives you a solid rushing four.
00:23:32
Sully Shaheed
He's inexpensive. I mean, 5,600 is not bad for one of these $400 less than Jack's off.
00:23:36
Chilly
Yeah. And I mean, he'll be 1% owned.
00:23:42
Sully Shaheed
I think people like playing Jackson Dart because he's Jackson Dart. I think he'll definitely be about 5%.
00:23:48
Sully Shaheed
But, yeah, he'll still be definitely on the lower end of things.
00:23:48
Chilly
He does.
00:23:52
Chilly
So you think him and Sam Darnold then have the same ownership at that point? Or do you think Dart actually gets higher?
00:23:57
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I would say it's roughly the same.
00:24:00
Chilly
Okay, yeah, because like I said, I probably will have Sam Darnold line-up.
00:24:06
Sully Shaheed
Excellent. right, let's move on running back where we can talk about – A lot of different folks, actually. We got Jameer Gibbs in a nut matchup against the Giants.
00:24:15
Chilly
Okay.
00:24:17
Sully Shaheed
Again, one of the worst rush defenses in the league. I'm assuming that we got news that Ramondre Stevenson is coming back.
00:24:27
Sully Shaheed
Because there is zero reason Travon Henderson's ownership should be this low.
00:24:37
Chilly
they – so, I mean, like, taking a look here, I think ETR does have Ramondre in. But, like, man, don't you just have to kind of take –
00:24:49
Sully Shaheed
don't you think trade beyonds earned it like hasn't he earned it by now
00:24:54
Chilly
Don't you think you almost just have to take a flyer on it? Like last week, we should have taken a flyer on Sean Tucker. Because the Buffalo run defense is so bad.
00:25:01
Sully Shaheed
yeah 100 bad rush defenses just take the shot yes we should have 100 mentioned sean tucker and that is Our apologies for that.
00:25:10
Chilly
So like, I...
00:25:10
Sully Shaheed
The Bills run defense is ass. So has the Bengals run defense. It's ass. And we already saw what a backup running back did to, you know, Cincinnati last week. I mean, hello?
00:25:22
Chilly
Right.
00:25:22
Sully Shaheed
So...
00:25:22
Chilly
Right. Yeah, I don't. If you're telling me his ownership, because like ETR has Travion at like 8%.
00:25:31
Sully Shaheed
Four for four has them at 3%.
00:25:34
Chilly
So there's probably some happy medium there, but like you have to take a flyer on him, right?
00:25:40
Sully Shaheed
100%. He will definitely be in my player pool this week. 100%. I get the Ramadre Stevenson thing, but what more does Travion Henderson have to do? What more?
00:25:50
Chilly
And here's the thing. Even if Ramondre's in, it just takes one big run from Travion.
00:25:57
Chilly
That's it.
00:25:58
Chilly
That's it.
00:25:58
Sully Shaheed
Yes, he's in the player pool.
00:26:00
Sully Shaheed
But minus those two, like I said, Gibbs and Travion at the top.
Running Backs Value Debate
00:26:04
Sully Shaheed
I'm seeing a lot of chalk coming in on Chase Brown. I'm assuming no Samadri Piran again this week. I guess start wherever you want. Who else is going to be in your running back pool this week?
00:26:15
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, Gibbs, I do like me Gibbs this week. With the injury there to Josh Jacobs, you do have Emmanuel Wilson.
00:26:25
Chilly
You figure you're probably going to play a high-priced running back, and then Wilson will probably be the guy most common to go with the high-priced running back.
00:26:36
Chilly
So I do like that this week. You kind of mentioned it earlier with Kirk Cousins. I know when he started, Bijan did absolutely horrible.
00:26:47
Chilly
But if they are going to a more run-oriented game, I think Bijan here makes a ton of sense going up there against the Saints. Saints are kind of middle the road against running backs.
00:26:59
Chilly
But again here, my favorite running backs, I mean, I love Gibbs this week. I'll play Chalky Gibbs. No problem.
00:27:10
Chilly
Derek Henry.
00:27:11
Sully Shaheed
What do you do with Emmanuel Wilson if no JJ?
00:27:15
Chilly
I think you play him, right?
00:27:18
Sully Shaheed
I mean, Minnesota is pretty good against the run. But Emmanuel Wilson did look good in flashes last week. And let's face it, Jordan Love has been ass.
00:27:30
Sully Shaheed
So I think that
00:27:31
Chilly
He hasn't been good. He hasn't been good.
00:27:33
Sully Shaheed
He has not been great. Not great. So I think if they want to establish a run, that's fine. They might do a committee approach with their other back. But at the same time, like, I don't see a necessary spike week from Emmanuel Wilson. Like, he's 5,300.
00:27:47
Sully Shaheed
So it's not like he's, you know, dirt, dirt cheap. He's very affordable. But I don't know. I might not be able to stomach being able to, you know, jam in, per se, Emmanuel Wilson.
00:28:02
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, two, if you don't want to play Emmanuel Wilson, you could play no-owned David Montgomery at the same price.
00:28:12
Sully Shaheed
hear me out, Chill, for $100 cheaper, you can play Ken Walker
00:28:20
Chilly
My only concern, and again, it's Tennessee. I think you could play either Seahawk running back. But like, it's just so 50-50. Yeah.
00:28:31
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, but, but, but, but their coaching staff did come out say they think that Ken Walker has earned more opportunities because of his more efficient running and his explosive play style. Also, he's been more valuable in the pass game as well.
00:28:43
Sully Shaheed
So Zach Charbonnet averaging, what, 3.8 a carry while, you know, Ken Walker's at 4.4, 4.5. So it's like, you know, you have a more efficient running back than Ken Walker.
00:28:54
Sully Shaheed
Tennessee is buns against the run. So you have a chance here to say, even if it's split, And we see Ken Walker get some of the goal line work. I think Ken Walker is probably the best pivot play right there in that price range because people are like, oh, I'm sorry, a hundred dollars more than Emmanuel Wilson.
00:29:12
Sully Shaheed
But Ken Walker has a better matchup and he's not the backup. So it's like, yes, I get the timeshare thing, but I'm, Ken Walker, find that $100.
00:29:24
Sully Shaheed
I think you got a good pivot play and significantly less ownership. And we've seen Ken Walker in the past, not necessarily this year, but in the past with his explosive running style, he can break a 60-yarder off nowhere and be like, well, you needed Ken Walker this week.
00:29:40
Chilly
Yeah, and again here, are you buying this Ashton Gentry ownership?
00:29:46
Sully Shaheed
Uh, let's see. Am I buying the ownership?
00:29:48
Chilly
I got him at like 16%, and that seems really high.
00:29:54
Sully Shaheed
I have them at 19. that seems extremely high and no, I'm not buying that.
00:29:56
Chilly
Okay, so you guys... Yeah, you...
00:30:00
Sully Shaheed
The Raiders offensive line is trash. If it's the one thing that the Browns do well, it is stop the run sans Derrick Henry last week. But as you mentioned for a few times, Derrick Henry didn't look great.
00:30:11
Chilly
No.
00:30:12
Sully Shaheed
I mean, he had the, what, the 53-yarder? I think he broke off against them. But that was it.
00:30:15
Chilly
Yeah.
00:30:16
Sully Shaheed
I mean, like...
00:30:17
Chilly
Yeah. I mean, and again here, obviously going back to Derrick Henry, I do like Derrick Henry this week. If I was going to play a running back from that game...
00:30:24
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:30:26
Chilly
It's got to be a lot of Judkins this week, don't you think?
00:30:30
Sully Shaheed
You would hope.
00:30:32
Chilly
Like, again, again, we're just thinking, you know, rationally here.
00:30:33
Sully Shaheed
A lot of quinchons.
00:30:39
Chilly
Or, I could see Kevin Stefanski literally just letting Shador throw 40 times. That way he could fail. Kevin's...
00:30:48
Sully Shaheed
Just to be proven right.
00:30:53
Chilly
But, like, that could happen. It could just be one middle finger to Jimmy Haslam.
00:30:56
Sully Shaheed
What a day.
00:30:59
Chilly
Like, I told you this dude was a bum.
00:31:02
Chilly
But, again, that's neither here or there.
00:31:07
Sully Shaheed
That's a really good point, actually.
00:31:08
Chilly
I mean, we kind of mentioned this team a little bit in the QB section. Don't you – like, nobody's going to play Travis Etienne?
00:31:19
Chilly
And –
00:31:19
Sully Shaheed
I think that will swing depending on the health of Bysheel Tootin, right?
00:31:25
Sully Shaheed
Because he looks like he practiced today. So it's like, you know, if Bysheel Tootin was kind of out, or not kind of out, but out, then Etienne would be the megachaw. Right?
00:31:35
Sully Shaheed
You're just playing Travis Etienne.
00:31:37
Chilly
I don't think he gets steamed, man. I don't think people want to play Travis Etienne.
00:31:43
Sully Shaheed
I think people don't want to play either Jags running back, but I would take the more explosive one in Bysheel Tootin.
00:31:49
Chilly
And that's fine. I think, me personally, I'm probably taking... I would probably take Etienne. Because they both can get there. Arizona's rush defense is... There's only a couple teams that it's better than... A lot of these teams aren't on the main slate. Again, if we could somewhat trust Alvin Kamara, I'd be interested in Kamara this week.
00:32:11
Chilly
The Falcons are a run funnel. I know they just gave up 450 yards to Bryce Young in the passing game, but they're a run funnel. And plus, you got New Orleans is coming off of the bye as well.
00:32:27
Chilly
They're at home. I think New Orleans is at home for that game. So, I wouldn't be mad about playing Kamara either.
00:32:30
Sully Shaheed
Yes, sir.
00:32:33
Chilly
If you're, if you're just trying to find like a nice little, might be more of a draft Kings play just for a little,
00:32:40
Sully Shaheed
Oh, 100%. 100%. Don't play him on FanDuel. No, no, no, no, no.
00:32:46
Chilly
but yeah, I do, uh, yeah, I mean, I'm just taking a look here at some of these other guys.
00:32:50
Chilly
I mean, we kind of, we, we covered a lot here.
00:32:54
Sully Shaheed
Like said, in the range of what could be a chalky Emmanuel Wilson, Alvin Kamara is 55 and Ken Walker is 54. You got options at less ownership in better matchups.
00:33:07
Sully Shaheed
Just saying.
00:33:09
Chilly
I mean, I know he's probably going to practice at some point this week, but if Jalen Warren somehow gets ruled out, Kenny Gainwell might get a lot more steep.
00:33:24
Sully Shaheed
I can see that. But again, it's late on Wednesday, so that could change.
00:33:27
Chilly
Right. That could change. Do you just want to just go through, like, your favorite high-priced running back of the week?
00:33:36
Chilly
We probably should mention Jonathan Taylor at 10K.
00:33:40
Sully Shaheed
Listen, Jonathan Taylor has nuked how many slates this year?
00:33:46
Chilly
The majority of them.
00:33:48
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, and if he was on the main slate during, what, the London game, he would have nuked another main slate. So it's like, I get it. The 10K price tag is crazy.
00:33:59
Sully Shaheed
The Chiefs are a good defense. However, this is your only opportunity to get Jonathan Taylor at sub 5% ownership. I don't give a damn with some players about the matchup.
00:34:13
Sully Shaheed
If I'm getting the fantasy number one overall running back at less than 5%, I don't care about the price tag. I'm playing Jonathan freaking Taylor.
00:34:25
Sully Shaheed
So to answer your question, Jonathan Taylor is my high price running back, my favorite one. And then you pair him up with an Alvin Kamara or a Ken Walker III.
00:34:36
Sully Shaheed
Boom. Salaries balance out. And like I said, I'm a fan of Tyler Shuck this week. So I could fit me a Jonathan Taylor in a lineup. So don't be surprised if it's like, oh, shit, JT went for 150 and two. And like,
00:34:51
Sully Shaheed
But yes, I get it. The matchup and the price is kind of prohibitive about your lineup builds. I respect that. But it's Jonathan freaking Taylor at less than 5% ownership.
00:35:06
Sully Shaheed
Find the money.
00:35:10
Chilly
Right. I mean, yeah, for me, I'm pretty much a big fan of Gibbs this week in terms of the high price for any backs.
00:35:10
Sully Shaheed
And that's all have to say about that.
00:35:19
Chilly
If we kind of get into this like six to or the seven to six K range, I'm probably not playing Chase Brown. I will probably take a take a shot on Travion Henderson if his ownership is going to be that low.
00:35:31
Sully Shaheed
Right. Right.
00:35:37
Chilly
You mentioned earlier, I do like Ken Walker here myself in terms of that. So those are kind of the guys I'm just kind of taking a look at. And I do like ETN, even if Tootin is ruled in. like ETN here against the Cardinals.
00:35:53
Chilly
Like said, I think the Jags want to run the ball 30 times every game now.
Receiver Selections and Strategic Planning
00:36:00
Sully Shaheed
Fair, fair. Let's switch over to our receiver where ownership on a late Wednesday night. Again, things could change. I'm Ross St. Brown on 444 leads the way with Jackson Smith and Jigba. Rasheed Rice, a little Wandale Robinson. I don't know why y'all keep playing Wandale Robinson. Stop it.
00:36:16
Sully Shaheed
Just quit. But whatever. Steph Diggs, of course, the nut matchup. We got a Packers receiver, Romeo Dobbs. And then Mike Wilson and T Higgins, of course, with the absence of Jamar Chase this week.
00:36:31
Sully Shaheed
Jamison Williams also comes in at a double digit ownership. And both of the Philadelphia receivers are garnering some ownership. So where are your receiver builds going to start this week?
00:36:42
Chilly
Yeah, so, I mean, with me, I already mentioned Sam Darnold. So, my Sam Darnold lineups are definitely going to have JSN in it.
00:36:49
Sully Shaheed
What?
00:36:51
Chilly
I mean, there's no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Again, here, let's not pretend that Tennessee is a good team.
00:36:54
Sully Shaheed
Right.
00:36:58
Chilly
They are actually, like, top five of giving it up to wide receivers. It's some kind of... interested here in JSN. think, I mean, you kind of mentioned it. We can touch on it now. The Philadelphia guys are really intriguing.
00:37:27
Sully Shaheed
Right.
00:37:27
Chilly
Again here, let's not pretend that this Cowboys defense
00:37:32
Chilly
Again, Quentin Williams is a great player, but how much better does he really make them? And this would be the game to where they could really just feed into A.J. Brown's ego little bit.
00:37:44
Chilly
So I'm really not mad if you do take one of the Philadelphia guys. In terms of the line stuff, I think I'd rather play Jamison Williams because...
00:37:54
Chilly
The Giants give up a lot of deep ball plays. We know that's where Jamison Williams lives. So I would probably take him over Amon Ross St. Brown and just kind of pray for the bomb there.
00:38:11
Chilly
Again, here, just kind of taking a look at some of these other guys. Apparently, you have the machine that is Michael Wilson.
00:38:18
Chilly
He's extremely cheap.
00:38:20
Sully Shaheed
The machine, Michael Wilson. Yes.
00:38:23
Chilly
Yeah, so I guess the real question is, you know Cincinnati shuts down number one wide receivers.
00:38:24
Sully Shaheed
Yes.
00:38:32
Chilly
Is that Diggs?
00:38:33
Sully Shaheed
They do.
00:38:35
Chilly
Or is Diggs just going to be in the slot? Against Cincinnati, you're playing Hunter Henry. Like, we don't even have to get into that.
00:38:46
Sully Shaheed
Yes.
00:38:49
Sully Shaheed
Yes.
00:38:49
Chilly
But, like, Stephon Diggs is very intriguing in that matchup because, like, is his name Turner? don't remember the Cincinnati corner. That's really good.
00:38:59
Chilly
Right.
00:39:01
Sully Shaheed
I don't do defensive matchups, man. But I know that he just nukes true number one receivers. But that's the funny thing about the Patriots. They don't have a true number one receiver. They got everybody.
00:39:10
Chilly
Right.
00:39:11
Sully Shaheed
It could be Diggs. It could be Booty. It could be Kyle Williams. It could be anybody. So one of them is getting shut down. So if you would like to spin the roulette wheel and see which Patriots receiver is going to get wet that game, someone is.
00:39:26
Sully Shaheed
It's not their number
00:39:26
Chilly
So, does Christian Gonzalez take out Tee Higgins then?
00:39:32
Sully Shaheed
You would think, I mean, that's the natural matchup, right? So, like, what is it?
00:39:38
Chilly
And then...
00:39:38
Sully Shaheed
Ilyasova, or whatever the fuck his name is.
00:39:38
Chilly
Nope.
00:39:43
Chilly
And then, because nobody's playing Yoshi Boss.
00:39:46
Sully Shaheed
Yoshivas! Yoshivas, Yoshivas, yes.
00:39:48
Chilly
Correct. He is at like 3% ownership at 4,100.
00:39:53
Chilly
And it just kind And that, like, I would play him in my Patriots runbacks.
00:39:53
Sully Shaheed
That is so sexy.
00:39:59
Chilly
Because if you play him with a shitty Patriots wide receiver, you could play Jonathan Taylor.
00:40:05
Sully Shaheed
Hear me out. That could give you the money for Jonathan Taylor.
00:40:12
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. Yoshivas. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's that's that's the guy. That's that's the guy.
00:40:17
Chilly
Yeah, so, like I said...
00:40:18
Sully Shaheed
Again, I don't feed too much of QB, or I'm sorry, cornerback, wide receiver matchups, but Christian Gonzalez is a beast. He only got mopped up by Drake London, and that's his only bad game, so I'll forgive him for that.
00:40:30
Sully Shaheed
But, yeah, Tiagas is going to struggle a little bit. But you know Joe Flacco.
00:40:37
Sully Shaheed
If he's your number one, you're going to get like 15 targets. So, mean, there's that. But it could be Yoshibas. So, I'm perfectly fine slotting in Yoshibas this week.
00:40:45
Chilly
Is it a little bit surprising? I know Philadelphia is a good defense, but is it a little bit surprising that the Cowboys guys aren't getting a little more steam here?
00:40:54
Sully Shaheed
I think it's going to be the price. I mean, like, because remember, the Eagles guys are under-owned or under-owned or owned because of their price, because they have been George Pickens is fourth in fantasy or fourth in fantasy points per game.
00:41:10
Sully Shaheed
And you know who CeeDee Lamb is already. So it's like they've been performing. So they justify the price. So they're expensive compared to the Eagles guys. So I get it. But at the same time, like you have to be fully invested in this game.
00:41:25
Sully Shaheed
to say, I'm going to pay these price tags, but that literally, you put a CD lamb in your lineup, you put a, you know, if you put the Lions guy in with a, a, a,
00:41:42
Chilly
Yeah, and then you kind of already mentioned some of these guys up at the top. I mean, since you didn't mention them, I mean, I guess that would make you interested in some Chris Alave then, right?
00:41:52
Sully Shaheed
I am very interested
00:41:57
Chilly
Hey, what if I told you that for the price of $3,200 DraftKings dollars, you can get a number one wide receiver?
00:42:05
Sully Shaheed
You have my interest. Now you have my attention.
00:42:09
Sully Shaheed
Go on.
00:42:11
Chilly
Adonai Mitchell.
00:42:13
Sully Shaheed
Oh, my God. I need someone who's actually good at the game of football.
00:42:19
Chilly
He's their number one wide receiver and he's the most expensive Jets wide receiver.
00:42:24
Sully Shaheed
You know, the funny thing is about Adonai Mitchell is that if you're a tape bro, the dude is open all the time. I mean, like, he is a crisp route runner. He's fast as shit.
00:42:38
Sully Shaheed
But the thing is, he can't catch in NFL football. And when he does, hold on to it.
00:42:45
Chilly
He does the 6-7. 6-7.
00:42:50
Sully Shaheed
Six, seven.
00:42:52
Sully Shaheed
Oh, my God. Let that be the only topic that's mentioned here on the DFS Deli, please. But you bring up a great point. I mean, you bring up a great point.
00:42:58
Chilly
And then
00:43:02
Chilly
one other guy going to throw out there that's going to come with no ownership is going to be Roma Dunzey. I don't believe in this Pittsburgh defense, and they're not great against wide receivers. They're actually behind only Dallas, Tampa, and the Giants in terms of fantasy goodness. So I'm kind of interested in Roma Doomsday.
00:43:29
Sully Shaheed
I like it. I like it. Man, now you're going to convince me to play Adonai Mitchell, aren't you?
00:43:38
Sully Shaheed
I'm going to do it. You I'm going to do it.
00:43:41
Chilly
I mean, I mean, to Rod Taylor can get him the ball.
00:43:45
Sully Shaheed
That's what saying. Like, at least we got Teron Taylor now. Like, at least there's that.
00:43:48
Chilly
Right. And like, honestly, he could catch, he probably would have had a touchdown last week.
00:43:56
Chilly
If he could, if he could, you know.
00:43:57
Sully Shaheed
I know. That's the thing. He's always open. He just can't catch NFL football.
00:44:05
Chilly
Or when he does get a touchdown, he drops it at the one.
00:44:09
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, guess we should not bring that up, huh?
00:44:13
Chilly
He do do that.
00:44:15
Sully Shaheed
He do be doing that.
Tight End Strategies and Picks
00:44:17
Sully Shaheed
tight ends $6,800 Trey McBride. My God, just, it's one of those guys where you just find the money to pay him every week. Trey McBride has just been absolutely incredible.
00:44:28
Sully Shaheed
FanDuel really spiked him. I mean, he's 8,700. So it's like, you want to play this guy?
00:44:33
Chilly
Ooh.
00:44:35
Sully Shaheed
Fucking good luck. At a cheaper price tag, of course, we already mentioned Hunter Henry who gets $100. The nut matchup with Cincinnati. The second nut matchup is Trey McBride against the Jaguars because they can't defend the tight end.
00:44:48
Sully Shaheed
And the third-ish, fourth-ish nut matchup, old man Travis Kelsey against the Colts.
00:44:57
Chilly
Yeah, so, I mean, the Colts are actually second worst in the league against tight ends. This may be a Travis Kelsey game. This just screams five receptions for 50 yards, right, for Travis?
00:45:07
Sully Shaheed
I know.
00:45:10
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah. Yeah, 100%. Yes. Mm-hmm.
00:45:12
Chilly
At 5K, he gets you 10 points, he doubles it. You walk away, you're probably pretty happy about it. On FanDuel, it's way more of a decision with Trey McBride, obviously.
00:45:26
Chilly
On DraftKings, you could probably just put Trey McBride in there.
00:45:31
Chilly
already mentioned them. The Bengals are on the slate. That means Hunter Henry's in play. You could probably get Frisky and play like Austin Hooper. They could give up touchdown to Austin Hooper.
00:45:42
Chilly
The Cincinnati is so bad.
00:45:43
Sully Shaheed
That is a little too frisky for me, my friend.
00:45:44
Chilly
Yeah. They are so bad against tight ends. So, yeah, again here, just taking a look at it on the surface. If I could trust the fact that Colson Loveland was, like, the number one guy there for Chicago, Pittsburgh is bad against tight ends, too.
00:46:04
Chilly
But you just can't.
00:46:05
Sully Shaheed
Yeah. But with Cole Komet, you know, yeah.
00:46:07
Chilly
Yeah, what Cole can make, you just don't know. Yeah, I mean, again, Nobody's playing Tyler Warren for whatever reason.
00:46:17
Sully Shaheed
Because the Chiefs is the Chiefs. Everyone's scared of the Chiefs, the big, bad Chiefs. Now, at 5,500, I can find room for Tyler Warren. But another name that's interesting, Seattle, A.J. Barner with his 10 targets last week.
00:46:34
Chilly
It's not bad. It's really not...
00:46:35
Sully Shaheed
Could do worse than 3,300.
00:46:37
Chilly
You certainly could do worse. I mean, if you really want to get ugly at tight end,
00:46:46
Chilly
I don't know who the Titans starting tight end is nowadays. I don't know if it's Gunner or Chig.
00:46:53
Sully Shaheed
It's Gunner Helm, baby!
00:46:55
Chilly
But Seattle is not good against tight ends either.
00:47:01
Sully Shaheed
Hey, listen, as a man who's won one American dollars off Gunner Helm before, you could do worse than playing Gunner Helm, okay?
00:47:11
Chilly
Yeah.
00:47:12
Sully Shaheed
I'm here for all the Gunner Helm takes.
00:47:15
Chilly
I would be surprised if I feel like Brock Bauer's ownership, I don't feel like it gets like they got him at 13%. I don't feel like it's going to be that high.
00:47:28
Sully Shaheed
Well, it's his name and it's $800 cheaper than Trey McBride. Like if I'm decided between like Brock Bowers and someone else, I'm just going to find the 800 to go up to Trey McBride.
00:47:37
Chilly
Yeah, you might as well.
00:47:39
Sully Shaheed
You might as well, right?
00:47:41
Chilly
Yeah, it's that. Which should do?
00:47:44
Sully Shaheed
yeah, I think his ownership, I think his ownership percentage a tad bit high. I think that gets depressed as the week goes along.
00:47:50
Chilly
I feel like which should The Browns tight ends are probably little bit more in play than they normally are.
00:47:55
Sully Shaheed
I can
00:47:57
Chilly
So, yeah. Again here, yes.
00:48:00
Sully Shaheed
get behind that.
00:48:03
Chilly
You got the money on DraftKings.
00:48:04
Sully Shaheed
But hey, listen.
00:48:05
Sully Shaheed
Go ahead.
00:48:06
Chilly
On DraftKings, I think you just find the money for Trey McBride kind of just move on.
00:48:11
Sully Shaheed
But listen, hear me out. Hear me out. Kurt Cousins is back. And last time we saw him in a full game, Kyle Pitts, nine for 58. You could do worse.
00:48:23
Chilly
He is like, he does have some ownership on him, though. I can believe that.
00:48:28
Sully Shaheed
I know, but he's still cheap. I mean, the man's only scored one NFL touchdown this year. So at least for a four because of Kirk Cousins being in the game, I would say that's a DraftKings only play too. Don't play Kyle Pitts on FanDuel. That's ridiculous.
00:48:44
Sully Shaheed
Don't do that. But on DraftKings, yeah. Yeah.
00:48:48
Chilly
Yeah. Again here, I think tight end, you just kind of play what fits. I mean, with Terod there, Mason Taylor probably won't hurt you.
00:49:00
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, the QB change does help Mason Taylor a little bit. That's true. Again, I think we're just looking – those are like floor plays that we're saying, but like as far as ceiling, no one's going to be higher than Trey McBride.
00:49:11
Sully Shaheed
So just find the money for Trey McBride.
00:49:11
Chilly
No, not even... It's not even close. Yeah.
00:49:15
Sully Shaheed
Like just – we told you last week to do it. Do it again this week. FanDuel, yes, you have a decision to make, but man, double tight end, double tight end week.
00:49:23
Chilly
I mean, his...
00:49:28
Chilly
I don't think you I don't think you need to.
00:49:31
Sully Shaheed
I mean, like, so look at the receivers in Trey McBride's price range. It's like a would you rather play Trey McBride or this receiver. And if the answer is Trey McBride, then run a double tight end set. I don't care.
00:49:45
Chilly
You could. You certainly could. wouldn't be opposed.
00:49:48
Sully Shaheed
don't care.
00:49:49
Chilly
I guess I wouldn't be opposed to it now that you kind of phrase it like that.
00:49:53
Sully Shaheed
Because, I mean, Trey McBride, if that wasn't a TE and was a WR, he'd be 7,500 on DraftKings.
00:50:01
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, and we have watched Jacksonville absolutely get nuked by another good tight end.
00:50:01
Sully Shaheed
Right? Yeah.
00:50:09
Sully Shaheed
Exactly. Exactly.
00:50:11
Chilly
Yeah.
00:50:12
Sully Shaheed
Yes.
00:50:12
Chilly
Brock Bowers had not one, not two, but three of them things.
Defensive Team Analysis for Week 12
00:50:16
Chilly
Coming off an injury.
00:50:19
Sully Shaheed
Right? Just saying. Defenses will slap out of the park real quick. Ownership-wise, we've got the Packers, Browns, and Saints leading the way.
00:50:31
Sully Shaheed
mean, $2,500 Saints does sound pretty, pretty, pretty good, to be honest. But, yeah, I would say if you can find money for the Ravens, even though they're kind of sus, $3,900 is a lot to pay. But it is against Tyrod Taylor.
00:50:49
Sully Shaheed
It is against the Jets. It's more so the Jets than Tyrod Taylor. But Tyrod Taylor is in the revenge game. So might be a little pep in the step. A little pep in the step. Maybe a little bad.
00:51:10
Chilly
Yeah, 3,500, I don't think...
00:51:13
Chilly
And nobody's playing the Raiders. And the Raiders are at home.
00:51:19
Sully Shaheed
They're in the Roomba!
00:51:19
Chilly
So... They are in the Roomba. I mean, the Browns defense is 2,900. I know it's going to be the chalk. You could do worse things than join the group.
00:51:29
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:51:32
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I mean, like, you know you're going to get, what, four and a half sacks from Myles Garrett this game?
00:51:39
Chilly
You're going to get something. You're
00:51:42
Sully Shaheed
Oh, yeah, Geno's going to hit. He's going to get hit a lot. that could lead to forced fumbles. That could lead to a costly pick. I mean, the Browns did have a defensive touchdown last week against Lamar and the Ravens. So $2,900 Browns defense, I could see why they're pretty heavily owned.
00:51:58
Sully Shaheed
But then other than that, yeah, whatever fits, right? I mean, we're just talking defense.
00:52:02
Chilly
get... Whatever fit.
00:52:03
Sully Shaheed
We're talking defense.
00:52:03
Chilly
Yeah... Whatever fits, like you said. don't think I'd get up to 4K for Seattle's defense against Cam Ward, but I get it if you can.
00:52:15
Sully Shaheed
I mean, it is Cam Ward, bro.
00:52:18
Chilly
They're so bad. They're just bad.
00:52:21
Sully Shaheed
They got a lot of work. They got a lot of work to do.
00:52:26
Sully Shaheed
So, so bad. Well, chill, we did it. We kept it under an hour. and you, Baker, we appreciate you, you know, putting in your takes from home. I did, or not from home, on the road, which he's still traveling, by the way. We mentioned all of his takes, chill, don't worry. But we do have his picks for...
00:52:47
Sully Shaheed
The DFS Deli Parlay. And this week, chill, this week is going to hit. Okay. So we take that hot 10, we put it in, and we go from there, man.
00:52:59
Sully Shaheed
So I need, before we get you that hot 10, six pack from the Deli Parlay.
00:53:01
Chilly
Thank you.
00:53:06
Sully Shaheed
I need you to make sure you hit that like subscribe first because you got to be joined to the DFS Deli to get the hotness of what we're about to bring this week.
00:53:16
Sully Shaheed
Last week, This week, we're cooking. So I'll get out the way. Baker's two takes are the Hurt Business being pushed in. And Hunter Henry.
00:53:28
Sully Shaheed
So those are going be two picks for the parlay. Chill. Give me one for the parlay.
00:53:33
Chilly
Yeah, I mean, think they get back to form here. Give me Mr. JSN for the parlay.
00:53:43
Sully Shaheed
JSN for the parlay. I'm going to go ahead and just, you know, I'm going to cop out and take the chalk. All right. Well, this is kind of the chalk, but I did the same thing last week and he got hurt.
00:53:53
Sully Shaheed
So now I'm scared. You know what? Because I believe it takes so much. Kent Walker, the third is going get in the box this week.
00:54:04
Sully Shaheed
So give me Give K9.
00:54:08
Chilly
Nice.
00:54:10
Sully Shaheed
Who else is getting in the box alongside the Hurt Business and Hunter Henry, JSN, and Ken Walker III? Who else splashes the box this week?
00:54:22
Chilly
Yeah, I don't think I need to get weird here with my takes. It's kind of how I'm treating the slate. Just give me Gibbs. Give me Jameer Gibbs.
00:54:32
Sully Shaheed
Okay, okay. Well, you know what?
00:54:33
Chilly
I
00:54:33
Sully Shaheed
We'll stay in the same game, Chill. Actually, you know what? You know what? Maybe not, because I want to say JMO here. I want to give you J-Mo. I think J-Mo is a solid player. I think he's going have a great game.
00:54:48
Sully Shaheed
Let's get little weird. Let's get little weird with it. You want weird with it? Let's get little weird with it.
00:54:53
Chilly
don't care.
00:54:55
Sully Shaheed
I mean, because it's going to hit. So it doesn't really matter.
00:54:56
Chilly
Facts.
00:54:58
Sully Shaheed
It's going to hit. You know what?
00:55:03
Sully Shaheed
Let him off the bus, Joe.
00:55:05
Sully Shaheed
Let him off the bus for one week.
00:55:07
Chilly
Are you talking about old Alvin Kamara?
00:55:08
Sully Shaheed
Give me Alvin Kamara. Give me Alvin Kamara. Give me Alvin Kamara.
00:55:12
Chilly
He's trying to fight his way off the bus.
00:55:15
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, man. So we got the Hurt Business, Hunter Henry, KW3, AK-41, JSN, and Sonic of Sonic & Knuckles for the six-legger.
00:55:32
Sully Shaheed
That's the hot 10. We'll let you know that pays out soon enough because it's only Wednesday. Promes ain't out yet. Who's your favorite stack going into the week early on a Wednesday?
00:55:42
Chilly
I didn't see that Baker texted the group. We mentioned most of his takes. Baker for the brand does like Kirk Cousins.
00:55:47
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:55:51
Sully Shaheed
Of course.
00:55:52
Chilly
I
00:55:52
Sully Shaheed
Whatever. don't know.
00:55:55
Chilly
don't know. He put in Joe Flacco.
00:55:58
Chilly
don't really get the move. He said Flacco over Burrow. Sure.
00:56:03
Sully Shaheed
We're all full participant practice today, though.
00:56:06
Chilly
Yeah, so we did, so we mentioned God of the Sun, CD, Brown, Slim, Higgins, Yoshibas, Kelsey, Hunter Henry. He likes the Raiders defense and the Saints.
00:56:19
Chilly
My favorite stack, again, we'll stick with that. I do like the Seahawks stuff this week. I like the Lions stuff second. And then in terms of like,
00:56:32
Chilly
trying to think of kind of more on the and honestly like the Patriots like let's not get weird here Patriots
00:56:41
Sully Shaheed
Sure. I'm with it. I'm with it. Baker's vote call is Jalen Hurts will have seven total touchdowns.
00:56:49
Chilly
I guess I'm playing Jalen Hurts
00:56:51
Sully Shaheed
I guess if you're on the Baker brand here the DFS Deli, you should play Jalen Hurts apparently. That's your guy. Okay.
00:56:59
Chilly
He says the Bull take Cowboys and Eagles score in the 90s.
00:56:59
Sully Shaheed
I'm sorry, man.
00:57:07
Chilly
Is it because...
00:57:14
Sully Shaheed
I can't.
00:57:15
Sully Shaheed
I can't give out that.
00:57:17
Chilly
Let's be real. He owes this game a lot.
00:57:20
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:57:21
Chilly
The game in general. So I get why he's so bold on it.
00:57:22
Sully Shaheed
Yeah.
00:57:26
Sully Shaheed
Hey, listen.
00:57:28
Chilly
It's fair.
00:57:28
Sully Shaheed
Hey, my first big hit DFS, guess what? Cowboys-Eagles. So I get it. get it. Back in the old Amari Cooper days, winning old $10,000 off that game.
00:57:39
Sully Shaheed
So I get it.
00:57:39
Chilly
Dude, Amari Cooper.
00:57:41
Sully Shaheed
get it. the old Amari Cooper days when I realized that I'm pretty, pretty decent at DFS. But, yeah, I think on the high end, like you said, I do like the Lions stuff. If I go off J-Mo Gibbs, I think you got a solid start wherever you want to lead off with that. And, again, if you want jam in guys like JT this week, McBride, same level, you can do worse than running Tyler Shuck, AK-41, and Chris Alave.
00:58:11
Sully Shaheed
And
Bold Predictions for Week 12
00:58:11
Sully Shaheed
then run it back with Kyle Pitts and then load the hell up. Just load the hell
00:58:15
Chilly
Yeah.
00:58:17
Sully Shaheed
So, and like I said, bold call for me, I think. And Zach's going to text me immediately after he listens to this podcast. Zach, I know you're going make it to the end like you always freaking do.
00:58:29
Sully Shaheed
But Alvin Kamara, 100 total yards and two touchdowns.
00:58:36
Sully Shaheed
That's the bold call for me. Good bold.
00:58:40
Chilly
Yeah, for me, again here, I'll just stick with the theme of the show. Sam Darnold, instead of throwing four picks, will just have four touchdowns. I think Sam Darnold goes for 304.
00:58:50
Sully Shaheed
Okay.
00:58:54
Chilly
To go along with that, I think JSN will be the wide receiver you need, and that's where I'm going to leave my bold take.
00:59:03
Sully Shaheed
Yeah, I like it, man. Like said, if you've enjoyed the show, don't forget to hit that like and subscribe on the way out. We have been your peeps at the DFS deli for a baker who's still traveling on the road for chill. I've been your host, Salih Ali Shahid. We're going to go ahead and close up the shop. And as always, we're going to see you all at the top.
00:59:22
Sully Shaheed
Thanks for listening. Oh, and remember, if none of these hit, blame Geno Smith.
