What's happening, people? Um, we are live, and this is the last stream before Saturday. We're going to be, one of our friends is getting married, so we're going out for a little, little weekend. Um, but on Saturday night, I will be there, uh, for sure and, uh, making sure, answering all your questions. But we appreciate you guys for being here with us. Um, you know, I, I put it in a clip for the Flock League, which hasn't been seen yet, but I was, I was aware that my emotions would drastically swing depending on if Bucky Irving was practicing or not. But it, there's a difference between being aware of how it might infect, affect you, and then when it actually happens. And I, I, I'll be honest with you guys, this season cannot be over quicker for me. It cannot be over quicker. But at this point, I have to turn my attention towards being excited to just help you all because that's really, that's really the only thing I can be excited about.
It's funny because in all the other leagues I'm in, I feel like I'm doing pretty well. Like, our two home leagues, I'm, my teams are great, and I'm definitely making the playoffs, have a chance to win it all. But because I'm not doing well in the Flock League, it just makes things difficult. Yeah, it's not ideal when no one cares about your home league, but then, however many people are watching these videos are only going to praise you when you're up. >> Yeah. >> And then kick you when you're down. >> Yeah. >> Just remember that. Just remember when, um, >> clock that. >> Go, go, go look at the comments, the first half of the season. "Wow, Zach has a really good team." "You know, Zach is this." Then also go look at the comments in the beginning of the season of me saying, "Wow, Pedaki is pretty bad." Now it's like, Zach, your >> Yeah. >> And now is also like, Baki. I'm rooting for Badaki. >> Yeah. We're switching sides here, ladies and gentlemen. >> I know these people have no loyalties. Their loyalties is to whoever wins.
Um, okay. Appreciate y'all for being here with us. We are going to answer as many questions as we possibly can. It'll probably be a shorter one today. There's not as many questions as there normally is. Uh, but you can prioritize your questions by submitting them through the Flock Fantasy website. Uh, super chats will be answered, um, later. So, uh, I'll put that in the chat now. Super chats will be answered after site questions. So hang around. Uh, we got to get through those first. And yeah, I mean, I, you know, you guys, you guys are obviously our supporters. We love y'all. Y'all are always showing love here. Um, but yeah, oftentimes like the 5% can be louder than the 95%, if that makes sense. You know, because the 5% can be just so petty. You know, like they'll, I'm literally getting DMs on my personal social media accounts of people like talking to me about Jaden Daniels and like making fun of me. I'm like, can you leave me alone? Like, I am sad already. Uh, okay. Let's go. Uh, Jeff Randy here first.
>> Jeff Randy, appreciate you, man. We are sending away Judkins and Courtland Sutton for Judkin, Courtland Sutton, and Lovelin for Jonathan Taylor. 12 team start seven. Um, my initial thought is yes. I'm not a big believer, not that I'm not a big believer in Lovelin, but like, I think that breakout game, I don't think that's going to be >> KT is back. It makes things difficult for sure. >> Yeah, I don't think that's going to be something that's going to be, um, consistent. You have Genin and Sam Leapora, and you're sending away, um, Lovelin. I guess the question is, what is your wide receiver room going to look like? You have Jackson Smith and Jigba, Rasheed Rice, and Michael Pitman. So I think that is enough for you to go ahead and up tier at the running back position there with Jonathan Taylor. >> Yeah. Um, I'm, I'm in agreement with you. I'll take JT. I'll pay that price. >> Yeah. Daniel, seems weird, but I prefer Musgrave over Love. Um, okay. So quarterback is Jackson, Kyle. If, um, Swift doesn't play, which I think he might be playing, Jir Gibbs, Michael Pimman, and Mika, Luke Musgrave, and Tettoa. Look, I think I'm still going to go probably Lovelin there. I need to see how they're going to utilize Musgrave in this game first before, um, >> KT's playing though. Yeah, I think I still lean Lovelin if KTH's playing, but it makes things harder. >> It does. It does make things harder. Um, I just, once again, I just can't trust what Luke is going to do. And I do like Luke as a talent. I thought he was going to be the guy. I was wrong on, I was wrong on Tucker Craft just because of the way they utilized him in that, in, you know, the second half of that first year or second year, if I'm not mistaken. Mhm. >> Um, and then they was like, "No, it's going to be Luke, uh, Tucker Craft." So, anyways. >> Yeah. >> I'll go with you with Luke Musgrave there. Um, >> uh, No, I'm going to go Lovelin. I'm going to go Lovelin. Sorry. >> Okay. Okay, that's fine. >> Just, we, we've seen more, more consistent, well, not not consistency, but we've seen the upside already. We don't know if that's there with Luca if they're going to use him that way. So, >> yeah. Yeah. >> Sorry. >> Um, all right. Next one here. It is sending away Lamar Jackson, Warren, and Brian Thomas for Caleb, Rico, Jameson, Quinton.
>> Rico is is awesome. Um, was trying to trade for him with Thomas in the Flock League for, for weeks. Um, but I was trying to get him cheap, and that's my bad. Uh, you're down tiering from Lamar, but you're getting Rico. You're sending Thomas away for usable names. Kind of indifferent on this, to be honest. >> Yeah, I'll take the Caleb side. Um, because, yeah, you got to down tier. I think there might be better quarterbacks than Caleb on the waiver wires right now. I, if that is possible, like I still like Jordan Love, JJ McCarthy long term. Maybe a Jared Goff if they're available. Um, but getting Rico, I think is pretty significant over Warren. And I know Jameson has been boom-bust, but like, so has Brian Thomas. So, >> might as well get some more depth there for your wide receiver room rather than kind of just going, you know, riding the hand with Brian Thomas there. So, hopefully that helps. >> Yeah. Um, agree with you there. Steve says, "Uh, should I pick up Flaco off waivers in stash for a playoff run in second place? I have Knicks and May." If you have Knicks and May, there's no point. It's more Flaco. I, I'm more interested for people who don't have an answer at quarterback and you have, you have one with Drake May pretty easily there. So, uh, you know, if you were someone like me who lost Jaden Daniels, yes. Um, you know, if even if you had just Baker Mayfield or something, I'd be interested, but not when you have two great names like May and Knicks. I think you shouldn't be keeping three quarterbacks. And also important to remember that Joe Burrow might be back in December anyway. So, >> yeah, >> keep that in mind. I wonder if they will bring him back even if they are officially out of, out of the playoffs. Like, if they have a, still have a chance to make the playoffs, I think they might bring him back, but like, if they're already eliminated by then, I think they'll hold him out.
>> Um, CTE sending away Derrick Henry for Judkins. Um, I think this is a pretty fair deal. Um, >> poison here. >> I really don't have a strong opinion on it. Um, I do think Henry's going to be much better second half of the season than he was. >> I think Judkins, you'll see more of what you've seen where, you know, you're getting anywhere from 10 to 20 points in any single game. Judkins' schedule is pretty great. Gets the Jets, Ravens, Raiders, Niners, Titans, Bears. That's awesome. I don't have a strong opinion on this. It's really pick your poison, but it's fair value. >> Yeah. Yeah, I would, I would agree there. Um, Sam I am bone nicks this week. Um, uh, at the running back position, you have Saquon, Bachley, and I guess if Trey, if Randre Stevenson doesn't play, it's going to be Trayvon Henderson. And if not, think I still might go Trayvon Henderson over. No, I'll probably go Tyrone actually. Let me just triple check there because I definitely moved these guys a little bit. Yeah. So, it's going to be Trayvon Henderson if he doesn't play. >> Then for me is Tyrone if Raandre Stevenson doesn't play. >> Yeah. Um, I don't have Henderson >> regardless there. Just trust Tyrone too much. >> Yeah. At receiver, AJ Brown should be in that lineup for sure. Um, and then at the flex spot, >> I'm gonna play Romeo. >> Yeah, >> says I'm buying, right? And then, uh, >> yeah, that's where I want to go. >> Sports says, "I'm the guy who's 0 and 9 from yesterday's stream. Here's my team. Need help getting my first W."
>> Come on. Hey, good luck this week. Anything can happen. >> Lost Jaden Daniels this week. At running back, yeah, Dobbins. Harvey is interesting. I probably am going to go Dobbins here. Then at wide receiver, I would go McMillan of the options. >> Agreed. >> Tight end, we're going to play KD here. >> And then at flex, it's Henderson. If there's no Stevenson, if there is Stevenson, Jameson. >> Yeah. Uh, I mean, upside. Honestly, you have nothing to lose here. Jameson against the Commanders or, yeah, look, I guess you just go with the upside. It's not ideal, unfortunately. It's just not ideal. >> Yeah. Um, I prefer Henderson if there's no Stevenson for sure. >> Yeah, I would agree there. Appreciate you, Nardone. >> Nardone. >> Yeah. So, should I make trade/move wide receiver 4? Need help, boys.
>> Sorry. Can I just quickly say, like, I'm shocked that that team had no wins, by the way? >> Yeah, it's, it's an interesting team. >> That team he just submitted is not a bad team. >> It's just unlucky. >> Yeah. Anyway, >> I mean, he didn't have George KD and, and for a while, you know, I don't know if they made any trades. Um, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Nardon here is starting at the quarterback position. Well, the lineup here looks like JJ, Judkins, Achant, Devont, Alve, Smith or Chris Lave, Devonta, Trey McBride, and Kyle Manungai. >> They're currently starting over Genty. I mean, I'll put Genty in there unless Monkey is starting on his own. >> Yeah, there's no one. And other than that, I think that's pretty straightforward. You should put Genty at your RB2 spot, by the way, because he's playing on Thursday Night Football. Um, so yeah, that's what I would do. >> Um, again, you know, if there's no Manongai, then I have no problem sitting Genty there, but assuming Manong, or if there's no Swift. But, um, if Swift is playing, then I would start Genty and Judkins for sure. Yeah. Springfield J Springfield. Um, Shakira, Shakira, Watson, Ferguson for Trey Tucker and CD Lamb. One quarterback, told team start eight. So depth is a little bit important here.
>> I mean, >> I think I'll just, I'll take CD Lamb actually. >> I'll easily take CD Lamb here. >> There's no one there worth holding on the other side. >> G Stack he says, "Let me know if this makes sense. Moving off of more DJ, more Dalton Kincaid for Tetaroa." Um,
>> I am okay with this depending on your tight end. You have Coulson Lovelin. I think I would still rather keep with Dalton Kincaid. >> Mhm. Um, but like, I, I would say this is technically a fair trade. >> Okay. I want McMillan pretty easily there. Um, Kincaid, you know, is fine. He's been pretty good. He's a touchdown threat for sure, but, um, there's plenty of games where they just don't even need him. Um, and that's concerning to me. So, I'll go McMillan. Okay, that's fair. Nate Dog says, "Three and six, gain a by week. Have Jacobs, Rice, Bua. So you're sending away Dak and Lamb for Judkins and Marvin."
>> Yeah, right. Um, mind this, if you have a good quarterback. You have Dart. If you do this at three and six, it's probably a move you should make. >> Yeah, cuz you probably need to win here. Now, long-term, I'm still not wanting Marvin. I know we saw that really nice game against the Cowboys, but it was against the Cowboys. Juckens back off an injury. >> Still would rather have CD possible. >> Trade Marvin before the playoffs, but I'm fine to do it now. You know what I mean? >> Yeah. Yeah, that's fair. >> Yeah. Um, all right. Loco says, "Need an optional flex wide receiver long-term but also for an upcoming buy. McConi, which one for one running back or wide receiver? Need an optional flex wide receiver long term, but also for an upcoming buy. McConi, which one for one running back for wide receiver?" So, I think they want us. They've submitted a couple players here. Uh, Manongai, Benson, Jameson, Flowers, and Shahed.
>> Um, >> yeah, if, look, I, if you can get Z Flowers for either of those running backs, sure. >> Yeah, I'll be okay with that. >> But I don't think I'd want Shahed for any of those running backs. I prefer the running backs. And Jameson, I don't know. I have a love-hate relationship with Jameson. I don't feel like I'd trade either of those guys for Jameson. Is that crazy, man? It's not crazy. But I think I would do it with Trey Benson if I am an above 500 team. I think they're going to really want him and utilize him when he's back. >> Um, >> you want to keep Benson then? >> Yeah, I would rather keep Benson over Jameson. But Kamonga, I'm happy to trade away because I don't think I think they still want to utilize Swift. >> Yeah, I agree. >> So, um, that's probably the best way to put it into words. >> Yeah. Um, so hopefully that's helpful. If those are the players that you're looking out, looking to go get, I mean, alternatively, if you want a receiver for Kongai, I would say you could look at a Shakir. Doesn't seem crazy. Pawol off an injury. Um, >> yeah, Dobs, I think is interesting. I don't, yeah, I mean, you can take a chance with some lower names like Josh Downs >> maybe. >> Um, you know, >> hope that's helpful. So >> appreciate you. >> Sebie Seb is saying, "Drop Debo for Piol." Yes, I would. "Addun for DJ." No, I wouldn't do that. "Add Addison." What did you think about the trade in the Flock League today? The one involving Adun.
>> Yeah, it's interesting. I think it's a little bit, uh, Are you talking about both trades involving him or like this one specific? >> I'm talking about the first trade involving Rome. >> Yeah, that one just kind of felt like a little bit of canoodle. >> You think so? >> In what direction though? Actually, you're right. It's not a quudoodle because I thought, I don't know who I thought the person that was getting Rome was the opposite, if that makes sense, without giving too much away. Right. That's what I, That's what I initially thought. >> Yeah. I, I was like very confidently like, "I want the Rome side of that." >> Yeah. But I thought the other person was getting Rome. >> Yeah. So I thought like, that just makes this team too good. Like, it's just obvious what's happening here. >> Yeah. No, it's interesting though. And then what about the second one? >> The second one, I would want Rome still. >> Yeah, fair. All right. Um, Sebie Seb says, "Yeah, we, we, we've answered that. Um, yeah, I want Adun over DJ. Still want Addison. Sure, if you can drop someone, but you can't, so probably can't. Um, starting Jaylen Hurts, Taylor, Jacobs, Eggbuka, Wale. I'd still start Rome over Wandale, although I love Wandale.
>> And then in the flex spot, >> I don't think you can set Judkins. Yeah. >> So, we'll probably set Wandell there. >> But if you feel safer with Wandell, no problem. >> I mean, this is a nine team start. Maybe you can drop Wale and pick up Addison. Um, I don't know how big of a difference that actually is. I don't think there is a difference. I might prefer Wale, but definitely drop Debo for one of those names that you mentioned. >> Yeah, you definitely can. Um, Mark says, "Been trying to get a running back too. No dice. Next best trade worth. You're sending away T. Higgins and Jake Ferguson for Brock Bowers." Well, it's not helping your situation. You already have Jake Ferguson. You're sending away a two for one for a two for one when you still have a decent tight end. I would just keep Jake Ferguson and T. Higgins personally. I don't know how you feel about that. >> Like, if you need depth here and T. Higgins and somebody that maybe you're starting 12 team start seven looking at your team here. >> You have, um, Why is it not coming up for me? >> He has Rice, Sutton, Jefferson, and Monra. I think he can go get Bowers if he wants. >> Yeah, you can go get Bowers then. >> So, yeah, that makes sense. Happy for you to do that. You're not even starting T. Higgins in this scenario. So >> nope. >> Sval says, "I'm hurting with bye-week for the Cowboys and Bengals. Are there any waiver recommendations? Um,
>> I mean, yeah, I think there could be some, but >> right now, these are your best options. Well, yeah. Look, you got a lot of guys on buy. Well, to be honest with you, we don't know what is on your waiver wire, but I will tell you some decent, like, desperation plays this week. So, for example, if I doubt Manonga is out there, but if a Devin Singletary, Tyrone Tracy are out there, it could be worse. Um, a Harvey Kamar, um, Amari D Marcado, there are worse plays. I am genuinely thinking about. Actually, I don't want to talk about that in the Flock League. Um, wide receivers, Parker Washington, if he was dropped, there are worse plays than Parker Washington. Trey Tucker on Friday night. Um, Demario Douglas, I've, I've looked at once or twice with the injury to mate. >> Booty, booty. >> Booty, booty. But yeah, honestly, I think tight ends are decent option this week, which you have, you've already got some tight ends in there. So, yeah. Appreciate you, man. All right, let's see who's next here. KR10 sending away Puka Niku and AJ Brown and this is Dynasty getting away, getting back AMA Achan in a '27 first. I think this is enough for me. AJ Brown feels like >> it's impossible dynasty for sure. >> That just, that feels like a throw-in right there. So you're getting, you're sending away. >> Yeah, exactly. I think AMA's, I think AMA and Achan is good enough for a Puka return in Dynasty, and you're getting a first from how I'm seeing this for AJ Brown. So, yeah, >> I would be okay with a trade like this. >> Yeah, I'd be fine with it. It's, it's hard, but it's a Stark 10. As long as that's not a late '27 first. If it's a late '27 first, probably not. But if it's a, if it's a mid to early, I'm fine. Help me please. They said they'd send away Bijon for Gibbs and KD. Yeah, I feel like Gibbs is just set to blow up this week. I'm facing him, and I'm kind of always thinking negatively now in the Flock League. But guess what? He had his lowest points per points in fantasy ever the week before I played him. And now he plays the Commanders. Like, dude, how, how does Jir Gibbs not have like 25 points this week? I, I just, I hope it's the complete opposite. And I hope it's Jared Goff just throwing, airing the ball out because I have Jared Goff. I'm hoping, you know what? There was so bad that they didn't really get the ball rolling on either on the ground or in the air. So, both have to be done. So maybe it won't be as bad as you think. Maybe like, you know what, Jir Gibbs is going to get a touchdown and maybe it's just, maybe it's just 15 points.
>> I don't know. Anybody who says it won't be as bad as you think hasn't watched a Washington game this year. >> As a Washington fan, I don't know that you could remove >> stopping Zack Sharp and Kenneth Walker. >> No. Look, no. You could remove all of our linebackers and it wouldn't make a difference to how many points the other offense scores. I'm convinced at this point that you could probably put Alabama's defense on the field and they would be better. >> This is probably the worst defense in football. Oh, you know our number one quarterback, Marshon Latimore, who's already dog. Oh, yeah. By the way, he tore his ACL. Surprise. >> Traded for him, too. I think that's what sucks about that. >> Yeah. >> Uh, yeah. No. Uh, Washington are truly awful. Um, would you do this trade though? Would you send away Bijon? I mean, who does he have at tight end? I wonder. >> Yeah, I think that's >> He's got like, he already has Bowers. There's no reason to do this then. >> Yeah, George KD needs to be somebody else if you're going to do this. Um, can you get, take away George KD? I mean, there's really no one. I guess maybe something small if you need, I don't know, like a Romeo Dobbs, a JK Dobbins. Does that get it across the board? I feel like those are the only two names that come to mind on this guy's team. You can't get it. You can't get a Puka. I don't want Cup Shepherd. So, those are the two names. >> What if you tried to get Puka and you sent back, yeah, your, your ser room is not that great. >> Yeah, he doesn't have much. >> So, like, if anything, what might be best is getting Romeo because there's so many injuries there. Going to go from Bijon to Gibbs for Romeo Dobbs. >> Sure, I, I understand that. >> Yeah, I'm personally not doing it. That's my answer. But if you have a different one, you can walk us through it. >> Yeah. No, that's good. I'm there with you. I don't want to get it for George KD, but like I said, Ro, um, Romeo Dobbs, if you wanted to do that, I think that's probably your best option.
>> Would you send a second and London for a first and Garrett Wilson? >> Depends on where these are projected. If that's an early projected pick and that you're sending away an early second and you're projected a late first, then no. But >> exactly. Exactly. >> Otherwise, if it's going to be a little more random, then I'm fine. It says first is projected to be the 103. The second is projected to be the 2011. >> Okay. So, that's a big, like a bigger tier. I think Garrett Wilson's value will drop this year in Dynasty just based off of how these guys are >> I don't think so. rebuilding, >> got the long-term extension, has looked really good, and they have like six first round picks in the next two years to figure out quarterback. >> I, yeah, I mean, just depends on where that quarterback situation's going to go. Um, >> if that's guaranteed to be top three, I would do it for sure. >> Yeah. >> But if it ends up being like 107 onwards, I don't think so. But if it's guaranteed top three, then I, I would do it. Um, D-Rock is at quarterback between Caleb and Nix this week. Do like Nix this week a lot. >> I do like him as well. Um, I'm just worried about how much he's going to be utilized and like how much he really has to do if they get the ball running. >> Yeah. >> Um, and Caleb, who's Caleb playing? Remind me again. Um, Caleb is playing the Giants. Yeah, >> I'll go Caleb Williams. >> Okay. >> Um, our secondary is beat up there. >> Yeah, I, uh, trying to figure out who can make a more competitive game. >> I would say the Giants can, which is crazy to say, but like Jackson Dart has been scoring. They just need to catch the ball. Give him some wide receivers. He can't do it by himself. Literally. >> Yeah. Um, I just feel like I'm gonna start the player that I have more confidence in overall this year, which is >> Bo Nix. >> Yeah, look, it definitely makes sense. I'm not, I can definitely see that. I have these guys back to back. Actually, it's a lie. I have one person in between them, which is Baker Mayfield. Um, so >> yeah, I'll go B, but it's close at running back two. This is >> Swift. >> Who does ETM play again? I'm trying to remember. >> The Jags play the the Texans. >> Right? Yeah. Okay. Swift there. Um, at wide receiver two, we will go with Sutton >> on Friday night. And then in your flex, I think it's got to be Etion. >> I do like Smith this week, but >> I think I might go Devonte Smith here. >> Yeah, I just think Eten safer, but I can understand that Smith is a higher, uh, ceiling. >> Yeah, I would, I hear that. >> Uh, >> appreciate you, Drock. >> Appreciate you, man. Yes. Um, let's see.
>> Got to refresh here, I think. >> Yep. We've got some questions here. We'll get to the super chats in a second once we're done here on the site. But Daniel says, "We need to talk about Brian Thomas Jr. My thoughts, Lawrence is nah." >> Yeah. >> I mean, it's a combination of both. It's not all on Lawrence, to be honest. >> Yeah. I mean, I've always been, not that I've been out on Brian Thomas, I've just been always been on the fence of Trevor Lawrence. Um, he really hasn't performed well. I know a lot of that was probably on the coaching staff, but even Liam Cohen, who transformed Baker Mayfield, goes to Jacksonville, and it doesn't, doesn't feel that way. Um, I still like Brian Thomas as a talent, but I, if what everyone was saying is true that Travis Hunter was about to have this breakout, it was kind of putting Brian Thomas on that like the back burner as if Travis Hunter was going to be the wide receiver one and Brian Thomas was going to be the wide receiver two there. And if that is the case, then maybe in a dynasty perspective, we have to re-evaluate Brian Thomas if Travis Hunter was really going to break out, but we would never know. >> Yeah, >> unfortunately. >> I mean, I kind of, I kind of lean on >> I don't think Trevor or I don't think that Brian Thomas has been healthy this year. I think that's really been a problem. I don't think he's been healthy at really at any point. Um, but he's not played up to his potential. I don't think what we saw last year was a fluke either. Like you can't just performance, >> but he's not lived up to his potential. Lawrence hasn't and he's been injured. I just, that's where I stand. Uh, Daniel says, "Zack, keep your head up. We love Happy Zack." Uh, >> yep, >> we do like Happy Zack. Give me one second. I'll be right back. >> I will try. Um, this is Swift. And if Swift doesn't play, it's, uh, Manonga. Um, and then in the flex spot, I'd probably roll with what you have there for sure. Um, I'd love to be happy. I'm trying. I'm trying. Never had a season this bad with injuries. Daniel, seven and two. Would you do this? Please look at my team. So, he would send away Gibbs for Kyron and Lamb. I mean, don't feel like we need to look at your team. I would definitely take this, but I will look at your team. Team, you would have Chase Brown, Kyron Williams, but you get CD Lamb. I mean, yeah, I just can't think of a reason not to make this trade, man. Um, I, I would pretty comfortably go ahead and, and take the Kyron and CD Lamb side. He'd be your instantly your best receiver. Obviously losing Gibbs is going to be hurtful, but a lineup of Dart, Kyron, Brown, Lamb, Eggbuka, one of those tight ends, and Pitman or McMillan is better than what you currently have, so I'm fine with it. Um, I love VG says, "Wide receiver room is a Monroe." Okay, let's see. Bad luck in up and down quarterback play. So they are sending they are receiving Caleb and Amanra. They're sending Allen and Chase Brown.
>> The other, the other way around. >> Yeah, that's what I mean. My bad. Um, I'd rather keep the Amanra side personally. >> Yeah, I think Josh Allen but >> a wide receiver Jason CDQJ room is Cook H. And yeah, you just have enough running back. You have Cook and Achan and you have Amanra. So like, I just, you, this is going to really hurt your wide receiver room in depth. But I guess like, would you rather flex, I guess maybe this is what he's thinking. Like, would you rather flex QJ or Chase Brown? And this is kind of what he's doing here. >> Well, actually, I don't think it matters. >> You're losing a receiver. Yeah, I don't think it matters because you're already flexing one of these wide receivers anyway. >> Yeah, I'd rather, rather stay strong with Amanra than get a Josh Allen personally. >> I, I hear that as well. So, I'm there with you. >> All right. Um, >> ALCJ. >> Mhm. >> Um, struggling at wide receivers, just lost craft. Is it worth it?
>> Um, no. >> Yeah, I'll take, I'll hold on to Bijon. >> Yeah, >> get the waiver wire. I understand. I mean, your receiver room is, is pretty awful. You're definitely right about that. But losing Bijon, I just, like, I'm not doing this for Wadd and Bowers. Um, is there another N man? Look, what if, can he, can he, can he really make it worth it for you? Like, can he add Michael Pitman and you'll send back like Booty or something? Like, it, it's just not enough. He's not hurting enough to take on Bijon. This is not enough for Bijon. Um, add Sequon and give him back even like a Warren doesn't, I'm just not sure. Sequon's not been the same this year, but I don't like it, man. I understand you're, you're, you're struggling at wide receiver, but it needs, it needs to hurt him a little bit more. Maybe add like an AJ Brown and, you know, send back a Booty or something. It's, it's not enough right now. It's not enough for Bijon yet. Jay says, "An absolute hell this week." Um, I'll define that. I can speak on that more than anyone. Devont Smith. Um, let's play a game. Is your lineup worse than mine? Um, probably would play Parker Washington there. That's tough for sure. Then at flex. All right. You're in hell for sure. I get it. I mean, I'm going to play Chris. The first person that comes to mind is Christian Watson. And then probably the next guy is going to be either, if Trey Benson doesn't play, if Marty Marcato, or next man up, just feels like Dalton Schultz. >> We haven't heard anything about Trey Benson. >> No, we haven't heard anything. So I, I mean, I don't think he's going to play. >> Yeah, >> but >> I'll go Dalton there. >> Yeah. >> That's probably the one lineup this week that is potentially worse than mine. I'll show y'all what I'm dealing with right now. Um, so we have Stevenson. Doesn't look like he's going to play. We have Bucky. Doesn't look like he's going to play. We lost Jaden Daniels, so we're starting Matthew Stafford. Um, so what I might end up having to do is put Woody Marks here and I might have to start JCM. And then I have to put, put Woody, uh, Bucky back on the bench. And then who do I flex? Well, there's no one available, so going to have to go to the waiver wire. And I don't, I felt like the waiver wire was better last year, and we had one more spot on our benches. Like, our benches are shorter this year, and I felt like the waiver wire was better last year. Does that make sense? >> I, I think there was just a lot. Um, this year I felt like was very top-heavy. There's nothing on the waiver wires in this have that have been in the waiver wires in the second half of the season. >> Yeah. >> Right. When someone got injured or someone broke out, it was all the, the first half of the season. So like, um, I can't even think of one right now. >> Yeah. >> Um, Gazn was in the first half of the season. You know, some people already drafted handcuffs compared to last year. That's, that was the difference as well. There was a lot of handcuffs on the waiver wires this year or there wasn't as many handcuffs on the waiver wires this year compared to last year. >> Yeah. Um, All right. Tampa Bay of Pigs. It says, "Swap any of these for Vidal, Godwin, or Warren. He's starting Dart." Um, look, there's a potential that Bucky and Kyle aren't out there. So, well, first off, like Jaylen Warren, I'd play. Yeah, look, if, if either of these guys aren't there, then of course you start Warren over Vidal. But if both they aren't them aren't there, then you have to start both of those names. At receiver, London, Jandelle, uh, Leaporta, Orcinc, Kade, I don't have a real strong opinion on that one. Probably lean Leaporta, but >> I don't have one that's going to be Leapora, though. Um, >> and then at the back to back, >> I guess you have to put both of these guys in. >> But at the same time, if you're telling me you have Jaylen Warren, then you start Jaylen Warren over both Kincaid and Jameson Williams. >> Yeah. Um, yeah, appreciate you. I >> think that might be, I'm just going to refresh and see if there's anything that we can go to the super chats on the site.
>> Um, yeah. >> Hold on. This isn't letting me submit. Let me go back and refresh. Oh, okay. Well, it's gone. So, maybe it did let me submit. >> Yeah. >> All right. We've got some super chats here. Let's get to those. >> Am I tripping? I feel like there's only one. >> There's two. You can check the back end, but Merrick Murray is first. >> The back end only is only showing one. >> Is it Merrick Murray? >> Yes. >> Well, there was another. Maybe it's a different form. Um, Merrick Murray says, "Manonga and Pierce for God. I had Craft. I'm still not bought in on God the rest of the year." Like, I don't know. I'm not bought on him being like a, you know, an answer. He's an option, but I don't think he's like the answer every week. Like, people are >> Yeah. I mean, there's just a lot of other tight ends that you could pick up and, and flex. I mean, or off the waiver wires if possible. Hunter Henry, Theo Johnson, Zack Ers, Joan Johnson, Dalton, Dalton Schultz. Doesn't get exciting. More exciting. I mean, Mason Taylor if he's available. But like Alec Pierce, I think is a good plus, though. I mean, I think it's crazy that he's out snapping Alec. Um, sorry, Josh DS. I mean, 81, 87, 81, 91% of the snap share since week six. And Josh DS has just been, he's, he's gotten the touchdowns, but hasn't been playing the snaps that, uh, I guess you were hoping for. So >> yeah, um, I can see why this is intriguing, but >> I'd prefer to keep Manonga and Pierce. I wouldn't do that for God. I'd do that for like, um, a Warren, KD, one of those names. Uh, honestly, probably do it for KD. Um, Eli had a super chat here says, "So, what do you think of this? I trade away Drake London, receive Mason and Brian Thomas." No. >> No. >> Yeah, thank you. It's a hard pass, my friend. >> Yeah, that's not a good trade. >> Hard pass. All right. Well, we had some Dynasty team reviews. We're not going to get to those today. Um, but we appreciate y'all big time. Uh, let's answer some questions at random here before we, we log off. >> Yeah. >> Uh, let's, let's, let's answer three questions at random. Three questions at random. Um, let's start with Sehei who says, "Sell a Lav or Higgins for Wale?" I'd >> um, I'm okay with the L. Lav and Wale are pretty even. I think, uh, Wandell has the better quarterback. >> If you can get like a two for two there where you >> get Welle plus an upgrade to send a Lav plus a downgrade to the other guy, I would do it. >> Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay with something like that. I want to keep T. Higgins, though. >> Yeah. >> One out of three. >> Mhm. Um, Okay. Kenneth Walker or Shakir? Um, I want Shakir. I want Shakir. That may be biased, but I'm watching the Bills games because I'm fully invested in James Cook and Shakir. Shakir, they are just giving him the easy targets. >> Yeah. >> I don't know. The last two games, watch the last two games of the Bills. When you see Shakir line up on on the line of scrimmage and he's looking down to the ball when no one else, that means it's going to be, it's, they go for a quick, that quick screen on the side. I have no idea why. I've noticed that the past two weeks, but they just want it, they want to get the ball in his hand. >> Um, and that might change this week. Who knows? They might not even do that. I look like an idiot, but, um, sure. >> Last free question, then we'll get to the super chat. Um, let's do Mike says, "Dynasty, Mahomes, Addison, and a third or Cook and a '26 first." If it's Superflex, probably going to keep Mahomes. >> Yeah, Mahomes. >> Uh, Ramen God has a, has a super chat here and we'll log off. "Drop Alec for Coloulston?" Probably not. Nah, I'm in the same boat as other ones. Like, if there are some, if there's somebody out there, Theo Hunter, Mark Andrews, Zack Z, Jawan Johnson, Dalton Schultz, if you're trying to send this for a tight end, who is still technically going to be competing with snaps when most likely Cole KT comes back and Alec Pierce has been playing 90% of the snaps in the past since week six. Give me Alec Pierce and the yardage. It's deep bomb passes. That's he's been getting. Yeah, >> 98 yards, 115 yards, 69 yards, and then 48 yards. >> I'll take Alec Pierce. I think he, not that he's a truth, but he's just been, he's on the field. >> Um, let's go to the site. Um, and then as soon as we stop getting these questions, we are off. Junior start sit says, "Also thinking of dropping Williams for Flaco. JJ Brassette. I'd hold on to Caleb right now." Um, but this week I'd start Daniel Jones. Um, then honestly, I think I would, this is the first time I've had that question. I probably would start Dan Caleb over Daniel Jones this week. >> Mhm. >> Um, >> I'm there. I'm there with you. >> At wide receiver, I would go Wandell here. >> Wandell. Yeah. And then at the flex is, I think if Aaron Jones plays, you play him because he looked really good. But if he doesn't, then I'm going to go Jordan Addison. >> What if Stevenson doesn't play? I think it's Henderson for me. >> Yeah. Um, I mean, that is true. If Stevenson doesn't play, it is Henderson. >> Yeah. >> But if Stevenson, I guess it just depends. Aaron Jones plays, you play him. If Stevenson doesn't play or does play, then it's Jordan Addison. >> Yeah. >> So, kind of cover all your bases there. Uh, Bowkis says, "Godwin droppable for Pierce? Who would you suggest to target?" Well, at quarterback, or start McCarthy this week, uh, at your flex spots, you'll start Zay. >> Yeah, >> it's going to be Zayn and Keenan Allen, I think. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> But I don't want to play. >> His question is Godwin droppable for Pierce. Oh, I'd rather have Alec Pierce. Yeah, I would agree. I, I, look, I would personally be dropping JCM. >> What if I told you he plays Miami next week? >> I just don't think that matters. But I mean, I could be wrong. I think I mean, Mario on Hampton doesn't come back. Look, keeping JCM is technically worth it because if Hampton, if one of your guys goes on, I guess you have another running back. So, actually, it's probably worth keeping JCM because you don't have more depth there. So, yeah, >> I'm there. I'm there with you. >> All right. Um, I think that's it for today. >> Appreciate you guys. >> Appreciate y'all. Um, we will be live on Saturday. We'll be live on Saturday. I think I'll probably come back that night before. Make sure I'm good to go here. How far is the drive? >> Um, like an hour and a half. >> Yeah. Okay, that's it today, guys. We'll see you on Saturday. Enjoy your weekend. Enjoy Thursday night. We won't be live before tomorrow's game, but we will be live on Saturday. Love. >> Love.
