Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Fantasy Football Today from CBS Sports. Here we go! Email us at fantasyfootballatcbsi.com. Here we go! It's time to dominate your fantasy league. Let's go! Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. Big mailbag show, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:00:21 I got almost 45 or so emails in the notes today i'm gonna try to read as many as we can at fantasy football at cbsi.com i am adam azer i have a very sick heath cummings been what a rough week for us so heath we're gonna try to get you out as soon as we can thank you for toughening it out yeah i mean i i know i'm not certain that I'm totally sick yet. Generally, when I start to get sick during football season, I just push it off until after football season and I'm sick for like 10 days after week 16.
Starting point is 00:00:55 So I'd expect I'll be fine. Toughening. Is that what I meant to say? Yeah, I guess that is what I meant to say. I could have said toughing. I don't know. Toughing it out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sammy Watkins is not going to be toughening or Toughing it out. Toughing it out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sammy Watkins is not going to be toughing it out. He's out four to six weeks with a foot injury.
Starting point is 00:01:12 What do you think? That's not that surprising. I did see one place say that includes the time he missed, which is kind of silly. I think the main takeaway here is he's not playing again in the regular season. Yeah. Kelvin Benjamin, Chris Conley, any interest? They'd better not give Chris Conley snaps to Kelvin Benjamin.
Starting point is 00:01:35 It's Chris Conley, and he's still, for me, just a – I mean, he's very similar to Josh Reynolds, a low-end number three. If he scored a touchdown, it would be better. He is 30% owned. Not a lot of notes to get to. It's about 1.30 p.m. Eastern. Miami cornerback Xavier Howard's out. Cleveland cornerback Denzel Ward is out. And Duke Johnson did return to practice.
Starting point is 00:01:51 Here's an email of the day. Of all these emails, one stood out from the crowd. It's from Thomas. Two things. It's supposed to be super cold this weekend for many games. Does this affect your rankings of certain players like Jared Goff, who has played noticeably worse in cold weather games i don't generally downgrade for cold unless it's derrick carr now maybe i need to look into jared goff's uh history and
Starting point is 00:02:16 maybe it's similar to derrick cars in the cold and i don't love jared goff this week he's not a top 12 quarterback so if you're looking for an excuse to sit him and you want to use the cold, that's fine. I just think you should sit him. Yeah, and he's part of the Bonanza, so that's not good. No, I think Mariota's another guy you would look at in cold weather. I think it was like 40 degrees last night or Thursday night when he played
Starting point is 00:02:38 because he's a Hawaii guy and that could be an issue for him. Yeah, I mean, it is worth noting. It is starting to get really cold. It's not fun up here for most people. It's great for Heath in South Florida. Yeah, I hadn't really noticed. I mean, I did turn my furnace on one night because it was like
Starting point is 00:02:53 got down to the 40s. Yeah, yeah. But that only lasted for about an hour. Oh, man, I missed the 40s. PPR, so Thomas' email was so good, we're going to answer a starter set. PPR, choose one, Tevin Coleman, Kenyon Drake, or Jeffrey Wilson? The one with Jeffrey.
Starting point is 00:03:12 It does feel really kind of gross that it's the first week of the fantasy playoffs, and I've told so many people to start Jeff Wilson, Jalen Samuels, and Justin Jackson. Well, get used to it. You're going to be telling a lot more on today's show. I can tell you that much. Great. And Fanduel.com slash FFT. I'm sure you can put some of those guys in your lineup.
Starting point is 00:03:32 My lineup is so good that you should enter the contest because second place still pays handsomely. But I've more or less got first place locked up with my lineup. Fanduel.com slash FFT. Join it, people. And if you sign up at Fanduel.com slash FFT join it, people. And if you sign up at FanDuel.com slash FFT, you get a $5 bonus, and then you can use that to join our contest for $5. Can I give a
Starting point is 00:03:51 really fun lineup that I came up with on the Pick 6 podcast? Okay. If you start Justin Jackson and Jalen Samuels and Jeffrey Wilson, then you can play Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelsey, Devontae Adams,
Starting point is 00:04:14 Keenan Allen, and T.Y. Hilton. You should definitely take advantage of those waiver wire running backs for sure. Here we go with the emails. No greetings, no guessing cities. Just get to as many as we can. From Ross, half PPR, start two. One of them has to be a wide receiver. Taylor Gabriel, Deshaun Hamilton, Devin Funchess.
Starting point is 00:04:40 First of all, pick one of them. Taylor Gabriel. Now pick one more. Spencer Ware, Gus Edwards, Funchess, First of all, pick one of them. Taylor Gabriel. Now pick one more. Spencer Ware, Gus Edwards, Funchess, or Hamilton? Gus. Non-PPR, pick three from Rob in Connecticut.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Phillip Lindsay, David Johnson, Sonny Michelle, James White, Mark Ingram, Gus Edwards, Justin Jackson. This is non-PPR, right? Correct. I am going to go with Lindsey, David Johnson, and Gus Edwards. Over Sonny Michelle?
Starting point is 00:05:11 Alright, go ahead and go. You deserve it. Take a victory lap on last week. Why? Two weeks ago. It was two weeks ago, wasn't it? When Michelle had a good game? When you told me I was stupid for ranking Sonny Michelle too low. Oh, you had him ranked behind Elijah McGuire in PPR.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Well, this week I've got him ranked behind Jalen Samuels. That's fine. Justin Jeffrey Wilson. I think Gus Edwards and Sonny Michel are pretty similar, except I'm not worried about Sonny Michel's team getting blown out. Yeah, Gus Edwards is getting a larger share of his team's rush attempts. The interesting thing is they are both in spots. The Ravens run more plays than anybody.
Starting point is 00:06:01 And the Patriots run the second amount of plays. But they're both playing teams in the Dolphins and Chiefs that don't run a ton of plays. So it will be interesting to see if they can maintain... To put it in context, a team like the Arizona Cardinals might run 54 offensive plays a game, which is just awful. The average team might run 60 or 61. The Patriots have been running 67 plays a game. 70 for
Starting point is 00:06:30 the Ravens. All season long? Yeah. Here's Kyle. I need four starters and half PPR. Two running backs, a tight end, and a flex. Jalen Samuels is tight end eligible. Two running backs. Jeff Wilson, Justin Jackson, Gus Edwards, Jalen Samuels.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Or do you like Samuels better than Gronkowski? I do. Alright, so Samuels is your tight end. So pick two out of three. Wilson, Jackson, Edwards. Half PPR. Half PPR, I think I would go with Wilson and Edwards. Alright, pick a flex. Justin Jackson, Gronkowski, Adam Humphreys. I'm going to have to go to the rankings. He's going to the rankings, ladies and gentlemen. So I've got Gronk for about 12 half PPR points.
Starting point is 00:07:17 I've got Adam Humphreys for about 13 half PPR points. And I have Justin Jackson at 13.5. Okay. So Justin Jackson, Justin Jackson. It is from Jorge, Cam Newton, Baker Mayfield,
Starting point is 00:07:32 Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen. Who do you like? I'm sticking with Cam Newton for now, unless we get even more negative news about Cam. I'm not as excited about Baker Mayfield and Josh Allen as Jamie is. I guess Damie's excited about Mayfield. It's just Jamie that's excited about Josh Allen.
Starting point is 00:07:52 I'm going to stick with Cam. All right. Another email from Matthew. Baldwin, Allen Robinson, or DJ Moore? I prefer DJ Moore. I don't know why he's still on waivers. Yeah, he's on waivers. Pick him up.
Starting point is 00:08:06 From Ewan, dear rightful Butterfinger hater, because they are nasty, and Keith, I had Derek Henry on my bench last night, but I'm in the playoffs. I need your help. Half PPR, choose two running backs, two wide receivers, and then one flex. Two running backs, Heath. Michelle, Edwards, Eckler, Justin Jackson, half PPR. I prefer Edwards and Eckler.
Starting point is 00:08:29 Edwards and Eckler. Okay. Two receivers. Hopkins, Cooper, Moore, and Baldwin. I like your choices a lot better here, and I will take Hopkins and Cooper. Give me a flex. Michelle, Jackson, Moore, Baldwin. I think I'm going to go with Jackson.
Starting point is 00:08:47 From Aldo, Jalen Samuel or DJ Moore? Samuels. Samuels, yes. Oh, so it's probably Curtis Samuel or DJ Moore. DJ Moore. Drew Brees or Lamar Jackson? Brees. Josh Adams or Justin Jackson?
Starting point is 00:09:04 PPR. Jackson. From Will in Normal, Illinois Adams or Justin Jackson? PPR. Jackson. From Will in Normal, Illinois, please start three in PPR. Samuels, Cook,
Starting point is 00:09:12 Edwards, McCoy, Ware, Pettis. Samuels, Cook, Edwards, McCoy,
Starting point is 00:09:16 Ware, Pettis. The first three. Samuels, Cook, and Edwards. From Finn in Jersey, I'm torn at wide receiver
Starting point is 00:09:22 two this week. I have Alshon Jeffrey, but I will not start him. On my bench, I have Dante Pettis, Curtis Samuel, and Zay Jones. It is standard scoring. Would you go with Dante Pettis, Curtis Samuel, Zay Jones, or Alshon? I'd go with Dante
Starting point is 00:09:36 Pettis, and I agree with Finn. I would start all three of those receivers over Alshon. Danny from Alexandria, Virginia. Half-point PPR league. Who do I start in my flex? I can only pick one. Curtis Samuel, Justin Jackson, Jalen
Starting point is 00:09:51 Richard, Marlon Mack, and Stephen Ridley. Oh, you love OutKast, right? Yeah. You should sing. No. Starting Miss Jackson. I don't love OutKast. I don't know why I said yeah. I am for real. You're starting Miss Jackson? All right, Justin Jackson it is.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Why did I claim to love Outkast? I absolutely do. Why wouldn't you like Outkast? They are phenomenal. I don't care either way. That's fine, whatever. You hate the Beastie Boys, right? Hate the Beastie Boys, yes.
Starting point is 00:10:23 They're terrible. Is there anyone from that genre of music that you do like? I like the Quad City DJs. Come on, ride the train. Come on, ride that train. Ride it. I don't think that's the same genre. You're talking about hip-hop?
Starting point is 00:10:42 Rock hip-hop? I mean, I like the Outkast songs that I have heard. I just don't... Did you like any rap? No, I was never a rap guy. Okay. I mean, Nelly was fine. I'm a rocker, Heath.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Look at me. Look at me. I'm a rocker. It's obvious. Jordan in Kansas City. Maybe he knows Heath. PPR, Cam or Jameis? Jameis.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Tevin Coleman or Jeff Wilson? Wilson. From Bahir, I need two of these running backs. David Johnson, James White, Mark Ingram, Jalen Samuels, Josh Adams, Spencer Ware. I am going with David Johnson and... James White, Ingram, Samuels, Josh Adams, Spencer Ware. Okay. Now, why would we go with Samuels over James White?
Starting point is 00:11:48 I'm nervous about the Patriots. There's too many mouths mouths to feed two of them are going to suck okay well that's yeah all right uh from patrick i was about to make a joke but then i was realized it was going to sound so inappropriate so i stopped making it from patrick i need a miracle or an exorcism my team is cursed i have hunt g, Gordon, Brita, and Mack. I feel doomed. But it's a two-week playoff matchup. Would you rather start Eckler and Jackson in non-PPR? Wait, it looks like most of you would rather start Eckler and Jackson. Or one of them and either Spencer Ware or Marlon Mack? I would start both. And I realize it seems like, man, I'm really limiting my upside
Starting point is 00:12:23 because only one of them can be good. It's the Bengals. That's not true. They might run the ball 40 times. They might both go for 100 yards and a touchdown. Oh, I hope so because I am starting both of them. Except I have not determined if I'm going to go through with it. But right now I'm starting both of them over LeSean McCoy.
Starting point is 00:12:37 I would 100% do that. Okay. From Samson, start two in PPR. Jackson, Wilson, Reynoldsnolds and golden tate jackson and wilson from jake looking ahead what's your outlook for leonard fournette uh looking ahead rest of season i think he's going to be a touchdown dependent number two running back um for his career i hope that he gets on they get a quarterback. I'm much more optimistic about Leonard Fournette.
Starting point is 00:13:08 I don't know what's changed between now and weeks 10, 11, and 12 when he was elite. No worse than RB8. I just don't think you can count on 20 plus carries on a team that bad.
Starting point is 00:13:27 He got 14 on Thursday night, and they lost by 21, I think. They are really bad. Let's see. Their matchups are Washington at Miami and at Houston. You're probably starting him for the first two. I don't—and Week 17 doesn't matter. I'm not even going to be here week 17. I am.
Starting point is 00:13:47 So it does matter. So it doesn't matter if you're not going to be here. I'm not going to be here because it doesn't matter. I see. Okay. Well, I want to tell you all about Omaha Steaks. Last year was their 100th anniversary. And Omaha Steaks is America's original butcher since 1917.
Starting point is 00:14:08 And just it's amazing how much food they're giving you. Take it from me because I have used Omaha Steak. Used it. I've eaten Omaha Steak. In fact, I have recently got the package from Omaha Steaks a couple of weeks ago, and we are slowly just dominating it. The kielbasa is gone. The burgers are halfway gone. We had some of the steaks. It's just delicious. The chicken
Starting point is 00:14:31 fried steak was awesome. I don't think the chicken fried steak is part of this package that we're giving out, so don't tease them, Heath. Oh, no, it is. It is. I'm sorry. The chicken fried steaks are part of this. Here's what you're getting. For $49.99, you are getting enough for a barbecue. If you want to host all your friends and family, look at all this food you're getting for $49.99. Four hand-cut top sirloin steaks,
Starting point is 00:14:54 two premium pork chops, four chicken fried steaks, four Omaha steak burgers, four kielbasa sausages, four... all beef meatballs four potatoes au gratin four caramel apple tartlets and four more burgers for free so this is again fifth generation family-owned company with over 100 years of experience delivering perfectly aged beef hand cut by master butchers in omaha and you are absolutely going to love it so go to omahasteaks.com and type in fft in the search bar omahasteaks.com and type in FFT in the search bar. omahasteaks.com FFT in the search bar. That's how you get this limited time package. $49.99. One last time, omahasteaks.com FFT in the search bar. And back to the emails. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Where are we? Jorge. Two in PPR. Startke jackson justin jackson uh marlin mack and jarvis landry everyone has justin jackson everyone is starting justin jackson um drake landry and mac for me it comes down to drake and landry i'm i'm really worried about Marlon Mack this week. I expect 13 PPR points from Kenyon Drake, and I've got Jarvis Landry projected for 13 as well. I'll go with Landry. Okay, from Cole. Should I start Edelman, Ingram, Jeff Wilson, Jalen Samuels,
Starting point is 00:16:20 or Justin Jackson in the flex? What are we doing here? We're just going to spend an hour telling people to start Jalen Samuels? He's your favorite of Samuels, Wilson, Jackson? Does not tell us the format, does he? No. It's a bad job, Cole.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Should I call him? I'm calling him out. 1-800-COLE-SUX. Okay, so if it's non-PPR, I am going to start Jeff Wilson and Justin Jackson. I think he only needs one. If it's non-PPR, I'm going to start Jeff Wilson. In non-PPR?
Starting point is 00:17:03 I like Jeff Wilson better than Samuels in non PPR, but isn't Wilson better in PPR. I mean, Jamie and I seem to think that he needs his passing production to be good against the Broncos. Do you not feel that way? I think he needs his passing production. I don't feel as much like he needs the receptions.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Oh, you just yards. I think he's going to get a hundred. Yeah. Okay. Okay's going to get 100, yeah. Okay, okay. So I don't think he needs his catches so much as he just, that work in the passing game makes me feel confident he's going to get close to 100 yards. All right. Jake in Atlanta.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Help me choose between... Hey, gosh. Well, it's PPR. Pick two. Ingram, Boyd, Samuels, Justin Jackson, Theo Riddick, and Chris Godwin. See, we're getting different names in there. Yes, yes. I am going to go with Curtis Samuels for sure.
Starting point is 00:18:03 I like Ingram better than Jackson in PPR. But you like Boyd? Let me check out Tyler Boyd. Yeah, Boyd, yeah. All right, Dylan, Standard League pick two. Mark Ingram, Dalvin Cook, Joe Mixon, Jalen Samuels, Austin Eckler. I'm going to go with Eckler and Samuels. Over Mixon?
Starting point is 00:18:26 Yep. I don't like Mixon. From Jose, six point per passing touchdown league, Dak Prescott, Kirk Cousins, Jalen Samuels, or Joe Jackson? I have never been so happy in my life to get a quarterback start question. I will go with Cousins over Dak. Here's one from Drew. He needs two in PPR. Ingram, Sonny Michelle, Gus Edwards, Jalen Samuels,
Starting point is 00:18:49 Carryon Johnson, Marlon Mack, Larry Fitzgerald. Start Carryon Johnson. He's not going to play. No. No Carryon. He said PPR. Yeah. No Mack.
Starting point is 00:19:03 I'm going to go with Samuels and Sony Michelle. Okay, you're taking Michelle. No, but you have Gus Edwards here. It's PPR, right? So you like Edwards better than Michelle? I'm looking. No, I'm sorry. You're right.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Edwards over Michelle. Samuels and Edwards. And you like both of them over Larry Fitzgerald? Yeah. Yeah. That's going to be a low, low scoring game. I don't know that we go back to 12
Starting point is 00:19:30 targets for Larry Fitzgerald. This is from Adam. With the Hunter Henry incident in the past, please pick three of four. Camara, Gus Edwards, Ware, Dalvin Cook. I think it was the Derrick Henry incident he was talking about. I said Hunter? Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:45 I suck. Derrick Henry. Kamara, you're sitting where? Okay. From Christopher, PPR, pick two. Jeff Wilson, Kenyon Drake, Spencer Ware, Gus Edwards. Wilson and Edwards. Now pick a flex. Kenyon Drake, Spencer Ware,
Starting point is 00:20:01 Tyler Boyd. Boyd. From Mitch, PPR, I have Mixon, Spencer Ware, Tyler Boyd. Boyd. From Mitch, PPR. I have Mixon, Allen Robinson, LaShawn McCoy, Gus Edwards, and Dante Pettis. Who would you go with? I would stick with Mixon in that case. I like Mixon better than Edwards and PPR. Here's a guy from a town in Pennsylvania. I am projected at least 15 points behind my competitor in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:20:24 I need a lot of upside. Josh Reynolds, Dante Pettis, Traquan Smith, or Jalen Richard? I would go with Dante Pettis. From John, do I roll with Wilson against Minnesota or Josh Allen? I'm going with Russell Wilson, and I'm going to go back to the guy from Pennsylvania. Don't worry too much going into Sunday about what you're projected to win by or lose by. Start the best players. Unless you're facing Will Brinson's auction league team.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Then try to cheat somehow. Right. Start extra players. Brandon in a mile-high city. Flex one in standard scoring. Marlon Mack or DJ Moore? Moore. From Sean.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Half point per completion. Andrew Luck, Aaron Rodgers, or Jameis Winston? Ooh, Jameis. No, Rodgers. Rodgers. All right, Rodgers it is. Okay, everybody.

Also, listen to our Ion Fantasy Football Radio show Saturday nights, ladies and gentlemen. Jack is in a PPR league.
Starting point is 00:22:49 Naeem Hines, Spencer Ware, Jalen Richard, or Stephen Ridley? Ooh. Yeah. That's not any of the names that we've been talking about. Hines, Ware, Richard, or Ridley? I think I actually like Jalen. Maybe. See, I know you guys don't love Spencer Ware.
Starting point is 00:23:14 I know he is a tough matchup. But he's probably going to get the most work. And he's on the best offense. You know, like Spencer Ware. He's a Chiefs. Yeah, I'd probably... You're not feeling that? No, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:23:29 I have Jalen Rashard projected for the most PPR points. Naeem Hines is second. Can you take a look at Jalen Rashard's catches, though? The last, like, three games. Yeah, like three a game or something? Yeah, something like that. I'm not sure he has ten catches over his last three games, I'll tell you right now.
Starting point is 00:23:49 He has eight. Three, two, and three. Yeah, he's also got at least 12 PPR points in two of those games. Yeah, ironically, because it was rushing totals, which is strange. And that's what they should do. Let him run the... he's the best.
Starting point is 00:24:06 I've said it for three years. He's the best running back in Oakland. Mike in Massachusetts. I have Austin Eckler, Sean Ware – I don't know him – and Jalen Samuels. Do I go with Eckler, Ware, or Samuels, or maybe Golden Tate, Marquise Goodwin, or Adam Humphreys? It is standard scoring. I would go with Eckler.
Starting point is 00:24:26 In standard scoring? Yep. All right. From Shariar, Mahomes or Rivers? I'm going with Mahomes. Rolling with my homies. From Jeff, Mixon or Sonny Michel? Mixon.
Starting point is 00:24:40 From Josh in Redding, Pennsylvania, Mark Ingram or Adam Humphreys? We don't know the format, do we? I'll call Josh. 1-800-JOSH-SUCKS. I'm going to go with Mark Ingram in non-PPR and Adam Humphreys in PPR. Pick two wide receivers for Mike. And would you start any of them over Ware or Eckler in this flex?
Starting point is 00:25:02 Tyler Lockett, Dante Pettis, Alshon Jeffrey, Josh Reynolds, Cortland Sutton, Adam Humphreys. Pick two. Sutton and Humphreys are my two favorites. And I would start Pettis over Ware. I would not start Pettis over Eckler. Okay. From Mike, full point PPR, Josh Gordon or Mark Ingram?
Starting point is 00:25:25 Mark Ingram. I'm a little bit worried about Josh Gordon. He's only had eight. You said it on this show three weeks ago when we were talking about
Starting point is 00:25:34 who's going to lose. And you said, it looks like it's Josh Gordon. And I poo-pooed you. And so far, it has been Josh Gordon. He has eight targets in his last two games.
Starting point is 00:25:43 Gronk played in both of them? Gronk played in both of them. Gronk played in both of them. Right. He did catch a touchdown last week. That was nice. Yes, I like Josh Gordon. I think he's playing great, and he could score every game he has a chance to score, but he's not getting the targets.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Micah Carlson says, On Wednesday's show, you all agree that Dak Prescott is not a league winner. I've earned a first round bye, but I'm going to spend this week torturing myself on whether to bench Aaron Rodgers for Dak Prescott in weeks 15 and 16. You're going to bench Aaron Rodgers for Dak Prescott in weeks 15. Week 15? In week 16 he gets Tampa. Who does he get in week 15?
Starting point is 00:26:19 The Colts, I think. And Rodgers is at Chicago. Oh, wow, you're right about that. How about that? I'm not sure about I'm not sure if you will. I think you are. He's got like he's got 14 touchdown passes in 12 games. But it's feasible
Starting point is 00:26:35 goes up, though, since Amari Cooper got there, right? Not really. How many games has Cooper played? Five. I think he started the Tennessee game. He's got six touchdown passes in five games with Amari Cooper. I thought it was the game after Tennessee, but you may be right. Pretty sure it was the Tennessee game. It was after their bye.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Jamal in Tampa. Brandon Cooks, Amari Cooper, Tariq Cohen, PPR. Good ones. I'm going with Cooks. That's one of the betterq Cohen, PPR. Ooh, good ones. I'm going with Cooks. That's one of the better emails in terms of names that we've gotten. From Aiden, Standard Scoring League, pick three. Cook, Carson, Adams, Richard, Penny, and Ridley. Cook, Carson, Adams.
Starting point is 00:27:22 I've been following along in the notes. When you give me that many names, I have a hard time. You're right. I'm going to start Dalvin Cook. I'm going to start Josh Adams. Oh, I thought you were giving your answer. I am. Oh, I thought when you said Cook, Carson Adams, I thought that was your answer.
Starting point is 00:27:40 You were just reciting. Yes, but it is Cook, Carson Adams. Yeah, I thought so. From Alexander Humphreys, Baldwin, Fitzgerald, Standard. Adam were just reciting. Yes, but it is Cook, Carson, Adam. Yeah, I thought so. From Alexander, Humphreys, Baldwin, Fitzgerald, Standard. Adam Humphreys. From Trent, PPR, I need two running backs and a flex. Mixon, Eckler,
Starting point is 00:27:54 Gus Edwards, two of them. Let's go with Eckler and Gus. Oh, PPR, Eckler and Mixon. And then Edwards, DJ Moore, Tyler Boyd, Adam Humphreys. I'm going to go with Adam Humphreys. Jamal. Oh, I already read Jamal's. From Randy in Beer City, USA.
Starting point is 00:28:15 Half PPR league. One running back, one wide receiver, and a flex. Ware, Edwards, Jeff Wilson, Marlon Mack, Chris Thompson. Okay, so the running back. It's either Edwards or Wilson in half PPR. Wilson. Wide receiver, one of them. Fitzgerald, Cobb, Pettis, Jordy Nelson. Pettis.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Flex. Fitzgerald, Cobb, Nelson, Mack, Chris Thompson, Edwards, where? Edwards. Or did you say Edwards for the—you said Wilson for the running back, right? Yep, so Wilson, Edwards, and Pettis is who I would start. Here's my unbelievable FanDuel team, everybody. Oh, I have Ben Roethlisberger, no big deal. And his number one wide receiver, Antonio Brown.
