Now, here's some combination of Adam, Dave, Jamie, and Heath. Got some news and notes for you here. We got some fantasy cops for you here. We've got Jamie and Dan. Dan the cheater. Big cheater. Big cheater, Dan Schneier. What?

Yep. What are we talking about here? We're off to a good start. Broke the rules, everybody. What rule did I break? Oh, you'll find out. He's been complaining about this for a long time. Why did I never hear about this?

Well, he wanted to save it so he could share it with the audience. Oh no. Yeah. Well, first, first off, I appreciate you guys telling me that you're going to dress alike today.

So I guess I forgot my fatigues as well. We really differences. Look how much better I feel this shirt out than Adam does. Well, my shirts got long sleeve. Actually, look, no,

I, I feel it out. Fine. It's very small on me, actually. Um, but we, we look alike today. It long sleeves. Actually, look, no, I fill it out fine. It's very small on me, actually. But we look alike today. It's weird. Anyway, welcome to the mailbag. Welcome to Friday afternoon mailbag here.

And we're off. You guys, so the 30 seconds you were together at MetLife Stadium, you decided, hey, let's dress alike on Friday's show? I need to address that because it's unbelievable. Some people are calling it the tailgate hurt around the world. Some people are calling it tailgate gate. But you know what? Adam didn't even give me a chance to respond. Adam didn't even give me a chance to defend myself.

Adam joined up the tailgate. I said, Adam, come on over. You got a great tailgate. We've got, you know, food here. Help yourself. He's like, no, no, it's okay. Someone's coming around passing out shots. No, I don't want any.

It's okay. So you know what? I had some listeners from my podcast who are like, come on over, say hi. And Adam, of all people should know that when a listener of a podcast goes all the way out of their way to try to meet up with you at a game or something like that, you do it. And so I told Adam, I'll be right back. And all the times he used on the podcast were credibly exaggerated. I was there for five minutes. Oh, please, please. Five minutes. It was at least 10. And I think it was up to 15.

And not only that, you also got to spend time with my brother, who's the better version of me. A second more interesting people came by. No, I talked to him about that. He's like, I did my best. I asked like five to six questions. You know how tough that's been. He and I were having a great conversation. And these three other people who he knew

were like, hey, Matt, what's up? And that was it for Adam. So I just sat there on my phone waiting for Dan to come back after I had walked at least 15 minutes to the edge of New Jersey to this freaking tailgate where I didn't even get any food. You could have had – there was so much food to have. That was on you. I didn't feel comfortable. It wasn't my tailgate. I needed you there to facilitate the food.

That I understand. That I respect and I understand. So wait a minute. You keep saying you walked 15 minutes. It's the biggest hardship ever. It's a long walk. Where were you coming from? The parking lot.

Dan basically tailgates on the Jersey Turnpike. He turned and did a D3. Okay, but what were you doing, though? D3. It's known as the best spot to tailgate. What were you doing? I was sitting in the car. All right, listen.

By the way, I think we do. We'll get into this in a second, but I think we do need to have, and this will be real quick, a height recheck. Because after seeing you for a second time, Adam, I'm not actually sure you're taller than me. That's because look at your hair. Your hair is four inches high. That's not a good excuse. All right, let's get to the show here. News and notes.

Amonra St. Brown mispracticed. I'm also going to put Dan the Cheater in the notes so everybody can find out what he did. Amonra St. Brown mispracticed again on Friday, Jamie. They've got Carolina. Still not sure if he's going to play, so what do we need to do as fantasy managers right now? Well, I think Josh Reynolds becomes more interesting.

I think Jameson Williams becomes a little bit more interesting. And then, you know, we'll see if, uh, uh, was it Kalief Raymond? Um,

you know, get, get some opportunities as well. I would give Sam Laporta a little bit of a boost. I would hopefully give Jameer Gibbs a boost as well and, and see if maybe he becomes a little bit more factor in the passing it, but you got to downgrade Jared Goff, you know?

So if he's somebody that you're starting with the hope that he's going to get, you know, his usual 24, 25 points at home, great Jared Goff. So if he's somebody that you're starting with the hope that he's going to get his usual 24, 25 points at home, it's not exactly a matchup thing. It's because teams typically run on them. That's the expectation is they'll probably just run all over Carolina. So it would be not great for the pass catchers across the board and certainly not great for Jared Goff if Amon Ron St. Brown is not there because they'll probably be much more conservative. Yeah. Well, for my sake and for all the Jameer Gibbs managers out there, hopefully we get some dump-offs to Jameer Gibbs

and some more fantasy points there. But we'll keep an eye on Amonra St. Brown. And, of course, we have our live stream Sunday morning at 11.30 a.m. Eastern and Fantasy Football Today at 9 a.m. Eastern on CBS Sports HQ. You can watch either of those things. The Dolphins acquired Chase Claypool from the Bears. They also put Teron Armstead on IR, so he's going to miss at least the next four games.

Cooper Cup is expected to play, according to Diana Rossini of The Athletic. Not a surprise. And that's... Old participant, too. Von Miller says it's a safe bet that he's going to play in week five. But we don't need to manufacture a conversation about that game so I can play in week five. But we don't need a manufacturer or a conversation about

that game, so I can play the game of the week music for Dave. That already happened. So let's get to our Apple podcast questions here. This is from Josh3x. PPR, Laporta or Mark Andrews this week? Mark Andrews. I'm still going Mark Andrews, but it's an interesting question.

No, it's not. I mean, Laporta should be better. Well, the thought is, without Amon Ross St. Brown, this is rule. No, no, no. Moving on, moving on. You got a great situation for yourself. Trade Laporta or get a haul from Mark Andrews. Yeah.

All right, this is from, I don't have a name here. Sorry. Great show with the best lineup of podcast personalities, comma, even Dan. Dear Jermaine, Tyler, CJ, Hayden, and Irv. You had a little too much fun reading that one. These are Bengals tight ends? Same again.

Jermaine, Tyler, CJ, Hayden, and Irv. Yep. Yeah. Hayden,

her serve Smith done. There are three others there. I just needed those half PPR. So that's half PPR. Dan, that's where you get half a point per catch. Right, right,

right. Start a wide receiver at a flex T Higgins, Brian Robinson. Oops. Chris Olave and a flex. T. Higgins, Brian Robinson, Chris Olave, and Gabe Davis. I would have said Robinson and Olave. But if you did not start Robinson, I would say Olave and Davis because I don't think T. Higgins is going to play. Yeah. All right, this is from Evol1.

I think this guy is from New Zealand. Pick one. Deep leagues here. Jaden Reed, Sky Moore. Jaden Reed at the Raiders, Sky Moore at the Vikings, Wandale Robinson at the Dolphins. Go Wandale. I'm between Reed and Wandale, but I'll go Wandale.

There's going to be a lot of garbage time in that game. Yeah, for the Dolphins. This is from gold number 97. Dear Sean, Roger Pierce and Daniel. Come on Schneier. You can get all different James Bond characters. Hey,

there we go. I figured you would be like James Bond actors, not characters. I figured you were gonna be like Daniel. Okay. Daniel Jones. So who are Sean, Roger?

All right. So unfortunately I had Dobbins. I'm off to a one and three start. I've been thinking about offering Jefferson up for some players. Do you think it's better to look at a top tier running back? Maybe Eckler because he's struggling at RB2 or to target a couple of good starting players instead? P.S. Movies are clearly better than TV shows.

No, don't at me, Dan. No, no, movies are clearly better than TV shows. No, no. Don't at me, Dan. No, no. They're not better. Why would I want two and a half hours to tell a story when I have 10? It doesn't make any sense whatsoever. So I'm just going to nip that one in the bud. I'm also going to tell you this. If you have Justin Jefferson on your team, I don't care what position you're in right now.

You're not going to get to the position of winning your league by trading Justin Jefferson. I will stand by this. There is no trade I can come up with that. Okay. McCaffrey, you want to talk about McCaffrey? Fine. Now we can talk outside of McCaffrey. I can't find a trade. That's going to make me happy here. And I know you're not winning right now and you're trying to win right now, but you're compromising your future. The goal is to win the championship. You won't win this championship without Jefferson. So you need to find a different creative way, something like, you know, go for McLaughlin or is it McLaughlin or McLaughlin? I still haven't gotten this pronunciation, right?

McLaughlin. McLaughlin on waivers and try to win, you know, try to win a week with him being your RB2 or your flex, but trading Justin Jefferson to me, just, it never makes sense. So maybe you guys have a different advice, but my advice is don't move Jefferson. Well, you can trade Jefferson for, it's got to be something extremely significant. Like I was on a radio show this morning and this was prior to the injury news, but it was Jefferson for Amon Ross, St. Brown and Tony Pollard. And so that's a fair trade, you know, to get two legitimate stars for the best receiver in the game. I think you could certainly approach the Jamar

Chase fantasy manager and say, I will give you Jefferson for Chase and something at this point because Chase is clearly struggling. You're turning Jefferson into that type of scenario. Would you want to do that, Jamie, at this point where we're at with Burrow Chase and that injury situation? Let's just say, again, Jamar Chase

and somebody that was drafted or you know let's let's say alvin kamara you know so no you would do that i would not i would not do that if if my running back situation is awful i would absolutely do that now i'm not doing let's get an rb2 that like that's not the the goal the goal is to get a a rb1 and i think kamara can be an rb1 based on his uses in the passing game. Not that he's going to get 13 catches every week, but he can be a five-catch guy every week, and that's a star. Again, if I can get Jamar Chase and

Alvin Kamara for Justin Jefferson, I'm doing it. I can't do it. I don't know, Jamie, if you noticed, but I just, as we were speaking, this conversation inspired me. I just posted a message in our IDP League, who wants Justin Jefferson because I am interested in trading him.

At least see what kind of offers I can get. I don't like my team. I have Joe Burrow. I'm dying there. It's not working. I have Alexander Madison, which feels like a ticking time bomb. You had said this, and this is not the first time you brought this up. You had said this a couple of weeks ago, maybe, maybe a week ago, at least about, you don't

like your team in this league. And, and you mentioned about training Jefferson. So when you said this, I went and looked, I have a big, I have a lot of depth at wide receiver. And I was like, I don't think I can make a package to, to make it fair for you to give you Jefferson because I'd be stripping down what my team is, you know like I have Kamara I have uh but my receivers are like it's like Waddle and Thielen and Marquise Brown and there's somebody else what about okay so you wouldn't do like Bijan and Waddle for Jefferson and well you wouldn't do Bijan and Waddle would you do Bijan

and Waddle for Jefferson? In that league, no. Okay, so if I threw in another player, maybe. But I think, okay, so the way I'm approaching it is Jefferson is getting me, I'm going to guess 24 points a game. I'm going to pencil him in for that rest of the season. I will look at another one of my starters, and I may be getting 8 to 10 points per game in full PPR. So if I turn Jefferson into two players,

I want them to average about 34 points per game in full PPR. So if I turn Jefferson into two players, I want them to, to average about 34 points per game. So two guys who can score 17 points per game or more, that's kind of, even then you're kind of going to break even right on quarterback because, uh, yeah, yeah,

maybe it's okay. Maybe I'll try to aim a little bit higher, but non quarterback, I guess that's my issue with this whole thing. Like I was, I'm in a 16 team league, which is hard to find any quarterbacks in the waiver wire. And I have Joe Burrow. He's killing my team. I've been offered Darren Waller, Mike Evans, and Justin Fields for Travis Kelsey. And

I'm having a tough time myself pulling the trigger, even though I know it will help me to some degree. I hate the trades where I give up the guys who win you the leagues, Travis Kelsey, you know, Justin Jefferson, Christian McCaffrey. Like I want these guys for the playoffs and I don't want to just get to the playoffs, limp my way there and then have no team that can compete for a championship. I get it. Right. And I think to Dan's point, you know, it's not just Jaleel McLaughlin this week.

We've, we've now gone right. I mean, Javante Williams doesn't play. We've now gone, this is three weeks in a row where someone has emerged. Jerome Ford, Devon HN and Jaleel McLaughlin at that position, you know, and that's not including the receivers that we've had come up across the, the last several weeks. So, you know,

you can, you can certainly try and tweak your team. And again, if you're coming into this week, you're one in three, you're two and two, if you have a crappy roster, certainly on four,

you got to make some changes at some point. But if you're, if you are two and two and you like your team, like, don't just be trying to trade, trade. Yeah. So Don F says, Adam, would you do Justin Jefferson for Eckler and Nico Collins?

And I think I would because I don't really think Eckler is much worse, if worse at all, than Justin Jefferson. I mean, we haven't seen Eckler in a while. There's no way I'm trading Justin Jefferson for an already injured Austin Eckler. He's going to be back. He's going to be back. He's got the bye week. If you want to take the injury approach fine but i think austin eckler and justin jefferson after week one i mean like

eckler was just as good right eckler i still think eckler's eckler so i would i would do a deal for eckler and and a start and i guess the question becomes when it's when you're talking about a player like nico collins do you think this is going to be consistent so if you think it's going to be consistent or at least close to consistent, then you're making that type of trade. Yeah, but still, I mean, Eckler scored 25 points in week one. I think he's going to catch a ton of passes, especially with Mike Williams out.

He's still, Eckler to me, if he comes back and he's healthy, he's still possibly the best player in fantasy. I mean, it's hard to be better than McCaffrey, but Eckler's still Eckler to me. Now the injury could change that. You have to make your own decision about buying an injured player

because I get it. Sometimes they don't come back the same, especially high ankle injuries could be a problem. So maybe I should cool off a little bit. That's a good point. All right, let's go to this one from Kevin from Antarctica.

Dear Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo. Wow, Ninja Turtles. I'm doing great today on these. Yeah, who's your favorite? That's about as easy as it gets. I thought those were artists. That was like level easy. Who's your favorite?

It's obviously Raphael, right? I don't really know Ninja Turtles that well. Leonardo's the best? Whatever the pizza, the guy who ate pizza. I like the pizza guy. Michelangelo? That's Donatello.

No, it's Michelangelo. Michelangelo's the pizza one? Michelangelo is a party dude. Well, first of all, they all eat pizza, but that's Michelangelo. Donatello's, nobody likes Donatello. All right, 12 teams. He's the one with the stick, right? Mm-hmm.

Yeah, he's got the worst weapons, got nothing going on. Perpetually single. 12 team, two-point PPR. Would you trade CeeDee Lamb and Dalton Kincaid for Christian Kirk and Mark Andrews? Two-point PPR, huh? CeeDee Lamb and Dalton Kincaid for Christian Kirk and Mark Andrews. Two-point PPR, huh? Lamb and Kincaid for Kirk and Andrews.

Yes. Yeah? All right. I don't know. We have a four-game sample size of CeeDee Lamb kind of being a little bit of a, I don't want to say bust, but struggling. And you're getting the tight end, too. And Christian Kirk's been awesome. You know what?

I take it back. I'm in on this deal. You convinced me. I think the biggest factor here is that I'm not as high. I think the Lamb, I may be overrating Lamb based on preseason. Well, he hasn't been bad or anything, but he is playing, I'm noticing,

like 75% or 68% of his snaps from the slot. Yep. And he's got a much lower ADOT. The whole offense has a lower ADOT. The whole offense is the reason why I'm falling back on this one. This is what I expected from Mike McCarthy. I don't know what that means because I don't really think their offense, they've scored 30 or more points in three of, well, sorry,

they do have all the defensive touchdowns. No, no. The Giants game, they had two special teams of defensive touchdowns. I know, but they didn't have the ball that much. Their offense has not been that bad. They're getting their line back. The line should help. The line will help. We'll see.

All right. This is from Droop1223. Grade the trade. Give David Montgomery and Keaton Mitchell. Get Jonathan Taylor and Zach Moss. three grade the trade give david montgomery and keaton mitchell get jonathan taylor and zach moss so montgomery for taylor essentially um uh yeah i like it it's kind of a sneaky upside though if you trade for taylor and moss of taylor getting traded and then you have two starting running backs true i don't even think about that not that i think a trade is going to happen in season but that Taylor and Moss of Taylor getting traded, and then you have two starting running backs. True. I didn't even think about that.

Not that I think a trade's going to happen in season, but that is interesting. This is Ron Burgundy from San Diego. 12-team Superflex PPR start three receivers and two other flex. Team A gets Burrow and Cup. This is Dynasty. Team B gets Stroud, and it's Superflex. Burrow and Cup. This is Dynasty. Team B gets Stroud, and it's Superflex.

Burrow and Cup. Team B gets Stroud, Garoppolo, and Zay Jones. Seems like the league is in a bit of an uproar over this. Yeah, that's a horrible trade. Oh my God. It's very much overvaluing Stroud in the moment. Yeah, very much overvaluing stroud in the moment yeah very much overvaluing stroud in the moment burrow has another five what does burrow have how many years left does burrow have yeah a long time and cup probably has uh another year of being i don't want to say elite but you

know how many how many times do we need to watch and i don't think this is definitely going to happen with stroud but it's happened enough in nfl history that how many times do we need to watch? And I don't think this is definitely going to happen with Stroud, but it's happened enough in NFL history that how many times do we need to watch a quarterback look unbelievable in his first eight, nine, 10 games, a rookie, or even a first season, and then completely regress once defense coordinators have film on him. It's happened with Davis Mills, not to a larger extent, but it's happened with a lot of different quarterbacks. Yeah.

But how many times has it happened? Arnold. Who? Donald had a nice start with the Jets. Not like this. Not like this. Nothing's like this. I agree with that.

He's having an historic start. CJ Stroud. He's having an historic start without the turnover. But would it shock you if a year from now, this time, Joe Burrow is a clear cut QB one. Oh, you're not making this. This isn't about making this trade. This is more about CJ Stroud. I don't think he's going to turn into a pumpkin.

I think he's got the goods. That is the third time today on Friday that Dave or Jamie has said turn into a pumpkin. And I love the Halloween festivity. Grant has a question from Apple Podcasts about he wishes he could turn off the projections because they kind of mess with his mind, Jamie, when he's going between rankings and projections. So what's your advice? Because they're different. Sportsline does the projections. Dave, Jamie, Heath

do the rankings. What's your advice for people in terms of balancing those out? I mean, I'll always tell people this whenever they ask. If something has given you success, so if you've been looking at the projections and they've been the thing that's helped you, then follow the projections. If you've been looking at the projections and they've been the thing that's helped you, then follow the projections. If you've been looking at the rankings and we've been the one that's helped you, our consensus rankings,

or one of us, myself, Dave, or Heath, then follow that person. If you're stuck, switch. If something ruined you, then switch. I'm obviously going to recommend our rankings because that's what we do, but it's totally up to you. So I get it. We throw a lot of things at people and different advice on the show, different advice on our HQ shows. So it could be sometimes a lot of holy cow.

It's a lot of information to process. But stick to one thing and if that's working for you, stay with it. All right. Last Apple podcast question comes from History Nick. And he said, Dan looks like George Costanza's dad. Remember that take? Somebody said that. What a horrible take. I can't believe you just repeated it. Bad take. Such a bad take. Such a terrible take. What do you look like, buddy? Why don't we get a picture of you on here? All right. This is better. This is better. Relax. I'm getting to this. Bad take. I don't watch the pod. I only on here? This is better. Relax. I'm getting to this.

Bad take. I don't watch the pod. I only listen. But I always thought that Dan would look like Kyle's cousin from South Park. Way worse. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?

I watch South Park. I know about Kyle's cousin. All right. This is a very there's a lot of reason. Listen, I'm not going to personally get offended by this, but some people in my position might get offended by this comparison, okay? And I won't be one of them. But either way, buddy, let's get a picture of you up on here, all right? Put yourself in front of a screen, all right?

If you take off the glasses and put a beard, it's actually kind of. I know, it's really, it's very close. Let's see it again. Move on, move on. Before I blow a gasket here. All on. Before I blow a gasket here. All right. Before I blow a gasket here. YouTube question.

Who's most likely not to give away Halloween candy? Adam, Jamie, or Snarky Dan? There's nothing Snarky about me. It's definitely Adam. I'll give away all the candy in the world. I love Halloween. You've done that before. No, I haven't.

That's Heath. Heath turns off the lights. Oh, Heath. Yeah, Heath hates Halloween. But didn Heath. Heath turns off the lights. Oh, Heath. Yeah, Heath hates Halloween. But didn't you go to like a friend's house for Halloween and like lift your house? By the way, if I had to guess, most likely on FFT to hate Halloween, Heath is the easiest guess in the entire world. He hates it, yeah. Such an easy guess.

Most likely to hate the whole festivities of Halloween. Yeah. Sometimes when I listen to Heath, I feel like he is like 20 years older than he really is. Some of his like old man, like angry on his lawn type of takes. All right. Let's move on here. We'll take a break when we come back. Dan, the cheater, fantasy cops did not cheat. And you did, though, did not knowingly cheat, did not knowingly cheat.

Whatever I'm about to find out about, I didn't know about, and I still don't know about. Well, you know, I don't think you can go to court and be like, sorry, I didn't know I wasn't allowed to run over that post. I'll explain. We're going to find out. It's probably some stupid little roster move. You already explained something. You don't know what you did.

Yeah, I don't, but it's probably some stupid little roster thing. It's not even cheating. Go on. All right, we'll be right back on Fantasy Football today. Did you know that across Ontario, utility damage happens 19 times a day? All right, we'll be right back on Fantasy Football today. the law. It's a step to keep your team and community safe.

We have the Bake Burger Dynasty League that Dan and Jamie and I and a few others from CBS are a part of. We raise a ton of money for St. Jude. And we have this very specific

rule about our two practice squad players. The practice squad players, and this is in the league rules, they are only allowed to be rookies. You don't have to use these spots. These spots are locked once the regular season starts. September 16th. That would have

been week two. I'm sorry, September 14th. Dan Schneier, I see. Oh, sorry. September 14th. Dan Schneier. I see he moved three players to the practice squad. He only has two there now. So I guess he, yeah, he got rid of Dwayne McBride. But in week two, you moved two players to the practice squad. That was illegal. You are not allowed to do that.

Those spots locked by the beginning of week one. Now, I can understand if you just didn't read the rules or something like that because that happens, but I definitely messaged the league about it. And we established this rule on FFT Dynasty when we created the league and you were on that show. So a blatant disregard for the rules. You are over the roster limit by two players. You need to make a move and stop cheating and screwing over the league. I deserve to have these practice squad players. Everyone else has them. I think I moved it

before week one. I think I moved it before week one. I have the date in front of me September 14th. You think CBS is lying to me? Okay. Tell Frank. Tell the ops crew or whatever. The product crew. CBS is lying. They have the date wrong. See how that goes. See how that goes. See how that goes.

So what do you want me to do here? I have to move these guys off the practice squad? And drop two players. No, I don't want to do that. It's not fair. I don't want to do that. You're over the roster limit. And you're not the only one, by the way.

I have to send a message to the league. And Schaefer, Schaefer the cheater, he had John Mechie in his practice squad. I was like, yeah, he's not a rookie. So a lot of people were backing him. I have two rookies there. Just let me like, yeah, he's not a rookie. So a lot of people were playing. I have two rookies there. Just let me keep them there. Let's make a trade. What do you want from Portland Sutton?

Your team's playing for next year. What do I have to do here? I have to drop some players to Adam? This is unbelievable. You have to drop two players. This is so unlucky. Meanwhile, you have to answer some emails. By unlucky, I mean it's not even unlucky.

It's just my fault entirely. Oh, wait. Actually, sorry. What? What? What do you want? Did I just drop a player when I didn't have to? Because I just dropped a player. Who'd you drop? Yes, you dropped Dwayne McBride. Yeah, who I didn't want anyway. You'll be fine. You'll be fine.

The Vikings dropped Dwayne McBride. You're good. By the way, what are the rules for tanking? Because I see someone just totally tanking in this league. Give me an update on the tanking rule. You can't start inactive. I would have to check on that. You can't start players on high. Because the guy who's in last has been starting total inactives.

I saw he had buys and stuff like that. Well, he donated a lot of money to St. Jude's, so he can do whatever the hell he wants. All right. He's got Caleb Williams next year. He's got one point more. Because I'm fully in tank mode now. All right.

Oh, really? Oh, boy. Well, you're not getting a 1-1. You're getting 1-2. Fantasy C. Oh, really? Oh, boy. Well, you're not going to get one-one. You're getting one-two. Fantasy Cops. This is from Joe from Pittsburgh. Dear Dave, Rick, Randy, and Hunter, those are wrestling references that Dave would get.

I'm sure you've covered something like this before, but in one of my leagues, a trade went through, a trade was approved, a trade was agreed upon, I guess the best way to say it, at 4 p.m. yesterday, Thursday, the day of the Bears-Commanders game. You started an active player. Look at you cheating. I did?

Who? You started Deontay Foreman. No, I just did it now after what he did. I just put everyone in my lineup. I didn't even know he was an active. I did that earlier this week. I saw him do it, Jamie, just before the week. Wow, Adam, you need to take control of this.

I do have to clarify the technical rules. I didn't even know what that rule was. I saw he was doing plenty. I think that's on me. Come on. Take control of your seat. Trust me. This is just doing what everybody else was doing.

All right. I think that's on me. I'll take responsibility for that. Anyway. Good. Joe made a trade or a team made a trade. Trevor Lawrence for DJ Moore happened Thursday at 4 o'clock p.m. The commissioner did not push the trade through

prior to kickoff. As you know, DJ Moore had himself a game, and the eager manager receiving him thus did not get to play him. How should this be rectified? I had a couple ideas myself, but I'm not the commissioner, and I figured some input from a few experts

would be better. So easy. Why didn't the commissioner approve the trade? Approve it, give him DJ Moore for week five, and give him the points. He made the trade at four o'clock, give him the points, right? Yeah.

Perfect. All right, this one is from Von. Dear Colt, Vince, and Arch. Come on, easy. Colt, Vince, and Arch? Mannings? Texas quarterbacks. Oh, Arch Manning, Colt, Vince, and Arch Mannings? Texas quarterbacks.

Oh, Arch Manning, Colt McCoy, and Vince Young. Vince Young, yeah. We have one league mate asking for a fab refund. He accidentally bid $4 on the Bears DST. He meant to bid $4 on the Commanders DST. He would have lost the bid anyway. The Commanders went for $5. We're in year 21

and would like the fantasy cops to help us establish precedent for mistakes. He also picked up Sam Howell and then he immediately dropped the Bears on Wednesday morning. So we have facts backing up his claim that this was a mistake. Do we refund him?

If he accidentally typed 44, would we refund him? And question number three, how much of an idiot is he? I do not read my answers. He wanted to pick up the commanders but hit the bears instead? Yeah. And spent $4 out of $100?

I assume. I don't know. I think you're just stuck. This is not really something to cause us to think about. Yeah, I think you're just stuck. Like, well, this is not really something that causes us to think about. Yeah, I think you're stuck with the player. If he bid 44 instead of four, I still wouldn't give it back. Just a bad mistake.

It's part of the game. And three, he's a really big idiot to answer your question. I don't agree with you guys at all. Surprise, surprise. Really? You want to give the money back? I do. I think if you can prove that it was a mistake, because we're establishing a precedent here. So you don't want to be like, well, it's only $4.

It's no big deal because then you get into a gray area. What is a big deal? True. You want to establish a precedent. And I think Jamie, as commissioner, I think if someone made a mistake with fab like that, I, I, knowing you, I think you actually would refund them the money. If it was, if it was an egregious mistake, then I would, I agree with you. You don't want to, you know, go have, you know – okay, this is a minor mistake. This is a major mistake. We're going to have some gray area. But you have to have some gray area, and that's what life is.

And so if he made a mistake by clicking the wrong team and still putting in the fab amount and then realizing his mistake and dropping it, the team the next day, like, I'm sorry. You just made a mistake, and you got to live with it. Yeah, I think it's a little different when you drop a player by mistake and you hit the wrong thing next day. Like, I'm sorry, you just made a mistake and you got to live with it. Yeah, I think it's a little different when you like drop a player by mistake and you hit the wrong thing or whatever you hit the trade, you try to hit counter or reject

and you hit accept and you say, oh, no, no, no, I didn't mean to do that trade. Like that's big. That's impactful. If you screw up $4 on FAB for a defense, like I'm sure he's not

the first person who's made a mistake. The other people like that who have made minor mistakes just probably haven't said anything. I just got a text message from Scott Fish. He wants to know if I'm interested in any players on his team for Justin Jefferson.

Oh, baby. The only trade I would consider, I wouldn't do it. He doesn't have a great team, is Tony Pollard and Nico Collins. But I just, I don't think I can do it. I wouldn't do that. What do you want for me? You want Bijan and Waddle?

Yeah. Bijan and Waddle for Jefferson. Yeah. Think about it. Think about it. All right. Uh, next.

Well, you said you'd give me something else. What else? What are you giving? I'll come back to that. One more fantasy cops here. This is from, um,

I can't believe grown men act like this. Uh, I sat my tight end, Darren Waller, on Monday night, leaving that slot blank in order to get a better waiver priority by half a point. I already had the win in hand by a wide margin, so this wasn't collusion to let someone else win. This would have given me the number two waiver priority over the manager I just destroyed,

who would now have waiver priority number three. The manager I destroyed stated that it's an unwritten rule that we must have a full lineup and that he should have the number two waiver spot. I told the commissioner I'd be happy to go by whatever ruling or changes the commissioner made. The commissioner stated that it is a longstanding, unwritten rule, but there's nothing he can do about it.

The other owner, the other manager, threw a childlike fit on the league's chat, and then he proceeded to drop Keenan Allen, the knight of waiver wires, in protest, basically throwing the league off balance in favor of whoever was able to pick up Allen. Was I wrong, or is the other manager being a child? How would you have handled it as commissioner?

Signed, I can't believe grown men act like this. P.S. We are all friends in this league. There are no hard feelings. I just want to bust this chops and play the audio of your ruling. P.P.S. You guys are great. Love the show. P.P.S. P.P.P.S. If you want to know how this ended, the commissioner caved to the childlike

antics, gave me the Darren Waller points, moving me to the number three waiver wire manager, waiver wire spot and the other manager to number two. Waivers went through. I somehow still got the player that he wanted, even though I was supposed to be behind him. Then he reached out to me and said I was good to give him

the player he wanted for the player he picked up in the first round of waivers. I don't understand. So anyway, what would you have done here? What an absolute mess. They are all friends, or maybe they were all friends. It would probably be a we're all friends situation if I was involved. And look, I've had experience with this in my league as commissioner with somebody throwing a hissy fit that almost threw off the league. We had just to make a long story short, there was one time in our auction league where we had two people or three people calling in on the phone and the auctioneers on the phone.

And somebody bid 26. The auctioneer didn't hear it. The big close at 25 and the person who was at the draft through a hissy fit and didn't let us reopen the bid, got his laptop, started to walk toward the door, threatened to quit mid auction. And you cannot afford to have anyone quitting. You know that if you've been in an auction league, we caved, it was the biggest mistake of my life as a commissioner. I'll never regret it. I'll never live it down. And don't be that guy as a commissioner. Do not cave to babies. Do not let them have their way. They want to cry. If they want to throw a hissy fit, drop Keenan Allen, just use your commissioner powers, put Keenan Allen back on his roster, lock his roster, start the players that week, lock that player out of the league. He's not my friend anymore.

He's a baby. No, I am still actually friends with it. No, no, no. I am still actually great friends with the baby in my league who was one of my best friends. And I was, I was a groomsman in his wedding. Still a great guy, just a baby in fantasy. Um, also a spite drop guy. So you can't let bait. He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he,

drops like crazy. You can't, he'll just cut a guy Sunday night. You cannot let these guys, the babies win. Okay. This guy threw a hissy fit drop keenan allen don't reward that behavior okay you deserve the second waiver wire you are allowed to bench players there's no rule i guess it's an unwritten rule in your league change that there's nothing wrong with that i don't think you should be if you want to like if you're at the end of a fantasy season and you guys want to set up a matchup for the playoffs do you guys believe that you should start you can't uh bench and start certain players i don't know where you guys are on that, but I feel like it's a similar situation. No.

I don't even know what you were talking about right now. Okay. Okay. I lost you both there with that rant, but I was trying to think of a way to get Justin Jefferson from out of me too. So I was thinking Jefferson and Madison for Bijan and Waddle. Tempting. Let me think about it.

Let me think about it, too. I'm not committing to it. I think I like the Jefferson side. Yeah. What's your record? Two and two, but my team just catching fire right now. God, I suck. I'm starting Garoppolo this week. Gross. All right. Let's get

to the emails here. We have a lot of emails. We don't have a ton of time today because Dan has to leave. He's golfing. It's my off day. Just to remind everyone, I am off on Fridays, one of my only off days. So, yes, I am golfing, while also taking the time to do the podcast,

which I love. You have some life. I know. I know. It's a nice life. All right, this is from Brian in Iowa. Which running back would you trade? I need an upgraded wide receiver. Who would you trade

and who would you try to get? Mostert, McCaffrey, Stevenson, or Taylor? Who would you try to get? Who would you trade from that group and who would you try to get? Mostert, McCaffrey, Stevenson, Taylor. Wait, what do you mean? I mean, at this point, the two most tradable assets to me, because you're not trading McCaffrey unless you're

getting something amazing return, would be Mostert and Taylor. And I think for your team, if you could turn Jonathan Taylor right now into top tier player, that's the right move to make. Mostert would be the same thing, but I don't think a lot of people are going to look at it and say, I want to have Mostert for what you're asking in return because you can see what's happening in Miami with Devon Achan. So if you can turn Jonathan Taylor before he steps on the field this weekend and may not be the same guy or may get traded and my situation might be not as ideal, then that's the type of move I would be making. So I would be looking to get a top 10 receiver for him.

I would be looking to get a running back that was somewhat of similar value or has a chance to be of similar value. But yeah, those would be the two guys. I think it's a strong take by Jamie. I would, and I, and it makes a lot of sense. I would lean, I'm fine with that if you want to make a big splash play, but I would lean toward trading Mostert. I think Mostert is at the peak of his value right now. Jeff Wilson will be back at some point. They like Jeff Wilson. They trust Jeff Wilson. Mostert's fumbling the football. He's losing red zone touches to a chain. He still has

a ton of points, fantasy points. And if you look at the rankings, he's still up there. And so, and you know, we have him, I think he has him as a top 12 guy this week. If I heard on the Thursday podcast, right. So he still,

you know, can help somebody right now, but I don't know if that's going to be there in week 10. I think he's going to fade pretty fast in fantasy football. Let me listen to this trade off. I just got for Justin Jefferson. Okay. Drake London and Damien Pierce for Justin Jefferson.

Oh, that's so disrespectful. It was immediately withdrawn. I think he realized it's not going to get it. From Scott Fish? I'm not going to say who. Can you guys fantasy cops this? Because we had an offer.

Someone has his own bowl. I'll just say that. Fantasy cops this one real quick. Somebody offered Cole Komet and a third round pick in Dynasty for a first round pick. Is that a fair offer? Cole Komet and a third roundround pick in Dynasty for a first-round pick. Is that a fair offer? Cole Komet and a third-round pick.

For a first-round pick in Dynasty. Is that a fair offer? No. Right? Isn't that so easily no? Oh, you don't think it's that bad? I think it's an easy no. But Komet, I mean, look, if you need a tight end right now, if you're trying to win right now, Komet might be a starter.

All right, let's go. Let's move on here. Joe, half PPR, pick two. Waddle, Ridley, Brees Hall. Brees Hall and Waddle. I'll go Waddle, Ridley. From Nathan, pick two running backs, two receivers, and a flex.

Cup, Chase, Waddle. Camara, ETN, Montgomery, Kyron Williams. So pick two receivers. Cup, Chase, Waddle. Cup and Chase. Pick two running backs. Camara, ETN, Montgomery, Kyron Williams. Camara and Montgomery.

I'm between Camara for sure, and it's between Montgomery and Kyron for me. I'm going to lean Montgomery. Then pick a flex. Waddle, ETN, Kyron. Waddle. Kyron for me. I'm going to lean Montgomery. Then pick a flex. Waddle, ETN, Kyron. Waddle. Kyron. From Nilesh.

Who do I start this week? Mostert, A-Chan, Cook, or Pollard? Mostert, A-Chan, Cook, or Pollard? James Cook? Yeah, A-Chan. I would go with A-Chan, Cook, or Pollard? James Cook? Yeah, A-Chan. I would go with A-Chan. Wait, wait. Pollard was in there too, right?

Oh, yes. One of Pollard. Honestly, I'm torn between going A-Chan over Pollard. I would think I would actually lean A-Chan. I think A-Chan's going to have an insanely big week against the Giants. The Giants cannot stop pin and pull gap, power gap concept runs. A-Chan's going to be out in space just crushing them at the second level. I got another trade offer

from Dave Richard. I would give up Jefferson, Jawan Johnson, Jeff Wilson, Devin Singletary, and Geno Smith. They cannot just make a simple trade. Never can. This is a five for five. I would get Brandon Ayuk, CJ Stroud, Christian Watson,

Brian Robinson, and Pat Fryer. Not a chance. You need an elite player if you're giving up Jefferson. Agreed. This is from David, and I think we got a good buy low here. Should I be worried about Aaron Jones? And if so, should I flex Pickens or Gabe Davis for him? Don't do that.

I would not be worried about Aaron Jones. I just don't know if Aaron Jones' top-end value will be there like we thought. From the simple standpoint of, A, Jordan Love has looked better. So I don't think they just have to sit there and hand the ball off 55 times. B, the offensive line is a little bit of a concern. And so will some of the rushing production, which I think would have been a huge

potential for Aaron Jones, be as high. But no, I don't think you're in a vacuum. No, I would not worry about Aaron Jones. Alright, next email. Again, the email address, by the way, I don't know if I said it. It's fantasyfootball at cbsi.com. That the letter i from justin a couple hours before the game last night i traded dj moore for jaylen waddle did i make a horrible mistake yes no i don't think it was a horrible

mistake you would you would prefer more over waddle? Of course, you just have to play one game. That's all we do. In the moment, yeah, it's going to cost you this week for sure. It'd be an even bigger mistake if it was to the manager you were playing this week. That would have been an even bigger mistake. But no, I'd like to trade long-term. I've got to go through this, but DJ Moore really has been one of the most streaky players in fantasy football. I know. Year after year, you have these patches where he looks like the most amazing must-start player,

and then it's, what is wrong with DJ Moore? I'm never drafting him again. And I just don't trust Justin Fields to pass this well. I just don't. I know it's two games and I didn't think it was going to happen,

but I would rather have Waddle than Moore. I'm going to try to trust the process a little bit here. I think from the second part of your statement, I would agree with. If you don't want to trust Justin Fields to throw this way, then that's fair. But the streaky part, it's also this is the best quarterback he's probably – That's what I was going to say, yeah.

I don't even know if I agree with that. I mean – Oh, come on. I don't – Justin Fields two ago, looked like such a bad quarterback that everyone was saying, they're going to get Caleb Williams, and it's over for Justin Fields. Now, after facing the Broncos

and a defense that cannot defend the deep ball at all... Go back and read his schedule. We just read it earlier this morning. I mean, it's as easy as... Go to his career. Just go to his whole career. He's never been a good passer. These are two of the three best games he's ever had.

I'm not there yet. You're talking about his whole NFL career or his whole career as a quarterback? No, as a college player. I'm not writing him off. He's still young, but I'm not there yet. We can go based on that, though. I'm not convinced yet that Justin Fields is a good quarterback. No, that's fine.

But I'm still going to say this is the best quarterback he's ever had because he had crappy, crappy quarterbacks. It's the most talented quarterback he's ever had. It might be the best. This is a difference here, right? It might be the most talented quarterback he's ever had. It might be the best. Okay, this is a difference here, right? It might be the best quarterback that he's ever had. It doesn't mean it'll be the most prolific quarterback that he's ever had.

I don't think the Bears will end up throwing for more yards and touchdowns this year than some of the previous Carolina teams did. And that's always like a big thing. It might not be far off, though. I don't know. Did he have that one year where they threw the ball? They had the second most pass attempts in the NFL or something.

They had some crappy backup quarterback. But that's the point. Right. But he doesn't, he's probably not going to throw that much. That's what I'm saying. All right. Well,

anyway, belaboring the point. Well, I mean, look, I think he is going to throw that much because their defense is that bad. It's a question of, can he keep the offense in rhythm?

Like he has the past two weeks as he turned a corner as a quarterback learning, you know, more time in the system, more time with the report with DJ more. That's where I'm at with it. And I'm kind of torn. He looked good last night.

Offensive lineman back last night. I mean, you're seeing, you're, you know, I don't, I don't know if it's necessarily a distraction. You're buying in.

And now you're going to say that chase Claypool not being there is good for him? Well, no, but I think what we saw, you know, Dave brought this up, which, you know, it's hard to argue with based on what's happened, but more routes run for Cole Comet without Chase Claypool on the field. You know, so you're seeing probably the same thing would be my guess with DJ Moore. I know he said something prior to week three, prior to the Broncos game, about what Chase Claypool has done from maybe it, maybe it was a air yard. I don't know. There was something that he said, um, by comparison to the rest of the receivers. And so I don't know. I mean, look, it's all, it's all, it's been, it's been good, you know? So there is certainly a, we're riding a hot streak situation here with, with what DJ Moore has done. But I'll go back to what I said about Stefan Diggs and what I said to you, who's the next guy we're going to talk about? When I said Stefan Diggs

is probably the most talented receiver we're going to have. We're never going to see the numbers match up to it when he was in Minnesota. DJ Moore was the next guy. Right. Hopefully it helps. All right. Let's go to... Let's rapid fire. Rapid fire through the emails here. This is from Bo. Trade Camara and Montgomery for Eckler.

I still have James Conner. Make that trade? I would. All right, this is from Henry. Give up Gibbs and Nico Collins for James Cook and Michael Pittman. No. No.

From James. I have Sam Laporta on my taxi squad, and I have Hunter Henry and Njoku as my starters. I want to bring Laporta off, but I need to drop one in a dynasty league. Would you drop Henry or Njoku? I would drop Njoku because I think Henry would be picked up immediately

as somebody to start. Somebody would pick up Njoku more as a speculation ad, but at this point, you got to make that move because you got to start Laporta. From Cheryl. Unless you're not worried about this year. Addison or Mike Wilson? Wait.

For this week? Yeah. I'm going to go Mike Wilson, actually. Dallas Goddard or Ferguson? Ferguson. Yeah, Ferguson. From Dennis. Give up tyreek hill get olave waddle and kyron williams yes and i don't even like doing the one the three side of the one for three but kyron's role

that's just too much from nick trade Waddle and Montgomery, get Devante Smith and Khalil Herbert. No. From Clark, should I trade Pollard, Stevenson, Kirk, and Christian Watson? Pollard,

Stevenson, Kirk, and Christian Watson. For Tyreek Hill, Dobbs, and Damian Pierce I'd rather have the Josh Dobbs Romeo Dobbs who's the third one Tyreek Hill and Pierce

I think I still prefer the first side it's closer though I think I'm going to go with the Hill Dobbs Pierce side yeah I'd rather have that side, too. Joe from a city in Canada that is known for Lobster. That would be Lobsterville. Sit one in a PPR league.

Barkley, Kyron Williams, David Montgomery or Brees Hall? I have Hall ranked the lowest of that group, so that tells you it's a pretty good group. Hall's my star of the week. I guess if you're concerned about that and you want to trust Brees Hall, you could sit Barkley

just with the first game back from injury and see what he looks like. Okay. Is Barkley even a guarantee to play? No, but you'll know at that point. All right, from Brighton.

12-team Superflex League. Would you start pick two? Barkley, Mostert, Jaleel McLaughlin? Barkley and Mostert. Yep. Who do you like better, Mostert or Barkley? Barkley. Slight edge for Barkley.

From Tony, Jordan Love, CJ Stroud, or Russell Wilson? Jordan Russ. Russ for me. From Jim in Hatboro. Hey, LeChance, Teddy, Chambers, and Teddy. Two Teddies? I don't think so. No, you're thinking, you forgot Vern.

You know this movie, Jamie? No. Stand By Me. Oh, I actually have seen that movie. Great movie. Classic. With the leeches? That's all I remember. Yeah, I actually have seen that movie. Great movie. Classic. With the leeches? That's all I remember.

Yeah, it's a leech. I can start two at running back and one at flex and PPR. I have Swift, Connors, Hall, and Mostert. Who would you bench and would you start them all ahead of Garrett Wilson? No. I would bench Mostert and I would start Wilson over Hall and PPR.

Oh, wow. All right. Let's take a break. When we come back, Dan might not be here, but we'll finish with your YouTube questions. We're at

youtube.com slash fantasy football today. We'll be right back. All right, YouTube, it's your time to shine. Dan, you are, I know you're here overtime here,

so free to leave. Okay, I'm going to jump off gonna jump off have a good weekend guys don't forget to flush i will stay out of the sand all right i didn't even hear my insults rest of season swift or mixin oh um i'll say mixin just because of Swift's injury concerns. All right. Start one in non-PPR. Aaron Jones or Travis Etienne? Jones. Who should I flex?

In a 12th? Okay. There's a lot of people here. So we're just picking one first. So the two wide receivers should be... I think there are only two wide receivers here unless Raji writes. I think he just picking one wide receivers should be. I think there are only two receivers here unless Raji

right. I think he's actually asking for the flex. Oh of these guys. Yeah. Who's your flex Madison Watson

Addison Warren. It's either Madison or Watson. I would probably lean toward Madison just because of Watson's maybe a little inconsistent

potential play, but Watson has the most upset. We got a 4-0 team, CR. Half PPR, three receivers, one flex. Should I trade Mostert for Zay Flowers? I think you could do a little bit better than that, but if that's the best deal on the table,

not bad. Rest of season, Tua or Richardson? Tua. I trade it. I missed that one. Sorry. Full PPR. Stafford or Love?

Love. I don't think Higgins is going to play. But if Higgins plays, would you start Higgins over Laporta or Watson? I might go Laporta if there's no Monroe St. Brown. That would be Christian Watson. Great trade. Are you yawning on air? Yeah, I sure am.

Sorry. Tank Dell and Gabe Davis for Jonathan Taylor, half PPR. A-plus for the Taylor side. Yeah, good job. Don't trade for London and Pierce, LOL, even if you get Laporta. Okay, he's responding. I shouldn't have clicked on that one.

Sometimes they chat amongst themselves in the chat. Half PPR, D-B-R-E-N-D. No, I think that was your trade, right? Or no, that was... Oh, maybe. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Debo or Dobbs? Debo.

Houston DST against the Falcons the Colts DST the Patriots Colts get the Titans Houston I kind of like the Packers you can like the Packers that's not bad that would be my second favorite

which cards wide receiver should i start hollywood or wilson hollywood cousin earnest says enjoy the weekend see you sunday morning yeah you will thank you um what is this adam just let jamie drive man i guess because you're falling asleep. Oh, maybe. Adam, the type of guy to yawn on the air. Yeah. How long can I use moving as an excuse? It's been very tiring. Sunday. I'm about to empty my house out, which is not going to be fun.

Oh, that sucks. Hire someone. No, we have a pod being delivered to our house. No, you're making a mistake. You should hire someone. Need two. Ayuk, Nakua, or Mostert? I just have to move it to my driveway.

It's not very difficult. Yeah, all right. Get help. Get some friends. I would help you. If I lived in Florida, I'd help you. Thank you. Ayuk, would you make me wear shoe coverings?

No, we're tearing out our floors. Oh, okay. Perfect. Yeah, start two here. Ayuk, Nakua, and Mostert. Half PPR. Ayuk and Mostert. Okay. Nobody calls him Nakua, I feel. How'd I do?

I traded Ford and Richardson for James Cook. I already have Hertz. I didn't get enough. You think so? Yeah. Is it okay, though, to give up too much in a trade

if it makes... Like, to lose a trade on paper if it makes your team better? Yeah. But I'm not... Yeah. You would definitely rather have Hertz than Richardson, right? I would rather have Hertz than Richardson, of course.

Yeah. Rest of season, McLaughlin or Warren? Warren. Pirine or Latavius, half PBR, for week five? Pirine or Latavius, half PBR, for week five? Pirine. What if Javante plays?

Still Pirine. Okay. Latavius doesn't score. If Latavius doesn't score, you're not going to get any value out of him. One more question here. Giving up Amari Cooper, Garrett Wilson, and Jalen Warren. Getting Cup, Javante, and Addison. I like it.

How do you know it's Javante? Could be Jameis and Williams. Could be Jamal Williams. Could be. Cup, Jay Williams, and Jordan Addison, or Cooper. Giving up Amari Cooper, Garrett Wilson Wilson and Jalen Warren essentially to get Cooper Cup
