00:00 All right, so now let's move on to another quarterback, Vinny, that at least for the

00:07 time being, you're going to pass on at his average draft position, which is Dak Prescott

00:12 of the Dallas Cowboys.

00:14 And last year, pretty uneven, all things considered, 2,800 passing yards, still a top 20 quarterback

00:22 being drafted in fantasy, but I wonder for how much longer that will be the case, Vinny.

00:26 So I will ask you, should he be a top 20 quarterback this year?

00:30 Yeah, you look at Dak and then there's a couple of guys in that tier, right?

00:35 Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson.

00:36 We're not sure what to do with them, right?

00:38 They're somewhere in the middle.

00:40 This were disappointing last year in many ways with their production.

00:43 So those are the veterans there, but I'm not seeing things where I want to bump down Gina

00:47 Smith or Daniel Jones or Kirk Cousins after what they did last year.

00:51 I think there's reasons that they can build on what they did, right?

00:55 So these guys are going to have to do that much better to bridge that gap, to give you

01:00 the scoring that you're looking for at that position.

01:02 So that's the thing is when you get to certain groupings of fantasy football players, especially

01:08 quarterbacks, you say, okay, there's some value that I can get around or two later.

01:13 I'm going to go after that.

01:14 Look at Dak Prescott.

01:15 This was a run heavy team last year.

01:16 I know it will change a little bit, but it's Mike McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer.

01:20 You know, their history is still wanting to run the ball.

01:22 They're going to try to run and play defense behind it.

01:25 I don't know if they're going to just open it up and light it up with Dak Prescott, the

01:28 way you saw with Kellen Moore.

01:30 So I'd rather look again, that tier that I was talking about earlier, go after the Justin

01:34 Herbert, Trevor Lawrence, that those are the guys you want really with the big upside right

01:38 before don't wait too long to settle for a guy that might finish in the top 10 and he'll

01:43 be okay.

01:44 But I think I'm a little bit worried about Prescott ceiling when you have a lot of guys

01:48 around him that can deliver that.

01:50 And that's what I'm looking for a lot in fantasy ceiling over floor in a lot of cases.
