00:03 Of course, put us in your pocket,
00:05 take us with you wherever you go,
00:08 keep the conversation going,
00:10 @SportsGrid, @SportsGridTV,
00:13 because winning never stops.
00:15 If you wanna be smart, you need the information.
00:18 @SportsGrid, @SportsGridTV.
00:21 Joe Pizzeppia, you are the author
00:22 of the Fantasy Black Book series.
00:25 Folks, when you get a chance, go check it out.
00:27 It'll change the way you dominate.
00:29 It'll help you enrich yourself via your love of sports.
00:33 Now, building DFS lineups, you've been doing it all morning.
00:36 We're gonna continue to do it here,
00:38 but let's talk from wide receivers,
00:40 because a lot of people are in a panic.
00:42 I know plenty of people that reached
00:44 for the Cooper Cups early in their draft.
00:46 Oh, what do they do now?
00:48 You should not have done that.
00:49 Joe, let's start in Miami,
00:51 and let's start at the top, let's go.
00:53 - Well, we did our best.
00:54 We had so many public service announcements,
00:56 but what are you gonna do?
00:56 At the end of the day, people are gonna,
00:58 they're gonna, look, I get it, it's fun, right?
01:00 But winning is more fun.
01:02 This week, I think you're gonna win with Tyreek Hill in DFS.
01:04 I think that's a guy we talked about two of before.
01:07 Tyreek Hill is that player, 8,800 over on Fandle, 82 on DK.
01:10 We're talking about wide receivers to pay up for.
01:13 Tyreek Hill is worth paying up for.
01:14 You know the ball's going to him.
01:16 He had 170 targets last season.
01:19 Basically, Mike McDaniel says,
01:21 "Go ahead, try to stop him.
01:23 "I dare you," and the rest of the lead can't.
01:25 So why not go back to that?
01:26 Well, just so you know, too, you know,
01:28 this is also a week,
01:29 because there's so much value at wide receiver,
01:31 that you could actually pay up for Justin Jefferson as well.
01:33 Not in the same lineup, necessarily.
01:35 I mean, you could do it.
01:36 It's a little tricky,
01:37 but sometimes we fade those guys at the very top.
01:40 I wouldn't fade Jefferson, and I would not fade Tyreek Hill.
01:43 The roster percentage is gonna be high.
01:45 I don't care.
01:46 The target rate is gonna be very high as well,
01:48 so I wanna go there.
01:49 Another guy worth paying up for,
01:50 once again, in that same game that we talked about
01:52 when we discussed the quarterbacks, is Keenan Allen.
01:55 Keenan Allen's at 8K over on FanDuel, 7,300 over on DK.
01:59 I think this is a player, once again,
02:01 you know, the target volume's gonna be there.
02:02 The touchdown equity's a little questionable,
02:04 so if you wanna have a Herbert Allen lineup,
02:06 and then a Herbert Mike Williams lineup,
02:08 and then a Herbert Echler lineup,
02:10 and do it three ways that way, okay, that's fine.
02:13 There's gonna be points in this game.
02:15 Both these defenses are going to give up some points.
02:17 The total is 51 for a reason.
02:19 I think these defenses will get tired
02:20 in the second half as well,
02:22 and that's when things could really open up.
02:24 Another wide receiver to discuss too,
02:26 who is another top-tier guy,
02:27 I think at least in this week's matchup against the Colts,
02:30 is Calvin Ridley, a player we've talked about a lot
02:33 on this show in the last few weeks.
02:34 He has looked terrific in training camp with Trevor Lawrence.
02:37 You look at the price, it's really user-friendly this week.
02:40 On FanDuel, 7K.
02:42 On DraftKin, 6,500 on DK.
02:45 So you're in a position right now where you set it.
02:49 These prices come out, the market gets set,
02:52 the expectations might be low or a little bit unclear,
02:56 and then all of a sudden a big game happens,
02:57 and this could be the last time we see a pricing
02:59 quite this low on Calvin Ridley.
03:01 So let's take advantage of it.
03:02 I think Trevor Lawrence is gonna wanna use his new toy.
03:05 I think Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars
03:07 are gonna wanna put Hurton on the Colts,
03:09 and this is a big game for them.
03:10 And I know it sounds ridiculous 'cause it's week one,
03:13 but it's an individual game on the road
03:15 where I think the Colts are extremely vulnerable
03:17 without Jonathan Taylor,
03:18 with a rookie quarterback on their center
03:20 who's very inexperienced.
03:21 Get this win under your belt,
03:23 start the season on the right foot.
03:25 You're a playoff team last year.
03:27 If you're the Jaguars, you go out there
03:29 and you make a statement early on
03:30 that this division is yours now, it's not the Titans.
03:33 And if you do that,
03:34 Calvin Ridley I think is a big part of it, Matt.
