00:00I got like DeMarcus Robinson, Joe, so let's start there only 39% rostered.

00:09Let's talk.

00:10Well, this is a guy that I drafted a lot of spots and we talked about at the end of draft

00:14season, like guys, you want to just stash on your bench.

00:17And the reason why is like, I saw a world where either cup or Pukatuku would be missing

00:21time early on in the month of September.

00:23And guess what?

00:24We're here in the month of September.

00:25It's two weeks into the season and Pukatuku is on the IR and somebody was going to get

00:29elevated and that most likely person wasn't winning him, although he is really fun and

00:33he might work a little bit today.

00:34But DeMarcus Robinson, I think is that guy.

00:36He had seven targets, caught four of them for 42 yards.

00:40It was a tougher game last week against Detroit, much better situation against the Arizona

00:44Cardinals.

00:45So the fact that he's still floating out there and available in about 60% of leagues is crazy.

00:49The Cardinals last year allowed the third highest PPR points per target to perimeter

00:53wide receivers.

00:55So he could be in a really good spot today as a streaming wide receiver.

00:58If you don't like what you have on your roster and you think that maybe, you know, you need

01:02a little bit more juice there, but a PPR worlds, I could see a six for 60 kind of day that

01:07puts you at 12.

01:09If he should give you a touchdown that puts you at 18, that's a really good day.

01:12So this guy should not be available in as many leagues as he is.

01:16So try to heed these warnings because remember when we told you last week, you could pick

01:20up Jordan Mason on free waivers on Sunday.

01:23How much did it cost you on Monday to try to go after him?

01:26Probably most of your budget, right?

01:27So be ahead of the curve.

01:29Sunday waiver wire is a great time to pick up players.

01:32Be proactive.

01:33He might be slipping through the cracks of your 10 team leagues.

01:35And if so, I think to Marcus Robinson should be rostered there too.

01:39You could drop the Jalen Polks of the world and guys like that you were speculating on

01:43or some third RB, take the guys that are going to play because for the next six weeks at

01:48minimum to Marcus Robinson is going to be a viable flex slash wide receiver three kind

01:53of guy.

01:54All right.

01:56Some good advice from Joey P it's in his blood.

01:59Let's go now to an unlikely source.

02:01Look at a dynamic player that's available in over half of the leagues.

02:04Joe, I'm talking about a player out in Denver.

02:07Really?

02:08What's up?

02:09Yeah.

02:10Look, I don't love the Denver offense, but if you look at the numbers for Bo Nix today,

02:14the Vegas is telling you it's going to be limited somewhere around 170 passing yards.

02:18Right?

02:19So that means that they don't think he's going to throw the ball a lot, which means a lot

02:22of running the football, which of Ante Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin.

02:25So Jaleel McLaughlin is really good at catching the football.

02:27So Bo Nix strength last year at Oregon was dumping the ball off to everybody and letting

02:31them run after the catch.

02:33I think you're going to see an offense a little bit more skewed that way after a ton of mistakes

02:37last week.

02:38One of the mistakes was so entertaining that the color commentator literally when he let

02:42go of the ball said, Oh no, as he throwed an intersection into triple coverage, I watched

02:49it back three times and it made me laugh every single time when they announced or did

02:54that.

02:55But Jaleel McLaughlin, again, available in 50% of leagues.

02:58You can see a universe where in PPR leagues, he becomes kind of a flex worthy guy.

03:04If the offense gets scaled back and I think it's going to Devon Bailey is out for this

03:08game.

03:09Courtland Sutton to me is an under, he's got a tough matchup against Joey Porter.

03:14So Pittsburgh sealer defense is really good.

03:15You got to run the football here and you got to take pressure off him because when TJ Watt

03:19is running all over chasing you, it's going to be a bad day for Bo Nix.
