00:00
All right, let's go to the quarterback play here.
00:05
We've been talking about Lamar Jackson quite a bit here in this first hour, priced at $8,800.
00:09
Patrick Mahomes right behind him, $8,700.
00:12
Then Kyla Murray at $8,000 even.
00:14
Joe?
00:15
Yeah, some expensive quarterbacks this week.
00:17
Lamar, I would take over Mahomes at the same price just for the rushing equity.
00:21
So that's an easy one for me.
00:22
I would also be looking at Justin Fields this week too.
00:27
Fields is cheap again.
00:28
Once again, disappointing week one, but if you think about the rushing equity he does
00:32
bring against the Denver Broncos, a team that struggles against the run, and he has a whole
00:36
week to prepare as though he was the quarterback, he's just $5,400 on DK.
00:41
And for a tournament QB, this allows you to...
00:43
So the question is, how do you get to Lam?
00:45
How do you get to Al Monroe?
00:46
How do you get these big guys in your lineup?
00:47
Well, the way you do that is by fading a little bit of quarterback.
00:51
So Lamar's fine in cash games.
00:53
I think it's a really good investment.
00:55
You can put him and Henry and just control the Ravens offense today against the Las Vegas
01:00
Raiders.
01:01
Mahomes loves these big games.
01:02
He always shows up for them.
01:03
I would be excited about paying for Mahomes in cash.
01:08
Kyla Murray at 8K gives you more rushing equity, a little bit fewer dollar amount.
01:13
That's a good thing.
01:14
Jaden Daniels against the Giants for his home start.
01:17
Could be some nerves, sure.
01:18
But at the same time, I think it's a good investment.
01:20
And then 7,400 for Baker Mayfield is the oppo play.
01:22
So if you want to go into this, Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans, Al Monroe, St. Brown, kind of
01:27
stack that game here.
01:28
Jameson Williams, you got to go all in on this one.
01:30
It's not a bad look either.
01:31
I think that Detroit-Tampa game also has a lot of legs today in Week 2.
01:35
Speaking of that Detroit game, we are now at the tight end portion of the segment here.
01:41
We start with Sam Laporta, 7,900, and then Travis Kelsey at 7,400, right behind.
01:47
But I'm curious to hear what you have to say about a name at the bottom of the list that
01:50
we talked about.
01:51
I'm going to dig in there a bit more for some blocking responsibility, but I'll let you
01:54
take it from there.
01:55
Yeah, Sam Laporta at 7,900, another guy relatively quiet last week.
01:59
So I would expect the bounce back.
02:01
Week 2, the comeback week.
02:03
That's what we're doing here.
02:04
Travis Kelsey, 7,400.
02:06
I'm not worried at all about Kelsey's quiet first week either.
02:09
So both of these guys, a little expensive.
02:11
But there is some value here.
02:12
We talked about Trey McBride.
02:14
He's going to continue to see close to double-digit targets, I think, this week in another one
02:18
where I think it's going to be back and forth.
02:19
That's a good thing for fantasy value.
02:21
You want the games where both teams are going to push their end of the bargain in terms
02:26
of team total.
02:27
Look for those independent team totals, too.
02:29
It's going to tell you a lot about how to invest in DFS and some of the fantasy market
02:33
things you're looking at, too.
02:34
Greg Dortch is another guy you could probably throw in that grouping, too, had a good game
02:38
last week.
02:39
Evan Ingram at 5,900, another bounce back I'd look for him.
02:41
And Colby Parkinson at 4,800, saw a lot of targets in that game.
02:46
I like the over on his yardage.
02:48
We'll talk about that in hour two.
02:50
That's another guy, too, that I think is going to be a trendy pick, but I don't think it's
02:54
wrong.
