Keenan Allen. You've gotten me off of him. I've been off him for a while. Sell high on
00:08
Keenan Allen. I think you can, uh, based upon name brand value, right? Uh, he had 11 targets
00:16
last week, so that's great, right? That's something that's appealing to most people
00:19
play fantasy football as it should be. Volume is king, right? But he only caught four of
00:22
them. So Caleb Williams wasn't exactly getting off to the best start. Uh, and I think that's
00:27
something to keep in mind. He's got Houston that Indy than the Rams coming up in this
00:31
schedule, but he doesn't look healthy to me. And I think that's the thing. He's been dealing
00:35
with some injuries coming in through camp. It seems to be lingering. They're lingering
00:39
this week to, I think at this point, he's like a 32 year old wide receiver who has got
00:43
10 years, uh, you know, in the bucket array. And I think that's enough where the known
00:49
entity, if you ask me who I'd rather have rest of season, but I'd rather have Brian
00:53
Thomas jr. Or when I rather have Keaton Allen and rather Brian Thomas jr. I think there's
00:58
upside there. I feel better about the quarterback play with Lawrence than I do about, uh, Caleb
01:02
Williams. And then the other guy, again, we have to sit and ask ourselves this question
01:07
is Christian McCaffrey. Christian McCaffrey, I think is a cell. You hope that he comes
01:13
back healthy. You hope that in a few weeks, he's Christian McCaffrey of old and maybe
01:18
he will be, but what does your roster look like at that point? Now, if you picked up
01:22
Jordan Mason, you can hold and just wait. That's fine. I think you have the insurance
01:26
policy to wait, but if you don't, and you went hero RB with Christian McCaffrey and
01:30
you don't love your depth, right? Let's say things are not working out for your running
01:33
back room. Christian McCaffrey still brings a lot of weight. Um, Christian McCaffrey is
01:39
going to be one of these players that I think you could still get more than you realize
01:42
for him. If you could pull off Derrick Henry plus for him, I think you pick that in a heartbeat.
01:47
I told you, I saw people trading him straight up for Brees hall before he went on the IR
01:51
this week. So you're not going to get that deal anymore. That deal is off the table.
01:54
Now that he went to the IR cause you know, he's going to definitively miss four weeks,
01:59
but think of it this way. He's going to be missing five weeks cause you already missed
02:02
one, right? It's already hurt you in week one. So for Christian McCaffrey, this is another
02:06
one where I think the name brand recognition gives you back more than you realize. And
02:11
I think the risk is going to be more than you want.
