00:00Let's talk wide receivers now.

00:04Hey, Mike Evans, man, we have talked about Mike Evans leading up to the start of the

00:09season first week and here he is at 8,300.

00:13Right behind him is Rushie Rice, but a drop off of $1,000, 7,300.

00:19Then there's Malik Neighbors, who you had mentioned played against a softer secondary

00:23as you will.

00:24So maybe there's some recency bias there last week, 7,100 on Neighbors.

00:28Notice Godwin, 6,600, a pivot away from the top.

00:31And then there's Jawan Jennings at 5,200, where opportunity is abound.

00:36Joe, what do you like?

00:39Look, Evans is always intriguing, but I think the interesting pivot is down to 6,600 for

00:44Godwin.

00:45Same team, same offense.

00:47Maybe a better corner matchup too.

00:48Godwin out of that slot has been terrific, if you look at what he's done so far this

00:52year.

00:53And in back-to-back games, he has been a target hog.

00:57That's what you're looking for.

00:59He had eight targets, two weeks in a row, caught seven in week one, eight in week two.

01:05Has a touchdown in both games as well.

01:07So he's been a tremendous return on investment.

01:09Can he go three weeks in a row?

01:11I think he can.

01:12And I think that move back to the slot has been exactly what the doctor ordered.

01:14So it's a really good move here by the coaching staff.

01:17Baker Mayfield's played fantastic.

01:18Jawan Jennings at 5,200, he's going to be highly rostered, but I don't think it's wrong.

01:22If you're looking for another guy who is even cheaper on FanDuel and on DraftKings,

01:27is Jordan Whittington, who is a big Splash Playmaker guy.

01:31You saw flashes of it in the preseason, and a lot of us were going, oh, look, did the

01:34Rams find another one of these Pukunukuit type guys out of nowhere that nobody, you

01:39know.

01:40If one organization is really good at identifying that type of underappreciated, undervalued,

01:45splashy player, it's the Rams at that position of wide receiver.

01:50So Demarcus Robinson, sure.

01:52Tyler Johnson, we'll see.

01:54But I think it comes down to a guy like Whittington, who is really cheap, and if he has that one

01:58big play or one big touchdown catch, could return investment.

02:02Rushdie Rice for 7,300.

02:04I think that's going to be a bit of a dogfight.

02:05I think you saw the awakening of the Atlanta Falcons offense this Monday night.

02:10They started to put things together.

02:12Everything's going to be just fine.

02:13It just took a little while.

02:15That first game, you had to shake the dust off.

02:16And look, the Pittsburgh Steelers are a good defensive team, and they always will be a

02:19good defensive team.

02:20And then Malik Neighbors, who I don't think is going to get 75 targets like he did last

02:24week, but I think he's going to get enough in this game where, once again, the volume

02:29is king, right?

02:30So Rice, Neighbors, Godwin, I think that's a really good place to live.

02:34And if you're looking for some cheap offset guys, Juwan Jennings, Jordan Whittington,

02:37I think are two guys that you want to circle as well.
