00:00Let's start with Tampa Bay.

00:04Now again, there's some injury situation here with their

00:06running backs, uh, you know, Bucky Irving, I believe is his

00:09game time decision going into this week.

00:11Um, he's looked pretty good.

00:12Rashad White has not.

00:13Uh, but George, if you're going to look at that waiver wire this

00:17week, as we begin here, uh, if you've waited this long to pick

00:21up Bucky Irving, I think you may want to wait another week.

00:24I don't know.

00:25It doesn't seem like he's at least a hundred percent.

00:27I would agree.

00:28It depends on, uh, your forward thinking here.

00:31Uh, listen, if you're thinking of, uh, at least somebody good

00:33to play Bucky this week, probably not.

00:36But if, uh, you know, you can probably, oh, it's past the,

00:39uh, for most leagues, the, uh, the fab anyway, but why bid on

00:42him next week if you're going to for free right now, assuming

00:44you have a guy in your roster, you don't care about the least.

00:47Yeah.

00:48That's, that's why I would take, cause I don't want, I don't

00:49want to bid, just for giggles here.

00:52He gets 70 yards on Sunday on a touchdown.

00:54Now all of a sudden everyone's bidding on him on a Wednesday

00:57night or whatever your league's, uh, waiver, uh, runs it.

01:00So that's why I would take them now.

01:02Yeah, that's fair.

01:03Uh, okay.

01:03So this is one actually that, yeah, I think it's a pickup,

01:06but I think the luckiest backup running back in the NFL this

01:11season is our next guy, Braylon Allen on the jets.

01:14I don't know, man.

01:15Like he's broken some runs.

01:16I think all the juice is going to, uh, to Brees Hall.

01:20And look, if you were, you're wise enough to play this guy

01:23and you're playing in some deep league where you played a flex

01:25or three quarterbacks, great.

01:26I don't know, for me, I, I, I still think in the end, anytime

01:30it's near the goal line, I think it's going to be Brees Hall.

01:32And how many times is Braylon Allen going to break these long

01:34runs or catch a ball and run it in for a touchdown?

01:37Uh, you got to own them obviously, because this is like

01:39a great handcuff to have for him, but I can't start him.

01:43I can't do it.

01:44I don't want to start him.

01:45You will be starting him next week, by the way, once the

01:47bye week start.

01:48So we got to remember that's coming as well here.

01:50I'll tell you what, I don't have Hall in any league that I know

01:53of, but if I did, I'd want to take Allen out, man.

01:56Cause he, this guy would be annoying me.

01:57He's just, he's taking away points from Hall.

02:00That's the way I would look at it.

02:01So he'd be annoying me here.

02:03So, uh, he's definitely a guy you want to claim.

02:05Same thing.

02:06We have to remember by start next week, we're

02:08going to need fillers.

02:09We're going to need guys to plug in here and Allen's

02:10a great filler.

02:11So is Irving, once again, if they're on your, uh, if they're

02:14on your wave away, if I had to rank these guys would be Allen

02:16above Irving right now, fairly easily.

02:18Uh, Jets schedule, by the way, opens up a little bit.

02:20Things should get a little easier as far as defenses

02:21they're playing here.

02:23Uh, Rogers looks like he is, uh, you know, at least 80% of the

02:26Rodgers, he was here.

02:27Wait till Gary Wilson gets going to here.

02:29So yeah, Allen should be picked up.
