00:00Now we know why the Green Bay Packers acquired Alan Lazard because Aaron

00:09Rogers really loved him there and now he loves him with the Jets. He basically has

00:14Garrett Wilson numbers but his name is Lazard, George. He's 37.9% owned in

00:19fantasy. He has 24 targets, 16 receptions, 206 yards. That's modest. He has three

00:26touchdowns on the season. Slide those over to Garrett Wilson and now

00:30you have a good Wilson season but I guess he just trusts Lazard more.

00:36I think it's chemistry. He knows where Lazard's going to be. I think

00:39Lazard and Rogers, you know, it's like he can just give him a wink, you know, and

00:44Lazard knows what to do, you know. They just trust each other. They play

00:48with each other for so long. That's why Lazard's there. Remember, this guy was

00:50benched last year. He was awful, god-awful because Rogers wasn't the

00:54quarterback. You know, but Rogers is back now. Trust him. He's his man and he does

00:58have a role. He is valuable. I do think points can be put up on the board and

01:02they score. They have to be. I think Minnesota's going to score some points. Not a ton

01:05but enough for fantasy owners here. Can the Jets keep up with that? So, I

01:10think they do get back here but one thing to remember here. Now, I haven't

01:14checked and I really should. What's the weather gonna be like in England? Usually

01:18they're known for their rain, right? 50% chance of rain, I'm being

01:23told by our man behind the glass, Sam Yarnell. If it's raining, we saw he

01:28didn't play well in it last week, right? Rogers didn't like it. Didn't like it, you

01:31know? So, we'll see what happens this week here. That being said, I think

01:35Lazard's a borderline. I have been a couple of weeks, he's not starting for me

01:38this week. Listen, I have other options I can play there. Maybe you don't. I'm

01:42not afraid to start him but I don't think he's anywhere near automatic. All

01:46right, now let's go back to the Jacksonville Jaguars. As I, you know,

01:50talked about last week, I was very much a buy low on these guys. They played well

01:54last week. They did not beat the Houston Texans. Tank Bigsby is another player

01:58that in a lot of these fantasy leagues, George, he is the guy that is being

02:02added and cut and added and cut and he is like the rotating player in fantasy

02:08football at this point. I would guess that he's probably owned in more leagues

02:11than not and I don't know. Look, the Jaguars are not going to the playoffs. I

02:15understand that but I think Bigsby is a startable player in a 12 team league.

02:20I think he's slowly eating into Etienne's touches here. Slowly. All

02:26right. Do I think he's startable? I have, once again, I'm starting probably

02:31in one league. Well, right now I am because I didn't think Brian Robinson

02:35of the Commanders was going to start this week. Now it looks like he, maybe

02:38it's gonna be a game time decision. So we'll see how that works out. If you do

02:42start them, you're gonna need touchdown deodorant. I don't think he's gonna get

02:46enough on his own without that touchdown to, you know, to be a double

02:49digit player for you. Could he get in the end zone? Sure, he could. I said, I

02:53think points are coming here. I think both teams are scoring, I think it's a

02:5627-24 game, Craig. So I think it's gonna go over its total. So I think he's

03:00gonna get, you know, at least a shot here. But without that deodorant, you're

03:04probably gonna be disappointed. When I say he's inching into Etienne's

03:07totals, that's fine. He's not there yet though. If you're starting, it's likely

03:11because of buys and injuries, not because you want to.
