00:00But let's start off with the quarterback position. Deshaun Watson, man, what is Cleveland going

00:09to do after this season? I understand that everyone's saying that there's like a cap

00:14situation and then they'll work it out and Cleveland will have a new quarterback next

00:18year and this will just go away like every other time. I mean, Cleveland had Brock Osweiler

00:21for a while too, don't forget. But George, 12-team league, Deshaun Watson should be cut.

00:29Is he a super flex starting quarterback? Can you cut him in a super flex league? No,

00:36you don't start, no quarterback gets cut. Every quarterback, every starting quarterback

00:39is taken in a super flex league. All right. You do need someone to cover during buys.

00:43I mean, you do simple math here. If you're in a 12-team league, 12 times two, it's 24

00:48quarterback start. There's only 32 theoretically. I mean, there's four teams, at least four

00:53teams that are without a quarterback during a bye week, right? Because not every team

00:57can have three. So no, you're not cutting Deshaun Watson, not in a super flex. He's

01:01not starting in a quarterback one league. Now in a super flex, could you have a third

01:05quarterback that you want to start over him? Sure. I mean, he's awful right now. He's just

01:10awful. Odds are you are still starting him and you're probably starting him this week.

01:15It is the Washington secondary. You know, I know they played great last week against

01:19Kyler Murray. Nobody saw that coming. We thought that'd be a big time shootout between Daniels

01:22and Murray. It happened for Daniels, did not happen for Murray, especially after that first

01:25drive here. So you're likely starting Watson this week, but in most weeks you want nothing

01:30to do with this guy. It should be just a matter of time until Winston plays. When do they

01:35admit that? All right, he's done. It's a sunk cost. We were idiots. We gave him the stupid

01:40contract. Now we got to eat it. All right. He's not getting, by the way, they can't get

01:44out of that contract. That's a guaranteed baseball contract. All right. They ain't getting

01:47out of that for nothing. And ain't no one trading anything to get him to put him on

01:50their team and put up with the publicity they're going to have to put up with. They're screwed.

01:54Good for you, Browns. It's what you get for being stupid and then trying to sell it off

01:57like it was a good move here. One thing I might do, you might want to claim Winston.

02:03Once again, these are super flex leagues. We're desperate for quarterbacks. Sooner or

02:07later I got to think he's taken over and we need that quarterback here. And by the way,

02:11Joe Flacco, if people haven't claimed him, should already be claimed.

02:14Yeah. Active in a lot of fantasy leagues going into the week. All right. Our next quarterback,

02:19I can't believe he's made our list. I feel like our producer, Sam, may have had a gummy

02:24before he did this list here. I'm not really sure. Oh, George. George did this. George did

02:30this. George, what gummy did you have before this? We're not cutting Patrick Mahomes at any

02:33fantasy league. Why are we even talking about this? Patrick Mahomes has not finished as a

02:38quarterback one since about week 12 of last year. I know, but you're not cutting him.

02:43Cutting him? Probably not. Probably not. But you're not starting him. And in one quarterback

02:48league, he's not startable. I mean, he's not even close to startable. All right. He has no

02:53one to throw to. He's not putting up any kind of fantasy points for you here. He's a great NFL

02:57quarterback. He's not a great fantasy quarterback. Not right now. We can revisit this if they acquire

03:03a wide receiver. And DeVante Adams is not getting straight there, by the way. I mean, he would love

03:07it, but that's not happening. You know, maybe the Cooper one we talked about earlier, somebody else

03:11that comes up on the board, try to kill. Excuse me. Excuse me. A little something in my throat

03:16there. But you're not starting him. Are you dropping him? Probably not. But you're not

03:21starting him. And by the way, as far as dropping him, if you're in one of those one quarterback

03:24leagues where there's a thousand quarterbacks on the way, because no one has more than one,

03:28and I play in those. Kirk Cunz is out there. Derek Carr was out there. There are plenty

03:31of quarterbacks there. And you see another player you need during a bye week and you have to win,

03:36then guess what? He is droppable. All right. Don't fall for the name here. He's not doing anything.
