00:00Uh, DeAndre Hopkins of the Titans will have, it seems to like throwing the Hopkins.

00:08I just wonder if you can really, you know, insert him in, in the low end.

00:12Remember once upon a time, Hopkins, one of the highest price wide receivers each week.

00:15Now he's 5,100 this week, George, uh, I mean, he, I think he has to score to, to hit the

00:21salary for you.

00:22Is this a by herself?

00:23Yeah, I know.

00:25Yeah, I know.

00:26Uh, no, Joe piece of pier.

00:27And I talked about him on FST last Sunday and Joe throw a little tidbit late that he

00:30thinks Hopkins is going to get traded.

00:32Interesting.

00:33Interesting.

00:34I do wonder if that could be the best, uh, uh, best thing for both parties as well.

00:38I have Hopkins in only one league of the nine I play in here.

00:41I am starting him this week, but it's only because of buys.

00:44That's it.

00:45I have Jefferson in that league and Tyreek Hill.

00:48All right.

00:49So they're both, uh, well, I'm buying, I have no choice.

00:50I had an extra first round picks.

00:52If you're wondering how I did that.

00:53Uh, so, uh, I will start him in this week and I'm not excited about it, Craig.

00:57I'm not excited about starting at all.

00:59He's a sell.

01:00I, what are you hoping for here?

01:02I mean, it's just, there's nothing going on.

01:05Uh, he may have betrayed to really prove his value again.

01:07Assuming he is that player.

01:08He used to be, uh, with the Houston Texans here.

01:10He's a sell.

01:11I don't want him.

01:12Yeah.

01:13Maybe back to Houston in a trade.

01:14I think maybe that's possible.

01:16Uh, yeah.

01:17Sell for me too.

01:18On the Andre Hopkins.

01:19I, I, I'll probably find somebody in the four thousands that I'll take a shot here.

01:23You know, give me tank Dell, by the way, over, over Hopkins going into the week.

01:27Uh, all right, tight end, take your pick, flip your coin, Kyle pits.

01:33Really are we going to do this again with Kyle pits 4,400 this week, George, I can't

01:38do this, man.

01:39Like I, I, I, I've seen enough.

01:41I don't, I don't know.

01:42Maybe it is him.

01:43Maybe it's not.

01:44It seems to be playing a little bit better.

01:46I guess that's fair to say.

01:48Now he has, he has been, well, he had the one good game, right?

01:52He had the Thursday night game where he was big.

01:54You know, I know the joke was as soon as I saw, uh, I think he had the big 39 yard play

01:58on the first pass play, right.

01:59I'll have the game for it.

02:00I'm like, Oh, it's going to be a good tight end week.

02:02Right.

02:03Cause Kyle pits alive.

02:04All right.

02:05Doesn't mean he's going to do it again here.

02:06That being said, it is a great matchup, but you are rolling the dice.

02:10If you decide to start a pitch, right?

02:12Because we've seen this before.

02:13Then he disappears, you know, and Mooney's playing so well.

02:17London's playing so well.

02:18I'm sure Atlanta would like to get the run game going this week.

02:21Yeah.

02:22I'm looking at the tight ends that are more expensive than, I mean, Bauer's a six grand

02:24McBride.

02:25I wouldn't pay a $5,700 for McBride.

02:27He's catching some balls, but not really, hasn't had that big game yet.

02:30LaPorta, Santin, Goddard, now that Brown and, uh, Smith are back.

02:34No.

02:35Ferguson a five.

02:36I think I'd pay up to six hundred because I do think it's going to be a lot of points

02:39in that game.

02:40I think Ferguson's going to finally get in the end zone here.

02:42Likely.

02:43I mean, guys who are cheaper than him, Schultz is 41.

02:48I don't think I would go.

02:49I suppose I do think this is an Andrews week, by the way.

02:51I don't think I'm going 3,900 with Andrews here.

02:53Uh, there's not much else there though.

02:56I mean, if you need to save money, by the way, Taysom Hill's out this week.

02:59Oh, we didn't bring up that.

03:00Uh, so you're not going with him.

03:02If you do need to save money, Craig, I mean, he is the, I guess the most decent tight end

03:08for the cheapest price.

03:09Okay.

03:10I like McBride.

03:11I think I'd pay up there.

03:13Um, he hasn't done much.

03:16I know, but I don't care.

03:17I mean, this guy's had one good week and 15.

03:21So I'll sell there.

03:22You know, a question we get asked a lot, George, is, and it has nothing to do with DFS, that

03:26kind of closes out our DFS talk.

03:28If you have a kicker on a buy, do you cut them?

03:30If you have a defense on a buy, do you cut them?

03:33Do you ever hang on to a kicker?

03:34Is there a kicker worth hanging on to?

03:38For the most part, the answer is no.

03:40But that being said, you know, you might have a, uh, a dead spot on your roster.

03:45You know, and maybe you have a, a butker or an Aubrey and you don't want to release them.

03:49Like I said, I mentioned I have Zeke.

03:51If I had Zeke in my roster right now for some reason, yeah.

03:53And I didn't want to lose Aubrey.

03:54I didn't want to lose butker.

03:56And you might have a weird kicker rules where, you know, 50 yards are worth five points and

03:59not three or six points or whatever it might be.

04:02Hell, maybe 60 yards or seven points.

04:03I don't know.

04:04You could have a weird rules like that.

04:06So generally I release them.

04:09But like I said, if I have a dead spot, I hate this guy.

04:11I'm moving on from him anyway.

04:12And I don't want to lose Aubrey.

04:13Fine.

04:14Yeah.

04:15Same thing with a good defense.

04:16But is there any defense that's great that you can't afford to lose?
