00:00All right, let's talk some sell points here.

00:05One older receiver had a great game.

00:07I think that's time enough to say, okay, and then this other guy, you've been talking up

00:11for a few weeks and I'm curious as to know why you want to sell him.

00:14So let's start in Tennessee with this one receiver who's, uh, I'd say past his prime,

00:18but still could give you a flash of brilliance here and there.

00:21Yeah.

00:22Calvin Ridley had as many catches last week as he's had basically the whole year, uh,

00:2610 catches for 143 yards and still no touchdown.

00:30Uh, I'm not chasing this, uh, new England this week.

00:33He gets Christian Gonzalez.

00:34Uh, after that, a couple of weeks later, he's got stingy.

00:36Like is this, it's not good.

00:39It's the, it's the, it's not sustainable with the way the quarterback play is there.

00:42So I think people are looking at it and saying, Oh, Deandre Hopkins has gone, look at all

00:45the Calvin Ridley targets.

00:46And yeah, I did get a lot of targets, but the efficiency of those targets are troubling.

00:51And I just don't think unless he gets traded this week and he might, I'm just not chasing

00:56last week.

00:57So this is your chance to get out from under Calvin Ridley, who has been underwhelming

01:00to say the least all year.

01:01Now another guy that's not underwhelming, who actually not only has met my expectations,

01:06but exceeded them the last two weeks is Cedric Tillman.

01:09When that Amari Cooper trade happened, everybody was talking about Jerry Judy, except this

01:12show.

01:13And I was talking about Cedric Tillman and he had a really good first game without Cooper

01:17last week.

01:18The number was 39 and a half.

01:19We told you, bet it, bet the touchdown, but at all, he got 102 touchdowns last week.

01:24He was tremendous.

01:26But the thing is his value might be at its peak right now.

01:29If you look at Cedric Tillman and what's ahead of him, it's a difficult schedule.

01:33Now I'm not trying to give him away, but what I am saying about Cedric Tillman is this.

01:38If you look at, he's got two games left against Pittsburgh, right?

01:40Joey Porter's a really good cornerback.

01:42He's got a game against Denver left of cornerback situation, a game against Casey.

01:47That's a very good defense, right?

01:49So the schedule isn't great for him.

01:51His value is at its peak.

01:53If somebody is going to overpay and give you somebody like a Pittman or maybe somebody

01:57who has been underwhelming, but was certainly a guy that people believed in.

02:00If you can get a Puka Nakua for him or a Cooper Cup for him or something crazy like that,

02:06kick the tires.

02:07See what happens on a deal.

02:08Again, I'm not giving away Tillman, but this is his peak value.

02:11So see what the marketplace will yield.
