00:00The good news is there's still plenty of value out there in the DFS market and certainly

00:07some high priced guys as well. Saquon Barkley, the top of the list for a man who can run

00:13forwards and backwards, both faster than Matt and myself. Saquon Barkley, 9,600, very expensive.

00:19I would fade away from Christian McCaffrey. If I'm going to spend up on a running back,

00:23I'd rather have Barkley. You know, he's getting that full workload, but when it comes to full

00:26workloads, you've got Kareem Hunt sitting right there who I have to say, you know, I'm

00:31going to take the L on Kareem Hunt because I did not think that old man Kareem Hunt had

00:35enough left in the tank, but he has, he has been incredibly steady. If you look at the

00:40game log and what he's been able to produce to every week, he's out there and PPR leagues

00:44three of the last four weeks, he's had 20 plus points. I mean, it's incredible when

00:48you consider that now this week, a little tougher matchup here, he's going against the

00:52ninth ranked rush defense of the Denver Broncos. But again, because he works in that passing

00:56game, he still has a lot of fantasy value. Brees Hall at 8,300. That's more where I want

01:02to live this week. I think that is the better play against the Arizona Cardinals. And it's

01:06funny in the black book, we talked about this, right? A couple of weeks ago, I said, maybe

01:09I was wrong about the Cardinals. Maybe they're not the plucky fun team that I thought they

01:13might be. Well, I think I was wrong about being wrong because they're at the top of

01:17the standings right now. And you asked me about upsets this week. Why not the Arizona

01:21Cardinals at home underdogs against the jets? I mean, the jets find a way to lose games

01:26last time I've seen them for the most part. So just saying Aaron Jones also just tragically

01:31under appreciated 6,700. I mean, this is a guy that absolutely should be rostered in

01:39a lot of spots today against Jacksonville Jaguars. You have to imagine they're going

01:43to have a lead. You have to imagine he's got touchdown equity today. So he hasn't hit a

01:48hundred yards since week three. This could be one of those matchups where he has it.

01:54And look, this is a team again, that struggles mightily against the past, which means Sam

01:58Darlow, the first half of this game, I imagine is going to air it out. I imagine you get

02:01a lot of work then and Aaron Jones in the second half of this game. So keep a close

02:05eye on that. It might take a little while, but I think you will get there, but the running

02:08back situation again, you've got a lot of guys on this board, varying prices that you

02:12can work with this week.
