00:00All right, let's talk quarterbacks here.

00:04Jalen Hurts is at the top, but I would love to start at the bottom and work my way up

00:08here because your buddy Drake May is at 6,800.

00:10What do you think?

00:12Yeah, my buddy Drake May in a match up here against the 20th ranked rush defense and also

00:17a secondary that's played really poorly.

00:19Let's let's be honest.

00:20I mean, that secondary has not played good these last couple of games for a myriad of

00:26different reasons.

00:27But Drake May at 6,800 gives you rushing equity, and that's the one thing you could take away.

00:32He has been certainly better than Jacoby Brissett.

00:36I think people were very concerned about throwing him into the lion's den a little too soon.

00:41But Drake May has responded.

00:42He's been pretty good.

00:43He's made the most out of some lackluster weapons around him.

00:47But I think if you're looking for a cheap out, again, how do we get up there to just

00:52the Jefferson this week?

00:53I think Drake May might be one of those ways.

00:55Now, if you want to just go ahead and stack Darnold and Jefferson together, that's fine,

00:58too.

00:59You're going to have to pay down at running back, pay down at tight end, some other wide

01:01receiver spots in order to make that all work.

01:03You see Jalen Hurts on the opposite end here, 9,400 again, you know, dealing with injuries,

01:08but his touchdown equity has been through the roof this year.

01:10Josh Allen at 9,200.

01:12Purdy's kind of that mid-level value.

01:14I talked about the match up here against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

01:18I like a stack here of 49ers, specifically Purdy and Kittle.

01:23That I think is the most cost effective that you can have.

01:25So that's the approach I'd be taking.

01:27And of course, Patrick Mahomes, underpriced at 7,900.

01:29Now that Hopkins is there, you might see this team start to roll a little bit in terms of

01:34offense.

01:35Kelsey's starting to play better.

01:36This defense is very good.

01:38At the end of the day, you know, there's one undefeated team and it's the Kansas City Chiefs.

01:41I know nobody wants to hear it.

01:43Nobody wants to hear me talk about three Peets and all this stuff, people.

01:46It's so funny.

01:47You know, same thing happened to Tom Brady.

01:48You know, you're the lovable plucky underdog.

01:51You're the fresh new kid in town.

01:52Everybody loves you, right?

01:53It's like that Eagles song.

01:54New kid in town.

01:55One of Matt's favorites.

01:56And then all of a sudden you win a bunch and now everybody hates you.

01:59Well, sorry.

02:00I'm not going to get there.

02:01Kansas City Chiefs, great football team, well coached, good players.

02:05And again, they're starting to look like the team to beat once again in the AFC.

02:10Sound advice.

02:11And if everyone wants to live away from that, then go right ahead.

02:13But I'm going to stay with sound advice because sound advice always pays the bills.

02:17Let's stretch our legs with the time that we have left and talk tight ends here.

02:20Some familiar names up at the top, but there could be some gems.

02:23Let's have a conversation.

02:24Yeah.

02:25Look, Travis Kelsey coming off a huge game.

02:27He's certainly in play, but again, expensive, so you can't have Jefferson too.

02:30Kate Aughton, been a target monster since you've gotten Chris Godwin out.

02:37He's been on the field a ton all season.

02:39And now because he's on the field, he's seeing a ton of targets.

02:42Kate Aughton probably is a top five or six tight end rest of season if this volume continues.

02:49Even to push further up that chart, he's a really interesting by low to for a team

02:53that might have picked him up and doesn't need a second tight end.

02:56Evan Ingram at 6200.

02:57Again, I'm going to pass on that because the quarterback situation, Kyle pits again, another

03:02tough one.

03:03But then Hunter Henry at 5300 in play a bit today, I think with Drake May, if you want

03:10to take that easy stack, Kittle is the guy to pay up for, though, if you're going to

03:14pay up for a tight end this week.

03:15And then on top of that, too, if you want to pivot all the way down, don't forget about

03:19Taysom Hill.

03:20New Orleans does not have a lot of pieces left to run this offense.

03:23He's going to touch the football, whether it be under center or there be at the tight

03:27end position, whether it be a running back, H back, who knows what we're going to see

03:31from Taysom Hill.

03:32But my guess is he gets.
