00:00So, it's week 11 of the fantasy football season.

00:06We're going to go through some potential starts and sits.

00:09And Joe, what's really interesting where we're going to start here is the fact that we have three names

00:13that I think could even potentially be on the waiver wire in some leagues.

00:17A couple of players on the Chargers and then an old friend who is, you know,

00:21popular for making catches in big games and not much else.

00:25And not much else is right.

00:27I think we're going to start this week with the guys with the Chargers

00:30because they're playing the Cincinnati Bengals

00:32and whenever you have anyone playing against that Cincinnati Bengals defense,

00:35you start all the wide receivers you possibly can against them.

00:37Just look at last week alone against the Baltimore Ravens.

00:41That has been fantasy paydirt every single time out.

00:44And you are correct.

00:46I mean, Quentin Johnson is a guy that's rostered about 55, 60% of leagues.

00:49He's out there still on 40% of waiver wires.

00:51And Ladd McConkie, another guy, too, where I know he's had a down leak last week

00:54against the Titans secondary is actually pretty good.

00:57That defense shows up sometimes.

00:59But overall, when you're looking at attacking the Cincinnati crew,

01:03you just throw everything to the wall.

01:05Now, Quentin Johnson certainly has more touchdown equity, I would say.

01:08So when they half beat the Arden Standard Leagues,

01:10Quentin Johnson I think is very startable this week if you're looking right now.

01:13He's got an expert consensus ranking on fantasy pros of wide receiver 37, right?

01:17That's right on that fringe.

01:18That's a guy that you're absolutely starting, in my opinion.

01:21And Ladd McConkie, another guy, too,

01:23where I think you're looking much closer to maybe those like six catches

01:26for 80 yards or somewhere around there.

01:28And in full PPR leagues, that's going to get you 14 points,

01:31and that's going to be very steady.

01:32So both these guys are in a good position right now.

01:35And when you consider also this is a Cincinnati secondary plays a lot of two

01:38high, this is a spot, too, where typically guys like Quentin Johnson

01:42and Ladd McConkie are in really good positions.

01:44I'd be betting the over on Justin Herbert as well.

01:47And then the tough one that you mentioned, too,

01:49which is even difficult for me to say start this guy.

01:51But between all the injuries and the bye weeks and everything we've got going

01:55on and the Cleveland Browns, who if you've watched that secondary play,

01:58a lot of miscommunications, a lot of issues where they've given up some big

02:01plays, and that is the one thing you see MVS do well.

02:04So Marquez Valdez Gantling, another guy that's available probably in about,

02:07you know, 60 to 70 even percent of leagues.

02:10If you need a streamer this week, MVS against the Cleveland Browns,

02:14you could do worse.

02:15I don't expect him to thread the needle with the three targets

02:18and three catches for 100 yards and a touchdown.

02:21That's a ludicrous stat line.

02:23But can he get you some touchdown equity in this game?

02:25I think you can.

02:26And if you could catch three balls for even 50 yards and a touchdown,

02:30because at the end of the day, Derek Carr's got nothing left to throw to.

02:33So somebody has to catch the football.

02:35And it is a situation where I do think this team could be playing from behind.

02:39You get that bounce off the firing of the head coach.

02:41That tends to be good for about a week.

02:43And then we move on.

02:44So MVS, another guy that you could stream as a flex this week.

02:47And all three of those guys I think are very playable.

02:49And all three have potential touchdown equity in their matchups

02:52against those secondaries that frankly just have not played well all year.
