Desmond Ritter is going to start for the Las Vegas Raiders, George. Ritter has 239 passing
00:11
yards, one touchdown. I don't know, man. Like, I got a lot of confidence when Gardner Minshew
00:19
is going to play that he's going to give me some fantasy points. Not that he's going to
00:23
be great. Aiden O'Connell, actually, I think is going to be a backup for a long time in
00:27
the NFL. Like, not terrible. I think Aiden O'Connell is going to survive. I don't know
00:31
what to think of Desmond Ritter. He's 2% owned in fantasy. He's only going to be started
00:35
for you in two quarterback leagues that are really deep. I'm going to pass here, man.
00:39
I don't know. I don't like it. Oh, God, no. And this is against, they're playing an Atlanta
00:44
team Monday night that can't cover anybody. All right, Sam, you and I can be running routes
00:48
and we'd get open against them, but I don't know if Desmond Ritter can hit anybody. It
00:52
is, I guess, a revenge game for him. You can look at it that way, but no, I'm not looking
00:57
forward to starting any Raiders player other than Bowers. McCormick, all right, once again,
01:02
running back and a lot of juice last week. A lot of touches, fine, but the passing game
01:06
is going to be a problem. I mean, Meyers is probably going to go for a lot of teams here,
01:10
but I'm not dying to do it. I'm just not, I just, I don't like Brent. He was terrible
01:13
at Atlanta last year. I mean, awful. He had all those weapons, better receivers and couldn't
01:17
get anything done. Right. So no, I'm going to pass. Atlanta gets right this week, Monday
01:23
night.
01:24
Devon Vele, a player unowned for the majority of the season, now up to 27%. He's got 45
01:30
targets, 33 receptions, 377 yards and a touchdown. Feels like, George, on a week with buys, you
01:36
pick them up and play them, but I'm going to say probably not this week. I think you
01:39
got better options.
01:41
If you need Vele this week, I mean, I don't know what to tell you, boys and girls. All
01:46
right. And I said, no buys. All right. This is, when I said you may need to take chances
01:50
if you had Cooper cup, I did not mean Vele. Okay. I meant players still better than him.
01:55
Now you're not studying Bailey this week.
01:58
Now we clown so much last week, talking about sincere McCormick, that if we actually had
02:03
to play this guy, it would be a disaster. And now we're not only talking about playing
02:08
them, but he's the hottest pickup off the waiver wire this week, 175 yards folks. This
02:13
is only in like two games. Amir Abdul is an afterthought. I know Alexander Madison is
02:18
back I think this week, but I don't know. I think McCormick is a must start fantasy.
02:27
I don't know about must start once again, no buys. You might have two better backs,
02:30
but I joked with the Craig and I said, well, I wasn't joking. I texted Craig, I think Sunday
02:33
morning. I, I claimed him and I started, I had to, I had, okay. It goes. Kenneth Walker
02:38
was out and that screwed me. I didn't have anybody else. Cause I had Brian Robinson.
02:41
So I took it. I'll take my 10 points. He had last week. I was thrilled with that. Give
02:45
me double digits. Could have got to the end zone would have me 16. I would, we're both
02:49
off, off the wall with that. It would be great here. So yes, McCormick said, I'll pick up
02:52
and you can start him this week.
