00:00All right, now at quarterback, of course Josh Allen is going to be the highest priced player

00:04on Sunday.

00:05But is this the same strategy, George, where you know you're getting fantasy points from

00:10a quarterback so you want to save a little money?

00:12You go down to Daniels, he's at 7,500.

00:15Jalen Hurts is 7,300 coming off the concussion.

00:18Boy, Baker Mayfield only 6,800 in this matchup.

00:21You could save 1,400 and use Baker here.

00:24Bo Nix is 6,300.

00:26And I got to tell you, like, I do like Jordan Love and I like the matchup.

00:29I don't like hearing, at practice this week, him in the media saying that his elbow hurts.

00:34Like, I don't know, that seems to be a little bit of a bad sign for me, so I cannot pull

00:39the trigger there.

00:40It would have to be one of the first one, two, three, four, five on this list here.

00:45I'd stop with Nix.

00:46And Nix, boy, like, I don't know what that environment's going to be like for him in

00:50Buffalo and he's been prone to throwing picks lately too.

00:54Yeah, and Bo, I mean, my first inclination was to go Baker Mayfield because we know he

01:01does the same thing almost every week, 300 yards, three touchdowns.

01:04But the problem with Baker Mayfield is you're going to be behind the eight ball because

01:08Allen, Daniels, Hurts, Nix, they're all going to run the football.

01:13They're going to have rushing yards, right?

01:14Allen's going over 40 yards, Daniels probably over 60 yards, Hurts, especially with the

01:20tush push too.

01:21You know, he's going to get in the end zone, although I do wonder if maybe the tush push

01:24doesn't come into play, you know, with the concussion.

01:28Maybe they'll just want to give the ball to Barkley and let him get it in.

01:30We'll see here.

01:31And Bo Nix runs the ball as well here.

01:34So it's sort of the game I'm going to play, Greg.

01:36Do I need to save?

01:37How much money do I need to save?

01:38If I don't need to save money, then I'm going to go one of the other guys here.

01:41I don't know if I'd go Daniels.

01:42As much as I'm worried about Nix being a rookie, Daniels is the same thing, although I think

01:47he's fine.

01:48I really do want to pay up for Allen.

01:50We know it.

01:51It's going to funnel through him.

01:52He's going to throw the ball.

01:53He's going to run the ball.

01:54He's going to get to the end zone.

01:55He does every damn week here.

01:57But I don't know if I'm going to be able to afford to get the other guys in that I want

02:00to get in.

02:01But I'm okay with using, like I said, any of the top four.

02:03I'm not going as low as Nix, although I do like him.

02:05I have a funny feeling, though, for me, it's going to be Mayfield, all right?

02:09Because I know what he's going to do here.

02:10I'm going to eat it as far as the rushing yard is just concerned, but I'm going to need

02:14to save that money.

02:16Yeah, you know, my narrative all year is Washington, so I think if I used McLaurin

02:22at 6,500, I think I would go with Daniels there, and that's like irrespective of them

02:28winning the game at all, but I just think that that's such a good quarterback, wide

02:32receiver stack.

02:33You can't play that with Allen.

02:36With Mayfield, if you were to do 6,800, I don't know that you can stack Evans, George,

02:42because the price is so high, but you mentioned McMillan as a possibility as a third wide

02:46receiver there, right?

02:47Yeah, McMillan would be the guy I'd look at there, and he's much—was he 5,200, I believe

02:52he was?

02:53So that would be—and he's scoring touchdowns, just as many as Evans of late as well.

02:57McMillan's a decent wide receiver.

02:58He's not Chris Godwin, but he's a decent wide receiver.
