Niko Collins 7,600. We'll start off there. Puka Nukuwa 7,400. Amon Ross St. Brown 72.
00:07
AJ Brown reading books at 7,000. McLaurin again at 6,300. Well, I mean, what am I missing here?
00:14
I don't really not like this guy on FanDuel. Jameson Williams, DraftKings 6,100 for Jameson
00:21
Williams. And then Zay Flowers for 5,900. If you end up playing a head-to-head league this week
00:26
against Zay Flowers, you're going to win, because Zay Flowers is probably not going to,
00:29
doubtful, doubtful to play. But what am I missing here? Why is McLaurin 6,300? I don't get it.
00:37
David DeWaay, once again, this is by far what should be the highest-growing game this weekend.
00:41
It's also being played indoors. All right, we're not worried about weather in this game.
00:46
All right, so I'm with you here. McLaurin, I think, has to go at 6,300 here.
00:50
I think you look at St. Brown at 7,200 as well. The only thing with St. Brown is because of
00:55
the running game there, it could be a little tougher to get touchdowns. Not really going to go
00:59
at the Nikko here. Nikko's great, no doubt. But I don't see that game being a high-scoring game.
01:04
Maybe he gets in the end zone. Maybe he doesn't. This game smells to me like 24-20, 24-21, 24-8,
01:10
somewhere around there, around the 40-point mark here. So I'm not looking great. Nakua,
01:15
once again, love him as well, but that Eagles secondary is tough. We could be playing in snow,
01:20
a little cold here. No, thank you. I do like Jamison Williams. Once again, I'm going to this
01:25
game, Craig. I mean, I think this is kind of easy here. I'm expecting seven touchdowns in this game
01:30
combined. So Jamison, if he's in the open field and that Washington secondary is not very good,
01:36
if he's even, he's leaving. It's really that simple here. So give me Williams and McLaurin.
01:40
Those are the two guys that stick out the most for me. I just think they're going to have really
01:44
solid games here. Yeah, I do too. I think it'll be a fantastic game for McLaurin.
01:49
I got Washington winning. So I do think that even him, and I'm going to go over another receiver who
01:55
I like today here on the show. And by the way, it doesn't factor in even to the tier two DFS wide
02:00
receivers, Devonta Smith. I don't like any of these guys. Devonta Smith, 5,600, Cooper Cup,
02:04
no thanks. 54, worthy. A little temptation here, 5,200. He got late in the season. Shakir is a
02:11
very big boomer bust. Bateman the same at 4,900. Hopkins, no chance. 4,700. Omari Cooper,
02:19
no chance for me at 4,400. When we get to the next board is where I think I'm going to take
02:25
my shots here, George. I mean, I guess worthy is the one that I feel the most comfortable with,
02:31
but it's, you know, George, we got to forget about this. It is playoff time, right? Like it is Kelsey
02:36
time. It is, you know, Pacheco time. I think Mahomes goes to his go-to playoff guys in this
02:43
stretch. Worthy was really good at the end of the season here. He was really good here, but we're
02:49
also, and I agree with you, by the way. All right. And you left out a couple of guys. Hopkins is
02:54
there. Marquise Brown is there. He said extra time to work. They haven't played since Christmas.
02:59
It's been three and a half weeks time to get these guys in here. I don't think we're going to,
03:03
Worthy's a deep guy. I think there'll be plays designed for him. You know, those little plays
03:07
behind the line of scrimmage, no doubt, but it's going to be cold here. I don't know how many deep
03:11
shots they're going to take here. I think Kelsey is going to have a big game, or at least they're
03:15
going to try and have Kelsey have a big game. I think you said something I also agree with.
03:18
I'm probably not touching anybody in this group here. All right. I don't like the Buffalo-Baltimore
03:22
game with 13 degrees. I don't think I'm taking anybody from that game. It's the next here
03:25
where I'll find guys, save a little money at wide receiver so I can spend up at running back.
03:30
Yeah. I love some options here in tier three. You know who I love here. And by the way,
03:36
I may take a dart and throw it at Hollywood Brown here at 4,200, but I am definitely,
03:43
absolutely 100% in George. I don't know who it's going to be, but you see those two guys
03:48
on Washington. And again, look, I am a homer for Washington. Okay. Let's be clear. Okay.
03:53
I have been the Washington homer, but George between Zacchaeus and Deami Brown, I think one
03:58
of those guys is going to, I don't know who it's going to be. I think one of those guys is going
04:02
to cash in on this number today. I'd pass on the rest of this list, but I would maybe do one lineup
04:09
with Zacchaeus, one lineup with Deami Brown, and maybe even pair Hollywood Brown there. I'll pass
04:13
on Robinson. I'll pass on Mechie. I'll pass on Tim Patrick and Coleman too. Yeah. I'm okay with
04:19
you doing as well here. I'm thinking the same thing. I probably lean towards Zacchaeus. You
04:24
know, I think he's the guy, it was Deami Brown in the wildcard round, right? He had the big game.
04:29
So he, and he was good. I keep saying this over and over again. I expect points to be scored at
04:34
the over on his five and a half, 55 and a half. Obviously Vegas thinks points are going to be
04:38
scored in this game. 55 and a half puts you at seven touchdowns. So yeah, it's a good chance
04:42
Z is going to score here. I mean, it's Deami Brown, take your choice. Or you play two different
04:46
lineups, one with each. I don't have a problem with that either here. If you're asking me which
04:49
one I prefer over the other, I prefer Z over Brown, but you talked on once again, it's just
04:54
personal preference here. If you're telling me it's Brown over Z, I'm not going to argue with you.
