"I think i talked with this lab about this. You know how frustrating was it to see. davis mills. Look like joe montana. There and brandin cooks not being the beneficiary of that was that part of the reason is and we talk about this. All the time is bill. Belichick tries to take out your best offensive weapons When when he goes up against you and the best defensive weapons no question for houston was brandin cooks. And that's what we saw chris. Conley and other receivers. You'll never hear from again with career days so i feel like you know despite cook seemingly coming back which by the way the vikings aren't a by i believe next week so we'll get the week off next week regardless Even though you probably won't be able to play madison. This week ron Brandin cooks is a nice little consolation prize. So congratulations on that. It's all about building depth. And and you guys certainly did that here with this squad all right. Let's pitch Let's go with ron. Why don't you take this question sort of dale and boston. He writes as van jefferson. Worth keeping around on my roster. I'm gonna have some by week issues. The next couple of weeks congrats guys that dale and boston. So ron you look at Van jefferson right now. Obviously behind cooper cop obviously behind robert woods but you can make the case if either one of those guys goes down band. Jefferson could be a big beneficiary of the question. Is when you're faced with by week issues Over the next month month and a half whatever. It is How hard you have to work to keep. Band jefferson on your roster. I think he's definitely worthwhile keeping He's one of the players. When i was drafting this year i looked at as being a free square that had tremendous upside if if One of the two guys go down. the great offense stafford is there. He's a definitely a huge upgrade over. Goff so i was really targeting Jefferson at the end of the end of the draft for sure for them..

"Finally guy. Johnny smith a touchdown and he worked one hundred henry a lot there to the running back. Is you know not a lot. I don't damian harris even play last week. It was such a small part of what those patriots did against bucks. Although that bucks defense is so strong while you're gonna try running but a touchdown in but other than yeah not huge attribution gotta get that running game going i wanna see some reminder a stevenson gonna start spam in Patriots twitter feeds. Gimme some stevenson there. But you know this team is working towards the future. I don't see a playoff Birth in their future. But you know they're going to be hovering right around there. They're tough to beat so they're gonna make you play good football to beat them. But dave but i do know is. There is a rookie quarterback. Going against bill ballot. Check in that house. You still like thunder. That's literally the first thing that was going to say casey. You've got a rookie quarterback in bella checks records were versus rookie. Quarterback's it's not only good he basically embarrasses them and he he just cut him down to size in. This guy's davis mills. You know he's got a lot of potential he's a he's very inexperienced. He had a short career at stanford. They're just eleven games lots of raw talent there but completing just over fifty percent of his passes in the nfl. That's not going to really get it done He just had eighty seven passing yards last week. So it is a work in progress to say. The least brandin cooks managed manages to still make place for this team. But i mean they got absolutely smoked last week. Forty to nothing by the bills. And it's obviously like you said with bill belichick on the other side and a rookie quarterback at the helm. Good luck this time. Texans all right up next we have. Afc south battle tennessee titans at the jacksonville jaguars and the titans three and a half point favorites on the road. Yeah and this is a titans team coming off that over shocking overtime loss to the jets last week And you know when you look at the numbers of that game you got derrick henry hundred fifty seven yards in a rushdie last week you would have said i mean you look at the stats. There's no way the jets one. Somehow they pull it off This titans team last year as good as they were a playoff squad a fun team to watch. The defense is questionable at best for the squad and allows other teams to usually get a lead on them and to an end or to hang around in the football game at this point in time you got. Aj brown and julio jones both pretty banged up there's a pretty good chance one of them will go This week they could certainly use them But you know..

"So that's going to help najji harris get targets. It's clearly an implemented part of their offense whereas gibson. I'll say it again. Zero third downs played last week. He actually started the year playing some third downs. And getting some work in in the past in passing situations and It's it seems to be dissipating form. It makes me nervous. And it's all his offensive line. Is that much better than the nargis brandin cooks as a top eight wide receiver. What would you trade brandin cooks for. If you were going to sell allen robinson think you can get more than robinson for cooks at this point but you would rather have robinson i would. It's you know if you look at their careers. i mean. they both very accomplished careers. They both been top fifteen ish wide receivers robinson a little bit better. They're both on bad offenses but cooks might have a bigger target. Share than our rob. Maybe we just discounted cooks too much. What's different about him than robinson. Just just you think at the end of the day. More targets robinson. I think there's a better i i know. It hasn't been the case so far. I think that robinson will have better quarterback play for the rest of the season than brennan cooks. Okay you know why that might be the case. What happens of cooks gets traded. The we we talked about that a lot. I didn't realize somebody tweeted to me. I do not believe brandin cooks will accept the trade. He said back in january that he didn't wanna get traded because he wanted to spend time this off season working with shawn watson in. Houston i but i think he reiterated that after after the whole watson he did. I didn't. I didn't read that if he did. But push comes to shove if he's on a team that's going nowhere. He wants to stay there. Catching passes from tyrod and davis. The i think the thing was he was tired of people determining when he was going to move and where he was going to live and he wanted to make that choice for himself. He did not enjoy the process of being traded three times in four years. I didn't know he had a no trade clause in his contract. Think he does. I think he just said he's not going to play a trade forum. I don't buy it at all. Be a break. It'll be like one in five. I don't even know where the trade that line is. Why would he want to get traded. Come on now journey that he will get traded. It's just something that'll be out there. There are going to be teams that are going to look for receiver help at the deadline. This to someone who houston's definitely open for business they will trade anybody they possibly cast really really quick adam but it's not a football thing. He's a human being you. Would if you had to move across the country four times in five years. But he's a competitor. I think at the end of the day if he gets the chance to go to a super bowl contender he he might. He might change his mind right. Like what if the chiefs decided to trade for cooks instead of. Let's say josh. Gordon fizzles out i know craz- can we break now..

"I understand that. But i thought it would. There's still limitations to what someone can do with with a quarterback. I just don't see davis mills having a great three game stretch or two more games. Whatever it's going to be with taylor especially with buffalo great game last night and i know. But that's that's when. That's when. I would say i don't buy that could happen again. Where he's going to get sixty six percent of the teams receiving yards especially with buffalo. New england is the next two games. Well i think the bigger question is can you keep up this type of target share where he's got. Eleven of two thousand eight throws going his way. That's probably also not very sustainable. That's almost forty percent of the target chair but he still going to get a lot of target at minimum eight targets from game. Is that stinks. I'm just saying right. You try to turn them into. Sue has a bad. Yes absolutely shopping him. There's no reason to not shop him at this point because this is not sustainable but i mean like five. Eighty is probably something that he can still do based on the amount of targets. He's gonna get so he's not gonna completely fall off the face of the you know. This isn't give him away or whatever. You should be getting something great return. I'm not saying to trade him for anything like you're saying when you said you should absolutely sell high is that you just get whatever you can for. Brandin cooks said you sit. You sell him high for somebody. That's that's a bilo candidate. So if i can turn brandin cooks and trade wasi harris. I'm trying to do that if i concern. Brandin cooks and and another player of that caliber into antonio gibson or saquon barkley. I'm a thousand percents that i'm doing to would you do it. Straight up for clyde edwards layer. If i needed a running back and that's the best i can do. You know. Cook is among my third receiver fourth receiver depending on the type of league denim. and then. yeah. I would consider it okay. I would love it. But i consider it right so shoot higher than that. Yes yeah you should. Yeah okay but my way. Davis most isn't gonna be the quarterback for the rest of the year. Either just to keep that in mind. But i just hate the schedule. I i didn't like it last night. Either came through. I listened sunday ten when we do the autopsy on the two thousand fourteen wide receiver draft class. How's it gonna look three years from now right while devante adams's in that class or no. Yes yes so. He'll be at the top now. Mike evans might be the top though but ahead of that of atoms well bodywork at the top. Folks will be pretty if things continue. Frat but evans had a two three year. Headstart on alan robinson was in that class yup and brandin cooks and odell beckham and sammy watkins. And who am i forgetting jordan. Mathews i think. Forgetting another star kelvin. Benjamin ever who. I thought was going to be the best guy that class mark isley murky slay her. I.

"I did that last night. Feels pretty awesome. I just couldn't wait to get the season the week started. Or you can do the two out of three kramer. He two out of three pretty off night for his props and only you can still turn twenty into forty five only going to and one. So that's if you're a little you know you wanna play the floor game instead of the ceiling for me. The ceiling is the sky. Right guy guy came at me on twitter all mad. Because i only one one unit on the sunday night chiefs ravens game as compared to the nine point seven years. One thursday night football with the giants. And you know we already talked about yes side. one All right my who. Who's your first one. I probably should add it up in front of me. My first one is christian mccaffrey. You're telling me. I can get even money on him. To score a touchdown yes please. It's a rushing touchdown to be clear. Okay ooh that's fun taxes. And mccaffrey finds the end zone. I tried to play that in prospects entry right however you can't play these same player prop so i have christian mccaffrey over nine and a half perception suboxone. Come out They yeah. I mean christian. Mccaffrey just catches the football. It's just that simple in his last thirteen games. He's gone over five and a half and ten of those ten and three against the number five and a half and last game he only had five. So you already had that outlier game. He's coming off of i- darnold seems like he's gonna throw him the ball a bunch. It seems like robbie anderson maybe doesn't have much enrollment. We'll see but he's still putting up decent numbers even though he's not getting the targets he got last year. It's early. They signed him to a big deal. That's what i'm holding on do. Because they're gonna pay the guy they're gonna use him so i think he's still involved but his role. Maybe slightly changed. Who's your second Prop effort thursday night blows my mind that we're looking at a panthers team that's eight and a half points on the road it is. Why what the hell what kinda nfl or we live in an all right. We davis mills over two. Oh nine and a half passing yards at some point. The numbers to low tyrod was passing the ball effectively. Davis mills came in through one hundred yards Yeah i don't know. I'm just playing the numbers here. That's a low number of the panthers. Earning xactly world beaters. I know their defense looks improved. But i think there'll be some some passing yards in this game if nothing else. Garbage time stanford kid. He's not gonna make a ton of mistakes. Yeah and again. It's so low. That i mean anytime. You see a passing yardage it's really. Nfl under two twenty. They're not running the quarterback that throws the ball not name lamar jackson. Then you should take the over on. These insanely low. I mean we said we. We're tyrod it was like two o. five it was. It was one of these props of in a while. Second one and i've been looking at the establish the run projections. They have this guy project zero. So i don't know if there's something. I missed but mark ingram over thirty three and a half rushing yards. I know they're trying to maybe mix it up a little bit. As far as who gets the workload he said hurt. I not that i know no. I found no news. That's what i was gonna say. I keep an eye on it. I guess before you get down on this. But he is forty kerry so far in games. And i think if you're starting davis mills what do you wanna do. You wanna give the ball to a veteran running back like mark ingram and again. He's gonna probably get fifteen carries. I think conservatively even twelve. And you only have to average like three yards of carey which is like what is with averaging. It's not going to be pretty but i. He gets the thirty three and a half pretty easily. I mean i think we need to relax about the panthers defense so especially in this spot. And i'm gonna stack davis mills with brandin cooks over sixty eight and a half. Yeah receiving yards Brandin cooks just gets doesn't matter targets doesn't matter it was quarterback is and yeah. That was my other note. The narrowest of target distribution down there in houston They don't have a lot of options. Sprain and cooks is the option. We joked about it. But i ended up with a lot of brandin cooks and best ball seven so if this can keep going i find it remarkable. How open he can get on a team. That doesn't really have anything else. And everyone knows. He's the main target. Yeah if i was a defensive coordinator applying the texans ago. You were guarding brandin. Cooks any other question. What about philip. Linzie yeah no. I know we all will lindsay regarding brandin cooks. But what about jordan. Aren't we worried about no guard. Brandin cooks and again you know coming up. Fourteen target game if he can get a dozen targets. You don't have to be that efficient to get to sixty nine nice receiving yards right. I mean you can have like an okay game with that crazy target shared and still get there. Yeah bonus one. That came across sam darnold over six and a half rush yards that one. All you need is just one one play for you to break..

"Them at some points but not a ton to report in this game but if you have andy dalton the and you know justin fields kind of be on standby. Justin feels probably gets to start next week. I think against the browns. And i believe or not. I think that's a fair will match up. I think he does well in that game. So speaking of the browns they took on the texans. They won thirty one. Twenty-one baker mayfield got injured in this game but he was fine One thousand nine hundred. Twenty one hundred thirteen yard touchdown in a pick nick. Shaab eleven attempts eleven carries ninety five yards and a touchdown kareem hunt had thirteen russia's for fifty one yards when we had five points in the game but yet chubs a monster and Also dmitri dmitry felton. I think that's how you pronounce it. He had two receptions fifty one yards and he had that touchdown run. That was an incredible play. He had a couple of spin moves it. That was an incredible play. Hooper five receptions forty yards. I think he's a guy that you know. He's going to get a decent amount of targets. And i think if you're desperate at the tight ends bodies definitely somebody you can pick up and start. I think because he does get a decent mandatory gets. I don't know jarvis landry leftist game with an injury in return and joke really. Didn't do anything. It really. Looking at their stats. Peremptorily really didn't do that. Much hunter bryant or harrison. Brian sorry four. Sections forty nine yards had four points. Yeah really need. The ground game was really what was the strengthened team in this game but yeah trump. You're gonna start every week baker. I think he's the guy that you could start every week as well because of the people that he can throw to and this is without odell beckham. If odell beckham comes back you know look out. And then tyrod taylor. He was a quarterback that left the game. Ten of eleven one hundred twenty five yards touchdown and also davis mills playing this game. Eight of eighteen hundred yards touchdown. I mean these guys are an pick these guys are. You're not really going to start him unless you're super desperate at the quarterback spot. You know you're dealing with injuries. Are you draft quarterback with the same. Bye week or something. You know it's These guys really want you know. Pick up and really outside of that. You know mark ingram was their leading rusher forty one yards. I mean you know. He's not really going to do that. Much tyrod taylor. At a rushing touchdown brandin cooks was the leading receiver. I mean there's no surprise there. there's really just no value With the houston texans. When it comes to fantasy brandon coaxes really their best player And even without shawn watson. Brandin cooks is still. I think he's a strong flex play. So that's my thoughts on that game so moving on we got about five games left to cover. I believe so. The next game is the rams and the colts rams win. Twenty seven twenty. Four matthew stafford two hundred seventy eight yards passing two touchdowns a pick at about twenty. One points darrow. Understand had a pretty good game got injured in this game. Left with the rib injuries. Let's keep tabs. On fifty three yards rushing and a touchdown had about thirteen points in that contest and sony michelle. If you have him he might be the lead running back. If henderson is expected to miss time. So just keep an eye on that cooper cups. Been a monster so far and was a monster in this game. Nine receptions one hundred sixty three yards two touchdowns at twenty eight points at about like thirty three thirty six in my p pr league. Robert woods kind of worried about his production is production has kind of taken a dip five or six hundred sixty four yards and those bad about six points and jefferson had one reception for fourteen yards at one for eight. So i mean those are leading productive producers in this game Was stafford henderson. And cooper cup you know and i think there's really no surprise. There did expect the colts defense to play a little bit better. They kinda did but not that much and then on the cold side carson. Wentz actually got hurt in this game. Twenty thirty one hundred. Forty seven yards a touchdown and a pick. Jacob jacobsen through costly interception. Jonathan taylor only at fifty one yards rushing a little worried about the The colts offensive. Line the offensive line is not been playing that well and i'm a little worried about that. Michael pittman a research hundred twenty three yards at about twelve points. Yeah he was pretty good in the game so you know what i definitely think he'd be a strong flex play. Because i think it's clear he's number one option right now on the team jackson. Sixty four yards receiving paschal. Thirty eight and a touchdown. So i mean the receiver spot. I really don't see a ton of value. But i think pittman is probably like i said i think he could be a strong flex play You know him when seem to have a good connection and paschal he's at he's at three touchdown so far this season so i think really. Those are the two top wide receivers on the colts. Now without ty l. bi. A little worried about the running. Game jonathon taylor really has not lived up to his expectations yet. So yeah that's my thoughts on that game so now we go into the broncos end. Jaguars broncos win twenty three thirteen teddy bridgewater great performance. Twenty.

"Do you wanna tell bill and the listeners about your experience at shea. Mcveigh i went before. The season started to set him up. I was is like. Hey i can just set up for you. I can do it outside on companies like come on. What's up with foot. Can i went in and show them for thirty minutes. And he's the best. And i was like well. I'm rams fan now also. Sean told me that he went to the bathroom and came out and craigslist fumbling through like his like his accolades and his awards like he went to the room roommate. He saw craig just going through like as nfc championship ring and hating yearbook and everything. Yeah nfc championship. Because the patriots took the rain from there is that of championship. Bring you'd have like mcveigh kool-aid drinking meetings Wait craig stay on for this on cowboys. Chargers who that line has moved for to three and a half. Plus for the cowboys. It's the marcus lawrence being out. I know i know. But for some reason they're judging this like it's a home field advantage thing for the chargers and yet nine. What ninety five percent do you know in each delivered. You know any chargers fans. I'm becoming one. But no i don't know any. I love charges but this screams cowboys. Teas you get them up to ten and a half she seven point on this. That's easy paired with like the rams kindle like plus three that's easiest game's going to be like thirty to thirty five buildings. Craig craig have a history with million dollar picks we give a shit what he's saying right now. I don't know either. I mean we we we. We could listen to them and see what happens. I mean what part of how you growing franchise. Maybe this is a very. This is my shot craig. Let me ask you. This teased the cowboys to ten. And a half you tease the over down to forty seven and a half. Oh my god lock century we on the fantasy show coming out tomorrow. We talked about over under for dak. Herbert's yards both around three hundred hammarby over on their concert for like three seventy. Herbert was weirdly good last week for such a strange game. The weird i mean. We're sean slater should be your afc offensive rookie of the year. He held chase young two one pressure and completely held it down as a starting left tackle in his first career game. Unbelievable he was awesome. And then lindsey their center blaga. The chargers offensive line is going to keep that pocket clean. I think the chargers beat the cowboys this weekend. That's my take and home field play much of a role because it's going to be mixed. I'm with you on. I think this is a stay away as a straight up. But i like the idea of tea so we'll get back to that all right. Thanks craig love your Two more quick ones. Texans are plus twelve and a half against the browns. It's just way too high. It's just way too high. it's the most. The browns have ever been favored. I think since they moved back to cleveland and ninety nine. I don't know if the texans are bad bill. The texans are going to be fun as hell to watch they. They ran the pistol offense last week the entire time. They the pistol out there which is like nevada. Chris all type stuff Tim kelly's the offensive coordinator. I you know. I don't see anyone talked about the texans because it was like the shawn watson is not there well the shawn watson was foreign twelve as the starter. I don't know what the rest of the team felt about. The being dismissed. But i know that tyrod taylor. Danny 'em dollah mark ingram. Justin brit brandin cooks are pros. Those a pros. They don't come out and they don't get pushed around. They're not gonna get embarrassed by a first year coach and a first year quarterback they took care of business and they were underdogs at home last week. I don't think that this team is gonna get blown out by the cleveland browns. Even in cleveland. I you know tyrod has got a lot of pride. That team is a lot of pride and they play a smart football. If you saw last week it was like they just moved the ball down. The field amendola is still playing. Seventh team got signed about two days for the season and he's killing anger. They have some old cagey veteran. My god philip lindsey. I mean he's not as old as those guys with these super. Listen texans plus twelve and have lions plus eleven half so then. The obvious thing would be like oh cool. I'll do three team ten point. Tease brown only have to win by three packers. Only two by two. And i have ten free points to move ever what it looks too easy on. Paper peter schrager. I'm afraid of it. I don't know which one are you more afraid of because we talked about the lions packers case earlier. What if the packers just suck. Wouldn't the lions are able to just block them. And i'm afraid of both of those games so i just wanted to flag that underdog your real quick by the texans. They ran something called thirteen personnel. Which is three tight ends one running back one wide receiver a bunch of times during the game and like the jaguars. It looks like they had never seen it before. They what the texans were. Running on offense was so fun to watch. No one washes game. They were all over the field with all these different formations like they can confuse the defense i. I think they're going to be sneaky competitive in this one so stay away. Are you ready to have. The could the texans when the afc south conversation yet. Or no. no. Because i saw the jaguars win their first game and lose fifteen straight last year. So i'm going to slow down on the texans high. But i know this. I talked to a guy in their organization. The night before the game and i was like. So what about the shawn. Watson house up like dude. It's not even a conversation within the team. They all have their own thoughts on it but like there's too many professionals on this team too. Many brandin cooks has been in super bowls mark. Ingram has been you know in big games. Tyrod been these. These won the super bowl ring. And he's played like they're not worried about is the sean coming back or not. These guys are playing for their careers so that was never really an issue within that building do want here. The afc south thoughts on faneuil. Yeah what do we got titans by one of five okay gave up five sacks to one guy last week colts plus one forty. Probably one of my three least favorite quarterbacks in the league. Jags nine to one ridiculous texans. Thirteen to one. How did the texans have worse. Odds than the jaguars. Didn't people watch football. Just beat them Should we should put on. I don't know man for certainly thought about it. okay Underdog parlay possibilities dolphins plus one fifty six against the bills. I like panthers. Plus one sixty over.

"He's like guys a bad dude like he is literally the only player in combine history to to measure in. Its six four to thirty run. A sub four four five. Have a forty inch vertical. There's no other guys who fit that description. It's like him in calvin johnson. That's it so i can see a workload spike for him And it wouldn't shock me. If a player that explosive finished with something like fourteen hundred receiving yards and again like we saw him last year on about one hundred targets. Find the endzone double digit times. I i have no problem thinking he can do that again. All right andy. Let's move some extra breath advice for drafting coming up this weekend. That's obviously this weekend next weekend.

Give us some some some tips here. Some players that you think are flying under the radar. Anything that you think is actionable for our listeners and viewers fantasy football drafts up common. Yeah i think. I think one of the most interesting storylines going on right now actually relates to How how we value players. Who are clearly going to see a spike in adp and where they eventually land. I think mark was. Calloway is one of the most interesting stories out there because i mean it's only preseason football. He looks like a star. He looks like an absolute star. There's not going to be michael. Thomas right is james is going to be bombing to them. We know jameson tendencies. We know the callaway has pretty clearly established himself. Because everything's beat reporters told the so Like the team is screaming. At callaway is a clear breakout player. And he was a guy who like even a week ago. Like i mean i. I was in experts. Fantasy drafts a week ago and he was like a near final round. Flyer that people were taking Outside the top sixty receivers. I think he's gotta go as a top forty receiver right now. I wouldn't like i pull the trigger on mark west galloway at thirty five thirty six If i'm if i'm staring down i dunno brandin cooks and that lot and i'm looking at marquis calloway's player who could really pop this year. I think i'd go for the new guy. I think i'd go for the new and more interesting. Blair physically. He's got every tool that you'd want. He's clearly got james's i like. I think he's a huge winner from this winston situation. So i think he's one storyline and then i think another obviously the the rams backfield situation where i've seen every possible. Take on this on the henderson sony. Michelle situation. I think sony michelle is going to be a thing. I don't like darrell henderson's a fine player. He's not some transcended runner. He's not he's not some guy who deserves absolutely every touch that he can possibly get. So i'm i'm going to be surprised sony. Michelle was not a thing. My own feeling is that they're adp should move very close together..

"Joke every time because you had to pick a twelve two picks each time and every time you made those two picks. I thought it's like i'm picking this team for atom. It is so good. I told jamie. I sent him a private message during the draft and said this is the best team. Adam has ever drafted and then us at the same thing. If it's the best you ever dreamt soviet must be. I think you've found the secret to success the way that you can up your game in fantasy football yet. jamie draft. Your team didn't you he. Yeah yeah so. We did the live stream on tuesday night. I was supposed to be there. We had a personal thing family thing. Come up and i couldn't be there for it and jamie and heath whoever else was doing it. I don't know you guys just absolutely crushed it amazing. Yeah it was pretty much every every turn jamie got one pick and i got one and i learned so in all seriousness. I feel like. I would have made it pretty similar to this. But there's one thing that looking at the roster that i learned that i really like and this is the this is a team that is pretty strong everywhere except maybe tight end and if i have a late pick look at this team. Twelve team. full start three receivers and affleck's that prescott jonathan taylor and chris carson stefan digs. Dj more brandin cooks flexes. Devante williams and james white and pr and the tight ends or no offense nerve smith. I love i love it. I'm a little bit. We don't have a top six tight end but this is a great roster build. I think dave hates brandin cooks but besides he's a number three receivers one of the last starters drafted you go taylor digs you. Go carson dj. More i'm assuming yeah. I believe that i took dj moreover tyler lockett. Jamie accused me of doing it. So i could get tyler. I told them actually. You hate tire. lockets you know. i don't know if i would take it more. But i was thinking somebody in that range. And then you go. You go dak and davante williams at the five. Sit at the five six and then you go. Brandin cooks and our fans guessing. That's i think it went no fan then. Brennan cooks But yeah it was. That was the way it went. I love it is. This team is terrific. And it's really making me realize that if i don't get top six tight end. It's fine because i loaded. I think at all my starting positions and yvonne williams isn't great. You throw in james white as a perfectly fine. Pr flex start the year. Thank you heath. Good job those. Some of those words that you're saying are like words that you said throughout various podcasts. And i was saying them on the stream last night specifically the james white adam loves james white late late because if something goes wrong you can just throw him in your flex and you've got ten to twelve points every week. I thought you were going to talk about what i just said..

"Very other jackson top. One hundred list aside from watson Let me take a lot so has to be was on there. I don't remember. What number was i. Put my long doubt. So you gotta tell us. I would imagine tunsil. I can't there can't be anybody else on there. There's no way no. It wasn't a look. Obviously a former texan from last season. Jj watt was in the sixties still. Yeah it's the respect. The name who he is. That's more and i love jd. That's probably more lifetime achievement award. Absolutely tunsil is seventy five. Okay i can deal with that that that's probably about right question you'd ask. How many tackles are in front of real question to you brought a beasley making it earlier. That's that's a lot off of a good team and couldn't talk if you put brandin cooks and beasley spot. I think broncos private better player not crazy wall. I think brandin cooks would catch a lot of ball. I think he'd be really good. Yeah he's faster after the catch. He's a he's a really good point. I'm not sure case for brandin cooks to be in the top one hundred necessarily but i think it shows you a lot like bazeley. Great possession guy fits their purvey fits in perfectly what they're yeah you're right i completely understand. I think you could take some good players like clerks and put on there and say okay. You're getting the same value. probably yeah but yeah i offense. That team gets probably the credit. It deserves buffalo. But defensively was sean mcdermott. They don't get it and they're gonna have to. When you get to the postseason seeing in kansas city or cleveland or whoever that. Afc team is going to be in your way or two. They play offense and it'll be their defense it rears at ted. We talk so much about their offense but you can tell by the respect. They have davis whites ninety four ninety five and he's a good player. Yeah but it's players and players know and there are certain things we may not see. They may say well white while a good ball hawk and catches the ball. Maybe they don't think he's great against press players that have played against him wherever the voting goes right. Maybe they hear from team. That's right they don't like this guy's much and maybe the hurts boat. Yeah there's an. It's not an exact science on this but it is a i can't do. The players voted for colby's with his crazy off-season. I wonder if she had no kidding with the with the vaccine. I wonder who the law. How many times a guy is made number one on this. Since they've been doing it has been the first guy like five probably over the last. yeah i would've. He's telling me he's like the mike trout of this. I would imagine right has had it three times. There can't him doing. I mean they have not been ten years. Donald has had at once and rogers is hot at once. And that's going for the people who are in the top ten right now but brady had it three times. Two thousand mahomes number one last year Donald i think it was a year. They won the super bowl so maybe not last year. The donald still tomorrow one last year. So i had to be possibly homes a year before. So yeah it's top man. The quarterback physicians tough and a guy like kylo murray. Where did i don't know where he showed up in this. But he rises and plays great this year. you'll see him creep closer to the top. One of these rookies. If they have a great season as a quarterback never know i mean players players can see some things in And as long as it's not a lifetime achievement award for somebody. And i get why they do it but i don't have any problem. Those names we mentioned the top ten hard to take anybody out to put somebody else. In people who have been number one braid myles garrett would have been one that i would have said he would not hire. They think watson better pass rusher better all around player. What brady was number one in two thousand eleven. Aaron rodgers in two thousand twelve has been ten years. Adrian peterson in two thousand thirteen. Peyton manning in two thousand fourteen Jj watt thousand fifteenth. Right cam newton. Sixteen tom brady in both seventeen and eighteen. Aaron donald two thousand nineteen lamar jackson twenty twenty. So patrick mom's not number one ever yet and. jj watt. They should outside it twice and brady three times. Aeronautics had then you say toy well one time okay yeah. Brady's the only one who's had more than one suicide cam newton year number. Yeah no. I'm just saying like he's heard that we didn't post mvp. And i would imagine it back to you. Tie yesterday you said. Jj watt was number one and then aaron donald later so to defensive players have been number one over the last decade than that. It's been off quarterbacks. A running back. Yeah for the most part one other nasr. Qb's correct correct. Yeah yeah one running back back. Those peterson be anybody. Would there's going to be anybody got it would have been derek after two thousand yards. But yet and the unfortunate thing you wanna quarterbacks put a big dig at the ball in their hand people are always going to reward them a little bit more now. It is surprising. Mahomes chance of number one will. I would have voted number one lamarcus. It's gotta be at this year. I would vote i would. I would make the case going to be number one every year for the next ten years. We'll wanting mvp air rogers he very well may be the number one guy but picking this. It's not for the previous the best player on the league. Yeah who's the best player in league. He's the mike trout football right now. The best defensive player of the year is two guys. Are i mean overall. It's been aaron. Donald and tj watt when you're talking about specialized pass rusher. It's either tj water or myles garrett but aaron donald is the best football player on defense in the league period. But you're right. I don't know how mahomes it's just what he's done to change franchises. Unbelievable up next in the trenches with the fellas. They back right both md.

"I might just disagree with that in in theory although one of mine might have a one oh five eighty p now that i think about it No the only one. I would really say i disagree with is the no texans before route ten. I think brandin cooks has done enough throughout his career that he should be drafted before around ten. I think even if it's him and tyrod taylor for seventeen games going to be worth more than around him promises that it won't be him in toronto taylor for more than seventeen games. They will eventually and things over to davis mills. Who makes me nervous and win. Brand cooks was doing that whole boomer. Busting for four straight years it was drew brees. It was tom brady he got to. La worked with jared goff for awhile. I'm not sure on what's modular taylor. Yeah well toronto taylor. In that same category by strategy in terms of good you know that's one thing but in terms of passing yards. He you know how much more prolific passer than than tire than tyrod. Taylor ever has been. Yeah the you know. It's it's tough to at brandin cooks and and use his career to make a statement about what you expect this year. He says never been in a situation like this but just in terms of a guy you just figure he's gonna get peppered with targets on the arguably the worst team in football they're going to have to throw and he's so much better than everyone else on the team can't couldn't you. Don't think david he could be worth a top one hundred pick. No certainly going in the top one hundred. Yeah n- i don't know if i've taken him even once. I think the difficulty is because you mentioned adam that tyrod..

Yup chenault kenyan drake james. Connor david johnson. Back to jake now. The nice thing about these mock drafts on sleeper is that the pixel within about two seconds. They come quick. So you've got to be ready ready to go right away here so Looking back really happy. That's got it. There have been so mad at myself if i would have been looking at my psyche. So happy went that way and then it's worked out perfectly. Hit this pick is easy for me. It's brandin cooks efan with alan. I will i love wearing like it. I was hoping he would make it back to me. But i didn't think he would make it through to picks years no Best thing about me being brandin cooks truth or is that there are few and far of us between so i'm gonna get cooks in almost every league. I want him in. So i'm going to have dang near one hundred percent exposure as your wide receiver. Three yep a wide receiver one on the crappy. Football team leads to good fancy things up high volume might like you said wide receiver three. I'm not upset about it despite the unknown question mark or the unknown a quarterback room emphasis on unknown. What to expect with that davis mills. Tyrod taylor ain't gonna be watson have funneled cooks i'd after cook's goes aaron rodgers and roggio back to me all right so we have two running backs three wide receivers can kinda work on some flex..

"How does you know if he you know. He gets the bulk of the targets. In you know he becomes a red zone. You know threat with the patriots. But we'll have to wait and see what that so then after that. I have the wide receiver for the colts. Michael pittman low on my mock draft. I put him very late. You know. I definitely think he could be the top target in this colts offense. You know the. Ty hilton is aging. You know he's not the ty hilton was you know four or five years ago. You know and michael pittman. He was okay last year. And i definitely think you know carson wentz is going to you know. Use him and have him as a target along with ty hilton When i think michael pittman he could be a guy that could be flex option. You know maybe even wide receiver to on your team you know. I definitely think he'd go a little bit sooner. But i don't know. I just feel like you know this. Is you know where. I put him and you know again. The mock draft is not perfect. I i don't think it is perfect by any means but you know this is where i put him i do think that carson wentz i it's going to he's going to help carson wentz out. He's definitely going to help them out. And yeah he's a guy that you know is looking to make a jump in year two so then after him. I have the wide receiver for the houston. Texans believe it or not brandin cooks now. I feel like brandin cooks. You know. I think he could do all right. I mean he's definitely probably the best fantasy option on houston right now. Outside of if to shawn watson does play you know and cooks had a nice year with houston last year you know and with or going down with the suspension you now that you know that that kind of opened the door for more targets for brandin cooks and he did have some big games was definitely a solid flex option for me last year when i picked him up in fantasy You know and and i do think that you know brand cooks. I mean. I don't know i really don't know what his contract situation is. And stuff like that. But i do believe that someone could swoop in i if houston is gonna do bad this year which i think they. Will you know someone could swoop in and get brandin cooks in charge to trade for him. And i think brandon cooks got traded to a contender. You know that definitely would be something that. I would keep in mind because i don't think houston's contending for anything this year other than maybe like the number one overall pick or a top five pick in so. I think that have cooks got traded to a contender that definitely would increase his fantasy value. And i think maybe that's something that some people got. Keep in mind that something. I really haven't talked about but yeah i mean this is probably a place where brandon cooks could yet take and i just feel like you know with what was what's going on houston if shawn watson does play. It's a different story than cokes. Maybe be a little bit higher. But i think because of the uncertainty with everything going on i mean he is in training camp which i really cannot believe i really did. Not talk to shawn watson for a very long time. Because i just you know. I didn't know what the the the story is. That i had no idea he was gonna play. I mean he's just got so much stuff going on. You know off the off the field stuff and you know it's something. I don't want to talk about it. This is a fantasy football podcast. Want again to all the legal stuff and you know all that just because you know. It's it's not something that you know. I wanna get into because again. Fantasy football podcast. You know But you know if the shawn watson does play this season brandin cooks definitely would be higher in the mock draft. But because you know. I still don't think the sean is going to play in own. I still think you know. We're gonna see tyrod taylor you know. Be the you know the quarterback or whoever else they have on their roster could be the quarterback. I would say that you know this is probably a good spot to put him. However like i said he could possibly get traded to a contender. I do think that can happen. You know so if that does happen you know. That's something to keep an eye on because you know he goes to a team that needs a wide receiver. That's in contention and you know that. That definitely helps his numbers in. Oh you know that's something. Fancy people got to keep in mind. So yeah brandin cooks next player on my mock draft so then after that. I have the running back for the jacksonville. Jaguars travis etienne obviously was a running back for clemson and you know urban meyer one of the draft him for trevor lawrence and i think you know of course. Trevor lawrence is definitely. You know thrilled to have his running back on his team. Continue their journey together from college into the nfl You know one of the interesting things. In the off season was that urban meyer. Was you know trying amount at wide receiver. He's taking a wide receiver. Et an and you know now. You gotta wide receiving core that consists marvin dj charge and chenault who is also was going to be expert in my mock draft. So all kind of talk about both of them. You know. it really doesn't make sense as to why you know. He was being tried out at the wide receiver spot. I think it's just because they got a lotta backfield with james robinson and carlos hyde. You know i. I think that's really the only thing i would say you know. I think that's the only thing you can really think about is. Maybe just because of the loaded backfield guys talented so you wanna give them more reps. You know you want him to be on the field but they could definitely do like to running back sets and stuff like that you know it's going to be interesting You know. I feel like if an injury does happen or somebody. Is you know if urban meyer wants to ride the hot hand. Hopefully you know. Then that's a different story. But i think as of right now. Just because of the uncertainty with jacksonville's backfield. I think these guys like james robinson. Net tanner gonna be taken later. And james robinson he was a solid fantasy. Pick last year. You know my friend picked him up after week. One and i. And i picked up malcolm brown so you know if i would have just been like. Oh you know this. James arms and guy was pretty good. Maybe i should get him instead of getting malcolm brown because every week for the rams it was a new running back james robinson you know was really the only guy. There that you know was running the football Because i believe that guy armstead that the giants picked up. You know he was supposed to be there running back running back and he got hurt so then they put in james robinson james robinson was pretty good. You know so. It's kind of unfortunate for james robinson. Just because of the season that he had and now you've got this crowded backfield in. But i will have to see what happens but espn. Yeah he's on here and then While he was the next year. And then i have chenault. La- viscous chenault He had a pretty good season last year. You know. I definitely think you know if an injury happen. Same thing with atf. Injury happens like to chart marvin jones. This guy is going to see an increase in targets and this receiving core is pretty good for. Jacksonville is very underrated receiving core. I like it a lot i think. Trevor lawrence is in a good situation. He does have a decent amount of weapons around him. Chenault is one of them now if it wasn't for dj charge and marvin jones. I think should definitely would be a little bit higher my mock draft but because those two guys are on this team i feel like you know. He's kind of the third option in terms of the wide receiver spots so. Yeah that's kind of with the jacksonville. Jaguars players then after chenault. I have the running. Back for the raiders kenyan drake..

"And then we'll get into all the quarterback stuff. What am i missing here. Because they was talking about who. He's upset that he's not offered the shawn watson news. I understand he reported to camp. He reported to camp because he doesn't want to get fine fifty thousand dollars a day and that's going to happen if he doesn't report he's not he's not any closer playing is he. Well they also the texans are. We just said he wanted to talk about well. I we work. Texans are open a trading. And i thought that was the bigger news right. Okay yeah i guess it just felt okay fine. I'll play that game. Hey he the. Texans are opened the trading to shawn watson and emailer similar. Well i mean you know if if that situation can be hard to find a better receiving core brandin cooks and anthony miller But maybe he can find a good snow. This made me. And i don't know that it matters too much and i'm really uncomfortable with drafting john watson at all at any point but it made me feel like a slight glimmer of hope that maybe there's a chance that the shawn watson does play a decent amount this year and obviously it's a moral conundrum for fantasy managers. We're going to let you decide that we're not everyone. We're not going to tell you what to do you. Yes for everyone absolutely for fan for franchises as well we know that his his court case is not going to be until after the season. So yeah and to be clear at this point. He has no criminal charges or criminal investigation. Right that i know the vote. i know. Say that without knowing for sure. I thought that they did open a criminal investigation. I will look it up but right now. Strike pets if i'm wrong. Yeah and that's i think the thing keep in mind first off the two teams that seem the most likely to be interested in trading shawn watson. There's the report. Our jonathan jones was on. Cbs sports. you're talking about this Philadelphia so for those of you in dynasty leagues. You gotta be a little concerned about jalen hurts and the miami you know because they have also shown express some interest from reports and they those are the two teams that have i think the assets that the texans would be looking for which according to chris. Mortensen are five of have phrase compensation of five things in return draft picks in players for twenty twenty one so it could be three picks as we've heard me first round picks into players so for example philadelphia. Let's give you three. I trump give the texas three first round. Picks jalen hurts and zakar. It's for example if they wanted to make a trade like that happen the secondary part this and this is factors in anthony. Miller is if by chance shawn watson plays or they get a quarterback upgrade over to rod taylor in davis mills. Let's jalen hurts. Let's say to sung by. Let's say it's another veteran. that comes back. new turn. Brandin cooks his value is going to be particularly pretty good..

"He was going to be a starting quarterback this year. I thought he was done with all the off the field stuff and just him being so disgusted with what the texans have done over the course of the past couple seasons now that he's supposedly going to training camp and he may be starting quarterback this year. I mean that changes a lot because he is arguably a top three quarterback in the league and if he does play this year he's gonna put a really big numbers and he increases the draft stock for guys like brandin cooks and the texans just traded for anthony miller who played previously played for the bears wide receiver. Got him got randall. Cobb you have kiki cutie. You have these guys. And then you have. That loaded backfield with philip lindsay. David johnson mark ingram. So if the shawn watson comes in and is quarterback this year texans. Offense is going to put up points one hundred percent. They were a hundred percent to put up points. They're not they're still not going to be a very good team but they are definitely going to put up points now again. This is this is a little bit of an overreaction because you know it just came out he you know and i can't. I can't even believe that. There's a possibility that shawn watson can play. 'cause i really to be honest with all the off the field stuff and everything like that. I did not think there was a chance that he was going to play this year. And now he's possibly going to be playing this year and well they will not even that but he's going to be showing up to training camp so that's just a small step in to you. Know him possibly playing. And i listen. I you know it's it would unfortunately stink without him because you know he's one of the marquee players in this league and you know he's a guy that you know you love to watch him play and obviously a lot of you know off. The field stuff has happened. That's kind of changed his image a little bit. I mean everybody was kind of in his corner what he was doing with the texans. But you know certain things came out. And i'm not going into details with that but you know with all that stuff you know it. It kind of you know changed. Everybody's opinion on them and now really nobody. Nobody i. I would say really. Nobody's kind of in his corner as much as They were previously but you know if he does come back and he does play for the texans in this upcoming season. He's going to be one of the first cuba taken off the board. He is really talented. And you know again that raises the draft stock for pretty much. Everybody that's on the texans offense Now by that much. I think really the best guy to take brandin cooks. Brandin cooks really did have a good season last year for houston at now. They will fuller so brandon cups. Brennan cooks as the first is the number one option now for this team and you know producer shawn watson does come back and play. He's going to be really good With the shawn watson but you know as the running backs it's just it that that's still a clustered backfield. I mean you probably still stay away from that but you know. We'll see what happens with that. Also some other small stuff now so dede westbrook the wide receiver for the jaguars will now not with jaguars anymore. He signed with the vikings. So that kinda gives the vikings a third wide receiver. So now i was talking about. How irv smith junior. He's gonna kinda jump up and be that number three option. I still think he probably can be in. Dd west will definitely fight for targets as that number three option for minnesota doesn't really impact eland in deland dig stealing and justin jefferson. No i don't think it does. Those are the number one and number two wide receivers. I don't think dede westbrook shirley gonna take anything away from them. So i don't really think there's anything to worry about there but that is still a nice. I think it's a decent signing for the vikings again it gives them another wide receiver to work with also other news Chandler jones is reportedly requested a trade from arizona. And this is something you know that i kind of didn't expect. But he's kind of unhappy with his contract situation and you know you had him and. Jj watt did those two guys have been the sack leaders for the past. i there was a statistic. I think last couple of years they they were one and two in sacks and you know the the cardinals defense again. it's not going to be dominant this year. But with those two guys you expected them to be a really good pass rush and now he wants out now. He's still expected to report to training camp but if he gets out and he doesn't wanna play for the cardinals that does hurt the cardinals defense and i think the cardinals defense definitely would get drafted. You know a lot more than it has been because of those two guys but now if you take chandler jones out of the picture. Jj watt who has dealt with injuries over the past couple of years last year. He i think he was relatively healthy for last year but dealt with injuries basically his whole career. And now you're getting ready getting rid of chandler jones and hassan radic went to carolina. You know so it would. Now you have an aging. Jj watt as your best pass rusher. I just don't i don't like that. So and that..

I'm not very optimistic about it this week. Either if out to that's a situation to avoid to straightness practices for. Aj brown the study for the titans with an ankle issue. This'll probably be around friday. I'll be looking at the most on practice tomorrow but take out. That's certainly a big blow to receivers out already for carolina. This week have christian mccaffrey. But also without dj more curtis samuel kobe. Nineteen list or both of those guys robby anderson. He's gonna get a ton of targets brandin cooks. We thought he might have had a fifth or sixth. I think it's now six concussion last week when he ended up medical tent. It looks like it's more of a neck injury foot issue. I am optimistic.

"I sit out the way New Orleans versus Las Vegas raters. We saw New Orleans showcase really really solid, really great defensive performance against Tom. Brady and the buccaneers They were pretty on disappointed as a team, lot of penalties on their defensive side of the front. The saints rebel to take advantage of that. La Raiders played against the Carolina Panthers last week and gave up thirty points. It's very possible that New Orleans doesn't look as Resi as they did against a really solid defensive front in Tampa. Bay and they might have their way with a raiders team that is still kind of pretty young and trying to get their footing and all this stuff. They don't they had an injury to majority of their wide receivers in the last game. So Dan, Waller seems to be their only solid option. At the receiving side of things that might mean there in Waller's uptick in target's share and my means, he gets an ends on this year or this week maybe something good happens for him I'm buying all the stock now I'm Kamara right now for this game, this should be Alvin Kamara. KAMERA's two touchdown, a hundred yards from scrimmage plus game. This is this is the one I wouldn't see why would be any otherwise and to be quite frank. I think that a lot of players on seem to have a really big game and this would be a really fun game to see trae Kwan Smith. I'm going to bring them up again. This'll be a fun game Trey Smith. Look to be a solid. Relieving game just for brevity and sake of saving saints, fans of fantasy fans alike, some worry as to what the saints offense can look like without Michael Thomas Soaking up a lot of the defensive pressure. All right. So Fancy implications all over the place you know Josh Jacobs. This could be a really good test to see just how much they believe in Josh Jacobs as a pass catcher because I don't know how much he's going to be able to do in the run game considering New Orleans is when had and still does on one of the better run defenses in all the football. I think the best game. Pound for pound this week has to be the night game on NBC, where New England is playing against Seattle that they're going to be playing in Seattle New England the we have a kind of banged up cam and she says it's the there's no hamstring issue but. Of Most people are saying that he does, Kinda. Have a little bit of a hamstring thing going on and we'll see how that affects him with all read option stuff and what we saw from last Sunday's performance maybe we started to see cam throw a little bit more, and then we can really see just what this doing his offense really has to offer for them sure that bill will have them ready for whatever and we saw sea hawks offense that basically let Russell Wilson do what people have been asking. Them to let Russell. Wilson do for basically the majority of the back half of the dense. You know twenty seventeen was to let Russ Cook and Cook did Russell Wilson? Do He only missed four passes? He had A. Great amount of yardage great touchdown passes de que look. Nice at times he did have some drops of course, Tyler Lockett looked really good. Chris Carson looked amazing. In the past game. We had some really good screens run in for touchdowns. They got tight ends involved the plethora tight ends at the seahawks own and their defense was literally flying around all over the place. Now, there are a lot of garbage time touchdown stuff in that Falcons game that I'm not GonNa hold against the defense when it mattered. Jamal Adams and of course. Everybody else in that defense just looked phenomenal. They just looked physical. They looked like they were flying around and making plays they look very formidable as team very formidable. So. That is a game as the May have a lot of implemented implications on things so KEEP IN MIND I think one of the better secondaries in the League is New England's granted they played against. The, dolphins but they did not allow that many receptions or receiving yards at all for either receiver on the dolphins and Tyler Lockett, and care very athletic fast guys but. It's going to be tough. Is GonNa be a tough about we'll see what happens. They may have to change up the strategy of leading Russ Cook for this game in particular and work through the old tried and true run the ball and try to make something happen later on in the game. But for US Russell Wilson owners like myself I hope they just let him throw the ball a little bit more that'd be nice. That would be fun I think we'd all like to enjoy that. So moving on towards another game I think the Baltimore Game at four, twenty, five eastern standard time on CBS is going to be a good one, Baltimore versus Houston. This game can go I think Houston is a team that kid look Jacqueline Hyde and they've been jekyll and Hyde ever since the Shawn Watson is come on that team and. Not Sage. It's the Sean played bad last Thursday. But he definitely did not look comfortable one hundred percent of the time and you just was trying to make plays. His offensive line wasn't there fully stout at all and when it was time to just throw throw throw things Kinda got out of hand for Houston Houston can't be a team that gets to behind too quickly or else it is going to be nightmarish for the offensive line. And it's going to be a bad day for Shawn Watson even though he can make miracles happen at will while Samour's in perfect position to take on a team that showcase bad tackling display. So this is a team. So if this is the time where you want to be like, okay JK Dobbins, he didn't have that many targets but hey, he got two touchdowns in is the time to test out the JK Dobbins is going to be. The album? Kamara. To Marketing Rooms Mark Ingram. So we'll see what happens here Lamar he this seem doesn't tackle well, Lamar could have himself a anywhere closer to forty to fifty yards rushing easily against this team if he wants it, and of course, Mark Andrews is a guy who I would think would eat very well against the Houston team that allowed drivers Kelsey to get like five catches in the first half with ease marched up and down the field with ease Look to see how David Johnson looks in his second bout. David Johnson had a nice surprise of a Comeback Week one performance that a lot of people were speculating was possible and he delivered for the most part. So that was encouraging for many people to go ahead and see so I wouldn't. Put it past him to do it once again. That's really really against the I think that Brandin cooks is still a bit. So that would not be. Great for folks owners. And I would be looking at anybody who has. Willie snead Willie snead was all over the place last week and it was almost to a shocking amount of how much willie snead was dependent on and I said Willie snead. That was not who I meant to say I meant to say will fuller will fuller will around the field for the Texans last week and I would like to see him continue that stretch because that would be. Pretty awesome to be completely honest. I. Would like to see a will fuller healthy and showcasing that he is here to stay in this league and thus it would not make me feel nearly as bad for short.

Monocle 24: The Foreign Desk
Tear Down This Wall: The resistance
"The I on curtain was not the creation of a mindset or a system which had any time for dissent. The curtain was at its height. Seven thousand in Columbus of wires watchtowers walls fences minefields and sentry posts stretching from the Arctic Tundra Finland to the Black Sea coast of Greece. This old dedicated to preventing captive people's from fleeing somewhere they might speak think and vote freely. Nevertheless there was resistance courageous inventive and surprisingly rarely violent it took foams as different as the imprison nations of Eastern Europe would different in this third episode of the foreign discs series reflecting on the thirtieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. We look at Poland where the regime Asia was confronted by a trade union and joined by Pope the country then known as Czechoslovakia where revolution was led by poets playwrights and rockstars and Romania the only one of eastern Europe's liberation struggles of nineteen thousand nine to descend into bloodshed. This is the foreign desk. My impression of the strike in the Lenin shipyard was that this was going to happen as they were going to get way because there was nothing credible calm about the way people are going about the strike. There there was no panic. There was no drinking no rushing around people were just waiting for the government to give in and the government did get enough to series of public negotiation. I mean we knew something something was going on but we still wear not sat in that be able to live to see the end all the system. We knew Tom Unsustainable in the long run but most of our perspective close sustainable for longer than our lives about the thing about people on television television or a heads of the secret believes in the army and they were giving contradictory instructions to people in the field but there was fighting on on the streets. Nobody knew who was on whose side and the sea turns out of course neither there or no sides there was a single side and the churches were along and they had no loyal troops in August. One thousand nine hundred eighty a group of workers at the Lenin shipyards in Gdansk went Own Strike they called their fledgling trade union solidarity and hoisted a Groovy flag based on Poland's national banner with the Solidarity Name emblazoned in red on the White Stripe in cheerful friendly font within a year of its foundation solidarity had ten million members within within a decade. It had the country a few weeks after the Berlin Wall fell solidarity leader Falesa an electrician by trade was elected. President President of Poland Kristof Bobbin. Ski Is the President of Union and Polska a pro European think tank in Wausau. He's also the former Warsaw correspondent Brandin of the Financial Times. He picks up the story in Gdansk. In the summer of nineteen eighteen to strike in the shipyard had two phases one was a phase which which went from about this Thursday to the Saturday afternoon when the shipyard authorities the management gave into the demands and tell people go home that he said we've we've got the money or go home and at that point it was. The younger workers also led by young dissidents. I suppose who went round the ship out saying don't go home. The strike is not over people out there in the restive discuss still on strike. They were driving around in this small electric electric trucks telling the people not to go home and a lot of people go home but enough state from the Saturday afternoon and I arrived on the Saturday Saturday afternoon and I saw young people saving shy making it continue into the Sunday. On the Sunday people started coming back on the Monday morning people came back and strike got underway big strike on underway. So actually I had the impression that it was actually a young people's movement at that moment it was saved by the young people by the shipyard workers wasn't quite solidarity then because it was formed as it were off the strikes extended but my impression of the strike in the Lenin shipyard was that this was gonna happen this they were going to get their way because it was incredible calmness about the way people we're going about the strike. That was no panic. There was no drinking. There was no rushing around people. Were just waiting for the government to give it and the government did give enough to series the public negotiations and is the reason for those public negotiations were a certain number of Social demands pay demands but also the the main demand with for this supplements of independent unions

Michael Brown's father demands case re-opening 5 years after fatal shooting
"You missed out a medieval times john. I was the night before bowling right and then you were the night after medieval times and what i hear you made the apps you're like who is it lauren hill that does concerts and shows up an hour and a half late and sings for ten thousand leaves that was you i was there on time then i was like kaiser soza and you're gone which isn't a bad move but they did get one very good picture of you in a what looks depite dr yeah medieval garb and they actually gave me a mace <hes> so venice mason amazed by the way big question today. Is this straight edge mace or or is this venice mace girl in the straight edge. The guy in the back is yelling. Venice mace which basically is is whether or not mason shows up stoned but i think you had to drive straight edge medicines straight edge mace someday. I'll do a show where orig- venice mace and everybody will invite be invited to see exactly how stupid i am actually make the show better yeah hey so. Are you gonna watch the ram game tomorrow night yeah. I'm gonna watch what are you watching for. The rams are are not gonna play any of the starter correct so what your but your big ram fan yep like. I said i watch most of the charger game last night. Actually the chargers looked okay. They lost but they played a lot of backups so the rams are gonna play nothing but back right. What are you watching four. What are you interested in well number. One is <hes> darryl henderson the running back out of memphis who's going to get <hes> reps tomorrow night and who i think because gonna figure into the offense this year in a little background on him. He averaged almost seven yards of touch right at memphis and he's the person i've heard him. Most compared to is darren sprains. He's a very fast third down back who can both run and catch yeah so i wanna see what he looks like because i think with the rams a ah given how todd girlies knee is sort of a question mark. I like malcolm brown. A lot and i want to see what darrell henderson's got in the secondary. I'm looking for taylor rap wrap. Who i think is gonna play tomorrow night. Taylor app is a safety who is gonna be eric. Wells backed up and it's going to see i think significant time this year so i wanna see taylor rap out of washington and then i wanna see actually i'm kind of curious. See blake bortles yeah. I wonder how much he's going to play but that is an upgrade jeered garbage upgrade. Your golf for a young guy has not missed much time once he was given that starting job. I don't think he's mr mr start yet and the amount of time sean manion played as goths backup or very limited but blake bortles is a series blake bortles a former top five picking the n._f._l. Ralph experience right and so i think by the way who's the third string quarterback brandon allen so he's gonna play tonight yeah tomorrow night but i'm expecting to see bortles last year. Manion played a lot it preseason and <music>. I'm expecting to see bortles so bortles henderson. Who is the texas am receiver lesser. Josh miranda reynolds he could play you know a lot of people think that josh josh reynolds is is going to be an impact either share. They've got really four receivers to go to they've got robber woods and obviously brandin cooks and cooper cup and josh reynolds is going to be a guy who figures into the offense.
