And before we get into the nitty gritty, Pete, let our folks know a little bit about yourself, man.
2:12
Yeah.
2:13
You can find me at, on X at super Nova 38.
2:16
I'm over at player profiler as well.
2:20
Then I do do a sub stack, which a lot of my work lately has gone on over there.
2:25
Just some written content.
2:26
So there's a lot of weekly breakdowns, a lot of rankings, you know, data analysis and some betting stuff too.
RoccoHOST
3:37
That's where all of the assholes congregate.
10:45
No, would you, at face value right now, you know, if you're a contender, would you rather have Rashad White or Ja'Cory Kresge married?
10:53
Yeah, I mean, that's like the million dollar question right now.
10:56
I'd be lying if I told you that I had the correct answer here, but I would say that I do prefer Rashad White just solely off the fact that he's going to get the more high value touches, right? And when we look at these running backs, if you're not going to be a guy that's going to get massive volume in fantasy football, we need to then look at what's the next avenue for fantasy success and And to me, it's catching passes and being involved down at the goal line.
11:22
Rashad White has been a guy in his career with the Tampa Buccaneers where he might not be the most efficient guy, but he is a guy that scores down at the goal line.
11:30
He's a bigger body back.
11:32
He can wiggle his way in there and punch it in.
11:34
So I expect him to be involved there in the red zone at the goal line.

18:23
So I got to hear, you know, what is what's the take on the trade and why are you big on Pat Bryant?
13:30
Ju- just so I know, if you're drafting and you're at, say, the 103 and every wide receiver's available to you, are you going Puka?
13:38
No, for me, I, I am going Chase.
13:40
I mean, my projections, uh, I, I have Puka actually projected slightly higher, 19.3 versus Chase's 19.
13:48
I think the appealing thing for Chase is I, I, I do think he has more touchdown upside, and I know touchdowns aren't necessarily sticky.
13:55
But when we're talking elite players, I mean, we know Jamar Chase is gonna get into the end zone, and Puka's gonna get there too, but I worry more about Devonte in the red zone than I worry about Tee Higgins, who Higgins is still gonna get his as well.
14:07
I just feel like I'd rather...
14:09
These guys are neck and neck.
18:48
Like, this is one of those seasons where he's coming in healthy finally and looking really, really sharp, and everyone around the organization's like, "This is amazing." Like, we have, we have a Ferrari finally in the garage at wide receiver.
ChevHOST
37:48
What do you guys think?
37:50
Yeah, I, I, I don't think the, it...
37:52
I don't think it's necessary to move off of one of these quarter- I mean, yeah, you do.
37:56
I mean, you got Brock and Baker, and I totally, totally understand.
37:59
It's a 10-man league, right? So, you know, higher end assets are more important than depth, right? So I'm looking more for a tier up, and in this situation, I don't really think you're tiering up that much.
38:09
I mean, Chev laid it out perfectly.
38:10
Like, look, I have Brown rated ahead of Tett for this year, and your team's in prime position to win this year, especially if Nabers doesn't take too long to come back.

CaseyHOST
49:37
Right
ChevHOST
37:29
What do you guys think?
37:32
Yeah, I, I, I don't think the, it...
37:34
I don't think it's necessary to move off of one of these quarter...
37:36
I mean, yeah, you do.
37:37
I mean, you got Brock and Baker, and I totally, totally understand.
37:40
It's a 10-man league, right? So the, you know, higher end assets are more important than depth, right? So I'm looking more for a tier up, and in this situation I don't really think you're tiering up that much.
37:50
I mean, Chev laid it out perfectly.

11 MINS LATER

CaseyHOST
49:18
Right
5:54
I just don't know if I do trust the, the, the profile o- o- o- o- of the prospect here with Ty Simpson and the longevity that he might be able to have despite him being a top, you know, top 15 overall pick in the draft.
6:05
draft.Yeah, I'm, I'm, uh, I'm kinda there with you with Simpson.
6:11
What I would give pushback on is I expect his value to kinda hold, uh, you know, unless you, you know...
6:18
There's no real way for him to lose value, I feel like, here, right? Um, i- if anything, it, it...
6:25
He should gain value if, if Stafford goes down and it looks bad and, and we're saying, "Yeah, he's definitely not coming back next season.
6:31
He's gonna retire." That's where I see him losing value.
6:35
The only way he also lose...

34 MINS LATER

40:09
Between Tom Brady to Randy Moss, now it's gonna be Drake May to A.J. Brown, and I think there's going to be a lot of fantasy goodness to go around here once he lands in New England.
6:51
I just don't know if I do trust the, the, the profile o- o- o- o- of the prospect here with Ty Simpson and the longevity that he might be able to have, despite him being a top, you know, top 15 overall pick in the draft.
7:03
[lip smack] Yeah, I'm, I'm, uh, I'm kinda there with you with Simpson.
7:08
What I would give pushback on is I expect his value to kinda hold, uh, you know, unless you, you know...
7:15
There's no real way for him to lose value, I feel like, here, right? Um, i- if anything, it, it, he should gain value if, if Stafford goes down and it looks bad and, and we're saying, "Yeah, he's definitely not coming back next season.
7:28
He's gonna retire," that's where I see him losing value.
7:32
The only way he also lose...
7:33
Uh, sorry, gaining value.

34 MINS LATER

41:55
And I think there's going to be a lot of fantasy goodness to go around here once he lands in New England.
4:34
Mm
4:34
... that run game has struggled a lot over the last two years, we'll say.
4:39
Uh, I like Isiah Pacheco.
4:41
Uh, I think he was a nice find for them, but I look at him similar to Kyle Monangai.
4:47
I think both are actually Rutgers guys, ironically.
4:50
Um, but I look at similar, where it's like, hey, you found money in your pocket with this late round draft pick at running back, but you might need to bring in a little bit of juice and a little bit of a difference maker, and I think Kansas City's offense has really been missing that.
5:03
You had D'Andre Swift, who kind of had a bounce back season, 14.3 points per game, uh, last year in fantasy, 16th in fantasy, and that run game for the Bears looked really good, a nice one-two punch.

24 MINS LATER

29:01
Yeah.
22:55
Or is there anybody else you'd like to include here?
22:58
You know, I selfishly would love to add RJ Harvey because he did have a pretty good back half of the year.
23:06
But the amount that you spent on him, you know, definitely – you know, this is like a really – it's a really tough – conversation to have right he finishes at rb rb 18 on the year he's being drafted as right around there right about rb 16 ish to 20 i would say harvey was sometimes even a little later than that but harvey had a great back end of the year at the beginning of the year obviously not that great but i mean you're talking about from week 13 to week 17 he had three games of 20 or more fantasy points.
23:42
One of them was an 18.6 point game.
23:45
And then the lowest game was 10.5.
23:47
I mean, there was a stretch of five games there where he pretty much was giving you a floor of at least 18 points at the end of the year.
23:55
So it mattered the most.
28:42
Any of those stick out to you, or do you got someone else for me?
