00:00George, let's start off with the Carolina Panthers.

00:02Xavier Leggett, 29 catches, 284 yards, and four touchdowns.

00:08Seems like every game I watch that this guy plays,

00:10they're always saying really good things about this player.

00:13But I have yet to really see a full breakout here.

00:17Four touchdowns for him on the season.

00:20Adam Thielen is coming back very soon, if not this week.

00:24Is Leggett somebody to still hold on to?

00:27I feel like he's a nice Dynasty play,

00:28but I don't know that he is a guy that I would

00:31hold the rest of this year.

00:33Yeah, I think you and I agree here.

00:34I think a Dynasty league, maybe even a keeper league,

00:37depending on how many players you can keep, yeah,

00:38you want him.

00:39As far as this year, his upside is limited.

00:42I think Thielen returning, which as you sort of mentioned there

00:44is questionable this week, will certainly

00:46help take some of the defensive coverage away.

00:49Trevor Hubbard's played great there,

00:50so there is a running game.

00:52But what are you expecting?

00:54I don't think they do all that much damage against Kansas City

00:56this week.

00:58And next week, there's no bye, so you're probably

01:00not starting him next week.

01:01I mean, I could see you wanting him for week 14

01:03when it's bye again and again with six more teams out here,

01:06but I just don't see the upside here.

01:07I just don't.

01:08I would assume you're going to have better on your roster.

01:10Now, once again, maybe you have no choice this week.

01:13All right, I said you have Chase, you have Higgins,

01:16whoever else might be out, London, Mooney.

01:19OK, you got to start him.

01:21I understand that.

01:22But after that, you could certainly move on,

01:23or you should be able to move on from him.

01:25He's not someone you're going to miss.

01:27How about that?

01:28I just don't see it.

01:29Keeper, Dynasty League, a little different.

01:31Redraft League, you should be able to move on.

01:34Yeah, I think so.

01:35I think the same could be said for Romeo Dobbs of the Green

01:38Bay Packers.

01:39Too much of a coin flip with all these wide receivers,

01:41and George, it feels like he's moved his way down at least

01:44to the number three wide receiver,

01:46maybe even beyond Wicks.

01:47Dobbs is a drop for me.

01:50Yeah, I think I'm going to go with you here as well here.

01:52Too many cooks in the kitchen, right?

01:54Watson, Dobbs, Wicks, Reid.

01:55You don't know who's going to be the guy week in and week out.

01:58Dobbs had the one nice week after he got suspended,

02:01he got the touchdown.

02:01Once again, Squeaky Wheel may have gotten the grease there.

02:04And even Jordan Love really hasn't been that guy this year.

02:07Jordan Love is pretty much drafted

02:08as a top eight quarterback.

02:09He just hasn't been it for whatever reason there.

02:12Another tough matchup this week against San Fran,

02:14although I'm the first person to tell you,

02:16that San Fran defense is not what it used to be.

02:18So I was about to say I wouldn't be afraid to start him,

02:21but yeah, I still would.

02:23I still don't know which guy it's going to be.

02:25Even Christian Watson, I'm not thrilled about either.

02:26Jaden Reid, I'm not thrilled about.

02:28I don't know which guy or guys it's

02:30going to be week in and week out for the Green Bay Packers.

02:33All right, now we move on to a player that I think

02:35has some nice upside here.

02:37But the question is, will he ever

02:39be a big part of the offense?

02:40That's Ricky Pearsall of the San Francisco 49ers.

02:43You know, had that unfortunate shooting

02:46incident in the offseason, but really

02:47seems to be someone they want to get involved.

02:49But George, how long can you hang on to him?

02:51The 49ers offense just hasn't been good all year.

02:55I mean, I like Ricky Pearsall.

02:57I think he's going to be a useful player for them.

03:00I just don't know what's going to be in this fantasy season.

03:02It may be more down the line.

03:04Great story, came back from being shot here

03:05to return to the 49ers.

03:08This whole team is somewhat of a, I don't want to say a mess,

03:11but there's some problems here.

03:13And the problems just keep getting worse and worse.

03:15You lost Brandon Aiyuk, so you lost your main speed guy,

03:17which opens things up.

03:18George Kittle always seems to be banged up,

03:20which, hey, a lot of tight ends are.

03:22It's a brutal position between the blocking and the catching.

03:24You're an easy target once you catch

03:26the ball for hard tackles there.

03:28Debo Samuel, to me, I wonder there's an injury there

03:31that he can play through it, but he's not Debo Samuel

03:33because he's not really breaking anything.

03:35Maybe things change now that Christian McCaffrey is back,

03:38you know, so things will open up there.

03:40But Greg, Brock Purdy is also a huge problem this week.

03:43All right, yesterday, that final session in practice

03:47before they left, he didn't participate.

03:49He is questionable at best to play,

03:51and I don't know if he does.

03:53I just don't know if he does, and if he doesn't play,

03:54by the way, that's Brandon Allen.

03:57If Brandon Allen's your quarterback,

03:59I don't know if I want to start anybody here

04:00other than Christian McCaffrey.

04:02Maybe I would still start Kittle.

04:03You know, a tight end could be a quarterback's friend close,

04:06but watching Purdy's status is going to be very big

04:10over the rest of this weekend.
