00:00Craig, I might ask you, well, how do you define fantasy MVP?

00:07Is it someone like Saquon Barkley, you know, a late first round pick, second round pick

00:11here, Derek Henry, second round pick, they're having fantastic seasons here, or is it someone

00:15that you didn't draft, that no one drafted here, but you picked up during the season

00:19here?

00:20Someone like Baker Mayfield of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, right?

00:22Greg, this probably only applies to two quarterback leagues or super flex leagues, but he may

00:26not have been drafted or drafted late and is having a fantastic season, even without

00:30Mike Evans, who was hurt for a while.

00:32Chris Godwin's now up in the season, Baker Mayfield is still throwing touchdowns here.

00:36You think Cleveland would like, you think Cleveland would like to redo that whole trade,

00:39have Baker Mayfield be a starting quarterback, not champion Deshaun Watson.

00:42Don't give up all those picks for Deshaun, not to mention the headache though, the PR

00:46move that he made here.

00:47I think Mayfield goes off again on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers here, throws

00:52a touchdown or three touchdowns, what he does, he's made Cade Otten a top tight end

00:58in fantasy, right?

00:59I think that's how good Baker's been here.

01:02Bucky Irving, the running back, I expect, again, pick it on Carolina here.

01:05I think they're going to get 30 plus points tomorrow.

01:07I think Bucky Irving's going to have 100 all-purpose shots, going to get the end zone

01:10again.

01:11A guy, you know, I just want the touchdown.

01:14I know he's going to get the yards.

01:15He's better than Rashad White.

01:16Rashad White last year was sort of a fantasy darling because he was a compiler.

01:20They had nobody else there.

01:22So he caught all the passes.

01:23He got all the carries.

01:24And so he looked like he was, he's good, but he was sort of a mirage.

01:28Now you have Bucky Irving.

01:29Bucky Irving's the better player than Rashad White.

01:31I think Todd Balls, the head coach, is starting to realize that and going, hey, we got to

01:36give Bucky more and more and more carries here.

01:38I want you to ever start Bucky tomorrow over Rashad White.

01:41Nico Connells is back for the Houston Texans here.

01:43They play the hapless Jacksonville Jaguars.

01:46I know what Jaguars are coming up to buy.

01:49Do you really think they're going to be all that much better?

01:50Nico Connells is really, really good.

01:52He's the next guy we're going to be putting up there with C.D. Lambs of the world.

01:56Justin Jefferson.

01:57Jamar Chase.

01:58He's going to be that guy next year in league scoring as a top five wide receiver in fantasy.

02:03Maybe not first round, but second round.

02:05It's the only guy, C.J. Strauss, he seems to be able to hit constantly.

02:08Strauss had a very disappointing fantasy year.

02:10Connells is going off tomorrow.

02:11Over 100 yards, at least a touchdown.

02:13Went to Sparsky, gets it to the end zone twice.

02:15I think one of those touchdowns is going to be of the long variety.

02:1840 plus yards.

02:19He's going to have money on his longest reception prop tomorrow.

02:22Los Angeles Rams.

02:24Kyron Williams, when he's not fumbling the football,

02:27he did put the ball on the ground twice last week.

02:29Lost once.

02:30He's almost a touchdown machine.

02:32He catched more of the bad field.

02:33He can run there.

02:35No one's worried about him because they're worried about Nakua.

02:37They're worried about Kup and all the damage they can do.

02:40New Orleans does not have much of a defense here.

02:42They traded away what little they did have here.

02:44I think Kyron goes off tomorrow.

02:46A guy who maybe helped you get into the playoffs

02:48by winning your fantasy match up tomorrow.

02:50I'm going to be big on Kyron Williams.

02:51Just don't put the ball on the rug anymore.

02:54That's the biggest thing I'm worried about with Kyron Williams there

02:57is that he does fumble a little too much.

02:59But I like this offense here.

03:00Like I said, I like the fact that no one's worried about him

03:03because you've got to worry about Nakua.

03:04You've got to worry about Kup.

03:06My last one.

03:07I'm going to go with the squeaky wheel against the greens here.

03:09George Pickens had an interesting outing against Cleveland

03:13in that snowball game there on last Thursday night.

03:16He was open once in the end zone.

03:18Wide open.

03:19Russell Wilson missed him.

03:20Whether it was the wind, whether it was the snow,

03:22whatever missed him.

03:23Then the last play of the game, the Hail Mary,

03:24where he's getting into a fight.

03:27And that was fantastic.

03:28I think Pickens has a big game tomorrow.

03:31Once again, you're playing the Cincinnati Bengals.

03:33The no secondary Cincinnati Bengals.

03:35Points are coming tomorrow.

03:37I think 50 points are coming in this ballgame

03:39between the two teams here.

03:40I think Pickens goes off.

03:42At least 75 yards.

03:43That's probably being right.

03:44I probably think it's more of 100 yards.

03:45And he's going to get in the end zone twice tomorrow.

03:47George Pickens sort of erases what happened in the snow game

03:50that Thursday night.
