00:00Desmond Ritter is going to start for the Las Vegas Raiders, George. Ritter has 239 passing

00:11yards, one touchdown. I don't know, man. Like, I got a lot of confidence when Gardner Minshew

00:19is going to play that he's going to give me some fantasy points. Not that he's going to

00:23be great. Aiden O'Connell, actually, I think is going to be a backup for a long time in

00:27the NFL. Like, not terrible. I think Aiden O'Connell is going to survive. I don't know

00:31what to think of Desmond Ritter. He's 2% owned in fantasy. He's only going to be started

00:35for you in two quarterback leagues that are really deep. I'm going to pass here, man.

00:39I don't know. I don't like it. Oh, God, no. And this is against, they're playing an Atlanta

00:44team Monday night that can't cover anybody. All right, Sam, you and I can be running routes

00:48and we'd get open against them, but I don't know if Desmond Ritter can hit anybody. It

00:52is, I guess, a revenge game for him. You can look at it that way, but no, I'm not looking

00:57forward to starting any Raiders player other than Bowers. McCormick, all right, once again,

01:02running back and a lot of juice last week. A lot of touches, fine, but the passing game

01:06is going to be a problem. I mean, Meyers is probably going to go for a lot of teams here,

01:10but I'm not dying to do it. I'm just not, I just, I don't like Brent. He was terrible

01:13at Atlanta last year. I mean, awful. He had all those weapons, better receivers and couldn't

01:17get anything done. Right. So no, I'm going to pass. Atlanta gets right this week, Monday

01:23night.

01:24Devon Vele, a player unowned for the majority of the season, now up to 27%. He's got 45

01:30targets, 33 receptions, 377 yards and a touchdown. Feels like, George, on a week with buys, you

01:36pick them up and play them, but I'm going to say probably not this week. I think you

01:39got better options.

01:41If you need Vele this week, I mean, I don't know what to tell you, boys and girls. All

01:46right. And I said, no buys. All right. This is, when I said you may need to take chances

01:50if you had Cooper cup, I did not mean Vele. Okay. I meant players still better than him.

01:55Now you're not studying Bailey this week.

01:58Now we clown so much last week, talking about sincere McCormick, that if we actually had

02:03to play this guy, it would be a disaster. And now we're not only talking about playing

02:08them, but he's the hottest pickup off the waiver wire this week, 175 yards folks. This

02:13is only in like two games. Amir Abdul is an afterthought. I know Alexander Madison is

02:18back I think this week, but I don't know. I think McCormick is a must start fantasy.

02:27I don't know about must start once again, no buys. You might have two better backs,

02:30but I joked with the Craig and I said, well, I wasn't joking. I texted Craig, I think Sunday

02:33morning. I, I claimed him and I started, I had to, I had, okay. It goes. Kenneth Walker

02:38was out and that screwed me. I didn't have anybody else. Cause I had Brian Robinson.

02:41So I took it. I'll take my 10 points. He had last week. I was thrilled with that. Give

02:45me double digits. Could have got to the end zone would have me 16. I would, we're both

02:49off, off the wall with that. It would be great here. So yes, McCormick said, I'll pick up

02:52and you can start him this week.
