00:00Here we go, Joe. It's time for the running back position. Saquon Barkley starts at 9,100.

00:07I'll leave it in your lap from there. Let's go. Next segment. We come back and talk about

00:12gingerbread, uh, Saquon Barkley at the top 9,187 for B. John Robinson to get chase Brown

00:19at 82. So look, these are the high price guys. Look, Barkley's got a pretty good matchup

00:25here against Washington in division matchup. So, you know, we typically like those, uh,

00:29it's in Washington. I don't really fear the commander's defense all that much, even though

00:32they are improved. It'll be interesting to see what commander's team shows up today because

00:38I don't think this is the same commander's team that necessarily the Eagles saw a few

00:43weeks back. Uh, and vice versa too. I think this Eagles defense is a little bit better

00:47and playing better as well. So that should be an intriguing matchup. B. John, you imagine

00:51is going to get a lot of work today, but we just don't know what Pennix is going to do.

00:56Are we going to see a lot of dump offs to B. John or we can see a lot of just B. John

01:00period in this game against the giants probably. So it's a fine investment, but 8,200, I think

01:05what's interesting to me is chase Brown, because the one thing you've seen with chase Brown

01:08is he's getting that all purpose work too. He's catching the football a lot. He's been

01:11very consistent there. Um, T Higgins has not been healthy this week. So I think, you know,

01:17when you're looking at matchups, you're looking at situations, you're looking at the three

01:20down back. I think chase Brown is that sweet spot of value. That's going to save you about

01:25a thousand dollars from Barkley. And that's a big discount. Rico Dowdle has a good matchup

01:30to some of the guys bell cow in this weekend. And it's, it's an almost like a bi-week today,

01:36right? Because you had three games happen already. You got another game happening tomorrow.

01:41So basically it's like a bunch of teams are on a buy. So it's a really interesting week

01:45and a lot less choices, especially with all the injuries we've had at running back over

01:50the last week and a half or so to be Harvard at 7,100. I would look for a bounce back from

01:55him today against the Arizona Cardinals and Rashad white and Bucky Irving and other two

02:00guys too, that I'd be looking for. I think either of those guys are going to get a lot

02:03of work. Bucky Irving, especially has been really good. Rashad white, seven K it will

02:06get some more receptions. Uh, both will get some goal line work too, which you've seen

02:10just in different ways that offense runs. However, uh, don't discount either of them.

02:15I think both are very useful when I play them both in the same lineup, probably not, especially

02:20the concept of Mike Evans, you know, being that guy that's going to get the football ton today,

02:25which we talked about earlier and all the reasons why. So maybe just pick one, do a lineup with

02:31Irving and Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans, and then flip it around to, and put Rashad white

02:35and do another one that way. So a couple of different approaches there with that backfield,

02:38but that's the running back slate in a nutshell to not a lot of deep guys in terms of players

02:44that are in that six or even 5,000 that we want to stream this week. Just, you might have to get

02:48to that cushy middle for running back and DFS for week 16.
