Transcript

00:00uh fantasy football mvps I think we both have really good choices here uh you know I I went

00:06with running back because I just still think that if you have a number one running back in fantasy

00:12football I'm not saying to draft one at the top I'm saying if it ends up being that you got the

00:16top guy you probably went for uh Saquon Barkley 2,000 yards that's a big number still in this day

00:22and age of fantasy 2,000 rushing yards on the season only 33 receptions maybe that's the one

00:29thing that you look at a guy like Gibbs who had 20 touchdowns and a lot more receptions you can

00:33make the case you'd rather have Gibbs but Barkley was Mr. Consistent 15 touchdowns on the season

00:40and he reinvented his career he was not somebody that I even considered taking this season George

00:48just because I didn't know what it would be I mean when a guy is not as good as he looked early on

00:53his career and he's a running back you don't know when they turn 28 29 what they're going to be in

00:57the future clearly Barkley's at the top of his game and by the way who stopped Barkley all season

01:02long no one well the Eagles stopped Barkley right well they didn't play in week 18 to go for the

01:08record they stopped Barkley uh he would have got uh listen if they would have played him

01:13those two giant games killed him because remember he took himself out the fourth quarter of the

01:16first giant game when he was rushing like nine million yards right you played against those

01:20games he would have had the record here uh no problem with the Barkley pick love uh the season

01:24he had here I chose Jamar Chase mainly because I remember the reason I didn't take him in a league

01:28or two remember the contract squabble that was going on right before the season started right

01:33during draft time right all right so that and he had to put up the points he did because I stayed

01:37away from him Craig for that reason I'm like what if he does hold out a week or two to try and uh

01:42make a statement here all right I'll go we'll take Jefferson or we'll take uh C.D. Lamb so I

01:46stayed away from him uh so Jamar Chase fantastic yeah I have no problem with the Barkley selection

01:50they're both great I almost went off the board here Craig because depending on how your definition

01:55is these guys did what I thought they were going to do if Hubbard would have played week 17 I would

02:01have chosen Joe Hubbard for this award that's how good he was but since he missed week 17 missed

02:05your finals I couldn't quite put him in there yeah I mean that's a staggering number of targets

02:11175 targets for Jamar Chase on a team that has Tee Higgins like I'm not saying Tee Higgins is

02:20the best thing ever but still like 175 targets and he got me to the fantasy football playoffs

02:27definitely the case and was good in every single week every single round as well
