00:00All right, Fantasy Waver Wire, let's get into it.

00:03I went a little bit different, maybe, than most would here,

00:07and I did go back to the Dolphins.

00:08Imagine, Jonu Smith had a better year than Tyreek Hill.

00:12This is true.

00:1488, what?

00:16Is that right?

00:1788 receptions for Jonu Smith?

00:20884 yards and eight touchdowns?

00:22There may be some folks that said,

00:24well, I took Jonu Smith as my tight end two

00:28in the 14th round this year in fantasy.

00:30And if you did, here's my question.

00:32Did you have him after week one?

00:34Did you have him after week two?

00:36I don't think so, because he didn't come on

00:39until about week four, week five.

00:42And then outside of Brock Bowers, George,

00:44he was the best tight end in fantasy football.

00:46So to me, he was my waver wire.

00:48Not me personally, because I didn't believe it.

00:50I didn't take him.

00:51I didn't pick him up.

00:52But he was a big waver wire win, a rare tight end,

00:55overperforming.

00:58That's a great pick, by the way.

00:59Jonu Smith is a great pick for this guy.

01:01He was fantastic.

01:03A guy who could be a league winner,

01:04because he was hot during the playoffs.

01:06He's catching touchdowns.

01:07He was great.

01:08He's going to be a problem next year.

01:09Way to draft him, by the way.

01:10Is he a top 10?

01:11Is he a top eight?

01:12You know, that sort of thing?

01:14Is he your next LaPorter?

01:18I like your pick better than I like mine.

01:20I love Berkey or Bucky Irby.

01:21I chose Bucky Irby because he wasn't a starting running back

01:23in week one.

01:24Now, all these guys might have been drafted.

01:25You mentioned, yeah, someone might have had Jonu Smith.

01:27I don't know any league where Jonu Smith was drafted,

01:30all right, offhand.

01:30It was someone who might have taken a round 14.

01:32Irving probably was taken in most leagues as the backup.

01:35We take every running back with a pulse nowadays.

01:38At least I know I do.

01:39I said I had Dobbins in a couple of leagues because he had a

01:41pulse and I was taking him.

01:43So, I would have liked to talk about Irving more if you

01:47didn't already select him yet.

01:48Because I think he had a great year.

01:49I think he is a guy, I said earlier, you said earlier,

01:51you think he might be a first, second round running back.

01:53That's what I agree.

01:54Probably was second round for me because I think a lot of

01:56wide receivers are going in leagues here.

01:58But Irving was fantastic, especially with Mike Evans,

02:01with Mayfield, Godwin if he's back.

02:03No one's worried about that rushing game.

02:06All right, everyone's worried about stopping Evans.

02:08So, good for Bucky Irving for making his mark.
